I want to believe DVP is the #1 receiver he's meant to be. But he can't stay healthy and we can't depend on him down the stretch. Juice Landry is clearly this team's best offensive weapon. He's in a contract year and he's earning a huge pay day, if not from the Phins, someone else. I love this interview with Peter Schrager. http://www.sportingnews.com/ca/nfl/...-stop-doubting-us!/1qzun5i7losy21ckvc8mw7z1un PAY THIS MAN!!!
I love Landry as well but I'm not sure he's our best offensive weapon anymore- Stills absolutely went off yesterday with some Devante Parker moments of his own. It's a good problem to have though when you can't decide who your #1, #2, and #3 WR's are supposed to be.
I really like Parker, but he has health issues from the get go. We overpaid many players on this team, hence the cap problem we have now. I was against signing Landry for big money but, he is a very good WR and did very well yesterday against the jesters. I believe at this point with Parker's inability to stay healthy we need to sign Landry, he's very good....
He should get paid, but not whatever he wants, 10-12 mil per year seems fair for one of the best slot receivers in the league.
That's actually a pretty good comparison, except that Welker didn't have Landry's strength and agility for after the catch yardage. I think I'd say that Welker was better but it's a pretty darn close race. Welker ran much better routes and his football IQ was off the charts. Landry just has that passion to never give up...they're two completely different players that just happen to have elite hands.
I think Welker is the gold standard for slot receivers. Personally I think Landry is more then just a slot guy. And I think he is way more of a leader. I would pay him more then just a slot guy.
I think he should be paid... But I feel like he's not the same dude as last season. Plus it looks like Matt Moore loves Kenny Stills.
welker had super quicks and reactionary time..he was a great footbll player and worthy of half fame talk...changed the game. at the beginning of the year I had juice at 5 for 60 mill...Im willing to up my offer to 5 for 62.5
I think he loses his effectiveness the farther away from the los he gets, bottom line he's an easier cover on the outside.
Just looking at contracts out there ... maybe something along the lines of a Mo Sanu or a Golden Tate. Similar important but somewhat limited pieces. I just find it hard to see us break the bank for Landry after doing so for Stills. The question may be ... do we pay for a premium OL talent or lock that money into Landry.
I think if he wants to be here he'll take a friendly deal. If his main priority is money I think you let him walk. You can't tie up that much money in a slot wr.
Parker is a sheetshow. Seems very Yatil Green-y to me. Can't stay healthy and when he is out there nothing special. We need to trade him while he still has a name. Yes, pay Juice. It's ridiculous that it's gone this far. He is our best player on offense clearly if not on the entire team. Pay him whatever he wants and just move on.
