Has the ship already sailed on a trade for Roy Williams? He's probably the closest to a sure thing that we can get this FA period at WR.
I didn't know there was ever a ship for a Roy Williams trade to DC? Where are you getting that from, I believe that (rumor) get put out right after it started.
I certainly doubt that's the closest to a sure thing we can get in the FA market for a WR, probably the most unlikely from certain.

Boldin (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/6390/gamelog;_ylt=ApOtbOsXOrv1Pe6Lza8mOr7.uLYF) missed 4 starts, Fitzgerald (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/6762/gamelog;_ylt=ApOtbOsXOrv1Pe6Lza8mOr7.uLYF) missed 1 start.
Both of them battled nagging injuries all year.
Boldin didn't put up 1400 yards, try 853.
Lol, I realized that after I posted it. :D I tried to change it but you probably have access to all my edits. Thats what I get for trying to sound like a know-it-all

I would go with bryant for the reason the DJ cannot stay healthy. what the heck if this guy knows the system but cannot step on the field. we don't what another player to fill our IR room like last year. I think he has only been hurt once

He had a high ankle sprain last year which made him miss significant time. Other then that he's only missed a game here and there. Pretty good track record for a WR

He's been hurt each of his 3 seasons. Although his first two seasons they were just small nagging injuries.

New coach same old personnel philosophy, here we are making a big deal about 2 WR's who are nothing special, did we learn nothing from the Brandon Lloyd signing? I find it hard to believe we can't find a WR in the draft to at least come close to the talent level of these NFL giants? I guess Anthony Mix is nothing more than a special teams guy.
Hackett is an average WR in a very good offensive scheme, the west coast offense has made average WR's look good, and very good WR's look great. But at last we have to have this guy, why? Because Vinny and co. couldnt spot a talented player beyond the top 10 of the draft if their lives depended on it!

No one is saying we have to have this guy. And as for your last sentence about Vinny and co. not being able to spot a talented player beyond the top 10, several of us have pointed out enough times the complete fallacy in that statement that it doesn't need to be repeated.
