I think that is exactly what he's saying, Gibbs doesn't want to pay an arm and a leg for a receiver. Muhammed is asking for a signing bonus over $10 million, and Plax would command a tidy sum as well. Trying to crunch them into our salary cap situation would create holes in other positions, it's just not worth it. Kevin Johnson seems alright to me, but I'm not sure how much of an upgrade he is on James Thrash or Taylor Jacobs. Jacobs, in my opinion, could do some damage if given a chance. I'd like him in the 3rd receiver role though. I'd love to see David Patten as a Redskin. He's hard working, humble, doesn't piss & moan, and he makes key plays when you need him to. He'd be a nice complement to Coles, and he'd be affordable under our salary cap.

I don't know what to think about Porter. He reminds me of Michael Westbrook to be honest, lots of ability and shows flashes of brilliance, but they don't come any more inconsistent.

I believe TJ Houshmandzedeh from the Bengals is available. I wouldn't mind seeing him in burgundy & gold either.
