I think Thielen is declining in speed and production. Anywhere he goes he may be looking at #3 or a depth player.

I love Thielen... if he'd be willing to accept the Tyler Boyd role or 4th WR he'd be perfect for this offense.

I think that I mentioned in another thread that I'd take Thielen off of the bench, any game of the year.  Meaning, I agree that he's lost a step, and likely more susceptible to injuries and such, but as a package/spell player I think he would be fantastic depth.  The question is "Is he ready to take a back seat role?".

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations

Oh no, they'll probably throw the world at Tee if he makes it to FA.

Nice try. 14 tds in 2020, 10tds in 2021 and 6tds in 2022. That’s declining. But yeah, he’s opposite Jefferson which is tough to get the production.

I agree he's declining but if he signed a reasonable deal to be the 4th WR I'd roll with it. When people say "ring chasers" I think they wrongly assume it means a star player in his prime will sign with a contending squad. I think it's more practical to look for veterans who, although not their former star-self, can still contribute to success. Those are the "ring chasers" you're more likely to attract and sign.

I don't see that as decline , I see it as still productive especially with Jerfferson, he will be a nice signing for someone
