Coming off a surgery shortened year. Wonder if he could be had on a 1-year prove it type deal. He put up 80/1,027/12 in 2015.
RE: Eric Decker - Millhouse - 06-07-2017
He would be the 2nd best receiver on the team if signed. But he wont be because they already got LaFell

We aren't signing another WR unless AJ gets hurt before the season starts... We just draft a 1st Rounder this year.... If we had missed WR in this draft I'm sure they be looking
Any wishful thinking will be just that.

Haven't seen the $, but it probably isn't a ton.
Shame the Bengals immediately settled for LaFell. There were a lot of good affordable WR choices in this FA period that I liked a lot more.

It seems you undervalue what Lafell did for this team last year and overvaliue some of these so called affordable FA receivers. I believe the Bengals did exactly what they should have done

Looks like a team friendly deal. $5.35M max value. 2.5M signing bonus, 1.35M salary, 1.5M in potential incentives.

Well, before we drafted guys like John Ross and Josh Malone, Decker would have been a welcome upgrade to our WR corps. In my opinion, it seems like the Jets did Decker dirty by holding onto him until this point. He likely could have gotten a much better deal for himself, had he been available during the high activity portion of free agency. When he's healthy, dudes guaranteed stats. I had him on my fantasy team in '15, even with Fitzpatrick at QB, he had really nice numbers.
RE: Eric Decker - Essex Johnson - 06-25-2017
My opinion Decker was never on Bengals radar..
1st: Lafell had a solid season played hurt... was a total professional... Bengals wanted him back and signed a fair early contract
2nd: If Decker was released early.. he probably would have wanted more $$.. Bengals would have passed anyway
3rd: Bengals wanted to add speed to this lineup... Decker did not add that.
RE: Eric Decker - Brownshoe - 08-07-2017
I don't think we need anymore WRs right now. If it was last year I would have been all for picking him up.
RE: Eric Decker - WhoDeyLeisure - 01-04-2018
We have a guy named John Ross...
