By many reports MJ was THE premium FA WR on the market and he walked so now many want to pay similar money to someone who isn't as good, doesn't know the playbook and may very well be washed up..
Of course you can always keep thinking that these guys are all willing to play for vet minimum, but they all have agents who aren't willing to take the hit themselves. It was true in Paul Brown's day and it's still true today that football is and always will be a young man's game.
You mean he used to know the playbook.
He knew Hue Jackson's playbook which they can't continue to use because that would mean that the HC of a division rival would know your offense inside and out.
Can't imagine he knows Ken Zampese's playbook seeing as how they wouldn't give it to a FA. (Assuming Zampese has one already.)
