There is a reason the Bengals were willing to pay him big time money to stay here. I think Lafell's expectations should be more in line with replacing Sanu on this team. He would come in as a quality #3 that could step up as a #2 if needed. We still need to find a solid #2 WR somewhere in the first two rounds of the draft. Once again none of this is a knock on Lafell because he would be a very good signing for us.

Lafell isn't that much slower than Jones, and he's only 2 years older. Lafell wouldn't be that much of a drop off. He is a lot less injury prone too. He had a lower drop % than Eifert last year too. He's a lot better than what people are giving him credit for.
