Terrelle Pryor

[*SHRacerX*]

I have suggested in several other threads that the Bengals try to sign Terrelle Pryor as a FA in the offseason. Some people have shown moderate agreement while others will quickly call me an OSU homer. I am a fan of the Buckeyes, but it doesn't come CLOSE to my love for the Bengals. I would draft 100% Michigan players if I was told it would help us win a Super Bowl. And, I want Michigan's coach, but that is another subject entirely.

Here are a few positives to Pryor for the Bengals:

Pryor is the only WR in the NFL that is 6'5" or taller than ran a legitimate 4.38 in the 40 yard dash. Vertical speed and length are something the Bengals are lacking opposite AJ Green.

Pryor would likely command even more money in an NFL contract if he had been playing WR for his entire career.

He hasn't taken as many hits as your average four-year player in the NFL.

He is from the Pennsylvania area, and would likely prefer to stay close to home.

Here are his stats through 11 games this season:

62 receptions 855 yards (13.8 YPC), 4 TDs

Here is AJ Green's numbers from his rookie season(16 games):

65 receptions 1057 yards(16.2 YPC), 7 TD

Despite not having any stability at the QB position, not much of an offensive line to allow him time to get downfield, and only playing in 11 games....you get the picture.

This offense desperately needs a vertical threat to go with AJ, Boyd (slot), and Eifert. I think that player should by Pryor.
