Damn dude, you have some serious baseless hate for Lafell man.

Jeremy Kerley's best season was 827 yards and 2 TDs, and that was in 2012.
He's never had more than 667 yards in a season besides that.
He's never had more than 3 TDs in a season.
Brandon LaFell has surpassed Kerley's best season twice (953 yds in 2014, 862 yds in 2016).
He's also had another season of greater than 667 yards (677 yds in 2012).
Brandon LaFell has had 4+ TDs in four of his seven seasons.
You can't even use the argument that Kerley is faster than LaFell. In fact, he had a worse 40 time than LaFell (4.56 vs 4.54).
The Bengals don't need another slot receiver. They need outside WR to keep Boyd mostly in the slot.
Plus last year was Lafell's first year in a new system with a new QB. Dude played really well for us.
I would not be against adding a true threat on the otherside of Green but first things first...
Dalton needs time and we need holes in the running game.
