What other FA WR could we get?

If anyone watches Cordarrelle Patterson run with the ball in the open field they will usually think he could be a star in the NFL.  It seems like with his vision, balance, size, and speed he could be a dangerous offensive weapon just running screens and jet sweeps.  But it has never worked out yet.

Patterson holds the NFL career record for kickoff return tds (8) and his career average (29.8) is second only to Gayle Sayers (30.6).  That is pretty amazing for a guy who weighs over 230 lbs. But for some reason he has never been a big offensive weapon.  He had 469 receiving yards his rookie season, but that is his career high.  In the 7 seasons since then he has averaged 24 catches for 231 yards. 

The Bears used him more as a RB last year (64 carries) and the one year he played for the Patriots he had twice as many carries (42) as he did receptions (21).  So there are lots of ways to get the ball in his hands.

I watched Patterson play for Tennessee in college.  He is a freak talent.  I have always been expecting him to have a big breakout offensive season, but after 8 years with 4 different teams I don't think it is going to happen.  However I would still love to have him in stripes as a #3 WR and kick returner.
