As for $7 million, the following receivers are set to make $7 million in 2016:
Torrey Smith
Andre Johnson
Kendall Wright
Michael Floyd
Golden Tate
Every one of those guys had a better track record than Marvin Jones when they signed their contract. Jones is overvaluing himself.
I can see it. Jones put up similar numbers outside of TDs, but Crabtree had a third more targets. He's an upgrade and they don't have anything beyond Crabtree and Cooper. They want Carr to be the franchise — and they're doing good pairing him early with Cooper — but they've got to give him some other receivers. Especially since their running game is hit and miss, you need a consistent passing game to have something to rely on.
