Not saying he's going to be amazing, but speed and age aren't the only way a person can get separation. Tony Gonzalez at the end of his career was slow as hell, but still could churn out 80/850/8 seasons pretty much at will even at the age of 36. Why? Routes, hands, and fighting for contested catches. All three of those age really really well.
They age well, but they still age. No need to take a chance on a guy that age who could be washed up.
