A good offense can make any player fit in their system, and when LaFell has proven that he's statistically better than Jones it's easy to fit him in the system. Obviously the Bengals think that LaFell fits just fine in the system, otherwise they wouldn't have signed him. Yes, LaFell would have been given a similar deal as Jones or Sanu (maybe even more) if he was on the market when teams still had free agency money in their coffers.
Boyd would probably have better stats than Sanu if he was in Sanu's circumstances. For one, I know that Boyd wouldn't have even close to the drop rate as Sanu did that year (the highest drop % in the league with at least 50 receptions). With a Green out there just as a decoy, and the run gaming going off like it did would make it easy for any receiver to do that.
Lafell needs a new agent and the Bengals made out like bandits! You sir, are so blind.
