McGowan Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 So let's assume Robinson has to walk, or gets franchised and traded. Who would you pick up for a replacement? Ideally I'd like Golladay but he'd cost about as much as Robinson. Another idea is Sammy Watkins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watkins is a no - Golliday is good and if the Bears made a run at Stafford I wouldn't mind that move. But you are right in sense Golliday has gotten hurt. Maybe getting with Bears training staff would help. Feels like Lions have seen there fair share of injuries and I wonder if they aren't using as modern medical science, etc. Not saying the Bears are a best in class organization at all levels - but part of what Pace has done well is really made significant investments in the analytics and sports science departments and obviously helped drive a massive effort to give the Bears a world class training facility. But Watkins - even when he hasn't been hurt - he has never been the player everyone expected him to be coming out of college. He's always been paid on that hype and potential and at this point in your career - when you don't have the production, no thanks. Golliday is still pretty young too - and has Chicago roots - so could be a nice play. Not sure how different $ will be between him and Robinson - but either way - if Robinson doesn't want to be here, you transition tag or franchise Robinson to move him and make your play at Golliday (problem is Golliday probably doesn't stay on the market fast enough to let you make a move on Robinson). And if you look at Golliday - last year he was hurt - the 2 years prior he played and started 31 out of 32 games. I also think Golliday is a way better fit for the offense Nagy wants to run - in the sense that he has always appeared to be far more explosive of a wideout than Robinson (who is skill wise - is fantastic - but fear factor - he isn't going to take it over the top and isn't as much of a homerun threat). His rookie season he played 11 and started 5 - maybe some of that was due to injury? But I presume more was due to being a 3rd round rookie who slowly got playing time.

jason Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 Go-Go Golladay would be fine with me. I wanted him the year he was drafted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinger226 Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 For the money we are going to have to pay for a Golladay, we would franchise AROB. The only other good WR out there that is young is Corey Davis and he will command to much money. Marvin Jones, A J Green, Watson, Hilton, are either to old or not a good injury history. We will have to go with a secondary player with some upside but our best option is AROB on a tag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Golliday when healthy. I drafted him for my FFL this year and he hosed me all season. If we sign him to be a #1, count on us drafting another WR very early.
