Kenny Britt might come cheap. Think he has reclamation potential here? And he could likely keep #18.

negetive story on him but the Eagles seemed to let it go ...
6 3, 220, 4.5 40, almost 18ypc. if he's half as threatening in the red zone as he is at concerts I'd let him come play for a cheapish deal.

or we can sign Britt for a quarter of the price and twice the potential
Same height/weight, all of britts athletic measurables are better, they've played/started nearly the identical number of games, yet Britts stats DWARFS Coopers, oh and Britts OVER a year younger.
This guy can be gotten for pennies, due to issues with coaches and whatnot, which carroll and the other wr's will make sure wouldn't be an issue.
Quote me now when I say Britt could go down as one of the steals of the offseason.

None of those free agent guys have an unreal skill set.
Next year...Harvin, Baldwin (restricted but they don't get signed away anymore), Kearse, Lockette, and I believe Rice will be back on a massive pay cut.
Add a late round pick and be done with it.
If Tate resigns that is GRAVY!!

I'm Pretty sure most of that is not even true. I doubt either will command big contacts, Britts reason for being cheap isn't as close to as controversial as coopers.. Therefore if anything Cooper would be cheaper by that logic.
Britt is much more injury prone, and I would not be surprised if he's Not the same athlete you think you remember although that I'm not positive on. What I do know is he hasn't finished an entire season in 5 years and Cooper didn't miss any last season.
Dwarfs his stats?...., not even close. Coopers been stuck behind 2 first round picks. Britt has never had a 1000 yard season. Nobody's even close to out paying either Enough to make a statement like that.
And to those saying we should just Draft, I totally agree, but I have to waste the off season discussing something. Plus even if we Draft a wr and cut rice, what if tate goes too, we might need one of these guys on a short deal.

His 850 yards in only 47 catches with 8 TD's says otherwise.

Not sure what the 9ers are offering, but could Boldin be had on a 1 year deal at $4-5M?

Interesting idea. Boldin is the type of player that we need, dependable big body.
But my guess is he's in the same boat as Bennett, took a cheaper one year deal on a contender, performed and now wants a longer deal.
