Colston, Henderson and moore will take this guy under there wing and teach him everything they have learnt playing WR, I have a feeling Toon will be making an big impact sooner rather than later

Gaffney is a 4th, at best or a fifth WR. I have seen him play for years in NE. he is another mechem, tease all the way. not sure if it is playbook issues or just a ball player that is good enough to hang around and make a living at football. one year deal would work but i am not looking for a break out season at 31

Im thinking Adrian Arrington. He's ready to take on a bigger role, and has played solid. 11.3 yards average in 2010, and 15.5 in 2011. He knows the system, and I would play him as a coach in Meachems spot just to know where he stands in the ball club.
Playing Toon like they have been using Arrington in the past makes sense, as Colstons 2nd.
If Arrington can't hack it, and Toon starts to shine, well then it obvious what to do.

I think Arrington is a free agent, and we haven't offered him a new deal?

Yeah he was signed. I had to look it up because I could not remember either.

If that makes you feel old, check out the birth dates of the guys we drafted.

^ This. It was the time of year when promising young players get put on IR for having a hangnail or for accidentally stubbing their toe in the dark in the film room, so they can be squirreled away for next year. Old NFL trick.
