Played over 10 games a season once in 4 years and only two 16 game seasons ever.
Too expensive and injury prone.

It's so unfortunate that Rice has had such an injury riddled career. He has some of the best hands and footwork I've ever seen. If we're interested in a 1 year prove it deal for the vets minimum(obviously with incentives), I wouldn't mind kicking the tires on him.

Id go with vet minimum as you say.Talk that Seattle wamt him back on less than he was earning.

The guy has good hands and size, I just don't trust his health. Plus, I still think there are a lot of good players at the wr position in the draft. If we do sign him, I would prefer to do so after the draft.

Isn't the Draft loaded with quality receivers?

The question the Saints could be asking is Meachem or Rice?

Was a flat out baller during his Viking days but as of recent years not so much. As others have stated, way too injury prone.

Pass.

We had a ton of money sitting on IR last year- not sure sure the risk is worth the reward with all of the other options out there.
