I don't care who you are, that sucks....

Similar to CJ Spiller (right system, better results) - if you pair Greg Jennings (who's already a premier route runner) with an elite QB (similar to Favre & Rodgers) you get better results.

HE might get better results, but WE as a team can get the kind of production he would likely provide from what's already in house.

Jennings was clearly on the way down before he left Green Bay. You can't use the excuse of different offense on that one. I'm not insulting the guy, I'm simply calling it as I see it. He got hurt toward the end of his tenure with the Packers and when he came back he still looked beat up, and STILL looks that way to me.

If we sign him, I'm sure it won't be for much so I don't view it as a risk, per se, but I'm also not excited by it.

Spiller is about 7-8 years younger, I believe. Not even a comparison there.

	If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
