I have no interest in Higgins. I don't want to spend big on a WR. The idea of trading for him makes it even less attractive for me.

In that market for me: Slayton, Elijah Moore, Hopkins assuming all are cheap. Deebo am guessing gets released but not sure how much he has left or what type of contract he wants.

I used to love the idea of Godwin but no more with the 25 million or so projection.
Agree on Higgins and Deebo. Those other 3 are good WR's and Slayton has been suggested by numerous sources. Are they any better a WR3? Perhaps with JD they would flourish and they are better than some of the current WR's on our roster so they would improve the Corp, just not to the level most of us would like. We will need to watch who shows up as a cap causality over the next few weeks.
I think a giant WR is question, do they believe in Dyami and feel he is worth the $?

I'll stick with Slayton to make a point. He ran a sub 4.4. Dyami didn't. I keep hearing how Dyami is this speedster-deep ball specialist. And while he was that in college, in the pros mid 4.4 speed is good speed not great speed. In the context of this team its great but its nothing special. And he has some flashes with the deep ball but nothing even remotely serious.

Dyami's career year was this year with just over 300 yards. Slayton's worst season beat that -- and I think if I recall he was hurt that year. Topped 700 yards 4 seasons. He's a true deep threat. Some sick YPC numbers. Imagine him with Daniels throwing him the ball instead of Daniel Jones? Also, he's a good locker room type, was the Giants Walter Payton Man of the Year.

Is Slayton a true #2? probably not but I don't care. I am fine with the WR by committee #2 operation. Among other things it ensures depth.

Higgins and Godwin likely to resign with their teams.

Salary cap going up to 277.5 to 281.5. That’s up from 255.4 this year.

Yeah Slayton has always been steady and I trust him over Dyami. Amazingly they could be looking at similar contracts mainly due to Dyami's last few final decent games. Since we may be able to bring in a real legit top #2, maybe a Slayton and a Moore or Hopkins would make big differences along with a new RB and OL upgrades
