Few, if any, teams want a #4 wr who can't cover kicks or contribute in some way on special teams. It's the biggest reason why Jerry Rice couldn't keep playing until he was 57. Thrash's staying power has always been his ST ability. Early in is career he wasn't the 3 or 4 best wr on the team (though I think he is now) but his punt and KO coverage skills were extremely valuable. KM is no longer a true #1 or #2. IMO, as good as Thrash and Espy are on ST we can afford a #4 receiver who plays in specific packages and catches a few balls a game. He started his career with a SB ring w/ the Skins, let him finish it with another next year.
