If you had to make a choice, $8 million a year for a 36 year old MLB who's been a rock for this team on an off the field for the past several years but probably wouldn't see the end of his contract or $11 million a year for a 29 year old WR who's arguably the best on the market but is one suspension away from being out for a year...which would you choose?

Boy I don't even like the question. Damnit. I'd rather the NFL not do some stupid shit and penalize our cap when they shouldn't so we can just have both.

Fletch...the leadership is invaluable...and we can find a WR somewhere else. I think our new QB is going to make our WRs look better.

Fletcher, assuming that, for all intents and purposes, nothing was garaunted after next year (meaning we could realease him in 2014 without taking a hit). Given we have 18MM less in cap space that we did yesterday, Jacksons got too many red flags for that kind of investment.

You sign Fletcher and then Josh Morgan.

I wouldn't mind this. Sounds like we're not going to have enough room to go after V.Jax and Fletch, so I wouldn't mind taking a younger guy at wideout and giving him a shot. I think RG3 is the kind of player that makes everyone around him better.

Fletcher, with no hesitation. Character is essential to building a strong team; it's infectious and leaves in its wake a winning attitude. Talent without character is counterproductive to winning in the NFL.
