LELIE IN DEMAND

One of the first free agents to hit the road will be receiver Ashley Lelie. Per a league source, Lelie will visit the Texans on Friday and the Vikings on Monday.

Lelie was a first-round selection of the Broncos in 2002. He was traded to the Falcons last year.

His best season came in 2004, when he had 54 receptions for 1,084 yards and seven touchdowns.

Nooooo!!!!!!

I have a funny feeling we are going to land this bronco, uh I mean player.

The Moulds release is starting to become alot clearer.

ThaShark316 · 03-01-2007

Well..he IS fast...and a bronco...err um, free agent.

**Vinny** · 03-01-2007

good lord Lelie sucks...oye

Will someone please tell Kubiak and Sherman that we don't have to sign all the second hand Packers and Broncos?

ThaShark316 · 03-01-2007

Ted Ginn before Ginn = Lelie...no hands, bad route runner and a straight up....

^^^im sure some of you understood that.

I haven't come across the Ahman Green visit yet.

**infantrycak** · 03-01-2007

Well I am going to disagree on the anti-Lelie sentiment (with a big caveat on price--only if cheap)--one way to clear coverage off AJ is to have a true deep threat on the opposite side with a QB willing to throw the ball to his 2nd WR.

Marcus · 03-01-2007

After what happened with Moulds, you gotta wonder what receiver in his right mind would want to play with the this team.

keyfro · 03-01-2007

i don't like this guy either...let's hope he visits and keeps on going

He's another version of Cory Bradford to me.

I think you give NFL players to much credit, you'd be suprised where you would work if you got their paychecks. Now if this were Oakland, that would be a different story

I see the analogy, but he is a much better Bradford--and notice the QB comment as well.

bATXle red · 03-01-2007

I can't help but remember the Broncos thinking they had a pretty weak recieving core when Lelie was aboard. Javon Walker got signed and Lelie was worried he woudn't start, so he started to complain. the Texans don't need that mess.

The Houston Texans. Where WR2's go to die.

TexanFan881 · 03-01-2007

Lelie is better than Walter is as a #2 WR, if we are looking at someone with speed I'd rather get Curtis, but I guess I wouldn't be that upset if we got Lelie to be our #2, he is still young and might not have reached his full potential yet. I only want to sign him though if it is a reasonable contract, no huge contract for a guy like Lelie.

Haha, wouldn't that be something. just think if that trade-rumor had gone through and we got Tatum Bell too.

Plummer play-action to bell, throws a TD to Lelie.

Would Lelie be that bad of an addition? I would hope we'd get him for a decent price, not overspend but is he THAT bad?
