Good, he needs to get out of Minn bad. I pray he ends up in New England, though I hate the patriots personally. It would be a great fit for him though, and Brady would certainly show him the love like he did with Moss.

I'm actually thankful I don't have to pull for the vikings anymore! I heard the chargers are the best fit the other day! I would love for him to come home to the panthers but I'm not sure that would help his career!!!

Nice! He and AP need to get out of Minnesota. Without a legit QB they will continue to come up short. He needs to go to ATL and win a couple of rings.

Actually ATL would be a VERY bad fit for him. They already have a good WR corps headed by Roddy. He needs to go a team where he can be the #1 as soon as he signs. Like NE, SD, Indy and maybe a couple of others.

Future Chicago Bear. We need a big target receiver.

Ehhh, I know you won't like me saying this but while they need a bigtime WR, it would be a bad move for Sidney. Cutler is a loose cannon with attitude problems. He needs a good QB with a good head on his shoulders. Cutler is a liability for Rice IMO.

I disagree. Larry and Anquan worked out pretty well together; Wayne and Harrison were OK, I guess...
I just think ATL needs one more offensive threat, and they need to build the defense through the draft.

Yeah but those two WR combos you listed played for teams with little to no running game. Atl has a good running game. Atl is very balanced on offense with Roddy, Turner and Gonzalez. They really don't need much else star wise, IMO.

and that's why he should come to Chicago and play for the Bears. I would love for them to have an actual receiver

Can't believe nobody has said it yet, but obviously the Panthers would be a good fit, he would compliment Steve Smith perfectly (M. Muhammed 2.0). He would help whoever would be playing QB (Clausen, Newton, Gabbert) next year immensely and he would be playing with 3 other USC players.

Cutler actually had a pretty decent season with no go-to target this year. I want to see what he can do with a couple of weapons before I give up on him. Sidney would come down with a lot of those 50/50 balls that Cutler is so fond of throwing.

Just a guess here guys, he is going to whoever pays him the most money. Oakland Raiders included.

...and with HOF QBs. Just high hopes, I suppose. Either way, it would be nice to see him on a contender. Unfortunately, I think stevecook might be right...

I think the real issue for Sidney is guaranteed money. With this contract he can set himself up for life.
I am sure he wants to win a champoinship, but he did go out early to take care of his family. That can be done once and for all this time around.
I wish him nothing but the best.

Yep. This could be his only big pay day and he will cash in. Not many players get to a third contact.

I think it makes great sense for Chicago, I can't disagree with you there. But from Sidney's standpoint I think he could do a lot better. And let's face it, he can be the best WR in the NFL if he is in the right situation. IMO, Chicago isn't the best for him.

As for the HOF QBs that is what I am suggesting. Brady, Rivers(ok maybe not hall of fame but he is really good) and I mentioned Indy so Manning as well. But I have to agree with you about what stevecook said. Let's just hope NE or SD, who both need a bigtime WR, will shell out the cash and make it work for him.
