Hah. I dunno. Hard to fully blame Peerless for ATL. That team only threw for like 2500 yards/season back then. But I think Bledsoe > Flacco and we're talking about 4 straight years of WR2 production. I was never a big Torrey fan, but I think he's a value play due to WR2 upside. Then again, I thought the same thing last year. He was cheap last year. He's even cheaper this year.

WR Torrey Smith, Retired (2 Viewers)

What I was getting at was that both took the big $ payday and went to a much weaker team. Price was a zero after that and never recovered. Smith is working on becoming the same zero and doing one helluva job I might add.

He will be a lot cheaper than Kenny Stills for a team looking for someone to stretch the field.

Like the lions bro! Smith would fit there and rehab his value on a 2 yr deal.

Patriots.
Not a good fantasy landing spot, but a smart signing for the Eagles. Gives them what Agholor was supposed to be - a legitimate vertical threat. If Ertz and Matthews stay healthy, Torrey targets will be limited. Also, I don't know much about Wentz's deep ball. That will be critical.

No word on this guy. I see he's listed as a starting Wide Receiver in the Panthers' depth chart. Seems like he could have sneaky value. I could see Cam Newton hurling the ball at this guy and him making plays.

For all the negative news surrounding football these days I thought this retirement statement by Torrey Smith was rather terrific.
After watching that, is it any wonder that his best game as a professional was also achieved on what was probably the hardest day of his life? Wow.

I always liked this guy - feel like he could have been something special had he landed in the right situation. Had he landed with the Pats, Steelers, Packers, Chiefs, etc - any of those teams seem like they could have taken more advantage of his deep threat ability than the QBs he was paired with in Flacco, A.Smith, etc.
Or maybe I overrated him & he just wasn’t much more than a deep threat. I concede that’s possible.
Regardless, he was a heck of a good dude off the field. The story about paying pet adoption fees won him a place in my heart forever. That’s good dude stuff right there for sure.
