I like Gaffney. I think he can be a decent number two. Has Pinky's ability, minus the inclination to be such a Hoyda. The Texans also used him to return kicks.

agreed.  i like this move, i don't think it's the answer, but a definite improvement.

In all of the other nonsense I hadn't mentioned how much I love that Gaffney has return experience. I honestly think that may be the best part of this signing.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

His return experience is about as awesome as his quarterbacking experience.

That would be about a million times better than the return experience of every non-westbrook member of the 2005 Eagles.

I know he wasn't the punt returner on his college team.

whatever MR I hate the leading punt returner in the NFL.   Eating at Chickie and Petes will be quite the adventure for you sir.

there is some great comedy in this thread, as romey put it, a bizarro- :CF

i'm ok with this deal as long as they don't believe this is going to solve their problems.  as hunt pointed out, it does make me feel better that some "other" guys may not make the roster due to these signings, i'm happy about that, but i'd still like to see another receiver come in.  if it doesn't happen, i won't get depressed, but i'd like to see it happen.

If the only reason this makes you happy is because MushMouth won't make the roster come September, it's pretty somber indeed.
Anyone but Reid.

i didn't get a chub over the deal, but there was no shrinkage either.  take it for what it's worth

I'm on board with the deal, as a minor deal.  Gaffney is better than some of the stiffs we lined up last year.  Can't hurt to get him in to compete.  It's not like he signed a monster contract.  If it works out, great.  If not, no biggie.

I like this move  and I agree with a lot of the comments here!

According to those pics, he's capable of catching with his hands.  That's a good start.
