There are several wide receivers who are on the free-agent market. Let's take a look at some who are available and where they could go.
1. Joe Horn. The veteran wideout missed last season after getting cut by Atlanta. San Francisco, Tampa Bay and Tennessee have an interest. Horn is being offered the minimum salary of $845,000 for a player of his tenure. But Horn is looking for something a little more, and could get it with Tampa Bay being roughly $30 million under the salary cap. The 49ers are about $25 million under the cap.
2. Marvin Harrison. His agent said recently he wants to play despite some bad knees. Harrison should be willing to sign for the minimum. But its doubtful he wants to do that.
3. Amani Toomer. The Giants didn't use Toomer as much as they should have when Plaxico Burress was suspended. Toomer grew frustrated with not getting the ball, and the team was concerned that he didn't get open enough. He didn't score a touchdown the last four weeks of the regular season. But Toomer can be a productive No. 2 or 3 wideout. Chicago is slightly interested.

Bears could use Harrison as a second or third receiver for one year

I'd rather see them sign Toomer. I think Cutler can revive his career.

I am a Panthers fan who feels Drew Carter never got a fair shake w/ us, and he was injured last year when the Raiders wanted to give him a chance. I'd love to see a team sign Drew Carter. I read yesterday that the Lions have signed Keary Colbert again; Carter wound up being a better player for us than Colbert in the long run. If there is work for Colbert, there should be work for Carter

IMHO dumping Toomer is a mistake.
There were many times last year when he was wide open.They should have thrown "the damn ball" to him.
