Seattle continues to look for weapons to help Russell Wilson, with Terrelle Pryor the latest receiver the Seahawks are recruiting.

Pryor will visit the Seahawks on Sunday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Pryor is in Cleveland today but to support Ohio State in the NCAA wrestling championships and not to visit with the Browns.

The Browns, though, still want Pryor, and Pryor has expressed interest on social media in returning to Cleveland. The Browns and Pryor have talked but remain apart on money, via Cabot.

Cleveland already has Josh Gordon, Jarvis Landry and Corey Coleman at the position, with Coleman possibly the odd man out if Pryor returns to town. Pryor had a 1,000-yard season in Cleveland in 2016 before leaving for Washington, where he caught only 20 passes for 240 yards and a touchdown.

Browns coach Hue Jackson drafted Pryor as a quarterback in Oakland and then gave him a chance as a receiver in Cleveland.

The Rams also have interest in Pryor.

  1. Again? Okay, this time as a WR instead of a QB. You could have got him cheap if you’d have convinced Pryor to convert to WR when he was in Seattle years ago. Too little too late.

  3. Pryor has done nothing but make bad decisions his entire life. Whats going to
    change now?

  4. Looked amazing in training camp. There was film after film of one handed catches. Then came the games. Those spectacular leaps and catches stop happening when he was worried about safeties smashing him in the ribs.

    He’s got great athletic talent but his lack of experience showed last year. It’s not that he’s afraid of contact. He’s just got the instincts of a normal human. Good receivers have had that instinct to shrink down and protect their ribs trained out of them. Pryor hasn’t. He can take a hit and run hard once he has got the ball but he can’t stretch for the ball in traffic.

    He could be productive as a deep threat in a strong corps that can give the hard catches across the middle to other receivers. You can’t rely on him as a number 1 or 2 receiver.

  5. Seattle is only looking to attempt to get Pryor cheap. He’ll end up back in Cleveland where he’s seen to have the most value. He should have signed for that $32M 4 year contract Cleveland offered him in 2017. But he chose to gamble and sign a 1 year $6M contract with Washington, and was injured and IR’d. Pulling for him, because if you know Pryor’s story his family could use the money. Best of luck AP!

  7. he’ll be back in Cleveland, giving Mayfield 2 big tall burners to catch his very, very accurate passes.

  11. I’ve read that the 49ers are also interested; as a 49ers fan, I was hoping they’d sign him, providing that it’d be on the cheap and no more than 2-3 mil per year with some incentives to top out at 4 mil. max. With Garcon coming off that injury, as well as Goodwill’s bad concussion from the major hit he took in the last game of the season, adding a WR like Pryor to our group would be wise. Even if Garcon and Goodwin turn out to be fine, as is predicted, Pryor could still be a fine 3rd or 4th wideout option since he’s fast with good hands.

  12. He will go to the highest bidder. That means he probably won’t play home games in Putrid Sound Stadium. Seattle has gone into penny-pinching mode after blowing $8 million at Luke Joeckel last off season.

  13. Seattle is kicking the tires but they’re not going to give him a hot contract like WASH did last year. The results speak for themselves. I’m actually more interested in DJ Fluker’s supposed visit on Monday. With Lockett, Baldwin, Darboh, Brown, Moore, McEvoy and Grayson Seattle has 3 vets who could start anywhere. Moore has some of the same skill set as Tate when he was here only he’s bigger and faster. Darboh is a lot like Kearse only bigger and faster. Grayson is one of the fastest guys in the league with similar size as Richardson and McEvoy had a bad year last year but still could be that big receiver. With the addition of Dickson and Vannett getting an opportunity, I think Seattle will be better off at TE with two guys that can block and catch short routes like Zach Miller used to do. I don’t see Pryor as a guarantee to an improved passing game with some of the young talent already on the roster. Let’s fix the run game and everything else will work out.
