This one is the most unlikely of the bunch. Reggie Wayne has decided that he wants to play one more season. In the past week the suitors have started to line up.

If Reggie Wayne did decide to head to the Motor City, he would complete quite the freighting trio with Calvin Johnson and Golden Tate. Wayne would benefit greatly from the coverage that those two demand and it would help him put forth one more great season and show the Colts what they are missing out on.
The reason this could potentially happen is because of his history with Lions head coach Jim Caldwell. the two spent ten years together in Indianapolis and Wayne benefited greatly from the work that Caldwell did with Peyton Manning.
The ball is in Wayne’s court though. It’s very likely that he finds himself in Seattle or Denver. Maybe even Green bay.
