And better.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
 

Two sum up some questions on the past 2 pages.

We Have talked to Newman.

Mario Manningham is NOT a slot WR (Cruz was their slot guy)

Moss, Austin, Robinson are all going to be cut IMO

We need to draft a slot guy. Perfect fit for us; Ryan Broyles OU. We could get him in the 4th round since he had a knee injury this year. They only problem is that Royal would have been a slot AND PR. Right now we have really neither.

A name you all should keep your eye on, Mike Brisiel G Houston Texans. He's with the Raiders, and will reportedly visit us should the Raiders not give him a decent offer. He's 29 (negative) but is a very good guard whose played in this offense and is better than either guards we have now.

Also your daily Eric Winston update. He visited KC today. Reportedly he wants to be teh highest paid RT in the league. Which sounds like no bueno for us.

According to the Washington Post:

3 years $13+ million, $6 million guaranteed...Supposedly we offered him a 2 year $12 million deal...

Yeah SS mentioned him earlier:

but I think Chester is a better guard than Brisiel.

It isn't as if he's 36 years old - he will be 26 when the season starts. At that age, the FO should have offered more than 2 years. Bummer.

Why? I'd bring him in, he'd be good pass rushing depth.

[quote=los panda;899925]what's up with hillis? what did he turn down in cleveland? to sign that little one year deal in kc?[/quote]

He wanted to go somewhere that would allow him a plausible front for his spy career. You think he's in KC right now, when he's actually in Yemen taking out terrorists.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
 

[quote=mooby;900040]Why? I'd bring him in, he'd be good pass rushing depth.[/quote]

Because he was getting paid 17 million this year.

He isn't really a depth player, he should get big money to start somewhere.

17 mil? GD. I thought he was brought in on a vet-min type deal from Cleveland? Apparently not.

Former Vikings CB Cedric Griffin will visit today

I'd bring in Ross on a 3 year deal, but he's already 30 so I don't want to commit to him long term. I don't remember Cedric Griffin being that good in Minny so I don't want him.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
 

Ross may have won the superbowl, but he was not very good.

Griffin will require less money, I want him.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
 

I'd take Ross, too. It seems that we are looking only at nickle guys, not someone for the starting 2.

Griffin used to be terrific, got injured and played poorly last year.

If we sign Ross, we're probably releasing DHall. If we sign Griffin we have depth.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
 

Honestly neither is good. Griffin tore up his knee once (maybe twice?). Ross is Laron at CB. Will get beat, make a hit and talk trash after giving up a first down.

Gun to my head I'll take Ross.

They both turn 30 this year. I'm pretty sure Hall's future isn't contingent on either of them.

Ross sounds allot like Hall, to me.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
 

The better player is easily Ross... The problem is age (30) but... If he'll take a 2-3 yr incentive deal, this would be a good move... But I think Ross might/could sign for less: [B]Just to play the Giants twice a year[/B]; he was a contributor in both Superbowl wins and might feel "disrespected/hurt/mad" that the Giants let him go... wouldn't be surprised if he signed w/ us [I]today[/I].

Agreed. Rather draft a CB and sign Newman to a 1 year contract.

Ross will be a starting corner somewhere, he's good enough to be.
Griffin is cheap insurance/depth.

I think Hall gets cut if we sign Ross.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
 

I don't. I'm not a Hall lover but you can never have too many good CBs.

He's better than Ross and Griffin, he's problem have been injuries.

Griffin is a Skin

Confusion as to if he was with us 'as in visiting' or with us as in now on the team. He is dressing up for us this fall.

When you can get that much money back from Hall, I think it'd be a great move.

If you have a smart qb/wr combo, Hall is free yards.

This sums up my feelings on the subject perfectly.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
 

If we sign Ross, Hall won't leave, but Barnes will... Barnes is a disaster at CB, and below average at S.

(Projected) CB Depth Chart

1. Ross (if he's signed)
2. Hall
3. Wilson
4. Griffin (if healthy)
5. Westbrook
