Re: 2015 Free Agents

So, lets say we sign nobody of note. No big money spent except to lock up Kerrigan and T. Williams. Lots of cuts, lots of no-names signed. A clear "We are cleaning the cupboard and starting over" type of offseason.

How much bitching will ensue? Who would have a problem with that?

At this point I would not care if we did that. (I still want DeSean for Madden though.)

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

I would cry of happiness.

One of the best days of my life if he ever said that.

I would have no problem with that. Clean house, change the uniforms back to the winning uniforms of the 1980's, and welcome the glory years again!

To a point I wouldn't mind, but you can't just cut everybody who "sucks". Doing that would unnecessarily put us deeper in the hole. Chester, Bowen, and Clark obviously need to go. Guys like Meriweather, Lavuao, and Porter can still help.

Has there been a Porter sighting? All those guys you mentioned can go bye-bye as far as I'm concerned. In fact, I think the guy who had the idea of throwing a grenade into the locker room to make the cuts wasn't far off.

I hardly care who goes bye-bye or how bad our W-L record may be over the next couple of seasons as long as we get younger and better to set ourselves up for long-term success. I want to see a true team build.

Porter was actually pretty solid when he played, but yeah, perhaps he's too injury-prone to keep. Meriweather shouldn't be penciled in as the starter, but if he comes back on a salary close to what he made this year(1.2 million I think) he'd be a good option to compete. And Lavuao wasn't as bad as a lot think IMO. He finished strong anyway.

Keep telling yourself those things if it makes you feel better. We'll see what our new GM, DC, and position coaches think about those players.

Porter played in 3 games, and had 5 tackles- 1 pass deflection. He earned about $2.5..... if he takes the veteran minimum, plus his bonus, bring him to training camp, and see if he can make the team.

Meriweather must go, he is one dimensional, decent tackler ... no coverage skills.

Agreed, and the crummy "regular" refs the NFL uses (why did we not keep using the replacement refs again? they would have gotten used to standing up to players) have a bead on Merriweather. Half the PFs they called on him were legit hits.

i think you forget how bad the replacements were. hint: they were terrible, and it was affecting the outcome of games.

I would like that just depends on who we cut.
