Did anyone say that we should take him for vet min. But I would like him on the team as long as it isnt a crazy contract.

Can we put a 6 month ban on the term "vet minimum??? I mean every time some over the hill, broke down, almost was is released, everyone wants to sign him for "vet (or league) minimum"

I agree. Theres no such thing as a guy who shouldn't be signed for the vet min. Doesn't exist. So saying that you'd give the vet min to a guy is a complete lack of analysis.

Should we give Simeon Rice a fair market value contract? We have 7 mil to spare and I'd be looking at bringing in a guy for a one year solution. But to let Carter continue his development, we should be looking at a guy to come in and back him up. I don't think 7 million for one year is nearly enough to have Simeon Rice accept a backup role.

Re: simeon rice

This guy will probably get a 4-6 Millon a year on a 3 year deal.

He's being cut cause he would cost the bucs 10mil on their cap.
I dont think the Skins will go there.

If the skins can get him for under 2.5 mil/year I say do it.....but....that just aint gunna happen folks.

Talk about presure...this guy is good...better than anyone we've got.
I know he's old...but when he's on....watch out.
I do like the guy.

Y'all tell me if I'm smoking crack

Re: simeon rice

I gotta correct myself here...
He aint gunna get no 4-6 mil/year....he actually failed his physical cause of his bad shoulder....

Max he gets is 3 ....if someone want to take a chance....
I still say we give him a shot at 2 mil.. assuming the physical was rigged to get him off the roster.

Skins Nut, welcome, one minute questioning your own crack habit & the next filling us in on Rice's shoulder - good work!
I was wondering why they would wait till now to cut him, didn't seem to make much sense. He had a bad year last year too. It's sounding more & more like he's not worth signing.

Heya Freddie....WHAZZUP!
Thanks for the welcome...

I think they waited out his release so they could get Gaines Adams under contract first.....if they cut Rice first that would have given the Rookie serious leverage with his contract.....and a potential hold out.
Just my opinion though...

PS....crack is bad for you

Re: simeon rice

Can he play Daniels side? If we cut Daniels, would he play for Daniels pay. Or for that matter Wynn's pay? What do you all think.

Re: simeon rice

Sign him, anything that could help our D unit would be appreciated. I know GW could find some packages to put this vet in. I would much rather have him playing with us than against us to be honest.

Re: simeon rice

A lot of people don't have much faith in Daniels, but he played ok last year, he just wasn't healthy for much of it. He plays hard & is a better run stopper than Rice I bet.
Plus he's a team leader. I'm not ready to give up on him just yet, though I realize at 34 we can't expect too much.

No way Daniels and/or Wynn can play with Rice. He's worth twice what they are, times two.

Re: simeon rice

One thing we have come to know is that Snyder does know how to handle that salary cap.
I say sign him and sign him now.
He had 14 sacks in 05, 12.5 in 04, 14.5 in 03, 16 in 02.

He's only 33. He still has a couple good years left in the tank, and he would INSTANTLY be the best DE we have.
As long as he is fully recovered from last years injuries, I say go for it.
I don't think he'll be too expensive.
