If we are reading tea leaves based on agents...

Cruz accepts the one year tender and then next year... Garcon on the outside with Cruz in the slot and Davis lined up at tight end.

Santana is gone next year so the need for a slot receiver is there. Morgans contract voids next year iirc plus he is due big money anyways. Morgan and Santana cover the cost of Cruz. Same money plus an upgrade at the position.

But, as we all know, reading tea leaves based on agents is pointless.

Just draft Quinton Patton instead. He plays like a Santana Moss clone. Saves a ton of money over paying Cruz.

Thank you. RBs and WRs = get them young and cheap. Our Offense produced even when Garçon and Davis were out. We don't need overpriced free agents. The Giants got great value for him, as he was an undrafted free agent. We should look to do the same.

No one was reading anything, just an explanation .Cruz will sign a long-term deal with NY in the 7 mill a year range ,they still have to pay Nicks next year, Cruz has too many things going up in NY to leave and start from scratch. In DC the media darling is RGIII in NY it's Cruz.

rodgers >>>>>>> flacco. I'm surprised he isn't making more now. he's due.

[Monkeydad]

He has already turned down a $7 million offer from the Giants.

Anyone who would hang around NY because the media is on their side at the moment is in for a rude awakening. The NY media turns on people faster than anyone.

Was 7 million not enough money? I can't see the Giants giving him any more than that.

......from what I understand it's not money it's length of contract.

Rolando McClain released by Oakland Raiders - NFL.com

Young, rated out as a better MLB (16) than both Perry (30) and London (24) [according to nfldraftscout's top 60 ILBs], and said he prefers to play in the 34 defense. He supposedly is a 2 down LB, but in the 3-4, he may not be just a 2 down LB. I know people are high on Keenan Robinson, but the dude didn't start and only played in very limited packages and tore his pec. Translation; I'm not sold as him starting right after London retires. Even Perry played and stayed healthy a lot his first year as an ILB. If we signed Rolando to a small deal, he'd be worth it to replace London or incase Riley leaves in FA or if Keenan doesn't work out, or if Keenan is only a passing down kind of LB and Rolando can play the other run downs.

I dont think it would kill us to do our research and give him a look, but I just dont think he will end up here.

His type of head case activities I have more a concern with than Honey Badger liking to get high in college.

They Jets should make any team trading for Revis take Tebow as a throw-in.

[skinsfaninok]

Jets are becoming the raiders east. And honestly I'm tired of hearing about the jets, they have never been any good honestly, they have 1 SB title and that was 40 years ago. Only reason they get any time is because of the NY factor. They aren't much better historically than Philadelphia

How do the Cowboys have enough money to possibly sign Winston & we don't?

@AdamSchefter: Cowboys now in talks to sign former Chiefs OT Eric Winston.
