Although I'm sure we can cut Wynn or Daniels now, which would save maybe a million or two.

It would be interesting to see if the FO shows some interest, but if this guy had the franchise tag on him, he will be asking for franchise type money. Cutting Wynn or Daniels is an option, but you do need some depth, and they are seasoned vets. I am sure we are going to draft a LB tomorrow, let's see who we land!!!!

I would sign him in a heartbeat. Even though he just got into some legal trouble for some weed, but hell half the league smokes anyway....maybe it would lower his price. That would be sweeeeeeeeet and then draft OL the rest of the draft.

MW is getting old, this kid is young and has a ton of talent, and potential. Only problem is price tag... thats why we might see more of MW in 2009, we can probably pick him up for vet minimum.

Im hoping Levi Jones gets cut by the Bengals. Better then MW but not Hill and would be cheaper.

Levi Jones? he's an OT. Were you thinking of Dhani Jones? Either way. i dont see the bengals cutting defensive players, they need all of them at this point. I do agree though Dhani Jones would be a good pickup, i think he is an inside linebacker though, off the top of my head.

mrreddman · 04-26-2009, 01:14 AM

Hill is a nice young fast veteran who knows the coach. You would have to consider him if we have the cap room.

skins89moss · 04-26-2009, 07:13 AM

This is a player we sure could use, but whats his asking price. I think we take a look but the numbers have to be right for us to sign him. Their are alot of teams who have huge cap space to give him a big payday. We can compete at this point if he is looking to get paid vs winninng.

Sign Him

This addition might make us the best defense in football. It would be awsome if they can afford it. Cant cost more than Taylor.

What nice about him he would hit the road fast and be a very good player from day one and be around a few years. It would give us a D that would play with the likes of the NFC East! A D that would shorten the field for our O!

We'll see what happens with the draft with OLBs and who we get...keep in mind leroy hill was a 3rd or 4th rounder when he was drafted but he's diffenitly a possibility..

Who cares when he got drafted... He led the Seahawks in tackles and considered a top notch NFL linebacker... would you say NO to Tom Brady becasue he was drafted in the 6th round? where a person gets drafted generally doesn't mean a shit after 4 years... They either made it, or they didn't (Unless your Jason Campbell, then you need about 6 years).

This would be an amazing pick up. Add the speed at Linebacker so we can get to the QB.

nimbh2 · 04-26-2009, 08:50 AM

my question is which linebackers are left in the draft worth taking?

Kaluka Maiava USC
Tyrone McKenzie South Florida
Marcus Freeman Ohio State
Nic Harris Oklahoma

These probably are the top OLB prospects left. I dont know if any are worth a 3rd round pick. Maiava is a beast but has had some injury issues.

Chico23231 · 04-26-2009, 09:14 AM

I dont know much about Hill, but if he was worth a franchise tag he must have some talent. The FO needs to take a look and crunch the numbers to get this guy. If we dont pick him up, regardless of the who we draft, I'd like to see MW in a Skins uniform next year.
