Yeah, I think he was accused of stealing in St. Louis.

Injuried last year too.

Hope we're still planning on signing one of the Seattle corners at least.

We also just signed a LB named Darryl Sharpton. Never heard of him.

About the same level as Riley, adds more depth at the position.

Why is everyone so down on Porter? Haven't really seen him play the last couple years but isn't he a pretty good man cover guy?

Apparently never healthy though.

I think I'd rate Riley a lot higher.

Not any more.

He started off good with the Saints, but last year he was pretty bad with the Raiders. Its possible it was more of a bad fit based on the scheme they ran. A change of scenery may do him good, but its somewhat of a crap shoot with those things.

On another note, Vince Wilfork is asking to be released by the Pats.

rather have al sharpton

I hope he plays special teams. His stats are really uninspiring.

Anyone hear anything about what we're doing (if anything) with Rob Jackson? He's ont he market, and has had some success with the team. Not bad depth, although I wouldn't pencil him in as a starter.

I'm sure he'll be looking for one last big contract. Otherwise I'd love to have him here. I wonder how is he health wise.

Does anyone know much about Donald Penn from the Bucs? Apparently he was a middle-level left tackle. Could he play right tackle?

Heck yeah. Now we're talking. Real help for a defensive hole.

Not that I think he's a world-beater, but he is a young player with an upward trajectory at a position of need.

You folks realize that vet min deals don't move the needle at all on our cap number, right? The Skins can sign as many vet min deals as they like, as far as I'm concerned.

We have guys on our current roster who I've never seen on the field. Maybe they just can't play at all and need to be replaced with some true depth.
