Seriously, I hope the FO takes notice of this. Although I wonder what the state of the Cowpukes and Iggles line is going to be next season. The Cowpukes lost Canty, but still have Ware. And like I said, I don't know about the Iggles.

I never said he was a bust. My gripe is that the money put into Haynesworth and Hall could have been spread to fix many holes.

I wasn't talking about you, this is referring to my post on the AH/Dana Stubby thread.

I'm concerned about the RT position. Heyer and Jensen are really not convincing me, I almost feel we should address this in the draft now that we have Dock.

I think we will be ok with Heyer and Jansen + Rinehart. I think Jansen will bounce back, We can probably get away this year but not next, that is if Mack is our pick..

Springs might land with Pats. Someone had mentioned this when Springs was cut....I think SSmack.....(The Insider)?

If true and he gets a deal then I surely didn't see this one coming. But they do like the old guys at the end of their career. Usually they pickup the ones the can still ball consistently. Which Springs has been anything but. Good luck.

SHAWN SPRINGS VISITING THE PATS
Posted by Mike Florio on February 28, 2009, 10:59 p.m.

Veteran cornerback Shawn Spring could be the latest member of the Patriots’ thirtysomething defense.

The 12-year veteran, cut by the Redskins in the wake of the Albert Haynesworth signing, will visit the Pats on Sunday, according to Shalise Manza Young of the Providence Journal.

Free-agent cornerback Leigh Bodden visited the Pats on Friday, but reportedly left without a contract.

Sorry folks....WRONG THREAD!

I hope that Heyer and Rinehart step up sf. I dont think Jansen is any more than a capable back up anymore with his inabilaty to stay healthy.. I would love to see Mack, Smith ,or Oher to come in and bolster the line with some youth and longevity!

May have been mentioned already but I think the Lions got Bryant Johnson (overrated) and the Texans got Antonio Smith, lined up opposite Mario Williams that's a great move.

Great job on the names. I still haven't found that information yet.

Where did you get the names?

I got mad connections yo, (also the link you posted has another link to an article that's been updated with names)

Apparently the boat is Cooper's, and they were told the water was too dangerous and not to go out...but they did anyway.

Thanks...it doesn't sound good that Cooper's car is still parked in its spot.

Seahawks signed Colin Cole (which could put them out of the Canty race), and the Vikings might be closing in on Housh (yet still no one to throw to him or Berrian)

Canty signs with G-men. Great FA moves.

Giants continue to bolster defense, sign DT Canty

Posted: March 1st, 2009 | Adam Schefter | Tags: Chris Canty, Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers, New York Giants

New York continues making bold moves to shore up its defense.

One day after signing defensive tackle Rocky Bernard and linebacker Michael Boley, the Giants signed free-agent defensive end Chris Canty to a six-year, $42 million contract that includes $17.25 million in guaranteed money. Now Dallas’ loss is New York’s gain.

Dallas could not afford to keep Canty, and Green Bay was trying to arrange for him to visit the Packers. But Canty did not want to leave New York, nor the East Coast, and Sunday afternoon he took the Giants’ offer.

The Giants have gotten defensive. Again.
