Apparently the Lions have traded Jon Kitna to the Jets. No confirmation yet

Did they trade player(s) or pick(s)? Kitna couldn't be worth more than 4th rounder at this point I would think.

No idea, don't even know if it's true. But if it is I'd guess a draft pick (5th or 6th rounder maybe)

The question is will he re-sign with Arizona or go elsewhere? IMO the Cardinals would be foolish to let him walk. If they can afford it, they should give him 2yrs $20M.

Or we should. j/k

I think they (AZ) would break the bank for him.

44ever · 02-21-2009, 03:33 PM

Definatly no to Harrison.

DirtyLandry · 02-21-2009, 09:01 PM

Warner reportedly is asking for 12-14M/yr. and Arizona is offering 8-10 according to John Clayton. A little bit of a discrepancy. Also the Rams could part ways with Orlando Pace.

How about Michael Boley, Falcons OLB 26 years old. Had a crappy 08 season but has been pretty solid 06 and 07 In 2007, Boley finished one behind Keith Brooking for the team lead in tackles. He took down a career-high 109 ballcarriers after making 85 tackles the season prior. He had three sacks in ’06 and three in '07

"There is a sense from close observers of the team that Boley didn’t completely buy into Smith’s program. Boley could try to find a team that’s willing to utilize him in a way he’s more comfortable".

I think this guy is young enough and has the talent to rebound. We might be able to pick him up for as little as 3-4M a year. Since the Falcons are using him as a split and have benched him this past season.

Michael Boley

Michael Boley

We should at least check Boley out. The only bad year he's had was last year and that was after a coaching change and some personal problems. We should give him a look.

SFREDSKIN · 02-21-2009, 10:45 PM

I like Boley, don't get me wrong, but I think he's on the light side at 223lb. Jacobs would run him over, we need beefy LB's.

SFREDSKIN · 02-21-2009, 11:13 PM

Are Igor OLchansky and Chris Canty UFA's? If so, we should sign both of these guys.

Both are 3-4 DEs not a good fit for our system. Their price tags will likely be driven up by the three (I believe) additional teams moving to the 3-4.

53Fan · 02-21-2009, 11:19 PM

I know Canty is. Not sure about the other guy.

We should get him, the guy is good and if Olshasky is available him too. Let Taylor hit the road along with Daniels.
