GTripp0012 05-20-2008, 09:04 PM SFGate: Raiders Silver and Black Blog : Breaking news: Raiders cut Schweigert (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfgate/detail?blogid=11&entry_id=26657)
PFT reports that a Marion Barber extension is valued at 7 years and 45 million, which is Portis-type money. Risky, but if he stays healthy, he'll be worth it.
Terrence Newman got 6 years and 50 million with 22 guarenteed per Adam Schefter. Not quite Samuel money, but just a hair below which seems to be market value for a #1 corner these days.

Matt Ryan just got a six year deal. With slots one and three signed, it shouldn't take long for Chris Long, and the rest will fall in to place. No holdouts necessary.
SeanTaylor21 05-20-2008, 09:34 PM I don't think that Marion Barber really deserved that much money, he hasn't really been a full time starter, he had some good numbers, but he hasn't ever been a full time back.
TheMalcolmConnection 05-20-2008, 09:36 PM For me, I think his numbers were skewed quite a bit. I think he was merely an average runner and didn't even think his numbers were that great.

Didn't he have like -4 yards on like 10 carries against us?

GTripp0012 05-20-2008, 10:38 PM I like Schweigert, and for the right price, he could help this team. He would actually play the run much better from the SS position that Doughty plays than the FS position that he played in Oakland.
He could cover the pass a lot better than Reed, but if he did sign here, he would probably still back Reed up.

I always thought of him as a Adam Archuleta Jr., not to good in coverage, miss tackles, and got beat out by some guy named Hiram Eugene, who didn't play a game the year before.
LandrySlice 05-20-2008, 11:30 PM We need another Safety, Doughty isin't gonna cut it, although Landry is so nasty on his own that if ST could do it with moderate help, why can't Landry?

If he was making 2 million a year instead of 6, no one would have cared if he wasnt good enough to start.
