SmootSmack 03-06-2010, 01:21 PM What a start to Free Agency 2010:
-Not surprised at all Peppers isn't here. Like I said all along, it was never serious
-Surprised we didn't at least get a visit from Dansby. Thought Dansby would make a few trips and we'd be one of them. But I'm glad Allen didn't bite on that deal. I like Dansby, but not sure I want him at that price
-Dunta Robinson was always a long shot so that doesn't surprise me that he's not here. But again, glad we didn't spend that kind of money on him. He's not worth that much
-I had never taken earlier Larry Foote rumors seriously, but they do make sense
-Glad we didn't sign Chad Clifton. I don't see him as much better than Levi Jones
-Haven't heard about Ben Hamilton lately, other than I think he was going to Seattle for a visit. I think he'll pay a visit here. But I could be wrong
-Campbell to the Browns rumors are dead at the moment (don't know about other Campbell rumors)
-We have mild, very mild, interest in Thomas Jones
-I'm hoping we sign Rex Grossman so I can change my username to SexyRexy

Chico23231 03-06-2010, 02:16 PM Thanks for the update SS...Im very glad to hear interest, even if it is mild, in T. Jones...the ease Portis felt 2 days ago hearing Betts and Rock were cut would likely be much heighten if we did sign an over-achiever such as T. Jones. T. Jones is just a hard worker, keeps himself in shape, and plays hard....the reaction Portis would have would be extremely interesting...would we see the jackass Portis run his mouth again or would it light a fire? Arguement could be made either way it would help the team.

firstdown 03-06-2010, 02:30 PM Boy FA use to be alot more fun. LOL
Swarley 03-06-2010, 02:31 PM hopefully now the regular season is more fun!
tryfuhl 03-06-2010, 02:58 PM I am not nervous at all. We as fans are so used to having big names come in by the moment free agancy starts and then thinking all of our problems are solved.
There are still what about 170 days or so till training camp starts. We have still have trades to make, the draft, thier are players who will be let go here and there as well. There are plenty of ways to fill out the roster with quality NFL football players. I would not be surprised if we make a trade or 2 especially if we trade away a couple of our guys.
Yeah this isn't going to be the end of cuts by any means. Rosters will have to be trimmed, draft picks will replace some vets or fringe roster young guys, etc.

ahh, Betts' replacement if we sign him
SmootSmack 03-06-2010, 03:09 PM It doesn't really mean much, but we did interview at least 8 running backs that I know of at the combine (though off-hand I can only name Matthews, Blount, Hardesty, Gerhart, and Spiller) so I would imagine a RB in the draft is on our radar.

I'd have to imagine so, especially with the roster blow up, can't see us replacing 2 spots in FA and going in with just Portis. I'm wondering who we're looking at in FA aside from the Sproles rumors.
