Hakeem Nicks wants to play with Colts' Andrew Luck - NFL.com (http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000332163/article/hakeem-nicks-wants-to-play-with-colts-andrew-luck)
This guy has sucked for the last two seasons and now he's telling the NFL what he wants for Christmas?
If he gets a lucrative, multi-year contract then we'll know that spending on FA's is completely out of hand.

Some GM will give him a big contract using the reasoning that he didnt try due to his contract. Someone will assume that his effort will be there if he is given a big contract. Im hoping we stay away from him. Dont want players that give up when things dont go their way. Its a Vinny move and I am hoping we are past that.

The more I hear about Mike Mitchell, the more I dont want him. Rather pay the high price of Byrd than overpay for a bust FA.

Now Nicks has said that he is open to a 1 year prove it deal, are you all ok with that? Because no doubt Nicks can play.He's spent two years carefully crafting that doubt.

Yeah, anything other than a 1 year deal Im not down with. Ive been saying a prove it deal for Nicks this entire offseason, but I do think someone dumb is going with a bigger offer. Indy probably gonna way overpay Eric Decker, so dont think Nicks lands there.

Alterraun Verner is my favorite FA. I'd rather sign him than Byrd or Talib by a long shot.
Agreed. Younger, less expensive and potentially better than Talib too, without the issues that Talib might bring.
Talib is asking for too much and we're not completely broken at CB. Safety should be the higher priority.
I'd love to see Verner and Mike Mitchell over picking one of Byrd or Talib.
O-line too..hit it!

Less expensive? Almost certainly not because there are so many teams that are going after him.
Other than the less expensive part about Verner, I agree with you. That's not a knock on Talib or Byrd - they're both outstanding players. Perhaps signing Mitchell and Munnerlyn wouldn't break the bank.

I'd be happy with those two.

No way is a safety getting that kind of money. He needs to lower his demands.
