If our front office can structure a reasonable deal without a huge signing bonus then any one of those guys would be worth a look. I think Bratzke would be the best pickup, he's a high motor guy who always brings effort. At times it seems like our effort is sorely lacking, maybe he could help.

I agree with Bratzke. Johnson and Brackens have to many injury problems.

Bratzke is a beast. He killed us last time we played the Colts. He had 2 or 3 sacks that game.

I agree with picking up Bratzke but do you really think we could afford him.How much would it cost us? Also I was wondering how much cap space we even have left?

Not sure how much they'll save, but cutting Trotter next week will free up some cash. But then again, they've got to sign the rooks.

According to the Warpaths resident cap expert CrazyCanuck, "Right now we're $800K under the cap, plus another $2.7M when Trotter is cut, for a total of $3.5M.

So we could sign him and possibly another player, after we cut Trotter. Although Snyder might be counting on that cap space money to sign our rookies. That happens to exactly around how much it will cost to sign all of our draft picks.

I still have my fingers crossed that Miami won't re-sign Ogunleye...

theres no chance of us getting him. Bratze would be great though. But they are probaly all going to want a bunch of money. We'll free up money cutting Trung and Trotter. I guess if we have the money, DE is the way to go. If we cut Wynn we'd have a bunch of money freed up

we could sign anyone really if we wanted to give them a long contract. The first year of snyders contracts dont ever cost much.

Unless there is a surprise cut at DE today I don't see us going after anybody. I think Williams is reserved to the fact that his best chance at bringing pressure with this current group will have to come from blitzing Arrington, Washington and Taylor. Any sort of pressure that comes from the front four will be a bonus.

There really isn't anyone out there that we could pick up and plug in and have notch 10 sacks. Anyone that is hitting the wire today is hitting it for a reason, they're likely overrated, overpaid, over the hill or a combo of the three.
