The FA ratings are by approximate value (AV) accumulated in the last three years. The WR ratings are subjective.

good stuff. The draft is so deep with recievers, i think your pretty close on stuff. Broyles, Criner, Toon could be those mid round WR steals. I really dont know about that Randle guy, but what ive read, seems very intriguing. Id like to Adams, Hill or the Baylor kid with our second round pick.

I think in FA, I still like V-Jax, Colston, and Garcon. I wouldnt give Garcon a crazy contract but something decent. If we get Manning, I probably would go with #1 WR money, if not, pay him like a solid second. I think there is gonna be alot of over paying for what results you could get.

Re: Around the NFL: 2012 Off-Season-Free Agency/Trades
 

so DJ, bowe, branch, wallace, welker, and probably finley and one of the saints (brees/nicks) will get tagged and be off the market. dqwell and brooks are already gone, garcon wants over 7mill a year apparently...

I think a flyer on moss and trying for meachem or SJ is probably the best option, though VJ wouldn't be bad either. in the draft i like black (obviously) or criner.

Bowe got tagged/tendered?

sucks to see a guy have to leave the game early

Finnegan and Grimes got tagged this morning.. Makes Brandon Carr that much more expensive for teams looking for a top CB.

Re: Around the NFL: 2012 Off-Season-Free Agency/Trades
 

Saints are up against the cap(trying to work the contracts under it) with several good free agents, not to mention Brees. I think it's just negotiations.

I thought Finnegan wasn't tagged

Re: Around the NFL: 2012 Off-Season-Free Agency/Trades
 

That is correct Adam Schefter said that Finnegan will NOT be tagged. Jlac is an idiot

Re: Around the NFL: 2012 Off-Season-Free Agency/Trades
 

Hey Smoot, what's the word on getting a CB through free agency? I somehow get the feeling that the team won't spend a lot of money on getting one of these top CBs, if they are going to spend money on a #1 WR.

Re: Around the NFL: 2012 Off-Season-Free Agency/Trades
 

[quote=GTripp0012;890827]Sure they will. He's Mike Wallace.

The real question is whether someone will sign him if they think Pittsburgh will match the offer.[/quote]

Wonder if New England will make a move for Wallace. Or perhaps settle for Brandon Lloyd.

Ya I was gonna ask smoot the same question. I would LOVE to have Brandon Carr. But I get a bad feeling that we'll get Ronde Barber.

Really? Ronde Barber? He's a little old to ask to be our starting corner.

Re: Around the NFL: 2012 Off-Season-Free Agency/Trades
 

the best 2 options out there at corner will be Finnegan and Carr, Carr would be my first choice bc of age but i would be fine with Finnegan. At WR im not sure whats going to happen with Bowe, if he somehow tests the market we should snag him, if not i say Stevie Johnson.

Carr had alot of issues in coverage from what I read. After a couple decent seasons, last year was a serious let down. Bringing Carr into to replace Hall doesnt fix the problem.
