Sure if he wants to take a 1 year fuck you Washington flier.

But counting on an oft-injured, increasingly large ss/lb to cover* would be ugly.

* interchangeable safeties

Fuck if we don't get finnegan....

I wanted Rogers last year, when he would've been cheap(er).

Now he's a year older, and probably looking to get paid as this is his last chance at a big payday.

My problem with all of them is their age. All are 28+.

Didn't the Packers sign a 28 year old Charles Woodson?

I guess judd garretts breakdown of him kind of made me view him different. Maybe if this is how they view him he could end up here.

Theebs, thanks for posting this. Where is this Judd Garrett breakdown from? The Blitz show you were talking about before?

Anyone notice Bill Nagy's weak ass couldn't block him on the very first play?

You know, getting blown off the ball has a lot to do with technique sometimes as it is to being weak in the ass.

I doubt Landry overpowered him, just had better technique on the play.

Might not mean anything but Justin Miller just Tweeted Abe Elam to talk to Rob Ryan for him.

that is from the weekly jason garrett show

Not much of a fan of Landry, and the injury/obvious steroid issues are major concerns for me.

Big hitter but he has never been very good in pass coverage. He's a far lesser version of Roy Williams (the last couple yrs in Dallas Roy Williams)

Yeah, then somehow they convinced league officials to basically ignore him assaulting/raping opposing WR's

He's been a great add fot them, but he gets away with a ton of shit too

I wanted Rogers last year because he would've been cheaper because while he's always been good, he couldn't catch the HIV even if he had a Magic Johnson/Freddie Mercury sex sandwhich.

He got lasik eye surgery this past season, and he attributed that to why he was suddenly catching everything in sight.

As it is now, he's a year older, coming off a great year, and looking to get his last huge paycheck. And truthfully, you don't know if this past year was an anomoly, and he'll revert back to letting balls bounce off his hands like they were hot potatoes, or if his vision really was the cause of him turning into a ball hawk.

Miller, age 27, was once the "Fastest Man in the NFL" and was a Pro Bowl return man in 2006. He played under Jerome Henderson with the Jets (06 thru 08) and under Ryan with the Raiders (208). He was out of football in 2011. Might be worth a camp invite. Low risk.

Meh.

Also, what does "Bet u know Rome out here too" mean?

All valid points. I'm just saying, don't get caught up on age.

I like the player, so I wouldn't hate signing him. But I think we all can agree that signing players - especially skill position players - at or near the wrong side of thirty to big money deals is bad, bad, bad business.

DB isn't a skill position :howdy

 

[Theebs]

Drew brees got the exclusive rights tag and according to Albert breer this will allow nicks and colston to control where they go.

So that's interesting.

 

[cmd34]

jeRome henderson, new DB coach.

Uh... yeah it is.

jeRome henderson, new DB coach.

I knew that.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Uh... yeah it is.

No. It isn't.

QB, RB, and WR is a skill position.

 

[Theebs]

No. It isn't.

QB, RB, and WR is a skill position.

The only person I have ever seen even remotely think this is that sbk clown.
