Briggs to test Free Agent market

I think the price tag is gonna be too high. IF we woulda either let charles grant go or sign him for less then maybe, but as wheel said we gonna have to resign smith and MM.

His daughter's momma could hurt his chances at landing a huge payday. She claims that he is not supporting his child, and that he impregnated two other women that caused their relationship to end.

I have no clue on how much of this is true, but it does raise a red flag on his character. I am also not sure if this allegation would hurt him in free agency, but I do not it doesn't help. If all is good, he would be a nice upgrade for the Saints.

Travis Henry has 9 kids with 9 women, doesn't support any of them and still buys $100,000 cars!

^^^^^

Very good point '76. I would think that a scumbag that doesn't take care of his kids would be a hotter issue to fix than some of this other crap they are fining players for.
