Offseason Moves

Rugby Saint II · 02-09-2010, 04:24 PM

My biggest concern is DT. Shanle and Fujita are both replaceable at linebacker. I would like to see Sharper stay. He knows he is on a team that could repeat and considering he's on the back end of his career another Superbowl chance would be hard to pass up, especially with GW calling the plays. I too am concerned about OT.

Who is the LB that was put on IR, before the season? Did we cut him? The one from Philly?

Mark Simoneau...I think he was just placed on IR. He would provide depth, but could definitely be upgraded.

Simoneau!!! Thank you D. It was driving me crazy.

Great post and welcome to B&G. Isn't it nice when we as fans can have confidence that the FO will make the right personnel decisions? A couple of points:

1. I don't think Prioleau is going anywhere. He has followed GW everywhere.

2. Sharper won't get a high-paying multi-year deal anywhere, so I think he will be happy to stick around. I hope so because I don't see anybody better around.

3. Strief is more than a backup. I think he played about 1/3 of all snaps this year, often as a 2nd or 3rd TE.
