Charles Grant's trade value?

He would be worth a 5th but who would be willing to give it? Huge cap hit if they trade for him. Why not just wait till we relase him and sign him for half the price. McCray is just as good and cost us 3mil + a year less.

After watching the playoffs I'd argue that McCray is the better defensive end. The guy wrecked Warner and you know that Favre "remembers" him.

mccray just doesnt stop the run very well.....thats his only down fall

he is a huge liability in the run game and he was greatly exposed on several long runs in the post season......its nice to have someone that fast coming off the edge but his height and his lack of bulk is a huge disadvantage for us in stopping the run

I say that is where Hargrove comes in. If I am not mistaken Hargrove started at de and has bulk, just not Grant bulk. We really need to build depth at de though. Age is starting to scare me, not to mention the 4 game suspension.
