He left 2001 - we won the 2009 Season Championship - not exactly a springboard move...

Tag him and develop his replacement for the year after. I love Nicks more than I do Evans... but with that said, interior lineman aren't that hard to replace. I just don't find it logical to invest such a gigantic sum of money into our interior line.

I totally agree. They are expendable unless you have a Willie Roaf caliber lineman which he is not. I've watch Payton Manning do fine with an O line rebuilt almost entirely midway through the season with guys off the street. I want him back but not for that kind of money.

Well Loomis kind of asked for this with the contract they gave Evans. Nicks grades out higher than Evans so it is only right that he asks for more money. Personally I think it's too much money but all this started when you overpaid for Evans.

Exactly.

So after Nicks leaves, DLP moves to LG and Tennett starts at C .... yeah Loomis needs to get Drew's deal done soon so he can tag Nicks and at least keep him around one more year
