Just like with Mario Williams, it'll only take one visit to become filthy rich.

I certainly didn't want us to overpay for Nicks and risk losing other opportunities to resign and possibly bring in players. Grubbs will take less money, and will imo be a better fit for what the Saints want to do financially, while being able to fill most of the void(if not all of it) left by Nick's departure.

Yes! Amen! It will suck to see Nicks go but we're not going to fall apart losing one guard. Grubbs will be a welcomed replacement. Plus, I guess the Bucs should have at least ONE good player lol.

They'll have one of the best O-lines in the league if they are able to sign Nicks as it very strongly seems like they will.

The Bucs do have the bucks and they intend on spending it. They signed Steven Jackson today. Per Baldy on NFL network, should they nabb Nicks they will have weakened the Saints, of course who are in their division. All these talking heads are driving me crazy with their opinions. I turned off the TV for a while because they are just trying to fill the dead spaces in their broadcast.
