Chris Canty at NT??

Sarik · 02-07-2013, 05:34 AM

We all know Chris Canty and Ahmad Bradshaw were recently released by the Giants this Wed afternoon and are now FA.

What would u guys think of adding Chris Canty as a rotational player on the line at DE and NT for the right price? i think its a very intriguing topic. his size(6'7, 318lbs) is great for the 3-4, just not sure how he would transition. i think a rotation of Canty, Hicks & Bunkley would be great so that we could focus more on other positions in the draft such as OLB/DE, CB/S & OL. let me hear some feedback. WHO DAT

canty would be a great mentor for Hicks. Keep Bunkley out of his head

Key words, right price. Right price? Hell yeah! What, we have about $3.95 of cap space now, right?

This was already brought up in the "released free agents" thread, so it might be good to try and keep all these discussions in a single thread.

But as far as your comment goes, yes I think Canty could be a great pick up, but it depends so much on how much he'll be asking for in wages, is he healthy enough to be a contributor, can he stay healthy for an entire season, will he fit the scheme the Saints are going to run, and finally, if the new DC will want Canty.

Nothing against Canty but I would like to get a young bull in the draft at NT or DE. I would be a little scared of the transition from 4-3 t0 3-4 in his case. Bunkley is going to rule in the 3-4.

If I'm not mistaken, didn't Canty play as a DE in a 3-4 when he was with the Cowgirls?!
