Re: Fitzgerald a Saint ?

He's going to get cut or his salary will be renegotiated. Either way AZ will not pay $18 million for a receiver who touches the ball 6 times a game.

If he stays at AZ, then he knows he's at least 3 years away from the playoffs due to the personnel/draft structure of the whiners and hags. If he's serious about a ring, he's going to have to leave, and he's going to take a hit on salary. If you look at the teams structured to win in the next 3 years, there's no cap room for a hit this big. Not even and especially in NO.

Re: Fitzgerald a Saint ?

I'd love to have him but resigning Graham is a much bigger priority.

Sign an aging future HoF'er Fitz or sign a blooming future HoF'er Graham.

Man, those kind of decisions sure are tough...

Colston is set to make 8+ Million next year. If we can cut him clean and free I'd take Larry

Keeping Colston costs us 8 million
Cutting Colston costs us 10 million

I'm thinking we keep him.

I was afraid of that, sounds like you're right. We better find a way to get that dude to take a paycut, because that is a little too high

Cut Colston? Where's this madness coming from?
