Two 8th rounders and a table dance from Rob Ryan should get us a 3rd. ;)

No surprise to see that they are reportedly "shopping" these guys. I thought we would cut ties with Lance as early as last month but not so much Sproles & Pierre.

To be continued ...

It would be weird to not see all those names on the team sheet when the new season begins.

Still, I guess business is business as they say, I guess the coaches and front office know what they are doing! Gulp!

If i was a team like the Colts,Browns id be looking at both Thomas and Moore.
Moore would be a excellent receiver for both teams and the Colts could do with a good RB a Richardson isnt getting it done and Thomas can pick up a Blitz and offer Luck or a Browns rookie a solid safety blanket.

The texans would be wise to try and get Thomas too,$2.9ml or less if you extend would give them a normally healthy RB with plenty of tread on the tires to take the work load of Foster.

Love all three, but the only that would really hurt is PT.
Production of Sproles & Moore was way down, and neither is cheap. PT is a bargain in comparison

and as stated above, what could we get? Smart GM's will just wait until we cut them and get either at a better price. Why pay Moore $5m when you could have the Saints pay half?

As long as Ingram is gone then I'll be happy. PT still has tread on the tires and Moore could redo his contract and stay home.

They're shopping all of them hoping we get something for one of them.

I seriously doubt we get rid of all of them.

We just need some cap room that one of them, maybe two, could provide.

And wanting to trading Ingram is not very wise.

Hoss.... Mike Smith would take all 3 just to keep us from having them for two games a season.:bng:

So what could we get in return? If we are trying to clear cap space then signing a free agent would have to be for cheap.

Basically what we would get in return is someone willing to eat one of the salaries, giving us five million in cap space
Adding a 5th or 6th would just be gravy.
