Well, Jimmy currently has his "number" against the cap; we're waiting to see what the grievance hearing will have as effect on the contract negotiations; even if the number is adjusted, Graham could do a contract that would have a low cap number this year and get his big mo next season and thereafter...

Absolutely no chance in hell that this guy ends up in black and gold. We're loaded at the position for now, and we're cash strapped. We may end up adding an offensive tackle for depth....particularly at LT, but I think everything else is a done deal, barring any injuries, of course.

I compare this to Sproles situation. Salary, age, less effective... Someone will have unrealistic expectations and overpay this guy.

Champ Bailey is cheaper and just as effective.

Injury bug is catching up to him. But if we view our super bowl window as closing with each passing year because of Drews age then to make the move might be in the cards. as for the cap it would be all up to Mickey to pull another rabbit out his hat to sign him.

myself i would stay with what we got but if the saints did make the move i can see why. the window is closing in their opinion.

Don't care enough to find the link, but they're supposedly looking at Vilma too.

Yeah, they've got a lot of holes to fill.

I feel really bad for them.

Had me there for a second. Was already working on a "C'mon man!" for you.

Pioli working for the Failclowns makes it almost a sure thing that Flowers will join his former teammates on the Atlanta Chiefs. Seems like their whole offseason plan was to sign 700 nickel corners and defensive tackles.
