Very exciting!

The Jags are apparently trading a 6th rounder to the Vikings for Troy Williamson. That makes me happy.

Most of the good FA's have already got the franchise tag though

 

[Cotton]

Yea I saw that in the news yesterday. I'm disappointed that the Giants aren't going to resign Gibril Wilson. Especially when James Butler is horrible at Safety. Sounds like we're starting from scratch at Safety again.

Although rumor has it we're going to trade our 31st pick for Deangelo Hall. Although he isn't a safety he is a damn good corner.

 

[dt3]

Heck, I don't think you guys need Hall. He's a troublemaker. And they shutdown Tom freakin Brady with the guys they have now. The way the rules are skewed in favor of offense now, I think the days of needing great shutdown corners are over. The Giants proved (to me at least) that it's all about the pass rush now.

I would LOVE to see the Jags go after Wilson. He's a hell of a safety, and young too. Exactly what we need.

 

[Cotton]

Yea I hear ya. Webster, after being benched, stepped up BIG time in the playoffs. Aaron Ross was a great draft pick up. I could do without Hall personally, because I think the Giants have a good group that works well together. I don't want one of these cancer type players coming into the locker room.

Yea I'm really disappointed about the Wilson thing. Apparently he wants a 5 million deal, and they don't think he is worth that much. They think he is a good Safety but not great.

Not sure who they think they can get to fill his spot, and also replace Butler..

 

[dt3]

I had no idea they weren't gonna keep Wilson. Now I really have my hopes up for the Jags getting him. We've got something like $40 Million in cap room, which puts us WAY under the minimum for next year. They need somewhere to throw the money (besides Garrard's new contract).

 

[Cotton]

Well who knows if they are or not. From what I read they aren't willing to pay what he is looking for.

Because like I said they think he is just good not great. So I guess we'll find after tomorrow.

 

[dt3]

*Crosses fingers*

 

[Cotton]

Yea I have no idea what is up with that thinking, but hey Reese made hardly any moves last FA and we won the Superbowl so I guess I should have faith in him as GM.

 

[Cotton]

It appears as if the Raiders are going to offer Gibril Wilson a 5 year deal for 32 million.

 

[dt3]

Damn, I like the guy, but that's way too expensive for a safety. It's not like it's a premium position or anything.

 

[Cotton]

I know and it's not like he is a total shut down player. He's a good safty, but damn that's a lot of money.

 

[Cotton]

Wow and now Kavika Mitchell has signed with the Bills.

I sure hope our GM has some magic up his sleeve.

 

[Cotton]

Here ya go dt3...

Jerry Porter has signed a six-year,$30 million contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars according to Adam Schefter of the NFL Network.
