2014 Free Agency Rumors and or Speculation

[red]

get on the damn phone and go after byrd hard, he can be had for probably 7 million right now

thats a steal

[Guiness]

And Finley heads to Seattle for a physical. Not wasting any time, and I can't blame him...but did he have to start THERE? I wonder if the flight has a stopover in Chicago, he might as well visit the damn Bears while he's running around.

HOLY FUCK

TJ ward just signed with denver for 5.5 million a year

where is TT, these safeties are not getting huge sums, and we need a fucking safety

That's about $2.5 million less that I read he was estimated to be worth.

Where's Ted Thompson?

Same place he's always been. Inside of Ted Thompson. Can you imagine that man playing Texas Holdem? He'd have difficulty antying up.

Ted Thompson simply doesn't think fast. He's slower than cold molasses and seldom dressed to go out.

He redefines the word procrastination. You've got to love him.

its interesting because he still hasn't been cleared yet, even though we've been hearing for a couple weeks that he'll be cleared "any day now"

i still call BS on him being cleared this soon

seattle might give him an MRI and tell him "no thanks", and that could be curtains for him

Atlanta also signed the most productive DLman Vs the RUN off the Miami Dolphins (2013):

Comment: Atlanta is busy out of the gate.

Wow. They'll be in the Super Bowl next year, for sure.

red .....TT as usual isn't in the game. It's all easily predictable. The spots on that leopard won't change.

Well at least their trying Fritz.

The sky is falling, the sky is falling

no the sky isn't falling, but we are in massive need of a safety. to me its our #1 need this offseason

and good ones, and real improvements, are flying off the board left and right for bargains

and we're not in the mix, thats aggravating

did you expect anything else? I'm not surprised. I'll be more surprised if TT signs any safety other than some no name that was buried on someone's roster. My gut feeling is TT is not looking for a safety in FA. DL and a below average TE are my guesses.

The rumor is that Ted Thompson is still having his late afternoon nap.

He usually awakens around 5:30 - 6:00 PM CST. It'll be OK then.

Ted is having a bad yawning day.

byrd is going to visit with the saints, and the saints have only 2 million in cap space

i'm guessing we could beat whatever they offer

but we need to actually pick up the phone to do that, or be in the office
