there's a lot of teams that can pounce on the chance... the raiders aren't the only team in the league with the opportunity.Quote:

Fuck that Indy better sign Suh or Hardy. I'm tired of watching a tissue paper soft defense every year.

:lol Holden_Caulfield
at this point, tea leaves seem to suggest Suh to Miami, Cobb/Pot Roast to oakland
If Kareem Jackson is getting that much money god only knows how much Revis/McCourty are gonna command. Fuck.
i'd just leave mccourty and revis tbh, let other teams fuck their future.If mccourty can be signed for a normal figure ok, but revis, just fuck him.
Not sure why Pats fans are surprised, a money/contract whore like Revis was never going to last long with a penny-pincher like Kraft.
:lol right, fuck the single biggest reason our secondary didn't massively suck this year like it did the previous 4-5 years. Revis is way more valuable than McCourty.Quote:

Revis took less money to come to NE last year (he had bigger offers), and I'm not sure how Kraft is cheap. He's spent money whenever Belichick has wanted him to, and the Patriots are struggling to get under the cap right now.Quote:

Tuesday should be fun....Jags & Raiders with a lot of $$$ to spend.
Cobb re-signed with the Packers... 4 years 40 mil
damn
IMO it's a blessing in disguise for Oakland. Granted, Carr is better than the trash Minny has had at QB recently, but I didn't see Cobb being any better on a rebuilding team than Jennings has been for the Vikings.Quote:

IMO they should go easy on free agent spending. I know it's easy to say as a NE fan but when teams spend huge in free agency it rarely ever works.Quote:
