Denver should have signed Dwan Edwards. He could start at 5 technique for their defense, is 3 years younger, and definitely would not command a contract of that size.

I agree. What's with this win-now crap? The don't-win-for-20-years plan is the respectable way to go. Kudos to KC for not falling for that win-now garbage.

Uh.... to the glue factory!

Patriots beat writers are also noting that Green was a top notch locker room guy, for what it is worth.

But yeah, they're mostly reiterating what I said. "Super-sub", and "2009 proved he's not really a 16 game starter at 3-4 DE".

I would have loved to have seen him in KC.....until I saw that contract.

Yall can have em

I don't know how much Jones has left but at that price you can sure afford to find out.

If a team wants to spend money this is definitely the year to do it. You know..... because there is no salary cap.

ya know what the long term problem is with that?

When you go to extend the contracts of your current players and negotiations break down because the agents use that huge contract you signed with that ancient player against you.

Overpaying for players is a shortsighted way of building a team with or without a cap.

Brandon Marshall, DJ and Elvis Dumervil are gonna have much more leverage in negotiations because their agents see the team paying top dollar for past prime players, so they know they can likely demand absolute top dollar for their prime clients.

I wouldnt be surprised if 2/3 of those guys hit the open market next year

just watch

True, though there may be one in the future. Certainly not saying this one's gonna break the bank, but you do still have to consider the long-term or a team could end up in cap hell once the cap (hopefully) is reinstated.

It's only money and it's not my money... :D

I have no idea what Dwan Edwards is targeting, but something didn't work out. Hopefully the triceps injury is a thing of the past for Williams and with Green, that's two easy upgrades for that front 7.

Sure, they're over 30, but they appear to be by all accounts very solid guys and leaders, so it can't hurt.
