Herms wife is calling the shots
 

Q: You had Jon McGraw in New York. Did you seek him out or did the organization do it or did he come to you?

EDWARDS: “The wives started talking again. My wife knew his wife. It’s kind of ironic and this is a true story and the kind of kid Jon McGraw is and his family is. My wife was pregnant with our first child and his wife came over to the hospital and stayed with my wife for about 20 hours. But the story’s better: we traded Jon McGraw to Detroit. He was going to Detroit and his wife is staying with my wife at the hospital. That’s the kind of people they are. That’s what you’re getting with Jon McGraw and his wife.

“When it all transpired and he was going to be a free agent and Detroit was trying to get him back, the wives spoke and I was going to Indianapolis to the [scouting] Combine and he was packing his car to go back to Detroit. My wife said, ‘you’ve got to call him.’ I said, OK, and I called Jon and talked to him and asked him what he was doing.. I said, ‘you’re not going back’ and now he’s here.”

McGraw will be a good special teamer and he obviously has some convictions in life. I'm okay with considering the guy's character.

lol yea I noticed that in the other thread

i don't like that much

i want coaches to decide the team by talent ... not by friendships

Couldn't his wife be friend's of Dwight Freeney's wife, and maybe Jason Taylor?

I would prefer that we go after guys we don't know too. :rolleyes:

Thats happens no matter what for the most part. Just most coaches arent that dumb to announce it to the media

Reeks of DV

Let the overreaction and non-stop crying begin.

No shit.

Something tells me the mods are in no hurry to change back to The Lounge from Panic Planet.

And why should they be? It's a perfect fit.

That, and "PanicOverreactionNon-StopCryingChickenLittleBullshit" Planet is too long......

Yep, they should have learned that with Dick.

It's ok to get people you know if they're actually good.

let the crying and bitching about the crying and bitching begin.

My head hurts now :(

omg, lets over react to a guy thats solid on special teams.!!!!!!!!
