Except that they signed Ruvell Martin. Unless they're looking for 2 guys like that (and they very well could be).

I've always said that better than bad does not equal good.

The corollary to that is that better than bad is STILL BETTER.

I agree. He is not that good. But, he is probably still better than Copper. I definitely didn't want to give up a draft pick for him, but I wouldn't mind taking a flier on him if we get him for a waiver claim.

Since we already gave Miami our 7th for O'Connell, and who knows what for the two O-linemen, I would have to agree with this one.

@Adam_SchefterWould be surprised if anyone claimed Hank Baskett on waivers today. They'd have to assume his $1.5 million contract -- I'd guess no one does

nice post Bill

Just saw that Tweet: So are we to assume that no one claimed Baskett?

I would think we'd have heard about it by now. What time was his release yesterday? Teams have 24 hours to claim him, correct?

Yeah but I think it would be end of business today, 5pm EST, before we know for sure.

you would think for 1.5 mil we would be all over him, we have money to spare for sure

Just because we have it doesn't mean we spend it unwisely.

Maybe, maybe not. For all we know, he doesn't fit their idea of the "Best 53".

I'm still trying to figure out Copper is in that equation.

Micjones 09-16-2009 11:37 AM
I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that he'll go to St. Louis.
They signed Ruvell Martin AND David Tyree's been in for a workout.

It would be unwise to upgrade the WR position with a player who is clearly better than the one who is currently occupying a roster spot?
