I think Lawson would have been a good signing as strictly a player...but nobody here knows why NOBODY wanted him and he was forced to take a lowball deal from a lowball franchise....all Im saying is there is OBVIOUSLY something out there that made teams stay away. Not sure why you got mad about that, but whatever...I guess some here get a little too emotionally invested into disliking Pioli and falling in love with their own takes on players.
That whole paragraph about Franklin is crap. NFL teams obviously dont agree with you on this, not just poor old Pioli and his cheapass handler.
You are right though, I will stop talking about Franklin now....he only got a 1 year deal from a 4-3 team...even when other guys like Barry Coefield got big money long term contracts with 3-4 teams. FTR he was on a 1 year deal last year when he shit the bed...a one year deal worth almost 8 million dollars and if he showed up and proved he was worth it, he might have made 50 million on a long term contract with the Redskins....he didnt and he had to settle for another year of "prove it"
Lamar Hunt pushed the salary cap limit almost every year.
Nice job pissing on his grave though.

btw- did you notice Franklin was absent the final half of that 9er game? He was pulled? Might have raised hell and contributed to coach's firing? Not that I wouldn't fire him. Hell, I would have found a guy to replace him at the end of the previous year. Singletary was a great on the field, but I don't see how anyone could think he was going to pull off HC. Not a good communicator at all and can't handle the entertainment side of pro football.
