Most of these guys are either 30 or approaching 30 and there will be better, cheaper options available in the Draft.

Would Kevin Walter be nice? Sure... But Golden Tate would be better.
Iupati, Ducasse, Berry, Nate Allen, Chad Jones...All look like better options than aging vets who, in some cases, are going to cost you big coin.

I'm okay with it. Would like to see them at least make a run at Atogwe though.

You act as if those guys will be there when we draft.

I know there is no cap this year, but if it were equivalent to the cap last year, are we $80~million under the cap right now? Our pay roll is just over $40 million and the cap was $124 million (Something like that) last year.

What the **** are they saving their money on, a controlling share of the Patriots or something?

There's no sense throwing ungodly amounts of money to guys because they're the only ones available. I'm glad they didn't pursue Peppers for 90 million. I'm glad they didn't go after Dansby since he's now making more than Ray Lewis amongst others equally high profile ILB's.

Kevin Walters is a guy we should've went after and been willing "overpay" a little bit. Otogwe is another guy we need to get in here and get signed.

Honestly though, at this point the only way they're really going to piss me the **** off is if they let Chris Chambers slip away. I don't care what he costs, he's proven his value to us.

Haley would be looking like a dip**** over that 22 guys off the street bullshit if it wasn't for Chris ****ing Chambers. GET THE MAN SIGNED. TODAY!

We'll have a chance at quite a few of those players.
We have a shot at Berry...
The 2nd Round will give us an option to draft an Arrelious Benn, Marshawn Gilyard, Chad Jones or Nate Allen.

I wouldn't be surprised at all to see us come away with two of them.
If we don't...it won't be because the opportunity wasn't there.
