Gilberry like said should be resigned if the price is right. If some 43 team decides to throw big money at him, I'd let him walk.

GOOD teams fill holes with expensive FAs.

You draft your core, especially at QB, and then spend money to fill in the gaps with established players.

We're basically doing it the OPPOSITE of the way good teams do it.

O.city · 02-10-2012, 05:42 PM

Well we have done it that way, save for our qb. Our core is set thru the draft, now we just have to get a qb.

Which we can do next year after we get Richardson in the first this year.

Truth.

Boss is trying his best to be positive.

He's the guy still playing the violin while the Titanic is sinking.

I guess I'm the one playing the bass. I'm trying to be positive but it keeps getting tougher and tougher.

**The Bad Guy** · 02-10-2012, 05:46 PM

Yeah, Gilberry isn't a big loss. He bulked up, was supposed to be better, and just wasn't.

Bailey could fill Gilberry's spot.

It also helps that we resigned Jamaal Charles and DJ well under the market value

Yes, you are the only one.

The cap was not in great shape, ever with Carl. Every other year he'd go on a spending spree, and then the following year we couldn't spend shit.

O.city · 02-10-2012, 05:49 PM

Bad Guy, was it you that said Bowe was wanting Holmes money?

Collectively blow us, Pioli.

i think that would have be 'collectively blow us, Clark'

he's the money man

Mr. Laz · 02-10-2012, 05:56 PM

IF TRUE ... we could afford Bowe,Carr AND still sign Payton Manning.

O.city · 02-10-2012, 06:01 PM

Laz if thats true we could sign Bowe and Carr, make runs at Manning, Grubbs, and Soliai and probably still be alright.

KCrockaholic · 02-10-2012, 06:02 PM

Let's sign Paytin Mannys.

Easy. He had a good impact on limited snaps. If he starts getting some of Gilberry's too, he shouldn't disappoint.
