According to the NY Daily News, free agent Brandon Jacobs is seeking a contract similar to the one Dallas gave Marion Barber last offseason.

Barber's pays $45M over seven years with $16M guaranteed. Jacobs is one of the five most physically gifted backs in the league, but his inability to play a 16-game schedule makes him risky at that price tag. Jacobs said that he is "confident" a deal will be reached before the Feb. 27 free agency period, but the Giants haven't come close to meeting his asking price yet. Jan. 30 - 7:40 am et

He's a physical runner who's better than Barber so I don't blame him. But with his weight and the way he runs I don't see him holding up for more than 3 years.

Barber looks to be overpaid like 75% of the people we "locked up," but the O-Line didn't do him any favors.

He goes down like a sack of rocks if he's not squared up, and he's soft. He's in Barber's class, but he's not better than Barber.

He has no leverage.

Take Plax AND Jacobs away from Sheli.... no way.

He will get paid. He produces.

Why? What did he do?


How about spiking the ball against the game clock at Texas Stadium when they beat us in the playoffs two years ago?

The Cowboys should have never let him get in there.

I hope that next year, when Barber is healthy and the scheme is better, he shuts all of you fools up saying he sucks.

Who can blame him? He's a much better every down back than Barber. While Barber has talent, he aint worth the money JJ threw his way. Fact.
