Free Agent Wish List...

[ThreeSportStar80]

1. Asanti Samuel, he's young and a ball hawk, move Anthony Henry to FS (another ball hawk).
2. Adalius Thomas, he's a high motor guy with great ability, great fit opposite of Demarcus Ware!
3. A guard to replace Rivera, although that could come in the draft...

 

[ultra5]

let's hope and pray we "kill it" in the draft this year.

i'd be thrilled to stockpile some more picks.

please Mr. Ireland... work your magic kid.

 

[Natedawg44]

Samuel- I think he gets franchised
Thomas- we will be competing with alot of other franchises namely the Ravens, Bengals, 49ers to name a few if we decide to get in on that. I dont see it.

YEAH, I have dreams of Fasano and Skyler Green running thought my head.

Hey, anyone know abything about our young players? For instance, what happened to OT McQuistan? Is he still with the team? Montavious Stanley? EJ Whitley? Sam Hurd appears to be a player for us, possibly more at WR next year? Am I missing anyone?

McQ was active for the Seattle PO game. Look for him to make a push in camp.

Stanley was resigned. Let's hope he gets in top shape and comes ready for camp.

Whitley got hurt in minicamp and ended up on IR. I'd expect him back for camp. Looked like a good pass blocker but what do you expect from Texas Tech

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

New England probably won't franchise Samuel....

 

[Spectre]

Signing Samuel would mean we have 120 million dollars invested in our secondary alone.

Not gonna happen.

Considering the HOLE FS has become, we will do something there. Moving Henry is logical IF we can get a good CB to replace him. Moving good sized CB's that can tackle to FS after they have lost a step is a common thing- though more so years ago. Cornell Green was a top CB who transitioned to FS and was Pro Bowl there as well.

 

[burmafrd]

I agree that Thomas will be very expensive and will pretty much be able to choose his price and place. We might end up only being able to sign him and no other FA at all. So we would need to be VERY SURE about him.

Thomas will get frachised also

 

[Cbz40]

Thomas will get frachised also

With teams having more cap space than usual....that will be the case for most of the better FAs this year. They will either be frachised or signed to new deals and those that fall through the cracks will be very expensive.

I could see Thomas not getting the tag. I could see the Ravens not allowing themselves to be held hostage like that because they feel they can plug someone else in and get good enough production to allow their defense to remain on top. They don't need to shell out top dollar like that to ensure that he stays. It would be nice for the Ravens if he resigned and stayed but they aren't hurting for talent on that D.

Its not like Freeneys situation with the Colts where he is the only man they got over there. Thomas is just one of the many on that defense. They are loaded with talented guys over there.

I wouldn't be suprised to see Thomas hit the market.

 

[RealCowboyfan]

I would love to see Ashanti Sameul on the team and Adalius Thomas. GOOD IDEA

 

[Oh_Canada]

I'm not big on breaking the bank to sign Thomas....though I do like him.

Might make more sense to pick up a second tier linebacker who might have been in the wrong scheme instead and draft another young one (Anthony Spencer) to challenge for the spot.

The 'Boys don't need anymore overpaid, content players collecting paycheques.

Watkins is a much better player than Henry.

He also has something that Henry does not....

speed.

Ray Lewis is coming towards the end of his career so I can't see Balt letting a playmaker like him get away.

And Henry has something Watkins doesn't......experience

I cannot say it much better.

 

[WilmingtonHeel]

I would do this.

Shaun Phillips OLB SD
Kris Kielman OG SD or Steinbach Cincy
Deon Grant FS Jax
