I know it is already posted that Cowboys are interested in Vanderjagt, but if so, they better be doing more then expressing interest. Came across below item on KFFL. Concerned that if he does visit NE, they won't let him leave w/o signing a contract -- which of course lessens significantly number of viable kickers. Of course, I'm assuming Miami decides hold on to Mare & Seattle will ensure Brown remains with them.


Patriots | Team will talk contract with Vanderjagt
Tue, 21 Mar 2006 19:53:37 -0800
Bill Burt, of the Daily News, reports free agent PK <A href="http://www.kffl.com/player/855/nfl">Mike Vanderjagt (Colts) and his agent, Gil Scott, are planning a visit to Foxboro within the next two days to talk contract with the New England Patriots. "We've been in some discussions," said Scott regarding the Patriots. "New England is an attractive place. They're a championship team. They're a Super Bowl contender. Let's just say there is mutual interest." As for potentially making the switch from indoors to the northeast, Vanderjagt's agent said his client would welcome the chilly climate. "People forget that Mike kicked for two years in Canada," said Scott, referring to the Canadian Football League. Scott says Vanderjagt's list of possible teams next season is New England, the Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys.

Josh Brown needs to be our TOP priority as of right NOW!!!

We need to stop screwing around with this. two years fromnow this will be a measily contract for kickers.

If Vangerjagt goes to New England, we're really screwed. Miami won't be releasing Mare then, and our lone hope will essentially be offering something up for Brown. But odds are, Seattle will be prepared to match any and every offer.

At that point that should be a no-brainer for Seattle...match our offer because they know there is no one left on the market...

I agree that the Seahawks will not let Brown go considering they are more under the cap than we are, and plus they would have a hard time getting another good kicker, and this is especially true if they want to win the superbowl, so I think our best option is to go after Vanderjagt because you never know what is going to happen with the Mare and Brown situation.
