Oh brother-why can't we just sign everyone that has high caliber talent on every little key position? Get Ocho, Boldin, Roy, Jared Allen, DRC, Lito, etc. Why not dig Reggie White from the grave why we're at it.


I will have to go on record saying I am against grave desecration. Moreover, I am sure it would cost too much money to have Reggie White dug up. Since he would not be able to play out the terms of his contract we would end up having to cut him and we would have additional dead money (no pun intended) against the cap. Besides, being dead would severely hamper his pass rushing abilities, which is why you want him on your team in the first place.

We could redraft Quintsy Carter as well, but I really don't think it would be prudent to do so.

To pay a guy that is really the best kick returner in history, but not developed at WR has a lot of risk to it.

The guy has the skills to be a decent WR but how long will it take to develop those skills. And will they ever develop?

Depends on how much money he wants I guess. He would definitely be a good asset though.

I'd pay him serious money for his kick return skills alone.

And when will Irvin and Sanders realize that they should become agents?

They'd be naturals, though they'd need a behind-the-scenes guy to frame contracts and negotiate.

Just b/c a player "knows" or books an interview with A.) Michael Irvin, or B.) Deion Sanders should have ABSOLUTELY no place in the discussion when we are spitballing what players we should drag in here. It is completely irrelevant.

It is very relevant in that communication can be had between, say, Jerry and the player. Jerry talks to Sanders and Mike. They have access to what Jerry may feel like about a player. That info can go both ways. That is a relevent thing.

I think that I saw the old FSU boy Watkins stop the U boy Hester dead in his tracks when we played them.

Has potential to be a good wide receiver BUT!, he's not worth the money that he might be asking for...

Not worth it. He is absolutely just a KR. He sucks as a WR.

would it have any merit to the argument (or excuse) to ask which QB has been throwing Hester the ball? They haven't exactly been setting the NFL on fire at the QB position in Chi.

Doesn't really matter, I don't think. He has terrible hands and body control when catching the ball. Think Miles Austin only worse, much worse.
