Boling would've been nice, but I'm still holding out hope for Taylor Mays. That's really the only guy I really wanted a lot. There's question marks at LT, RB, most of LB core, G, and CB, but I think SS is the only thing that'd be hard to address in house or in the draft.

McClain and Spikes are still out there if they want to bring in somebody inside LB. Otherwise I say go old school and bring in Harrison and Briggs and sub in youth on 3rd down. Greenway/Briggs/Harrison sounds fun to me, maybe i'm a weirdo.

they've been warning us for a month that they are going to take it slow, i'm not surprised they haven't made a big splash yet

I'm glad that they didn't do what the Giants just did and give a bunch of huge contracts to mediocre players.

I take that back, I forgot about Exum - he's got a lot of talent. I think he can be a starting SS in this league.

Having Exum on the field and Mays as a quasi-WLB in the nickel packages would be really nice.

i wonder if they are waiting for the peterson ball to drop before getting on with other things - might be moving now that murray has signed

and i guess we're in talks with everyone who zimmer coached in cinncy

I know crazy, and a waste of several draft picks. Just read we trades for Mike Wallace! We gave the dolphins a 5th round and we received a 7th.

holy smokes what?????????

Crazy, I don't know what to make of that. Why was Miami looking to move him? Does this mean we're not looking receiver in the 1st? Does it mean we need to move Peterson's contract?

hermes · Post #34 » by **hermes** » Sat Mar 14, 2015 12:00 am

people seem to think that his contract is going to be restructured (otherwise why would we have traded for him) but i haven't seen anything saying so

and yeah, wr is probably off the table - but maybe we don't keep jennings which i don't know why we wouldn't

Miami was looking to move him because Wallace and the coaches had conflicting opinions about how he was used. It's been well documented the dolphins haven't used him the way they should of. I hope he restructures, but I doubt it. I like the move. Wallace, Jennings, Johnson, and Wright is a solid core. My guess is AP is traded. Now hopefully we can draft Collins, Scherf, or Thompson.

I like the trade! I think AP stays. We're not going to give him away for nothing.. Time can heal a relationship, and I think the front office is giving AP time. Sick offense if AP dose play here next season.

Would've preferred to trade for Stills or sign Torrey Smith(or Desean Jackson last year for that matter), but Wallace is still an improvement over Jennings, so why not. Hopefully he's not a crybaby.

Jennings wasn't in the top 30 of WRs last year, but he's making 9 mil. That cut should be automatic with or without Wallace.

rumors are flying all over about whether he's restructured or not, he probably won't (this year anyway) - and they have the cap room to have him anyway i think. they still can restructure greenway (and maybe jennings - but i doubt that)
