Re: Schien: Rhodes will be traded to Arizona I agree, but we'd have to front a significant portion of Rolle's demands in a signing bonus (which doesn't count towards the 30% rule) AND hope a new cap in the future doesn't prorate bonuses from this year. Otherwise, it's cap hell in the making. Rolle + a 3rd would be optimal. I really hate the idea of trading Rhodes only to spend our 1st or 2nd on his replacement.
Per Schefter's Twitter: http://twitter.com/Adam_Schefter/status/9947668511 Looks like the Jets will not be reconsidering their tender offer which puts the acquisition of Boldin very much in doubt.
I don't think we'd have to take a safety that high. This draft is loaded at the position. Also, we can fill that hole in free agency...the player we sign may not be as much of a playmaker, but there's no way he can be worse at tackling and pursuit.
Does anyone really think that a team is going to offer Antrell Rolle an $8million/year contract? That number is going to come way down by Saturday.
Some dumbass general manager might over pay him because the market for safeties is so horrible. This is good news for us though. I'm sure a lot of teams will be calling the Jets about the availability of Kerry Rhodes.
Do the Redskins need anyone to play next to Landry? http://theredzone.org/BlogDescripti...y-around-like-playing--Monopoly-/Default.aspx
How would you guys rather have a 3rd rounder then Boldin? For me I need a 2nd rounder to pass up on Boldin.
Hes 30 and injury prone. Id rather a 3rd round guy with a future, than an old injured guy who is getting ready for the glue factory.
1. he wants a new deal.we already have enough players to get new deals 2. he's old 3. he is injury prone 4. we are set at wr1 and wr2. 5. we are a run first team.we don't throw enough to justify the amount of $ that would be tied up at the wr spot 6. deep draft.the more picks the better. i think that about covers it
At first I thought the Jets would be nuts to take a 3rd over Boldin, but I think with the depth of the draft and Tanny's ability to pull something out of his sleeve, the 3rd might be better. Either way though, that would be awesome.
Has anyone mentioned the fact that Boldin may not be too happy about joining the team that broke his face?
He texted Smith from the hospital to tell him not to change his playing style. I doubt there is a problem there.
