Around the NFL Free Agency Thread 2013

I'm really wary of Pashos.

Heres a picture of his foot after surgery.

CAUTION: Its kinda scary...not for the squeemish.

Well yes, but that's why we're paying him probably something around 900k-1 million and not 6+ million.

Good risk.

My money is on Pashos. When healthy in 2011, he was the 6th best OT in terms of PBE. Trent was 19th last year.. So yeah high praise for Tony.

Anyways again how does a CB depth chart of, Wilson, Crawford, Murphy suffice? Quarterbacks will have us highlighted in 6 different colors on their schedules. We'll get shredded.

Well, you also have Minnefield, 1-2 rookies, and a 2nd tier FA. We certainly aren't going to have a defensive backfield that scares qb's, so it will be another season of shoot out games most likely. I expect it's going to be a good thing our offense likely will be scoring 27-33 points per game.

Counting on Minnifield.. That's what it's come down to I guess.

You're right and the truth is I trust our front office to pluck a couple more Richard Crawford's in the draft, but we're playing with fire if these draft picks don't work out.

I haven't even mentioned safety.

Minnifield knee is bad. Kiem had an article in his email about the extent of it. I believe its a 2 torn acls and a microstress fracture surgery. No counting should be done with Minnifield, its only a bonus at this point.

You are right I mean Alfmo had nothing to do with our success last year. :doh:

Well that's exactly why I hesitated to say it.

We are counting on him as it stands.

No actually that's not what I said, because that would be foolish.

That's the safest way to go.

The FO is definately not coutning on Minnefield. A guy coming off 2 ACLs and micro fracture surgery has a lonnnnggg way to get back, and most likely will never be the same. (the micro fracture surgery being one of the biggest detriments to his career)

I posted last night, that when you have a defense ranked so poorly against the pass that we were able to keep who we could afford and filling out the rest with draft picks (remember this draft is deep at CB, S, and T). The thinking being we were 31st aginst the pass last year, we liked what we have we the rest of the team so they are priority number one. We (the FO) will fill out the defensive backfield with rookies and a 2nd tier FA here and there, and we honestly can't be much worse.
