From Schefter:

49ers will use the tag on Safety Dashon Goldson and the Cardinals will use the tag on Calais Campbell.

He's also saying that the Chiefs will likely tag Bowe (which I think a lot of people figured this would happen).

[QUOTE=SmootSmack;888698]Who knows if he was telling the truth, but Moss said last week that he's in good financial shape[/QUOTE]

Well if he's willing to sign a deal that has no guaranteed money, then it must be true.

so bowe's gone and wallace is a non-starter (he'd cost a pick)... no confirms on grubbs, grimes, or the other WRs yet though (VJ, DJ, etc, and i'd take a flyer on the other moss too).

[quote=mooby;888590]If we get into a bidding war with someone else, idw him. "Test the market" sounds like "wants top dollar" to me.[/quote]

For one thing, he is a human being. Of course he wants the most money for his work. That does not make him greedy. It makes him stupid to sign a contract for a team that went 2-14 the previous season for a lowball amount because of some misplaced sense of loyalty to a team that isnt even being "loyal" to the qb that turned the franchise from a cellar dwellar into a contender for the super bowl each and every year.

In short, just cause he wants to see if he can get more money or get into a different situation doesn't make him greedy.

I would take a look at Castillo if he's released, I've always liked him, a high motor type player.
