Re: Lavar to the Giants?
 

[quote=Dirtbag359]I almost forgot about that whole Plax deal last year. However what I still don't get is how paying Lavar with the same deal as Julian Peterson is too much. IMO they're at the same level with LaVar getting a slight edge due to more natural talent.[/quote]

lavar underachieves due to reliance on natural talent that will degrade over time. And he' coming off a masive injury and a benching for a trash player. Julian got too much, so lavar getting the same deal would be way too much.

julian peterson pays more attention to technique and is much more sound. Seattle vastly overpaid (blowing away the next best offer quite handily), so lavar's best option is going to be way less. Just cause the hawks decided to be stupid doesn't mean lavar will get the same luck.

[B]Giants | Team to visit with Arrington again[/B]
Thu, 20 Apr 2006 05:47:06 -0700

Ralph Vacchiano, of the New York Daily News, reports free agent LB LaVar Arrington (Redskins) will have a second visit with the New York Giants Thursday, April 20. The team is back in the Arrington chase, and this time it appears Arrington may be serious about striking a deal. Arrington has even agreed to undergo a physical, something he declined to do when he first visited the Giants March 11-12. That's an important concession for Arrington because of league-wide concerns about the health of his surgically repaired right knee. According to Kyle Harden, an associate to Arrington's agents, Arrington intends to sign with someone before the April 29 NFL Draft - possibly even in the next few days. Harden said the Giants are the only team Arrington is planning to visit before the draft. Yesterday, Harden did not give any indication that Arrington's asking price will go down. "The team that gets LaVar is getting a three-time Pro Bowler," he said. "LaVar is looking for a fair-market deal." If Arrington passes the physical, a Giants source said they would be willing to re-open negotiations if his price is reasonable.

Re: Lavar to the Giants?
 

[QUOTE=Redskins_P]I just heard on the radio (980 AM) that apparently Lavar is about to sign a 6 yr deal w/ the Giants.

Sorry fellas, I have no link or details on the contract. If anyone finds something related, please help me out and post it.[/QUOTE]

Im not rip on Redskins_P for this but this getting old he ( Lavar ) taking his time to find a team and it looks like nobody wants him for his asking price.

Re: Lavar to the Giants?
 

this is almost as bad as high school

Re: Lavar to the Giants?
 

How about this, let's stop caring about where he goes because no matter where he goes he's going to play he just may end up seeing the Skins. If he does it'll be just like when the Skins play any other team that has one of our former players. Myself I don't give a shiggity because unless he resigns I won't be cheering for his team. If he goes to the Giants then he goes to the Giants. Let him sign somewhere and start talking for us to give him some more attention.

Re: Lavar to the Giants?
 

I think we got the best years out of Lavar. He will never be as good as he was. Injuries and another new system to learn will limit him, no matter where he goes. Hey, if he goes to the G-men, good for him and I hope he gets a big contract. It will just tie up more of their money on a player that is over the hill.

Re: Lavar to the Giants?
 

He's apparently agreed to get a physical done with the Giants today. Something he hadn't agreed to on a previous visit.

I agree 100%. I think he's overrated.
