looking at how portis and some others contracts balloon after next year i kinda thought marcus could be moved to make some cap space, hes set to make alil under $6.5 M the next couple of years which aint bad compared to the around $10M year contracts for recent OLB freeagents such as peterson, a. thomas but im starting to become a real believer in loading up on mid - late first to third round picks . . .

briggs (3rd rounder) has had 126, 107, 134 tackles last 3 years at a whooping $380k a year

s merriman signed a 5 yr $11-15 M contract
d. ware 5 yr $13M
even 1st rounder LBs sign relatively cheap

lets hope mcintosh becomes a young force and we develop more of our own for cheap, briggs wants to get paid (as he should) like a. thomas but washington (who had 93 tackles and 7.5 sacks last year) for $6.5/yr sounds good to me, hes what we call a core skin

lets save those big FA signings when were 1 player away from a SB run

go skins!
