Just say No to Kearse, JG!

Check out this quote from Gibbs on Daniels:

Quote:

Said head coach Joe Gibbs: “Phillip is someone who is very versatile—he can play all the way across the board. He’s the right kind of person, which is very important. As soon as it came across that we could talk to him, he was the first guy we wanted to get on the plane and get him here.”

A high character guy ... par for the course for JG.

He could end up playing DT, but what i like about this pickup is that the DLine is being completely rebuilt, not just patched up.

With GWilliams here tho, like it or not, I think signing Kearse is practically a done-deal. I'd be surprised if we don't sign him at this point- and early.

And while i'm not sold that he'll be worth the money, there's a great chance he could return to form w/ a new team. Especially with some help around him like Wistrom or CGriffin.

I heard that Wistrom is almost certainly going to KC. He could be the Chiefs' "first day signing".

Has anyone heard the actual amount the contract is worth? I've only read that its five years in length and I find it hard to believe his price is anywhere near the $3 million mark like another member posting seemed to believe. that was the salary he was to make before being cut and the skins aren't picking up his old contract if I'm not mistaken. Who do you guys wish we go for as our pass rusher: Kearse or Barry? I don't know anything about barry except that someone posted that he had 11.5 sacks last year. anyone know his age, height, weight, reported work habit, and his injury record?

I just heard on ESPNNews that M. Wiley of the Chargers got cut and was wondering if anyone other than myself thinks we should try to sign him. He's a good, consistent player who would come cheaper than kearse or Barry even though I like the idea of Barry signing here.

This waiting is killing me!!! It's 11am in London... where's my free agents?!!! (stamping foot).... I think Dan has spoiled me.

:confused:

With only about $7 mil in cap room left at this point, once we pick up a boatload of defensive players and a tight end, especially if we sign some bigger names like Kearse, what are the odds that we'll have enough left over to draft someone like Sean Taylor? For you cap specialists, *elbows Canuck* how much cap room do you think we'd need in order to get Taylor signed?
