Report: Redskins Agree to Terms with Barry Cofield

[SmootSmack]

Pretty good deal if the rumors are true, 6 years at $36 million. Hopefully he's like the last Giants DT we got, if not better.

I would hope he's better than Anthony Bryant for 6 years at 36 mil lol. But tbh, I think you're talking about Cornie Griffin. And if he was that good I'd def. be happy, I remember how good Griffin was in 2004, he definitely should've been a Pro Bowler that year. Also since I was diggin around for Cofield info and tidbits, anybody remember this?

LANDOVER, MD. - Giants defensive tackle Barry Cofield was probably a little upset Sunday night after a Green Bay victory eliminated his squad from playoff contention. But instead of blaming himself and teammates for last week's embarrassing 45-17 loss to the Packers that essentially ended their season, he started taking potshots at the team his Giants had just beaten in the Redskins.

"You know, their fans were all cheering and what not," he said after the game. "That shows you the state of their team, that they were cheering about us failing. That's when you have no success, those are the kind of things that excite you."

Cofield said this in response to the Redskins fans who began to chant "Green Bay won! Green Bay won!" when it was announced on the FedEx Field Jumbotron that the Packers had knocked off the Bears, clinching themselves the final wild card spot at the Giants' expense.

Sounds like he has 36 million reasons not to trash our fanbase now.

I think he means younger AND cheaper. The giants apparantly have guys they think will fill in well that are still in their rookie contracts. Not that Cofield is old, but the giants just have other priorities of where to spend their money, and would prefer to replace cofield with young/cheep talent and spend the money elsewhere.

In general the Giants do seem to be getting younger, of course not 100% of their moves will reflect that (like when I believe they will give Osi a big contract).
