2011 NFL Free Agency-Part 3

yea most likely. Probably he means no starting chance with his tweet about not a second glance. He is a good guy on twitter and everyone loves him on there but be careful haha

He's just frustrated that not only is he not penciled in as the starter but that he can't even fight for the spot right now since he's on the PUP list.

But, I said this last year, the team is very high on Riley. So even if he could compete for the spot, good luck taking it from Riley

yea not surprised with henson. sucks but that happens

musicmaster45 · 08-02-2011, 10:50 PM

I'll give you that. He was beastly, circa 05-07. 08-present has been spotty though. Because he's had injury problems, and hasn't looked the same on the field. He's still good as a MLB in a 4-3. But we don't even have an idea if he might be good in a 3-4, and if he wants big money, fuggedaboudit.

Yup. In each of the last 3 years his tackle numbers have dropped significantly since his early years in the league.

250 lbs? I say sign me up. I don't get the injury concerns. I mean he's only had one season where he didn't play 15 games.

Bottom Line: IF Tatupu stays healthy he'll be a Top ILB this yr. Don't know him, but I think he wants to prove he still has it. What better division than the NFC East? Hopefully we'll sign both Hayden and Tatupu to a 1-3 yr deal w/ incentives, and they both can help our D this year.

Bottom line is he might be a Pro Bowl linebacker in a 4-3 when healthy. Go ask Rocky McIntosh if playing in a 4-3 is the same as playing in a 3-4.

I do agree with you he probably does want to prove he's still dominant, but that remains to be seen. Especially since he's never played in a 3-4 before. If we bring him in on an incentive deal I wouldn't be upset, but I'd also want to make him earn his starting spot.

I really do think Riley, if given the chance to start, will prove himself this season. But you never know, I'm not a coach, and if a coach decides it wouldn't hurt to bring him in, then he'll be here.

Tatupu is the key to finally beating Seattle in the Playoffs.

Also NYC, I feel like your reverse trolling me but in the off chance that your not joking around, I apologize for not making the sarcasm in my post more clear.

musicmaster45 · 08-02-2011, 11:01 PM

Not as big on Hayden, because i like Barnes i guess but i always could be worng and he might be a great addition

I like Barnes too, but I think he's a better FS than a CB.

musicmaster45 · 08-02-2011, 11:16 PM

We will see tomorrow i guess

Dirtbag59 · 08-02-2011, 11:18 PM

Damnit no, see this is the problem with being the last post in a page. Your crucial apology to prevent any further misunderstandings gets pushed back and in some cases never gets seen by the person your apologizing to. So NYC again in the off chance you weren't kidding around I'm sorry. Bad job on my part of not making sarcasm more clear.
