Re: WFT Free Agency
Gibson already took over the show so that doesn't matter, although it sucks that we wasted a 4th round pick.

Re: WFT Free Agency
You don't draft solely based on need, you draft based on who you think has the highest chance of succeeding as a long term quality player in the NFL.
Given the percentages of third day draft picks that actually pan out I don't have a problem with the selection. If his injuries had healed properly he had the talent to succeed.

Exhibit A for going pro early. If he had left after his record setting junior year, no telling what his football future would be like. I feel for the kid. Uber talented, derailed by injury. It totally sucks. But he was studying to be a doctor. That path is obviously still open for him. Which is not a bad "second life choice" to have available. Best of luck to the kid. |

I think he'd be an excellent signing.

Oh yeah, totally agree ... but in his case, he would have been drafted higher than where we took him (prolly second round at worst). And who knows if he ever gets injured. His "problem" was his pursuit of his education, and dream of med school. You don't go pro early when that is also important to you. He's gonna be just fine. |

Re: WFT Free Agency
KJ Wright ... he wanted a 2 yr deal w the Boys and they wanted 1 yr .. they couldnt agree, cant find anything on money.
If we could get him for 2 yrs/14/7 guar .. I think he could be the rug to tie the whole thing together. A leader, decent at coverage and LOS, winner .. hopefully he doesnt turn into a DJ Swearinger where it just to much vocal |

I don't think we are going to sign any FA players until after the draft. I wouldn't oppose to the idea of signing Wright though, he is not fast as he was in the past but he has the smarts. |

Re: WFT Free Agency
Ok I see your point although I still think it's highly unlikely, simply because of Del-Rio, he knows how to call defense. Greg Manusky and Joe Barry aren't even close to Del-Rio's level.
