All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
I hate this trade but what about a deal involving Arizona and Anquan Boldin. Only reason I even bring it up is that we could probably get him and Gandy for Peters. Yes, I know Gandy isn't out first choice but he played well enough to let their QB pass enough to get to a Super Bowl.
I think Arizona would be stupid to do it. They get a good LT to replace an average LT, and lose a premier WR.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
Owens pretty much assures us that this type of deal has little chance...
I would honestly pass on Gandy and look for another player of impact, and stick with the best T at #11 draft strategy. We already have Walker and Chambers, who IMO would be an equal LT to Gandy.
Ownes is a 1 year deal, locking Boldin up long term would be great.
I don't care that he wants more money than Peters. Boldin is a game changer, Peters is a o-linemen. If Peters wants 10 million dollars per year he better start learning to throw the ball, catch the ball, or sack the other teams QB. We already know he knows how to sack his own QB, 11.5.
I would trade Peters to Detroit for their R2 in 2009 and their R2 in 2010.
Both are likely to be high picks in their respective rounds as the Lions are unlikely to have a Dolphins like transformation.
In 2009, we can get our DE in R1, draft in R2 a LB like James Laurinitas who can replace Ellison at WLB and use our own R2 selection on a LT of the future like Jamon Meredith or Gerald Cadogan. Walker has shown he can be a decent enough LT whilst the draft pick develops and Chambers/Butler can cover the RT position. It will also allow the team to develop Bell as a true LG.
The R2 in 2010 will provide the team with flexibility to move up and down in R1 maybe if Edwards doesn't work out at QB or we need to replace Lynch but even if we stand still it still allows us a chance to get 3 starters on Day1 in 2010.
I'm not ready to give up on Hardy yet as I think he will learn a lot from Owens.
I think we will be fine with Owens, Evans, Reed and Johnson at WR and if we are going to go with 3-WR sets would favour more of a blocker at TE in the draft.
In 2010, we can look to replace Owens with a receiving TE like Jermaine Gresham, Rob Gronkowski or Dennis Pitta.
