    Realistic free agents

    Who's a few guys who are realistic FA's for you?

    Heres a few that I thought of:

    NT-Tank Johnson
    DE- Adewale Ogunleye
    OLB- Keith Bulluck
    DE-Dwan Edwards
    OT- Cornell Green
    WR- Nate Burleson
    RB- Larry Johnson
    OLB- Joey Porter
    OT- Levi Jones
    S- Will Allen
    S- Sean Jones
    LB- Antonio Pierce
    LB- Larry Foote
    LB- Jeremiah Trotter
    C- Kevin Mawae
    C- Casey Rabach
    OT- Tra Thomas
    TE- Alge Crumpler
    WR- David Tyree

    I'd target the following:

    QB Chad Pennington
    WR Kevin Walter
    WR Bobby Wade
    TE Brandon Manumaleuna
    TE Ben Hartsock
    RB Willie Parker
    T Artis Hicks
    T Tony Pashos
    T Barry Sims
    NT Bryan Robinson
    NT/DE Jimmy Kennedy
    DE Dwan Edwards
    DE Nick Eason
    DE Travis Kirschke
    DE Jarvis Green
    ILB Larry Foote
    ILB Matt Wilhelm
    ILB Ryan Fowler
    OLB Chike Okeafor
    OLB Tully Banta-Cain


    I'd try to sign 6-10 free agents relatively cheaply with promises of increased playing time, like the Patriots did in 2001. We need a LOT of depth and this could be the place to do it. Walter may get a much bigger contract than anticipated because of how thin the WR class is.

      Out of all those guys, I get these. Then go into draft grabbing BPA!

      NT-Tank Johnson
      DE- Adewale Ogunleye
      OLB- Joey Porter
      OT- Levi Jones
      OT- Tra Thomas
      OLB Tully Banta-Cain

        Anyone could disagree with a few of those but I like your line of thinking. It's realistic.

        Good post.

          too, but not sure if he's a good fit for a 3-4

            the majority of the names mentioned could come in and start immediately. that's how bad this team is talent-wise.

              Am I the only one who will be shocked if we sign any? I think we'll find out how much sway the good ol boys have with ralphie during the free agency period.

                We gave Dockery 49 Mil. It's about spending on the right players.

                These guys are all mercenaries and will chase the almighty Make the good ones a decent offer and they will come.

                    Will we be able to compete though? It could be the wild west this season.
