Julian Peterson to be released

[X-Era]

He's 32, but at the right money, I'd like that move.

Does Merriman and an emerging Moats make us have no interest?

He might be gettable at 4-6 mill per and is an upgrade to Ellison and Torbor for sure.

He's a better 4-3 LB than a 3-4 guy, imo.

He's a better 4-3 LB than a 3-4 guy, imo.I'm reading that too. Though this seems to say he's got some experience in both.

If the price is just as a long in the tooth backup, why not? Maybe the versatility helps us in our multiple set approach.

Yea I could see it, just saying if our base approach is still 3-4 (and I think it will be) the price will have to be very low for him to sign here as a situational backup.

He's a lot slower than he used to be. I believe he's had an achilles injury, and at least one serious knee injury.

[NOT THE DUDE...]

i live in mi and see him play a lot, hes washed up, no way would i take him

[Mr. Miyagi]

I agree with John, this guy is nothing but a name recognition now. Pass.

This guy will replace Jason Taylor in New York next year.
