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!
What kind of compensation could they want for him?
Sure, he's a star, but he'll be 31 this season & has suffered some injuries. So...
What do you think, a third?
He hasn't signed the extension they offered him for the last 2 years because it's less money than what the top defensive linemen already get on the Giants. He wants to match the top paid players on the line like Kiwanuka. Unless they offer him bigger money he'll probably play out this last year and then hit the free agent market unless the Giants say screw it and trade him before he leaves town with no compensation.

Can we afford ~$10 Million a year for him right now ??
If everyone stays healthy, DL would be the strength of this team.
Why should we eat the cap hit and give up compensation? If he were a WR, OT or LB, I'd at least be considering it, but we can't afford to pour all our resources into the DL when we have so many other holes.
And if we did bring him here, how long before he starts *****ing that he should have a $90 million contract like Williams?
He'll stay with the Giants, and win another Superbowl in 4 years.
