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!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

I have been thinking about something as I watch team after team put the franchise tag on their top free agent. I was wondering how come we aren't going to slap the tag on Antoine Winfield? I keep reading a bunch of articles about how Winfield will be one of the most popular free agents around and it makes me wonder why we don't try to get something for him? Last year we managed to slap the tag on Peerless Price to give us more time to come up with a contract or to trade him...why don't we do this with Winfield? We have the money. Even if we only get a 2nd rounder for Winfield...it's better than nothing!
basically it comes down to us not having a franchise tag to put on him and a team is giong to over pay him like the lions did with bly last season and TD isnt giong to want to negotiate with winfields agent who wants a whole lot more than donahoe wants to give him

We have a tag and if say someone like Houston or Atlanta want him...we can tag him and then do a sign and trade like we did with Peerless. Can't we?
It would cost $6,801,000 against the cap in 2004 and there's no guarantee anyone would take him off our hands in a trade. With the plethora of CBs on the market this year, a team would have to be stupid to trade for a CB for a higher round draft pick. Last year was different. The WR free agent crop was thin and Peerless was one of the top 3 on the market. I'd place Antoine in the top 7-8.

It ain't gonna happen so quit bringing it up. Is'nt that what you say to the Bledsoe bashers.
Originally posted by Mikey82 Why ain't it going to happen? We did the same thing to Peerless Price and he wasn't so great.

Why not tag Winfield?
