He's gonna cost an arm and a leg. I'd rather they sign Nate

Re: Corey Simon now a free agent

Id like to see Clements signed first over anyone. If some how we have the money to get Simon, then why not, but I doubt we will make a move for him though.

I'd love to see him come to this defense.

so would I if they can afford him. I'd just rather have Clements if they can only afford 1

New England showed last year that you don't need a pro-bowl CB to have a good secondary.

I'd take Simon over Nate any day. Don't get me wrong, I think Nate is one hell of a CB but is he worth breaking the bank over? Simon would be more of an instant impact player IMO.

I'd rather keep nate around but not at the cost of something that may put us over the top...besides, we have T-Mac at the opposite corner and if Jabari Greer keeps improving, Nate could be more expendable

Corey Simon unrestricted FA

Eagles removed franchise tag per ESPN News

Re: Corey Simon now a free agent

What we really need is an DE. I don't see how tieing up that much money in a DT is going to help us.

Re: Corey Simon now a free agent

This is ridiculous. Have Edwards and Anderson performed so badly that we need to pursue this money hungry clown from Philly? Sure, he'll land somewhere with a fat contract but the Bills DO NOT need this guy. Remember how excited everyone was about Reshard Lee? Well, now he's gone. Simply because there was solid depth at the position. Just like there's depth at DT AND CB. As much as it kills me to say this, if I were TD, I would say goodbye to Nate Clements. No player is worth the kind of money that Nate will command. Nate will probably have a great pro-bowl season this year, but his eye is on the $$$, not the playoffs. He'll play for whoever offers the most dough. New Orleans, Miami, San Fran. Doesn't matter how bad the team is because he'll be able to say that he's the highest paid CB in the league. And in the end, being the top money dog is all matters to most of the players in the NFL. Of course, we can go ahead and franchise him but look what that did for Corey Simon and the Eagles. McGee goes to #1. Greer, Thomas, King, and a day one pick vie for the #2 spot. Nothing but a vicious cycle.
