Would New England have an interest in signing him? You could pair him with Chung as the new starters at safety.

They already have the other starting safety in Meriweather. If Atogwe were signed, which I doubt, he would start over Chung, not Meriweather.

He is coming from major surgery

so you want to offer a pick, a big contract and cut say mcgown and sanders in the 2nd cut date so you can keep him ?
sounds like a plan must be the rodney harrison 2.

We don't need him. Safety is already deep with us and I'm looking forward to see what Chung can do this year.

That's not right. The only way he can become unrestricted is if the Rams rescind the tender offer.

That's not true, because that would Mean mankind would be a ufa too if he didn't sign the tender. And no one would sign their tender before June 1 and it would become a 2nd deeper FA period. He's only free if the rams say he's free. Plus saftey is not something I'm worried about.

Not true. The Rams used the low tender on Atogwe. He will be unrestricted on 6/1/2010. Also, just read a nice Chicago Trib article claiming that since he has come into the league, Atogwe has had a hand in 41 turnovers ( FF, INT ), first in the NFL. Reed of Baltimore is second over that time frame with 39.

I could be wrong, but I think Atogwe only becomes an unrestricted free agent if the Rams opt not to give him a second tender offer that will equal 110% of his 2009 base salary, which was the franchise tag.

And no need for Atogwe here, safety is our deepest position. And there would be zero chance Meriweather moved back to the bench. If the Pats signed Atogwe, he would start over Chung/Sanders.

Well, I would've Chung at strong safety and Atogwe at free safety. But if Atogwe is damaged goods. Then I can see the little interest in him by some of you. And he'll turn twenty-nine next month.

If we needed a safety I think BB would have signed Darren Sharper months ago
