Stated last night they could see steelers LB Haggan heading to us for reasonable $$$$.

I think it would be a good fit and could explain Rosie cut. Thoughts?

Something tells me that we are going to sign (Haggans, Pace or even Briggs), yes Briggs, I think the Pats are going to make a play for him.

That means we have no Samual, Moss, Stallworth,Gay or Wilson.. if we sign Briggs ,which I would like but doubt..

I think Haggan would be a nice little pickup. We'd have to do more than that, but I think he would be a good fit. He has expereince in a solid 3-4 and wouldn't be another conversion project.

As much as it pains me to say it, me thinks that Parcells will turn the Fish into a much improved team this year and the Jets will now take up residence in the AFC East basement. He'll sign some decent FA's and most likely turn the #1 pick into a bankroll of future picks.

Sean, 3 of those 4 guys aren't coming back anyway, why would you even mention them. I could see the Pats with their available cap space working in a long term deal for Briggs (6-7 years) and a 3 year deal for Randy very easily.

Free agent LB Clark Haggans is considered a possibility for the Giants at weak-side linebacker, according to the Newark Star-Ledger.

Haggans has been a right outside linebacker in Pittsburgh's 3-4 since 2000. He's a pressure player, so DC Steve Spagnuolo could probably make him work. The Patriots and Browns are also believed to be pursuing Haggans.
