Potential Reclamation Projects

I think we could get wiesnewski or boling on the cheap and they might be able to contribute.
 
Clint Boling would indeed contribute, but he will not come cheaply, Wisniewski even less so.
 
How about Darren McFadden, good all around back, can catch out of the backfield. Pretty sure he is fed up with the Raiders.
 
The options for 2012 picks have not been picked up yet. Jones implies they will pick it up but who knows with Jerry Jones.

He is currently on a 4 yr pact, so he's certainly not going to be a free agent this spring. He MAY be a free agent in Mar. 2016, which is where the talk of his 5th yr option (for the 2016 season) comes into play.

He's only played 2012, 2013, and 2014--so he still has the upcoming 2015 season even if they don't pick up his option for 2016.

According to Jerry Jones, he won't be a FA until 2017, but as you said who knows if he's telling the truth. Either way, Morris Claiborne isn't going to be a FA this spring. He's only been in the league 3 yrs.
 
Why didn't Carimi work out ? I remember him being highly touted.

If I remember correctly, his knee got shredded very early on in his rookie year and he hasn't been right since.

I actually liked Carimi over Solder in that draft. At the time I wanted Vollmer to switch to the left side and Carimi to take his spot at RT. He looked very meh his last year in Chicago and with the Bucs.
 
Blaine Gabbert, QB-- no ****ing way
Christian Ponder, QB-- would love this, as I've said before
Trent Richardson, RB-- no ****ing way
Hakeem Nicks, WR-- LOL. dude will be lucky to be on a roster week 1.
Rob Housler, TE-- nah
Gabe Carimi, OL-- I guess if he'll sign for the vet minimum
Michael Oher, OL-- he's terrible.
Ben Ijalana, OL-- no idea who this is
Da'Quan Bowers, DL-- nah
Adrian Clayborn, DL-- interesting.
Colin McCarthy, LB-- interesting.
Morris Claiborne, DB-- nah
Kenny Vaccaro, DB-- would like this one
 
Colts are targeting Mccourty he owned Luck.
I'd be sick if any current Patriot would sign with that franchise based off deflate gate.
Personally, I think Vereen and the Colts is a perfect fit. Praying it doesn't happen.

I know he isn't but I read reports that he (like Richardson) could be released for lack of performance and salary cap reasons.

You are correct.

8. Rob Sims
9. Will Montgomery
10. Dominic Raiola

 
A settlement is nothing more than an agreement, which in the minds of the parties, is less onerous, risky, costly, etc. than leaving it up to the courts.

She very well may have settled because her claim was baseless and wanted guaranteed money. Or he may have settled because he didn't want his name drug through the mud publicly and he did it. Or they settled for another of any number of reasons.


He paid her,to,disappear.
 
Personally, I think Vereen and the Colts is a perfect fit. Praying it doesn't happen.
I thought the Colts were looking to establish a power running game. That's what was said when they acquired T-Rich. How about Mark Ingram for them? He's a former 1st round pick from Alabama. What could go wrong?
 
Trent Richardson doesn't even have that most basic first attribute that would make us want to even talk to him.

Football is not important to Trent Richardson. How else can you explain getting out of shape in the middle of a season, missing meetings, and looking like he doesn't even know the play book?
 
Having nicks and Jojo on the same team would be like having Danny Amendola and Julian Edelman on the same team...... Oh.
 
Some of Bills more exciting projects in the past have involved slightly long-in-the-tooth potential hall of famers like John lynch, Junior Seao, Rodney, Moss, Torry Holt, haynesworth etc. Not too many guys like that around right now but I'm sure that will change.
 
Is Adrian Clayborn a free agent? he was my draft binkie back in 2011
 
White and Gaffney have shown, to this point, absolutely nothing. Say what you will about Vereen but he's shown a hell of a lot more than that.
Vereen didnt show much his first year, 57 total yards and only five games played. Lets give White a chance before writing them off
 
Terrance Knighton would be a huge move - not really a reclamation project but the guy has had some great games against the pats.
 
Knoshown Moreno? Coming off an ACL tear in October. He had signed a one year prove it deal with Miami and didn't prove it. He was very good with the Broncos as the Pats know first hand.
He was pretty damn good against us in the first meeting. I'd pick him up in a heartbeat.
