There was a report today that Harbaugh asked him to come back on the ride back to the team hotel last night. I doubt he leaves. With Ray Lewis gone, they need his leadership and someone to help get em lined up right. Way too valuable to let go. He's not the cherry on a sundae for us. We have a few other holes to fix before we can consider throwing a lot of money his way.
I'm not seeing it. His strengths are too much like McCourty's and his weaknesses are too much like Gregory's. You don't gain anything other than flexibility by having two safeties that can play single-high, and you don't solve the tackling issues at safety by adding Reed either. I'd rather get a guy who isn't as good in deep coverage but can still hold his own in underneath zone or man against TEs, and who can actually tackle.
While he's still under contract right now, Charles Woodson is the guy I want, assuming he'll be released rather than taking a pay cut to stay with the Packers.
I definitely wouldn't. I think he's pretty average, and the Giants backups made him forgettable this year.I'd much prefer Kenny Phillips.
Apparently none of you read reed's comments a week ago when he said it was unlikely he'll play for NE.
When did he say that? I haven't read that article, did he specify a reason?
