get fitzgerald..........

 

[primetime]

Enjoying the cyclical nature of the Marcus Stroud/Marcell Dareus career. Basically the same guy in reverse.

 

[RobertWeathers]

get fitzgerald..........

I think the team is in a state in which acquiring Fitz makes way too much sense.

get fitzgerald..........

The cardinals season's over. Fitz's 34. Last chance likely to play for a contender.

Just tuned into Zolak and Bertrand...they were having "trade for Vinatieri" talk...CLICK

 

[FortressX]

Staley got hurt yesterday.
Not season ending, but maybe a month or so down time.

Lol even if Gost was done, as much as I think we’d all love to see Goatatieri back, I don’t think Bill brings in a kicker who can’t do kickoffs unless Allen can do em and I don’t think I’ve heard of him kicking off.

 

[chasa]

Stupid dream, but if it were possible, trade Gilmore, + Mitchel + 1st and maybe 4th for Peterson and Fitzgerald.

The Cardinals are done. Peterson wants out, Fitzgeald will never say it, but he is frustrated. They need to rebuild. Would help us in the immediate and help the Cardinals long term.

Biggest fear is the Cardinals trading Fitz to the Stealers because of Ariens connection.

I am drunk, friends took me out for my 50th Bday, so forgive me if I am irrational.

are we talking adrian peterson? the running back that sucks?

you want to give up a first, a 4th girlmore, and malcom mitchel, for two pieces of literal garbage?

Fitzgerald is two years past being worth a first rounder, Adrian peterson has played more games in london this year then in EITHER of the home stadiums of the teams he's played for. I wouldn't give up a 5+6th for them combined.

Yeah, that ain't happening.

Gost is a concern though, he's been inconsistent since Mile High. Don't think there are any good kickers in the draft though, so we'll see...

TE2 or front seven is what we need to target depending on Hogan's status and the Mitchell situation.

Bedard is right, Jimmy Graham is exactly what we need offensively if Seattle is willing to deal at a reasonable price.

 

[DaBruinz]

A 4th + Allen to Seattle for Graham might be better. The Pats couldn't afford Graham's remaining salary without getting rid of Allen. I genuinely think Allen can produce for another team. Just not a fit on the Pats.

You do realize that Allen is being asked to block more than Gronk is in the running game, yes? That is freeing up Gronk some, particularly in Play-action passing situations. Furthermore, Allen is likely the last option on most plays because you have Gronk, Amendola, Hogan, Cooks, and White who are ahead of him..

 

[DaBruinz]

Would love to add a player on the DL. Our pass rush was non existent today. Not much from cooks either. 26 yards?

There was plenty of pass rush. Cooks was double covered most of the day.. The one play he was uncovered, Brady screwed the pooch throwing the ball into the ground..

Do the Seahags want to move Jimmy?

I think Marty would do better here as his blocking is superior but Graham would be a better offensive threat in the red zone

 

[mgteich]

There are LBs available on the street right now who are better than Roberts.

So you think.

Belichick is fine with Roberts, Harris and probably Mcclellan backing up Van Noy. I'm not saying that Belichick won't add anyone (in addition to McClellan), but it does seem unlikely.

Graham is an important part of the Seattle offense. I can't see him being moved.

 

[Marqui]

There was plenty of pass rush.

 

[DaBruinz]

The cardinals season's over. Fitz's 34. Last chance likely to play for a contender.

Fitzgerald's availability depends on who has to eat the guaranteed money in his contract. His entire salary is guaranteed. That means he counts $647059 per week. 9 weeks would make it $5,823,529 for his cap hit.. The Pats only have 4.9M. That means they'd need to free up nearly $2M to ensure they have money for future injuries..

@Miguel can confirm one way or the other on this..

He's talking about Patrick Peterson, the Cornerback.

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

Haven't heard his name but would the skins move a guy like Jamison Crowder.

 

[Froob]

Cavs would be open to dealing Kevin Love.
