Edelman visiting the Giants

Off topic, but I didn't feel it deserved its own thread.

Obviously it is a comment made in jest, but I'm guessing there may be a bit of backlash.

I hope he gets 20...

 

[Jimke]

Edelman interview with Giants went well. Pondering his options.
Per NY Daily News.

 

[captain stone]

The cut Mosley lose today in Jacksonville wouldn't mind kicking his tires.

Unfortunately, he's already signed with Detroit.

Unfortunately, he's already signed with Detroit.

Cross another name off the list of free agent wide receivers:

“@AdamSchefter:

Jaguars reached agreement on a two-year deal with former Browns WR Mohamed Massaquoi.”​

Now I remember why I find the offseason so boring.

Source: Rolando McClain has been informed he'll be released today by the #Raiders.​

 

[VrabelJr]

Rolando McClain is a talented player but a complete idiot. I don't know how anyone ever thought of him as a potential leader. He'd be great on a team where leadership is already in place. Unfortunately there is no room for him here. I could see the Chiefs or Broncos as possible fits.

 

[Rob0729]

McClain is a two down ILB. Unfortunately, the Pats are stacked with run stuffing LBs. They need a LB who can cover and that ain't McClain.

 

[Deus Irae]

A McClain signing would probably tell us all we need to know about whether or not Spikes will be returning next season.

 

[Snake Eyes]

McClain is a two down ILB. Unfortunately, the Pats are stacked with run stuffing LBs. They need a LB who can cover and that ain't McClain.

Is he worse than Spikes in coverage?

 

[captain stone]

Bears sign ex-Jet OG Matt Slausen to a 1-year $815K deal.

WalterFootball.com: 2013 NFL Free Agent Grades

I would sleep better if Bill would sign a vet C/G not too old with starting experience.
Kevin Boothe would've been perfect, and he re-signed with the Jints for 1 year and only < $1M.
Brandon Moore's still available. Others who fit the criteria include:
Jake Scott
Tyrone Green
Doug Legursky
Antoine Caldwell
Mike Pollack
Eben Britten (T/G)

Cross another potential free agent WR off the list, if this is true:

Source says Browns are close to signing former Bills WR David Nelson. Should be official soon.​

 

[DocHoliday]

49ers are working on an offer for restricted free-agent Victor Cruz - New Jersey Post

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

wow...49ers get him...wow. I would HATE to be in the NFC...Glad we don't play them

 

[Froob]

wow...49ers get him...wow. I would HATE to be in the NFC...Glad we don't play them

Still would probably have to play them in the super bowl if pats make it there. Not good news for anybody.
