2010 My Guys

[Roy P]

Yeah, while I'm at it I thought I'd put together my list of Free Agents by priority. Guys at the top of the list would make more money or at least I would offer them more money. I get DeMeco locked up first before going out on the market. When it comes to O.D. I compare him to Ben Watson and Tony Scheffler and try to find the best bargain.

1 DeMeco Ryans, Houston Texans (26)
2 Richard Seymour, Oakland Raiders (30)
3 Derrick Johnson, Kansas City Chiefs (27)
4 Nick Collins, Green Bay Packers (27)
5 Antoine Bethea, Indianapolis Colts (26)
6 Logan Mankins, New England Patriots (28)
7 Barry Cofield, New York Giants (26)
8 Cadillac Williams, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (28)
9 Ben Watson, New England Patriots (29)
10 Daryn Colledge, Green Bay Packers (28)
11 Mark Clayton, Baltimore Ravens (28)
12 Owen Daniels, Houston Texans (27)
13 Tony Scheffler, Denver Broncos (27)
14 David Baas, San Francisco 49ers (28)
15 Mark Anderson, Chicago Bears (27)
16 Richard Marshall, Carolina Panthers (25)
17 Carlos Rogers, Washington Redskins (29)
18 Chester Pitts, Houston Texans (31)
19 Darryl Tapp, Seattle Seahawks (25)
20 Jerious Norwood, Atlanta Falcons (27)
21 Jerome Harrison, Cleveland Browns (27)
22 Jason Avant, Philadelphia Eagles (27)
23 Chris Kuper, Denver Broncos (27)
24 Marshal Yanda, Baltimore Ravens (25)
25 Alex Smith, New England Patriots (28)
26 Danieal Manning, Chicago Bears (28)
27 Chris Spencer, Seattle Seahawks (28)
28 Adam Terry, Baltimore Ravens (28)
29 David Clowney, New York Jets (25)
30 Josh Bullocks, Chicago Bears (27)

With no agreement you can take off all the players with less than 7 years experience like Tony Scheffler. Our very own OD and Rynas will be RFA's as well.

O.D., Ryans, & Pitts aren't going anywhere. dRob now..........?

[nero THE zero]

I'm seeing lots of love for Seymour as a FA. He's a good player, I guess I'm just not understanding where he'd play. He's essentially a better Antonio Smith. So, we could bump one of those guys down to 3-tech, but then what do we do with Okoye? I'd have no problem cutting him, myself. But, we know that's not a realistic possibility.

I just don't see a fit there.

I'm going over a couple of scenarios very EARLY. It's always fun to see who I mock select in the 6th round getting picked on draft day in the 2nd. Here's two such mocks...

1. WLB Sean Weatherspoon, Missouri
2. RB Ryan Mathews, Fresno State
3. FS Myron Lewis, Vanderbilt
4. CB Syd'Quan Thompson, California
5a. OG Thomas Austin, Clemson
5b. CB Alterraun Verner, UCLA
6. DT Nate Collins, Virginia
7. DT Kade Weston, Georgia

1. FS Earl Thomas**, Texas
2. RB Ryan Mathews, Fresno State
3. CB Syd'Quan Thompson, California
4. CB Alterraun Verner, UCLA
5a. OG Thomas Austin, Clemson
5b. OG Jon Asamoah, Illinois
6. DT Nate Collins, Virginia
7. DT Torrell Troup, Central Florida

Has Earl Thomas declared?

[barrett]

With LBs that can tackle and a SS like Pollard, Earl Thomas would be a good fit here since there would be plenty of back 7 help covering up his slight deficiencies in the run game. And I'd love to have a FS with ball skills (note this is assuming we bring back Pollard).

[texan]

If Thomas declares, and he's there at our pick, that's the guy I want.

Roy, I can't see us taking a LB in the first, we've got much bigger needs that need to be filled.
