Could somebody talk to me about Arron Sears and Tampa Bay. I thought he was pretty good there, and they just cut him. Is he injured? Any thoughts on bringing him in?

As for bringing in Veteran savvy and leadership. Keith Bulluck should be able to take the job from Zach Diles. Perhaps his agent is asking for $4Mil per year or something, but I'd be ok for 2 years at that price.

I wanted to draft Jeremy Thompson to play DE opposite of Mario. The Packers drafted him and now he is mis-cast as a 3/4 OLB. He is an Unrestricted FA and should be cheap. I understand that we have Barwin and Smith already, but is having 4 pass-rushing DE's on the roster a bad thing? Isn't that how the Giants won the SuperBowl a couple of years ago?

That's all I got.

It looks like he is going through 'personal problems' off the field. So, that is probably with the Bucs cut him and why we won't sign him.

Darren Sharper is who I would go get. He would be the best Safety we have had, and IMO he would help us storm into the playoffs.

Wow! That really sucks. He was like the definition of what I wanted from a LDE in terms of measureables. Guess he just never had a chance to develop and now an injury. Very young to have to retire due to injury.
