(Posted on 1/31/13 at 1:15 pm) Friend texted me and said they just asked him on First Take something like "if you don't end up staying with the Giants, name some teams you would like to play for". His very first answer, without any hesitation, was the New Orleans Saints.

I think his price tag will be too crazy.

He's Old His production does not match what he will want in salary He's never played a 3-4 Not a needed position since we already have Hicks and Jordan to play a 3-4 DE

(Posted on 1/31/13 at 2:10 pm to TigerBait2008) 2009 7.5 sacks 2010 11.5 sacks 2011 9 sacks 2012 sacks He is 31, doesn't fit our scheme and has a history of being a distraction, and won't be giving any team a "deal". So how exactly am I dumb? Please, tell me. Why do you think I'm wrong.
