Good. Maybe this year I won't have to apologize to Roby.

Jason La Canfora is saying Victor Butler will visit the Steelers tomorrow. I know he had been a name that has been kicked around as a potential target.

he says several teams are interested in Butler.

I'm not panicking. I just wish they could have signed 1 impact player on D.

When your teams D is the worst in league history, not much can send you into a panic

how much worse could it get

LaRon Landry signed with the Colts 4 year deal.

Ricky Jean Francois is either visiting with the Colts or has already visited with them... not sure.

quote:
Sounds like Landry's deal is in line with what William Moore got with Atlanta. Nice haul after playing on a 1yr deal with Jets in 2012

don't know how much Moore got though

this is also from La Canfora.

Hopefully the Saints can close on Keenan Lewis or Nnamdi, Francois would be a nice addition if he makes it out of Indy

yeah, they've been doing work. They got Landry and they had snagged Greg Toler before that. Toler may even be a starter for them.. who knows.

If the Bucs land Revis and we miss out on Nnamdi, I am just going to snap.

No longer mad, don't want to waste the $$ on a guy with injury problems. Rather use it on Nnamdi or Keenan

Good recap.

Not really sure I'm that interested in anyone left out there. Maybe RJF. I'd like us to get an OT or S so we don't have to draft one. Maybe we can get one with an Ivory trade.

Just read Chase Daniel's deal becomes void if he throws for 2000+yds AND at least 12 TD's in any given season.
