Basically it says they gave him a normal 3rd round tender and that both sides are trying to workout a long term deal. That sucks because I was really hoping we would have a good chance of getting him. Hopefully we try and bring in Cofield

I would love Mebane but it wouldn't make sense why Seattle would let him go.

Coefield would be a nice addition. The Free agent DT class so far has Tommie Harris, Kris Jenkins and possibly Kemo. If we can add Coefield and Harris our D would be nasty with Landri being used as a situational player our D line would have depth that it has lacked in the past few years.

I didn't think any teams could negotiate contracts with a player until a CBA is in place?

unless of course they finalize this before Friday...... I'm going to assume for now that won't be the case.

Until March 4, teams can negotiate with 1) their players or players that were 2) released from other teams. Just within the last week there was the Routt extension (1) and NE signing Stroud (2). They just can't negotiate with players that are set to be FA on the 4th, which is the beginning of the new league year.

These tenders don't really mean jack. And once upon a time the Panthers and Peppers were both working hard to ink out a long term deal. Just sayin, take these type of reports with a grain of salt until a deal is official.

Peppers was drafted though. I don't think we'll ever sign anybody more than an above average FA because if the Richardson/Hurney plan is working then all the superstrars will be draftees of the team.

If you watch Harris he runs with a slight limp. His leg is still bothering and has slowed him down. I doubt he would pass a physical. We already let Kemo go once, I doubt we would pick him up. As for Cofield lets see if he is completely over his injury, he might be another Chuck Smith. And finally Jenkins has spent the last 2 years on IR, he is definitely over the hill at this point. He has played 7 games in the last 2 years.

These guys might be okay to take at cheap prices to see if they have anything left but honestly none of these guys come without serious questions.

yeah, the only one I would want that you mentioned is Cofield...

      Legette. Wrist surgery?

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
