Osi Umenyiora wants out of New York... Filing affidavit to leave Giants within month.

[TruCatzFan]

With that said, the dude is a BEAST and still young enough to have longevity if we pick him up... I think it'd be sweet to have him... I know our needs are DT and CB but he is a bonafide starter... Thoughts and comments... I figure this would generate enough of a response to get us through the next several days...

Edit: from what I gathered from the report on SC he wants a long term deal and New York only gave him two years. I think he'd look great in Carolina Blue!

[TheRealDeal]

I guess it's that time of year when every NFL Players name gets brought up and how they look in "Carolina Blue"

:(

You think he'll be a Tarheel?

[Urrymonster]

Not interested. He is kicking up a fuss about the GM promising him that he would renegotiate his contract two years ago if he was playing to a high standard.

If Osi think is he is still playing at a high standard then he is a little short upstairs.

Yeah let's throw tons of money at a 29 year old DE with knee problems.

Chuck Smith and Eric Swann are available.

Although he is talented, he isn't coming off of the greatest season and with his injury history, i think longevity is the last thing teams expect to get out of him.

Considering we're about to lose Charles Johnson, I'd be willing to give Osi a chance.

:iagree: Maybe Osi needs a change of scenery, but with his injury history and attitude, I'd pass.

I don't see us losing CJ unless he commands a ridiculous contract. The Panthers have said they're committed to resigning their core players i.e. Johnson, Kalil, and Williams.

[YoungPanthers89]

if we lose cj then yes

[bleys]

Over spend for Charles Johnson or Osi? hmmm..........

[Devoid]

On December 23, 2005, the Giants signed Umenyiora to a six-year contract extension for $41 million with $15 million guaranteed. He wants top 5 money so pass. He is good though Osi, CJ, Hardy, and Brown would be a mean set of DE's.

I took the time to fix the spacing in the graph and it shifted to the left anyways.

[Brokenbad]

He will probably go to the Jets...they seem to have enough money to buy anyone that is any good on defense.

[CatMan72]

I would take Osi in a hearbeat, besides CJ we don't have a proven commodity at DE and we may lose him.
