Brandon Merriweather and he has 4 years counting 2011 correct? so we could get him off the waiver

No they have to have under 4 years

Judging by how underwhelming Lafell,nanae and armanti have played I can't believe more people aren't screaming for Wrs like Tate and Avery. We have already a experienced a season with only 1 legitamate NFL receiver and that ended with us having the 1st overall pick......

We've only had 1 legitimate receiver since the '05 loss to Seattle.

Very true, but now that fox is gone hopefully will try something different.

So what do you guys think about going after DT Igor Olshansky(Cowboys) and CB Will Allen(Dolphins)??

Igor would be awesome. If I'm not mistaken, he played under Rivera while they were both in San Diego. He'll probably goto Houston. But, he's very much a 3-4 defensive linemen, even if we do get him. So, there'll be a lot of work/transitioning there.

Will Allen would be the shiz. Enough said.

I don't think igor would fit in well with us because he's been a 3-4 dlinemen his whole career. I believe Tommy harris is a more viable short term option, but the truth is I don't think there is much out there to choose from. I guess that's the price you pay for drafting as foolishly as we have the past few years.

wow didn't know Will Allen was available

[Reapuh]

I'll admit I haven't seen Will Allen play a whole lot, but...it doesn't look like he's done much since 2006.

EDIT...I got the wrong Will Allen lol

[KillerKat]

The CB we sign will be a stop gap anyway until we draft one with our first pick next year.

[Reapuh]

I was looking at the Will Allen from the Steelers lol..

But, yeah he might be a good stop gap..even though he is 33. Good enough for me.

Will allen is a solid veteran corner that got stuck behind those two young studs that Miami has and we could really use him, but I don't see anyway we don't go with that guy philly cut cause McDermott connection. I remember hearing rumors that we were in tradectalks with them for him so I'll be absolutely shocked if he's not a panther in a few days.

If we sign Hanson, he won't be the starter. He would be for depth.

[RIP_Fred_Lane]

If we go into week 1 with captain as the 2nd corner he will be the worst starting corner in the NFL. I like the guy but athletically he doesn't have the tools to play on the outside. Add on the fact that we get zero pass rush and captain well only got exposed more. We need to sign a vet to hold down that spot until we can find a more viable long term option in the draft next year, I wonder what Ken Lucas is doing.......
