2GOLD 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2005 So who else thinks the Colts should trade Edge to Miami? They can get a Patrick Surtain type of player back from the Dolphins, plus a pick; maybe a third round pick? The Colts can grab another RB in the 1st or 2nd round, can fix up their defense a little, and they can ditch Edge's contract. Right now, the Colts are saying they will not move James without two first round draft picks for him. There just aren't that many teams, if any, that are going to sell out their draft for one player. Most of them learned from the mistake made by Mike Ditka. With a first round pick or hell, early second round you can grab a quality running back that may end up being just as good as Edge. Unless his trade price goes down, I don't see anyone being dumb enough to sell out two first rounders for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sass 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2005 Isn't Edge's back-up just as efficient as he is? That's the word out of Indy I was hearing when the "EDGE TO MIAMI~!!!!!" rumors started to pop-up. Indy signed up all of their WR's first...Edge can get sloppy thirds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Failed Mascot Report post Posted March 3, 2005 I'm hearing the Duane Starks move is complete Patriots get - Duane Starks Arizona's 5th round pick Cards get - New England's 3rd and 5th round picks This helps shore up the secondary. If the Pats aren't cutting Tyrone Poole then their CB situation should be Starks, Asante Samuel, Tyrone Poole, and Randall Gay. I wouldn't be surpised to see them trade their first rounder for a pick in next year's draft and a second rounder in this year's. That way they can move down and grab ILB Odell Thurman, OG Elton Brown, or ILB Barrett Ruud without reaching and add a pick for next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brett Favre 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2005 Don't know if this rumor is true, but someone on the CBSSportsline message boards said they saw on a local news channel in Long Island (Ch. 12) that Plaxico Burress will sign with the Jets by tomorrow. Someone else on the ESPN Boards posted something like this as well. Anyone here live in Long Island, and can confirm this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2005 Well, the Texan's FA shopping is probably over apart from resigning their own. They (IMO) over paid for Seth Payne at 4 years, $16 mill and a $4.5 million bonus. Then today they spent the rest of their open cap space on Morlon Greenwood from the Dolphins at 5 years, $22.5 million with a $7 million bonus. I don't know much about Morlon (I don't watch the Dolphins) but he seems to fit the mold of a 3-4 ILB. This signing, combined with Kailee Wong moving to the inside, seems to eliminate the possiblity of trying to trade up to get Derrick Johnson. I still have no idea where the Texans are going with their first pick though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Failed Mascot Report post Posted March 4, 2005 I think that's because there were some concerns about Trotter's knees and he didn't want to leave Philli. Good deal for both sides. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
therealworldschampion 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2005 I still expected KC or Seattle to try and give him a bloated offer despite what happened in Washington. Was a very good deal still... Oh and here's Antonio Pierce trying to talk shit.... Pierce, 26, a former Redskins linebacker with one year of starting experience, signed a contract believed to be worth $26 million over six seasons, including a $6.5-million bonus, the highest the Giants ever have given a free agent from another team. "It's time to win the East and knock Philly off," Pierce said last night. BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Yeah and you picked the perfect team for that dumbass.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted March 4, 2005 Browns signed guard Joe Andruzzi to a four-year, $9 million contract. That's great to hear. He's alittle older than I would've liked, but a solid veteren is fine by me. I am too. That should help the offensive line quite a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
