Sam Shields, William Moore and Andre Smith for me. I'm hoping the Packers let Shields walk without placing a tender on him...

Greg Jennings should be in the running for our #2 WR spot... I'd take him over Bowe/Wallace any day of the week.

Miami is going to throw the wallet at him.

[rumplestilskin]

If Fred Davis is not brought back I want Jared Cook.

[bradboyd80]

Count me in on the Andre Smith wagon. He would likely come at a much lower price than Clady as well. Bowe has said he wants to remain with the Chiefs, but I think we should at least try. With him, Garcon, and Moss, we could be very dangerous. Also would like to see what Davis can do when he comes back. Achilles is a tough injury to come back from. If he looks like the Davis of old, keep him; otherwise, let him go.

I'm looking at that list too. Link is http://www.rotoworld.com/articles/nf...r-list-13?pg=1

We might also want to keep an eye on DTs, specifically guys in the NT build. I really don't think a solution will present itself there, but worth keeping an eye on.

They can try... I bet they end up with Mike Wallace. Jennings gets to play with the speedy team and hopefully RG3

Would love me some Sam Shields... Doubt they let him walk though.

[DogofWar1]

While I'd love to have Clady or Long or Albert holding down the right side of the line, it's just not practical. Albert is probably the cheapest of those 3 guys, and he's probably looking at around 8M/year. There is no way we can afford to invest ~20M a year in two tackles.

If a single good option does not present itself (Andre Smith might be the guy, but maybe not), I wouldn't mind targeting two guys in the 2-4M dollar range. We might get more bang for our buck, since we could protect ourselves against potential injuries, but they would probably all be upgrades over our current group.

I love the age and contracts idea. Money is harder to find than you think though, so help me out with that. Injury history for some of these cats may be pretty long, though, hahaha.

I'll do my best to find the info on guys. It'd be nice if Rotoworld kept a record of all previous contracts for players, rather than just giving the overall number of the current contract and then base salary for remaining years. Still, there should be info out there somewhere, I'll get what I can and post it.

[ajlaird82]

I want jarius byrd!!!!!!!

Go ducks!!!!

They do have Tramon Williams and Casey Heyward so who knows maybe they do let him walk? He's far and away my favorite free agent from this class and I would be incredibly happy if they could pull that off.

For all the Andre Smith guys, Isnt this the overly large and probably obese RT who ran with his shirt off at the combine? so you really think he is mobile enough to run the ZBS? I noticed him vs the Ravens and he is still HUUUUUGE

Yes he has moobs, but he's pretty damn athletic and would definitely be an upgrade at RT.

[emor09]

I wonder if having Raheem Morris in our secondary could help us land Aqib Talib.
