"Also a guy I would love to play with *laughs*"

I've watched Shawn Springs for a long time, and I like the way he plays. I know that he's old now, but he's more than an adequate backup and he would provide even more veteran leadership whether or not Al Harris can return with his unrealistic timetable.

Catch what he says later starting at about 2:40 on the video. "In blitz happy schemes like Dom Capers the CB's don't have to cover as long."

That is his reasoning why he likes Revis and Woodson.

Now days you have to also look at informal teams - the agent or agency. Is he promoting guys who belong to his agent and downgrading guys at a rival agency.

There is more to this stuff than meets the eye.

I agree with that list....

And LOL, he said "Houston Oilers" and didn't even realize he was wrong.

I agree with that list. Asamguah is the most underrated player in the NFL. Sad things a lot of people don't even know about him. He doesn't have big numbers but I realized why when I saw the stats on passes he defended. Teams have just quit throwing his way completely and that's the ultimate compliment. I saw how many balls came his way the last 2 years and forgot what it was but I know I rechecked because I couldn't believe it was right

What would you trade for Asomugha? I would trade a #1,#3 and any of our young CBs.

Woodson isn't the best CB in the league, but he is the best overall DB in the league.

Not trying to be argumentative, but how can you be the best DB in the league and not be the best CB. CBs are DBs. Are you saying he is not the best coverage back in the league but he is the best overall DB in the league?

Yes, if we're just talking coverage corners, there are a couple guys (Revis, Asomugha) that are better. But if we're talking coverage, playing the run, top-level-saftely-like ball hawking ability to create turnovers(not juts INTS but also FF) blitzing, all of that stuff. There isn't a better all-around DB in football than Woodson. Ed Reed is the guy i would compare him with here actually, not revis or anyone else.

Its the same arguement as last year, if the DPOY award was really the "cornerback of the year" award Revis would have won it hands down, however Chuck Wood is one of the most complete defensive players in all of football.

wpr (19h) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
