If I were you guys, I would be worried about cap space trying to sign Rice. Whomever gets him, whether it be Minny or Seattle (rumor I heard today) will severely overpay him. Not Berrian level, but more than one good/great year is worth considering his durability 'issues'.

I'd love to keep him on my team, but not at the risk of overpaying for him.



Now you are just starting to sound like Marrdro. That's too bad, I kinda liked ya. =P

He is a talented player.. no doubt.. IMO one of the underrated deep threats in the game.. but he will not fit us in terms of salary.

In a cap less world.. yes. In reality.. nope.

I would rather resign Jones and give Driver a farwell tour of sorts or have him restructure his deal.

That and we have a gaggle of WR being brought in again.. we will find a gem someplace in there in the worst case scenario.

If the Vikes trade for McNabb and overpay for Rice.. they are severely forked this season. [grin1]

I'm with the majority. Rice is a good player, but the Packers are deep at WR and have much better places to spend their money.

(In that scenario, A D is only a Viking rental that fell into their lap due to blind luck [grin1] )

I like Sidney Rice, but he'd probably be only a 4th WR on our team. Maybe a 3rd, depending on matchups. Not counting TEs.

But no, obviously not. If we're going to give anyone a ridiculous FA contract that the player can't possibly be worth, it better be at a position we're not stacked at. Kamerion Wimbley would've been great, had the Raiders not tagged him. Mathias Kiwanuka would be interesting to see play opposite of Clay.

without injury, he would be a #2 at worst. maybe even better than Jennings as a deep threat, he uses his size very well...

although Rodgers rarely puts the ball in a circus-catch position [grin1]


some good O-line out as FAs this year, i'd rather we make a run at one of them.
