I don't know if they are exactly conflicting reports Z. The JSO piece seems to be an article, which may have been put together a while ago. Even yesterday was ages ago as far as free agency is concerned. the NFP piece is breaking news, a scoop even.

Z? What? I didn't say they were conflicting reports. Don't make me find you and slap wet noodles on your face!


So, with the Giants getting Rocky, Seahawks getting Cole... doesn't that leave the door WIDE open for us to get Canty?

Losing Cole most likely helps our cause for Canty even more, considering that was his next visit. Cole or Canty? You make the call... just upgrading the CC department.

PACKERS NOT YET PUSHING FOR CANTY
Posted by Mike Florio on March 1, 2009, 3:05 p.m.

With Cowboys free-agent defensive end Chris Canty engaging in an extended visit with the Giants, Greg Bedard of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that the Packers have yet to make a play for Canty.

Agent Brad Blank told Bedard that the Packers had yet to make an offer for Canty, a 3-4 player who could move inside in a 4-3 scheme.

I dont feel at this moment and this could change any form of representation from the Packers that Im going to get a deal from them, Blank said. And you know the old saying: one in the hand is worth two in the bush.

And then the Packers called Blank. So maybe something will still happen.

The impetus could come from the fact that Packers defensive tackle Colin Cole has signed with the Seahawks.

Canty initially was scheduled to visit the Redskins, but the Skins pulled the plug once they signed defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth.

Before free agency launched, Canty mused about possibly signing with the Dolphins, given that V.P. of football operations Bill Parcells drafted Canty while coaching the Cowboys. But the Fins have yet to jump into the fray.

From what I gathered one said the Packers are offering more money and the other said the Packers haven't decided yet, but Thompson doesn't like the original asking price.

Perhaps Thompson made his decision faster than we thought.

Anyways regarding Cole and Canty. Two different players in the 3-4. Canty is a pure 3-4 DE and I actually think he has a lot of upside.

Colin Cole whom I felt is underrated quite a bit by Packer fans would of backed up Ryan Pickett at nose tackle which the Packers do need.

So I wouldn't really play one off of one another as GB could use help at both positions.

Perhaps the reality of Raji is pretty clear to Ted, thus the worry of Cole lessens?

Canty is that techincal non-sack kind of end we need and do not have. In my opinion you can find a Cole 2.0 pretty easily.
