Whew, you had me for a second there!

With Jarius Byrd going to visit Saints, do you think that opens it up for Jairus Byrd to visit Packers?

Haven't heard anything about him planning a visit to Green Bay.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

once a team has them in the building, they try hard as hell to not let them walk out without a contract.

it seems the Saints and Byrd would only meet if they had the ammo and desire to make a deal.

Just a little after 4pm on the first day of FA and almost all of the top FA Safeties have signed with other teams, except for Byrd.

49ers signed FS Antoine Bethea

Eagles signed FS Malcolm Jenkins

Broncos signed FS TJ Ward

Along with that, both DL discussed were also signed away, Lamarr Houston to CHI and Arthur Jones to IND.

C'mon Ted! Sign him! 3-time Pro Bowl Player, 3-time All-Pro, 2-time AFC INTs leader...

I'm glad we didn't go after Mike Mitchell (signed with Steelers) either since his only really productive season was last year playing behind the beastly front 7 of the Panthers. Clemons and Byrd are the only really good guys left out there.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Looks like Clemons may be headed to PIT steveishere. Ach, if it happens, it happens. Otherwise, we will be drafting a new S, and will be expecting him to start straight away. I just don't want us to go that route with such an important position of need. I'd rather have the best vet FA we can land back there...

Zero2Cool (22-Jul) : I had to manually move three posts.

Mucky Tundra (22-Jul) : But when I go it, Martha's is the last reply

Mucky Tundra (22-Jul) : Still a little screwy; it shows on the main forum that you were the last person to reply to the Jenkins trade thread
