If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month.

Nice signing. See how it works this year and then resign him

Mar 30, 2013, 11:16 AM

Like it. Wish it was for two. But, I suspect Grimes is "banking" on a bigger pay day next year.

5.5 million. I'd rather take my chances on Grimes and lease him out a year than know what we have with SS24 and commit to 4 more years.

Hopefully, Ireland will use multiple picks in the draft to upgrade the talent at corner, and if Grimes has a monster season, we can let him walk when he goes to collect his fat paycheck.

Great news! One less glaring weakness gives better options for the draft

Yup. All about options..This puts a certain WR back in play. We don't have to draft a CB in the first or second now.. We can find one later on or use both our 3rds on the secondary and give them a bit more time to develop.

One thing with one year deals , if for whatever reason that player doesn't resign ,him leaving adds to the count for compensatory picks , so one or two such signings and end result could mean a 4th or 5th pick as an addition.

Really like the signing and the 1 year, like many said see how it goes this year, if it works out re-sign him if not get someone in draft this year that can take over. But with added dline lb and now 1 cb, along with improvements on Offense, we need to take a serious step forward this year.

Grimes is talented enough that if he comes back and plays well you re-sign him. He's young enough to still be a core piece for you

Mar 30, 2013, 11:24 AM

Good signing by the soulless ginger.

I wouldnt cut Patterson, he is good vs slot, just not outside. I would not cut anyone until after the draft and even then let players compete for spots behind Grimes and the draft pick

Excellent. I think that pretty much means we won't be taking a corner at 12 assuming Patterson and Marshall aren't released anytime soon.

We have so much flexibility in the draft it's crazy. And i love it! I think we are poised to pounce on any top talent that slips. Werner and Star are very strong possibilities if none of the tackles fall.

Cool! Now all the whining over not signing a FA CB can stop.
One year deal works nicely for all.
