My Mock 1.0 aug

Jesus dude.

You predict us to have two wins on teh season, we have 9, plus a playoff appearance, we send 4 guys to the probowl including our first two picks, and exceed everyones expectations. We didn't lose Zimmer or Gruden this offseason, and we have a couple first round picks and 45 million in free agency to spend, more than anyone else, and we have to spend 90% of our cap at the minimum this year, next year 99%.

WTF is your deal? You have no decent expectations for this fucking team or what??

None.

I don't care if you grew up with this team and from the area, you might want to seriously start following another team.

Just because you have no hope or faith in the team to do better, why do you have to ruin everyone elses positive outlook?

"You can't handle the truth!"

"You complete me!"

All we are is dust in the wind

 

[cincygrad]

Finnegan is the best corner on the market - No contest. And he would actually give us a defender with balls - Something this team needs.

 

[Cincyfan78]

Definately need a player that will give this team an attitude.

 

[flamingrey]

I'd love to line Finnegan up next to Hall.

 

[vancelot23]

Fuck Finnegan.

 

[Servo]

We need more dudes like Finnegan on this team (tough, smart, talented, competitive) less guys like Maulaluga, PacMan etc. Finnegan would be the best and biggest FA signing ever which is pretty sad. My guess is that the Titans dont let him go.

 

[vancelot23]

I hope they resign him. I'd rather have Rogers by a long shot, along with several others.

 

[Servo]

I dont think we have a shot at Finnegan...but I'd put him at the top of the list. He's physical, smart. good fit for the AFCN. The guy realistically that I could see signing here would be his team mate Michael Griffin which would be a huge upgrade at safety. We'll see how it plays out...Got some 'kicking tires' to look forward to

 

[vancelot23]

We should have gone after Carlos Rogers last year and should throw the bank at him this year.

 

[cincygrad]

Rogers is probably the 3rd or 4th rated of the free agent corners, is going to be 31 when the season starts and you want to throw the bank at him?

 

[Tubbs1518]

Just curious as to what CB's you have rated over Rodgers. Based on last year he had a FAR superior year that Finnigan. I'd rate Rodgers #1 right now.

 

[cincygrad]

Grimes and Finnegan are probably the two best. Brandon Carr is another. Finnegan has a more impressive body of work than Rogers and is younger.

 

[Servo]

Grimes is a really good corner..I'm usually impressed with him when I see him play. Physical, aggresive and quick. He'd also be a great compliment to Hall and might be cheaper than Finnegan. Then again, I have a hard time seeing these teams let guys like that walk away unless they're up against it cap wise.

 

[vancelot23]

Rogers was FAR better than Finnegan. Grimes would be a better signing, and I'd take Carr and Tracy Porter over Finnegan is well. He's a piece of garbage, and all this "fit for the AFCN" doesn't make sense. How is he a fit? Other than Boldin, who are the WRs in this division. Speed guys like Torrey Smith and Mike Wallace and Antonio Brown. I would hate it if Finnegan is signed.

 

[cincygrad]

The guy gets suspended from one football game and he is a piece of garbage?

Rogers was never viewed as favorably as he was last year. And it should be noted that last year he had the luxury of playing behind one of the best front sevens in the NFL and he played in the NFC-W. Victor Cruz had no trouble handing him his ass in the NFC Championship.

 

[flamingrey]

Harrison is also a piece of garbage. Suh is also a piece of garbage.

I would take both guys on my team any day.

If the transgressions that make them "pieces of garbage" are on the field and not off the field, and they are still in the league, they're probably doing something right.
