    ..for re-signing Kerry Collins. Plus, we know we are at a standstill with AH. So what do you guys think the strategy is for our FO being to slow to re-sign starters? It seems like the longer they wait, the more they'll have to pay these guys. With AH (who I think is a goner) the $$ goes up every day between now and the free agency start. Maybe they're letting KFC test the market to see if he realizes we're his best option? Thoughts?

    They're probably really busy working on a detailed contract extension for Donnie Nickey. :suspect:

    I know I sound like a broken record but no one is signing UFAs right now for a reason. AND, with the exception of a situation like Collins, I don't expect many to be signed because they'd be insane to do so with the kind of money that will be offered for mediocre talent on the open market.

    Anyone who accepts an offer right now knows it isn't as good as what they'd get Feb 24.

    I'd be willing to bet that AH signs elsewhere within the first 24 hours of UFA.


    Just like Kearse did.

    & I'm going to go out on a limb & predict it will AGAIN be Philly that does it!

    If Philly does, they will remind me of the 'slow' kid who is fascinated by the glowing hot stove burner, reaches out and touches it and burns himself. Then three minutes later walks right back over to the glowing burner and touches it again. Then three more minutes later...

    But I guess you can't fix stupid.

    I don't like it that Albert and Manning are bonding at the pro bowl. I want him out of the division. He'd be more motivated playing us twice a year.

    One thing i noticed that me and the Titans have in common is, we like to wait untill the very last minute to get something done when we knew it had to be done months in advanced.

    Texans will be all over Albert if we dont sign him.

    They would love to take something from Bud Adams. i hear they had a big fuss over Vince Young.
