I wanna get your all's thoughts on him possibly coming to the skins.

I like him, but I read taht he wants the same kind of money that we won't give to Fred Smoot, and in my opinion Fred Smoot is better at covering than Roll, is not to mention he 3 or 4 years younger. So if they are planning on giving him a 12million dollar signing bonus, which is what I read he was looking for, then we might as well give that to Smoot, and keep the secondary in tact!

Smoot is teo years younger but if he wanted 14 mil and Rolle wants 16 mil, maybe Smoot would've taken 12 mil. Smoot is just as good, probably better. I'm not sure I like this possible move.

Smoot also has been injured alot less in career than Rolle has, Rolle seems to be injury prone, he barely played last year, and then he had that neck problem. It seems like every year he misses a couple of games, Smoot has only missed a couple in his entire career.

3 things we MUST do during the offseason

1.We have to keep smoot, he was one of the keys to our 2nd ranked D last year, plus hes pretty young.
2.THE most important goal-Get either Mike williams or Braylon, or else were toast next year, I dont care what it takes.
3.SHIP COLES OUT, hes a distraction to the team.

the thing i heard about rolle is he wants 12 million, while smoot wants something like 14. i agree though, if they're gonna give out that much money then they should just give it to smoot who you know is gonna good. apparently though williams really likes rolle and is begging them to go after him, so that would make me think that it was gonna happen.
