Plax has dropped gimmes before. I'm not saying Hixon is Plax but can you remember any other big drops Hixon had this year? He's very good at catching passes in traffic over the middle of the field.

I have more hope than him than I did with Moss but its still not much...

Plax dropped passes too. What we need is a guy that demands double coverage. How many big plays did Plax make this year? Not that many, yet he was obviously the biggest part of our O. Edwards does have more gamebreaking ability and commands the same respect as Plax. Drops shouldn't scare us off. Idk about a first rounder but a 2nd and 5th is a no brainer.

Through the farm. I've read a lot that says we've rushed him, so I'll trust the opinions of scouts. Young's 32 alraedy?

I think Wright deserves a pass for 07 and Beltran a pass for 08. They both played well in the stretch runs.

I love F-Mart's talent too but I don't want to wait anymore. He's gifted but he's also been through injuries and an team that has been impatient with him and rushed him up. OF prospects and the Mets just don't mesh. Having a team-oriented ballplayer like Young would add so much to this lineup NOW and for the future. And fill a void at 2b.

That's not unethical. Manny did more harm to himself by bitching his way out of Boston than Boras did in getting his client (teixera) an awesome deal.

In a stunning late february trade the Mets are going to swing Fernando Martinez and a young pitching prospect to the Rangers for SS--soon to be 2b Michael Young. Maybe they'll throw in Saltalamachia too I feel it

This article seems to be based off a series of hypothetics. We don't know if Boras has ever forced his client to sign with a team that he didn't want to. IMO its a lot of nothing.

would you have called the giants offense consistent in the regular season? no, and they were still twice the O pitt had this year.

i'd be over it if we got a veteran LF with pop. but if we stick with the 3 guys we have right now then ill be pissed

Accorsi said he was

It doesn't say in there that the Giants are interested in him. Just that there's some in the organization who are completely against it.

If we trade for Jermaine Dye and re-sign Ollie I'll consider them legitimate enough to win the division. No way in hell we can go into the season with Murphy, Tatis, and Church as our OFs. Who's our 2b?

i actually thought it was a philly fan till i saw the title. that's embarrassing...

He's right to an extent. I think our line is perfect for him and he's perfect for our line. He's probably the best back for our line to block for because they give him decent enough room in his holes to generate speed which makes it a lot harder for him to be brought down.

What team's jersey would he go in with too?

We need a veteran prescence in our secondary. Especially since it looks like Butler's on his way out

It's a team effort. We don't win those 4 if our D doesn't play so well, and we don't win those 4 if Eli doesn't play so well. Honestly, who cares who fueled it?

You don't know that. The pace of the game dictates how it goes. If Eli didn't convert four third downs on the first drive and drain ten minutes of the clock things might have been different. The offense didn't score much not just because they didn't execute to perfection but there weren't that many drives and the Pats defense is very good.

Spags was the LB coach for the Eagles and that was their worst position at the time. He's a coach not a miracle worker. He wasn't going to give Danny Clark skills, he wasn't going to make Pierce faster, and he wasn't going to make Blackburn another Jessie Armstead.

Too bad Mike Nolan was hired earlier this week

Maybe if Spags flops and the rams don't choose to extend him he'll come in as our HC in four years...

I like Dez Bryant or Jeremy Maclin. Harvin could be good but he looks too injury prone.

I loved Spags but in November when it was clear our front 4 wasn't going to be able to generate that good of a rush it was up to him to design schemes to get to the QB. And we never really did. I'm not going to say we're not going to miss a beat with him but if we take someone from within the blow won't be too bad.
