TrashTalker92 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I thought this was pretty cool feature, I don't know how they grade each players but they have Jake Long rated as TOP Free Agent... which deserving so. http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/freeagency/?year=2013&team=19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osi724dasack Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I'd rate Ryan Clady ahead of Long. I think Clady was franchised though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boohyah Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Dashon Golston wasn't franchised by the 49ers, might be on the way out if rumors are they are going after Revis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigblue25 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Can't wait for the Giants to sign Jake long. This is a dream of mine Why we just signed Beatty whose better and it wasn't at ten million a year. Jake Long is way overrated, and always injured.

TrashTalker92 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Beatty better than Jake long???? Wow. As for injury. I think both have been on the sideline just as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 long kinda regressed last year and you don't let 27 year old top left tackles leave for nothing unless there's a reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue25 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Beatty better than Jake long???? Wow. As for injury. I think both have been on the sideline just as much. Beatty started 15 out of 16 games last year, Long played in 12, and commits a sht load of penalties is a poor run blocker and wasn't great pass blocking the past two years. Long has finished the season on IR, two years in row, Beatty really had major injuries in 2010, he hasn't been injured, has much has people think. Long has torn his Labrum and Biceps and has already had surgeries on both knees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long has torn his Labrum and Biceps and has already had surgeries on both knees Jake long has been to 4 pro bowls in the last 5 or so years. Dude is a stud Linemen, great left tackle. I don't know where you get the "shit load of penalty " from. The guy been playing for crappy QBs one after another and yet he still kept them up right. Injury is there but he is still young at 27 and I believe he'll bounce back from it. He's one of the top LT in the game today along with joe Thomas. We could only wish to land a guy like him. Beatty is no where near pro bowl from what he has done with his time in the league. Yes he been injured and learning since being drafted but Jake Long was voted to the pro bowl during his first two season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 why are the dolphins letting him go for nothing then? it's a 27 year old 4 time pro bowl left tackle that they've already invested the first overall pick in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we don't need Jake Long, and you don't pay $10+ million for a player you don't need. We need a solid, tough, RT. Keep in mind you just paid Beatty on average $7+ million a year to play LT, a good signing for a good player. You're not going to pay a street FA to play RT for more than that. Maybe you go for a Jeremy Trueblood for $4.5 million per year or maybe you target a guy like DJ Fluker in the draft, who can start right away at RT. And we really don't know much about how the organization feels about Brewer's development, if he can step in at RT. So whatever they do or don't do in free agency at RT will be telling as far as just how they feel about Brewer, in particular. He's still around, so that's something.

Great point.. like i said before it would be a dream to sign Jake Long but i know it won't be possible as we just sign Beatty and don't have room for another huge signing.. i'm just trying to point out that Jake Long is a top player and Miami could let him go because they can't pay the money he's asking.. same thing with Mario WIlliams that went to the Bills..

mastershake Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 For the rest of FA, I can see Reese signing an OL, TE and LB. Whether that includes Boothe and/or Bennett remains to be seen. With Jenkins signed, these three positions have the most holes. We definitely can't go nuts and spend huge sums of money. I'd prefer to see a couple FA LBers if possible; Lord knows Reese can't draft LBs for some reason (Wilkinson, Sintim, Dillard, Jones, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boohyah Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Something tells me we are about to lose Boothe, you have to wonder how his agent is feeling seeing as we already paid out for Jenkins who was cut. I know what will be said, 2 different positions, but money is money and they might feel they should have taken care of their own first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
