Warner's 1 year deal is worth $4M....

That's highway robbery for him.

Cardinals | Starting O-line Set for 2005 - from www.KFFL.com
Sun, 6 Mar 2005 09:28:15 -0800

Kent Somers, of the Arizona Republic, reports Arizona Cardinals head coach Dennis Green said the signing of free agent OT Oliver Ross is the final piece for the club's starting offensive line in 2005. The projected starters include LT Leonard Davis, LG Reggie Wells, C Alex Stepanovich, RG Jeremy Bridges and RT Oliver Ross. "We're a very young offensive line, but we're frisky," Green said. "I think having Oliver come in helps us a lot. He's an emerging talent and that's what we really like."

Eagles coach up another low round guy, and he goes on to start elsewhere.  The thing I like about Bridges already cracking the starting lineup (he did actually midway through last year) is that it shows the Eagles really do like some of the young guys they kept instead of Bridges.

Agent: Burress to visit Giants

By JON KRAWCZYNSKI, AP Sports Writer
March 6, 2005
Free agent wide receiver Plaxico Burress will visit the New York Giants on Monday to discuss becoming the deep threat that Eli Manning so desperately needs.

Burress' agent, Michael Harrison, told The Associated Press Sunday that his client will leave from Miami Monday morning and spend the afternoon in New York.

``The Giants are very much appealing to Plaxico,'' Harrison said. ``They have some of the key things we're looking for.''


Harrison said Burress, who has been talking with several teams including the Minnesota Vikings, wants to go to a team with a good tight end, good running back and good quarterback.

With Jeremy Shockey at tight end, Tiki Barber at running back and an emerging Manning throwing the ball, the Giants qualify.

Burress, who spent the list five seasons with Pittsburgh, would bring his considerable size and big-play ability to a Giants offense that sorely needs both.

Starting receivers Amani Toomer and Ike Hilliard had sub-par seasons, failing to catch a touchdown pass. Toomer is coming off a hamstring injury that bothered him for most of the season, and Hilliard was released Thursday after never fulfilling the promise he had when the Giants drafted him seventh overall out of Florida in 1997.

``They need a No. 1 receiver,'' Harrison said. ``Plus, it's New York City and Plaxico is a very marketable guy.''

Burress is the biggest name receiver left on the free-agent market. At 6-foot-5 and 226 pounds, the five-year veteran has the size and speed to get down the field and catch the fade pattern in the end zone, which no doubt is attractive to Manning heading into his first full season as a starter.

His best season came in 2002, when he had 78 catches for 1,325 yards and seven TDs. But an injury last season and quarterback inconsistencies contributed to lower numbers in 2003 and 2004.

Giants owner Wellington Mara was hugely disappointed by last season's 6-10 record, saying he was glad the season was over and the only solution appeared to be to ``get better players.''

With that, the Giants have been one of the most active teams in free agency, signing linebacker Antonio Pierce from Washington for $26 million and giving Jets tackle Kareem McKenzie $37.75 million to protect Manning.

I'm a little late perhaps, but is Denny Green farging insane?!  I want Warner's agent next time I negotiate a salary.

Maybe Brenda (not the QB) Warner will melt in the sun or something. Or maybe someone down in Zona will chop of her lezzie haircut and give her something good.

I kinda feel sorry for the cards.  even Kurt though can be good with Fitzgerald and Boldin, plku sthe emergence of Brynat Johnson.
