TODD Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 John Clayton lists Toomer as a potential cap-casualty on ESPN.com. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2341755 I don't know about you all, but he might be a good fix for a year or so while we get our defensive line and a couple of other positions figured out. He's a veteran, he has size, he can help us in the NFC East, and he can still play. He's been relegated to the #4 option in the passing game in NY (behind Plex, Shockey, and Tiki), but I think it's more about their excellence rather than his weak play. For the right price, I think he'd be a good enough number two that we'd have ourselves a significant upgrade at that position with room to draft and groom a player for the future. Most importantly, Amani does stretch the field and will certainly command attention off of Moss, and IMO, he would do a better job of doing so than Patten. In regard to a contract, a 60-catch, 31-year old receiver can't command a huge number. I think he might be attainable, and since we're a good team with a good future and he's approaching the end of his career, we might be an even better fit for him. A Moss-Toomer-Patten-Rookie wideout corps doesn't look so bad to me. What about you all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

authentic Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 why would we cut Lavar if the is a $120,308 charge against our cap... It would make more sense to keep him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I'd take Toomor. Good, proven reciever over time. Do you think he would cost more then Moulds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvan1 Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 no thanks on toomer... something about other players/personnel from the NFC east has really hurt our team... (ex: micheal barrow, norv turner, jeremiah trotter, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovetoaster Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Toomer probably will get cut, but I would not seriously consider signing him. He has been a hell of a receiver during his career, but I don't think he has much left. I would much rather have Moulds, I think he has a lot more football in him.

Lil Kenzo Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 All I know is that thwe skins' really need to do something about that #2 WR position. Amani might not be the long term option, but neither is Patten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDSKNfaithfull Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 If we can't even sign back guys like Ryan Clark and Royal what makes you think we can afford Toomer???
