Who cares how much he got. You guys do realize there is a certain amount of money we need to spend. I am not spend all the way to the limit, but we need to spend to the minimum.....just saying.

i would rather see the money spent on the interior line than sanders, who i think is just another guy.

But is it really an either/or proposition? Can you say with any certainty that if we spend money on one guy we won't be able to spend money on another guy?

Is this report true? I haven't seen anything else about it

Shock the world

C-Dub93 · 03-13-2014, 11:48 AM

I feel like this isn't true.

1010xl hasn't tweeted anything nor anyone else.

I don't think pirk would lie about that though haha

Agreed, but that caller might have.

IDK, I sure hope it's true. I think i've shown how much I like Em, but I feel like we would have heard something by now.

True.

All we can do is wait

Seeing that it was a mod who posted it I thought it was true. Maybe it is. I'm sure he wouldn't knowingly post it if he didn't think it was true. As for the caller... I hope 1010xl wouldn't report something that a caller tells them. If they did, I think it would be fun to call up and tell them that nasa just found space monkeys on mars. And I googled space monkeys and it seems to check out.

@AdamSchefter: After his visit to Jacksonville on Wednesday, Steelers WR and @tunasweasel's Markman 50er Emmanuel Sanders is visting Tampa today.

Sucks.

But yeah, I was iffy on a random caller saying the guy was going in for a physical. Still holding out hope though.

Stiggymaynne · 03-13-2014, 12:31 PM

The way Tampa is spending he may sign with them today

Nah, doesn't suck....he's just a guy anyway.....and another one of those "guys" that had -his- career year in a contract year.....not that -his- career year was all that special anyway.

We disagree on Sanders. Sure, it's not like it's impossible to find a guy like that...but not every rookie pans out. Would rather get a sure thing in Sanders as well as pick up a rookie or two, which would be a strong possibility.

Except, its not a sure thing. Was Marcedes Lewis a "sure thing" after his contract year? No he went right back to being a non impact player as soon as he got paid.

I could easily see Em Sanders reverting to his pre contract year production after he gets his new deal. He's not that good.

I'd much rather choose someone else in FA, or draft a WR.

Well nothing is a sure thing, but Caldwell and co. came out and said that they view Blackmon as a luxury and not a sure thing. I doubt we roll with Shorts, Sanders, and Brown at WR. Even if we added Em, it still would be unlikely we stand pat.

Also, his pre-contract year production was when he was their 4th options pretty much behind Mike Wallace, Antonio Brown, and Heath Miller.

He was their 4th option behind those players for a reason....

We'll have to agree to disagree regarding Em Sanders ability.

Yeah, because Mike Wallace and Antonio Brown are both good receives (Wallace is overrated, but in his time with PIT he was very good).

A caller also just stated he was spotted with our staff at JOI.

Mmmmmmmm TMD tears will be delicious
