Not a fan of McNutt. I thought he looked pretty average at the Senior Bowl.
And he measured in at 6'2 212lbs.
Measured at 6'2 1/2" -- basically the same size except slightly taller than counterpart Criner (6'2 1/8").
Would not mind adding either in the third. But have not heard about our scouts showing interest in Criner. Obviously, that doesn't mean they aren't though. Would be on board with either in the 3rd at this point.
Scouting showing interest is a funny concept. They'll scout 250+ players, and you'll hear about 15 of them in any given off-season. They talked to Criner at the Sr. Bowl, but then again, they'll talk to every other prospect from a big school, and a ton more from small schools.
I agree, Scouts pretty much have the same generic questions that companies ask during job interviews. If you can be near a guy while another team is talking to him you can pretty much interview the guy without getting the "OMG THIS TEAM IS REALLY TALKING TO ME" kind of responses directed at you.
Nice mock OTC. Just a background question, if we don't re-sign Ginn or Brooks where does the money go? Are we just stock piling money and/or extending current players? I know the question is a bit of a stretch but why would we chose not re-sign them?
1) We will need the money for the following:
* Alex Smith's new deal
* Carlos Rogers' new deal
* Da'Shon Goldson's new deal or tag value
* Extensions for Sopoaga and RJF.
* Any other FAs we bring in.
2) I think we would try, but they may look for bigger paydays than we can afford, elsewhere.
Morgan should come at a bargain, as well as some of our ST guys. Overall, I think we will lose/not re-sign/cut the following players:
Shawntae Spencer
Reggie Smith
Madieu Williams
Chilo Rachal
Justin Peele
Moran Norris
Larry Grant (we'll give him a low tender and I think someone will pick him up)
We should give Grant a 4th round tender, I can totally see a LB needy team signing him. We have like 43 mill in cap room and as long as Alex takes a reasonable salary(10 mill yr or so) we should be able to atleast spend on 1 guy who is an outside FA .
