But some major holes have been filled

What can you say. They keep swinging and striking out on these guys.

I actually feel bad for the front office guys. They seems to by trying, but we all just sit here watching these guys go elsewhere.

Something wrong with the link?
I can't get it to come up.

A little more than a week into the free-agent signing period, the Vikings have filled holes at wide receiver, safety, fullback and kick returner, but have gone 0 for 3 in their search for a starting defensive end.....

Thanks my friend.
Very interesting read.

I have faith in ole Rick.
He will get a guy in that will fill the hole at LDE. The more I look at his stuff I like either Cambell or Merling who could both be there at 17.

Add one of these two guys'

Tony Hargrove





Unrestricted Bills


6-3 272lbs 4 years 10.5 career sacks
Josh Thomas






Unrestricted Colts

6-5 271lbs 4 years 6 career sacks

For a lineup that looks like this.

RDE
Edwards/Robison/Grigsby (or James)
DT
K-will/Evans
DT
Phat Pat/Rookie
LDE Mitchell/Hargrove or Thomas/Campbell or Merling

Hey Marr a little more research next time my friend

ROCHESTER, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills defensive end Anthony Hargrove pleaded guilty Monday to disorderly conduct, drawing a $300 fine and 200 hours of community service for an altercation with police outside a Rochester nightclub in August.

Hargrove, 24, was charged with resisting arrest, criminal mischief and harassment after police said he broke an officer's eyeglasses during an early morning encounter on Aug. 5 while the Bills were in town for preseason training camp.

But more importantly ;D

NFL suspends Hargrove for season after 3rd substance abuse violation
Associated Press

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills defensive end Anthony Hargrove was suspended without pay for all of next season Monday by the NFL after violating the league's substance abuse policy a third time.

The violation was Hargrove's second since August, when he was suspended without pay for the first four games of the regular season.

A third violation triggers an automatic one-year suspension, and Hargrove must apply to commissioner Roger Goodell for reinstatement.

D'oh!!
Guess he's off the list.
Thomas would be worth talking to...experience with Tampa2.
Young.
Not much experience...reasonably priced depth.
But, if they've got their minds set on a guy in the draft, that roster spot may be spoken for.

Might be bargain basement in your book, but they are all that are left in my book.
Who do you think is better on the FA market that is left?
