2011 NFL Offseason Thread

[Meacon Keaton]

And Jeremy Shockey signed with Carolina.

[Mysterio2000X]

And Bob Sanders with the Chargers.

And Shaun Rogers with the Saints, which I really like for them.

Hopefully there is none, for his sake. Maybe he'll make it past the trading deadline in that case?

Tiki Barber is attempting a comeback. No, that is not a headline from The Onion. Has he lost his mind? I'm guessing someone reached out to him and told him he was horrible as a TV correspondent? Or is this because of his divorce settlement and the need for a big pay day?

Bingo. In short, fuck Tik-me.

His fumbles, whinyness and oldness had better stay away from the Giants. It still makes me smile rewatching his comments on Eli at the start of the 2007 season, love him for that!

There is a better chance that me or you will play HB for the Giants next year then there is of Tiki doing it. Did anyone else catch Antonio Pierce ripping into Tiki on ESPN about 15 minutes ago?

[TCO]

He'll still be Giants property though, so theres always the offchance. I don't think anyone will touch him though once the Giants cut him.

I don't see any way that the Giants bring back a 36 year old Tiki Barber. Its not like he left on the best of terms in the first place. Didn't he get booed at the New Meadowlands Stadium when he showed up last year?

They're going to cut him. If he quits again, we're due for another title the following season

I read NBC didn't renew his contract to stay in "Football Night in America" so the guy needs money.

[Meacon Keaton]

If he's smart, he'd try getting a job as running backs coach at a university. Him wanting to come out of retirement makes me think he may not have those smarts.

Tiki's agent claims there are some "interested suitors". Interested suitors implying there are teams willing to give him the shot to be a no. 2 or no. 3 RB of course. He better be bracing himself for the league minimum.

[Meacon Keaton]

I can't even see any team wanting to take a look at him. No one wants a 36-year old running back that has been in training. Let alone one that has been working as a reporter for the last three years. His agent is just lying. It's what they do to make other people think there is interest, when there isn't. Someone mentioned it earlier, but any of us would attract the same amount of attention that Tiki is right now.

The league minimum for players with 10 years of playing time or more is $865,000. He will also probably get a signing bonus and other incentives.

[GhostMachine]

I'm betting that unless he's doing this because he needs the money he'll end up retiring again. He'll be either a 3rd down RB or a back up riding the bench.

[Toe]

There has to be some interest. Would he come out of retirement without first seeing if there was a market for him?

I'm not going to rag on him until I see him perform. He could still add something. Still, I don't think anyone will want him for more then a minimum and no one will want him as more then a situational guy.

[livid]

I think this is all a ploy for him to sign with the Bucs and then him and Ronde can do the wrestling twin switcharoo to mess with people's heads.
