    I remember reading that Alexander has a hole in his heart. It is something that didn't close when he was a kid. I read something like 20% of people have it. No big deal.

    You have guys like Marcus Cannon and Mark Herzlich who had cancer, their is a long list of players who have conditions and other problems who have career. Look into Frank Alexander for a later round pick he can turn into a stud.

    he hasn't missed a game in 3 years?

    EDIT: In 2009 he only played 14 games.

    So, let's see if I have this right.

    He's had 32 sacks the last 3 years and someone thinks we dont want him???

    I'll take Freeney and Mark Anderson so I can draft Necastro in rnd 1. For those that think we shouldn't take Freeney, what do you propose as an alternative?

    I think we look at Freeney if he gets cut, if they ask for a trade then no way. Unless it is a low pick. He could probably do fairly well for us. Probably good for around 8 or so sacks and some consistent double teams.

    Even with a low pick, Freeney would have to be willing to rework his deal. No way in hell the Titans pay him 19M (or was it a cap hit of 19M?). If he was willing to restructure, he probably would have done it with the colts. He just wants to get paid. He's gonna ask for 13-14M+ if he gets cut.

    Exactly

    I would not be too excited about that, because yea we need the help, but he only has another year or two, tops. I just do not want to get stuck with someone not producing, and has a gigantic cap number.

    Good catch. I just looked up Indy's schedule. Didn't think about him not playing.
