    Ouch. :lol:

    I mean at least Lechler is the best player at his position as opposed to some of the other outrageous deals we've seen going down but ya, 1.2 on a punter is kinda questionable

    Gish is a genuis, even if he doesnt end up with Manning he will take every good FA out there and still have a great team.

    Dude should be doing math problems on boards at Harvard or something.

    Yep. There’s a couple of guys still being bid on, but by and large the guys who make teams great are gone. There’s some depth available, granted, but you don’t try and cut Manning’s salary in half just to get some depth players.

    U think the wave of "cuts" is over? Is this your 1st year?

    People will be cutting good players left and right now trying to sign Manning...Hell I may cut Jake Long and go after him.

    The Redskins only have 35 players signed right now, 6 draft players to pay (4 in the top 2 rounds), that leaves $29M to sign 12 players. Most he can bid on manning was his first bid.

    Um, he can still cut more and trade to make more cap room to sign those rookies and get min salary veterans.

    You draft Jamaal Charles at #17

    You draft Vernon Gholston

    You bid 36 Million on Peyton Manning, get matched, trade for him.
    Now you cut him, only to have a chance to lose him...

    I think this year Peter Kiper is giving out the first ever Fools Gold Gish award

    drafting gholston was my only mistake. jamaal charles is a beast last time i checked. matt ryan is doing pretty well. ahtyba rubin is the browns starting nose tackle, who i got in round 4. also got donald thomas in round 4. i had a great draft that year. not to mention the fact i added vernon davis and michael turner to that offense as well. my browns were beast mode material.

    I heard the Vikings were moving Adrian Peterson, Kevin Williams and Kyle Orton for a mere first rounder. To make cap space for the Manning sweepstakes part 2

    Gish shouldn't be voiding all his bids, they should stand.

    I understand that you remove bids from minimum, but if you're forcing guys to bid elsewhere because of a 6 million bid that is wrong.

    i agree when bids get this high, the 2nd highest moves on to other players, it isnt fair they get stuck like that

    Was it only the Clements bid that it occurred on? I'm trying to catch up with what went on.

    you're going to have to look around, I see a lot of his bids with voided messages all around.

    So you'll have to see if you can find original bids

    I have no way of seeing what was written in those past messages because he simply edited them with "void" instead of deleting them. Unless someone can tell me what players he bid on and for what amount... I cannot do anything.

    If you have the money to spend we might as well spend it. We don't get anything if we finish with more cap space

    The bid on Doug Free by GISH was trumped by the Dallas GM.

    The bid on Nate Clements will rescind back to $5.0M by the Atlanta GM.

    The bid on Terrence Newman will rescind back to $5.25M by the Redskins GM.

    It's either that or rescind all bids made on Peyton Manning, which would be stupid of me to do.

    his strategy is still pretty lame to do all the voiding and make everybody else have to do extra.

    I am contemplating punishing the Titans GM by "voiding" or forfeiting one of their draft picks.
