Wallace is another guy like Harvin, Holmes, etc. that will get overpaid by someone based on name.  Wallace is a burner with explosive potential, but, IMO, hasn't played up to his paycheck bracket since Pittsburgh.  On a cheap deal, I'd consider him, but his attitude is too reminiscent of Harvin and Holmes.

29 years old, 6'0" 200 lbs., 8th season, has deep speed, inconsistent hands, and earned a bad rep in Miami. Chances aren't good, but we'll see. Must come cheap.

Word was that the Vikes wanted him at 5-6 million, which I'd call a pretty fair offer for how he's performed - but he wanted a few million more.

Get the impression he still believes he's better / worth more money than he actually is.

Was a bad fit in Minnesota. Bridgewater doesn't have the cannon to take advantage of Wallace's best ability, his deep speed. Since we play Minnesota next season, I'm disappointed he won't be there clunking up their offensive gameplan and locker room.

I'd love to have him but not for anything close to what he wants plus we've got Ginn for another year and he's basically Ted Ginn with a little better hands. If he's available again next year for cheap and we don't re-sign Ginn then absolutely. Not now though.

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
