Dimitroffisoursavior Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 What would he be looking for in years and money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalofalcon Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 i would assume he looking for a range of 5-7years at 6-8 mill a year... what he deserves is more like 3-5 mill (in my opinon since hes never been a starter) i think Texans and maybe Titans go for him..

widespreadhaggrd Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I wouldn't be suprised if we took a shot on him. I could see him being the sledgehammer in the Mularky offense ala Jerome Bettis. Probably will take about 5 years $30M + total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Sarcomere Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I would rather take Forte sometime in the late second early third round range. We could get Forte for a waaaaaaaaaay cheaper price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see anything close to that in Michael Turner.Turner is a good RB who is going to be grossly overpaid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Michael Turner picked the absolute worst year to be a FA. With the draft loaded the way it is at RB, why would you pay big bucks for a backup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Offseason Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 more than wed be willing to pay him.id rather get a bargain in matt forte, mike hart, ray rice or tashard choice in the 3rd-4th round range than spend millions on a guy who has never been the featured back, and has been getting the carries behind the best RB in the nfl after the defense is tired.thats just my opinion. he will get overpaid and i hope we arent the team to do it.

MidWest Falcon Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Look at our IMD Fa list and see what I offered him. I think it is what he is looking for. I gave him this:Michael Turner RB6 yrs: 12 million BonusYr1: 4 millYr2: 4.5 millYr3: 5 millYr4: 5.5 millYr5: 6 millYr6: 6.5Yr 1 Cap Hit: 6 millionTotal Salary: 43.5 million*** I would rather take Forte if I was the Falcons GM though *** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
