Is it within the rules to franchise a player and sign him to a long term deal? If so, franchising Delmas makes a ton of FFMD sense. Unless, of course, you think we should be "100% realistic"... then it shouldn't be a possibility.
(If we did that, Houston would need to be our re-signing priority.)
We could then target SLH in FA. _________________

Franchising Delmas would be a terrible move if we don't get the price down with a long term deal. He is way too much of a risk with his questionable health history to invest very much in him. If he walks then oh well. I just don't see him worth a lot of money. _________________

In real life, I agree 100%. In FFMD, and considering how inflated contracts always are, $6M for Delmas might be completely reasonable. _________________

Do we have any interest in Malcolm Jenkins, if the deal is changed around a bit? _________________

I would. I know the vote was close and some comments were not firm, so if they have something better to offer, than we should revote. _________________

Also, I just watched some more tape on Princess Tiger Lily (hooray for using code), and I think we should definitely consider him. He's very underrated, and I think he could be great for us. _________________ Kate Upton for sexy President!!!

I wouldn't touch him at $6 million in the FFMD either. Sure, contracts are inflated, but that's cap space that can be used more efficiently. Let someone else waste $6 million on him. _________________

I would be happy if we could land either him, bambi, or abu in the draft. Provided we don't reach for any of them. _________________

I've been studying and watching tape on Esmeralda and in my eyes from what I've seen he has the potential to be the best player in this draft class. _________________
