mzf5c5 0 Posted February 18, 2011 Just was watching it on the news and Irsay sent out a tweet. Rotonews also is reporting. Bob is a great player, when he plays. I know there was a lot of hope we could keep him with a restructured deal, but doesn't seem like it will happen right now. I am sure a team will give him a chance, just probably won't be much money in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pimptastic69 0 Posted February 18, 2011 "injuries limited him to only nine regular-season appearances over the next three seasons." He's a fine player when healthy, but, good lord - to only be available for 9 out of 51 weeks? Can you do weekly contracts in the NFL? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mzf5c5 0 Posted February 19, 2011 I heard he snapped a heartstring I heard he tripped leaving the Colts and now is out for the season! It sucks. He is a good player, if he could actually play. Colts fears: He signs with someone else in the AFC South and never gets hurt again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
giraldi02 470 Posted February 19, 2011 A severe risk reward player. He'd be a great addition for veteran leadership and occasional playing time, but I don't think anyone can rely on him to shore up their secondary. I'd like to believe that the Colts will attempt to re-sign him at a more manageable contract. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great Jets mind think alike it was a little bit of a joke but when you think about it, it makes sense. The Jets wouldn't need to rely on him if he gets hurt. But if he can stay healthy... wow!

MedStudent 56 Posted February 21, 2011 The Pats picked up a 31 year old safety a few seasons ago when he was thought to have been washed up. He ended up playing pretty good for them. Rodney Harrison. Sanders will be 30 next season. It would be a little revenge for Vineteri but the Pats would not overpay for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mzf5c5 0 Posted February 22, 2011 So far, he visited the Jags today, didn't sign which makes me happy. He is visiting Buf tomorrow, which I wouldn't mind, as long as he causes problems for the Pats!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mzf5c5 0 Posted February 22, 2011 he means something to u? When Bob plays, he is a lot of fun to watch. I actually believe, the way the Colts used him, most likely caused most of his injuries. He might actually stay healthy on the right team. I don't want to see him go to a team in the Colts division and be an issue every time we play him. If he at least goes somewhere else, I would be happy, plus I could see if he can stay healthy to watch him. So, he is just a player I like and enjoy watching, when he plays.

worm 34 Posted March 4, 2011 Per Rotoworld: Chargers signed SS Bob Sanders to a one-year contract. A bolt from the blue. Sanders had made visits to the Jets, Jags, and Bills, but the Chargers were never mentioned as an interested party. We're guessing the Chargers will still make it a priority to re-sign Eric Weddle at free safety, with Steve Gregory moving back to a nickel role. San Diego is a potential contender with a leadership vacuum on defense, so Sanders is worth the one-year gamble on what is likely an incentive-laden deal. Said Norv Turner, "He's healthy and he's excited about the opportunity." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here is mine: http://rotoworld.com/player/nfl/2789/bob-sanders Since Bob was released, he was able to sign with any team, without a new CBA. He signed before the 4th of March, but even then they have extended it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He signed before the 4th of March, but even then they have extended it. We've yet to see details because the transaction isn't official yet, but it likely contains per-game bonuses based on Sanders making the game-day roster healthy each week. The San Diego Union-Tribune's Nick Canepa believes Sanders can be the Bolts' next Rodney Harrison as a physical presence in the box. Assuming little money is guaranteed, it's a low-risk signing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
