According to this story in the Denver Post, Niko is a target of the Broncos as well.
Providing that Tampa doesn't get him first. It is looking increasingly like Niko won't be back with the Hawks. It is too bad. This is simply the price a team pays for sustained success. People always point to how Patriot players sign with other teams and then are busts. Well, maybe that is because teams put an inordinate amount of stock in their roles on winning teams and expect too much. This could be a trend that takes place with the Hawks now. I for one, if I were a GM, would not be handing Koutivides a starting job. That said, I hope he does well with his opportunity. Good Luck Niko! End of Post

I've got to agree. I don't see Niko as a starter, but my judgement may be tainted because the Hawks' linebackers are possibly, no they are, the best in the league. Gotta hope he does well wherever he goes though.
ReplyDeleteIf we can't sign him, or brown, and we sign Crumpler to a modest deal, how much under the cap will we be assuming Trufant doesn't renegotiate and neither does Shaun?
