    Anyone on the list that we would be interested in? Maybe our roster moves from earlier in the week were to create room for one or two of these guys?


    Carlos Borja, Fernando Cabados, Pablo Campos, Conor Chinn, Tony Donatelli, Danny Earls, Brian Edwards, Irving Garcia, Cornell Glen, Emmanuel Gomez, Jason Griffiths, Roberto Linck, Yohance Marshall, J.T. Noone, Kwaku Nyameke, Anthony Obodai, Steve Perry, Barry Rice, Osael Romero, Sinisa Ubiparipovic, Carlos Varela, Nick Zimmerman.

    I like Yohance Marshall but center back is not a need position. I think Sinisa Ubiparipovic would be a good squad player (can play in the center and on the left).

    *cough* Cornell Glen *cough*

    I like Irving Garcia, but with our new "depth" at RM (Nyassi, mystery Nigerian, Kinne, Boggs), if we pick a player it would likely be someone at another position.

    Maybe Pablo Campos? I like the idea of Ubiparipovic, too, if he's still in the game.

    Irving Garcia and Connor Chin both showed a lot during RBNY's friendlies last summer. I'd be happy to acquire either of the two, preferably Garcia.

    How about we replace Phelan with that Griffiths guy?

    I think Conor Chinn and Irving Garcia should sign with NE tbh. Garcia is pretty good on both sides of the midfield while Chinn maybe a good option at ST. They are young though so it maybe unlikely that they would sign them without a trial 1st.

    There's probably a good reason why he was released instead of Phelan, players his age who are constantly hurt (Alston) are not worth the time and effort. He also showed little on the field. I think Nicol should get as many waivered players as he can and maybe pick the best one to sign.

    Cornell Glenn always used useful up front whenever I watched SJ last year.

    Apparently no one was picked by anyone.

    Is this another draft where if you pick someone during the draft you get them at their current salary and if you wait 24 hours you can negotiate something lower?

    Pardon my ignorance, but won't they be free agents after they clear waivers? So you could theoretically sign them for whatever they will agree to.
