adam Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Source: Teams showing 'serious interest' in impending unrestricted free agent DT Terrance 'Pot Roast' Knighton include OAK, WAS, IND & CHI. https://twitter.com/JosinaAnderson/status/574632313893449728 I would hope that if we wanted him, we would have a leg up considering Fox (assuming he liked Fox). Oakland has the money, Indy has the best chance for winning now, and Washington is where good players go to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scs787 Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Lol You've been a step ahead of me all day. I think Del Rio and Oakland have the leg up here. Might be worth noting he was fined for his weight last year. Not sure if that was put forth by Fox or Elway. Also...I currently have pot roast in my slow cooker, so maybe it's a sign.

If you indeed are cooking pot roast, I would say that is a pretty good sign. Might be the Knighton variety or the Shelton variety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be the Knighton variety or the Shelton variety. Same here. Ya, this also shows they would be interested in Shelton because of his size. I know some here disputed that fact. Pot Roast has been in the slow cooker since 11.....Gonna have to save some back to celebrate with if we get him. Or throw it in the trash if we don't lol. Raiders have already missed out on Suh, Cobb, and now Julius Thomas(Jags), all of whom they were connected to, so they could end up severely overpaying Knighton.

Yeah, I think we literally need one or the other if we are going to a 3-4. With Del Rio's history (JAX and DEN), and with OAK's cap situation (and missing out on Suh), they are probably the first option. lol on pot roast!

With Pace being so tight lipped, Im not sure you can trust anything you read. A lot of rumors are media injecting their opinion into the rumor.

With the Raiders having a lot of money and Del Rio, I would say we wont win a price war. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can dispute if you'd like, but I think he's legit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Market could get pricey. #Bears There was a thread a while ago that pointed out Fangio's preference at NT and I believe the poster sighted weights and heights of his former NTs and that didn't fit Knighton or Shelton's physical make up.BTW just because their is interest reported doesn't mean he is a done deal, since he has hit a couple means he is due for a miss or two.

And I threw Isaac Sopoaga's name out there as a rebuttal. The best D they had in Fangios 4 years was with 6'2" 330 pound Sopoaga back there......Obviously a guy like Shelton/Knighton isn't a must, but I'm sure they aren't out of the question either. No one is saying it's a done deal, in fact most agree that he probably lands in Oakland BTW, Lemming tweeted that he'd rather have Ratliff/Ego at NT and sign Odrick, so I don't think this is a situation where he's just throwing out a player he wants.

adam Posted March 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 huge rumor, so take it with a grain of salt, but a guy in this thread said it is a done deal: ✶ Sports Mockery ✶ @sportsmockery 10m10 minutes ago Chicago Bears reportedly making a run at Terrance Knighton, would be a huge addition in the middle of the 3-4 defense.

I'm real anxious to see what the next team is that starts breaking deals. Based on rumors, as of right now it appears we are signing Pot Roast and the safety from Buffalo.

adam Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Looks like we will not being getting any potroast. @SI_PeterKing, Terrance Knighton is "likely leaving Denver for Washington or Oakland." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Yeah, and potentially one of the centers (Hudson/Wisniewski). Please let this be true. Especially if it's Wisniewski. That's an immediate upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ54 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Looks like we will not being getting any potroast. Then let's say hello to Dan Williams. If nothing else this indicates we are not looking to overspend for a player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
