With the signing of Cody Barton the LB group is the deepest position on the team at this time. Will extending Wagner still be a top priority for the FA ? I hope they have enough sense to extend the future HOFer ASAP.
He wants a 5 year deal like Mosely with more money of course . He will not give a discount either. Personally I have no problem giving him what he wants. He's just 29 and has been mostly healthy his whole career ; and is the best at his position in the NFL. If they want to make a SB run soon they need him as much as they need Wilson . IMO...extend him.nwHawk":1rjoq6xl said:I would have no concerns about signing Bobby to a 3 year deal. Could he get hurt, sure. But that can happen anytime to any player.
Our LB room is full of bodies, but let's see them in real game action before calling it deep. We have plenty of questions still to be answered.

No. Bobby wants a five year deal and more guaranteed money than Mosley...........and he'll get it. This is a young defense, a very young defense. We desperately not only need Bobby's play, but we desperately need him to anchor the defense, captain it, and be the defensive leader.
MLB's can play well into their mid 30's, don't be worried about a five year deal with Bobby.

That's not what people said about Sherman, Earl, or Bennett in retrospect.
What they said was "no more big contracts to old guys".
