Brees Tagged = Carl Nicks available

[Bones911]

Drew Brees has just been franchised tagged by the Saints. That makes OL Carl Nicks available.

Should the Giants make some cap room and make a play for him?

The Giants will not be signing any big name FA's. They have no room. Understand there are a few teams that are way under the cap.

Come on, these threads are crazy. It seems like every top FA has been suggested now.

The only Nicks on the Giants next year will be #88.
