Giants Sign Arrington

10
Vote

LaVar Arrington, linebacker, signed a seven-year contract with the New York Giants worth about $3.7 million a year.

Arrington, 27, was the second choice over all by the Washington Redskins in the 2000 NFL Draft. He was named to the Pro Bowl in successive years from 2001 to 2003.

A knee injury limited his 2004 season to four games. Arrington played sporadically last season after a financial dispute with team management, knee rehabilitation, and problems with the team.

In an off-season deal with the Redskins, Arrington forfeited $4.4 million in bonuses to become a free agent.

Dude, I'm pretty psyched that Arrington is on the Giants next year. Between him, Strahan and Osi Umeninyora, I bet a lot of QB's are dreading playing the Giants next year.

After playing Matt Bahr at MILB last year, anyone is an improvement. Good job Ernie!

is this a risky signing due to his previous injury issues? if not, what a signing.

i totally agree withp previous poster...strahan, umeniyoro and arrington all healthy will be nearly unstoppable. if eli gets his act together, this could be a great team.

Wow! I guess we'll see if the colts fixed their pass protection problems during the Manning Bowl Sept. 10. As a huge colts fan I'm a little skeered...
