Cool Mitchell or Spikes to Giants?

From Big Blue View:
Quote:
The Giants have moved on after backing out of a potential deal for Denver's Al Wilson, and are reportedly in the hunt for a couple of other linebackers.
According to the Buffalo News the Bills are looking to move Takeo Spikes. also, according to the NFL Network, Kansas City free agent linebacker Kawika Mitchell will visit the Giants today.

Spikes, 30, is also drawing interest from the Eagles. He is coming off two injury-plagued seasons, having missed most of 2005 with a torn achilles tendon and sitting out several games last season with a hamstring pull. He is also due $4.6 million this season.

A friend of mine who is a Bills fan said Spikes might not be the dominating player he was before his achilles injury, but that he would be worth the risk for a second-day draft pick.

Spikes knows that last season wasn't his best, and thinks maybe he came back too quickly from the achilles injury.

Mitchell, 27, is a four-year veteran who had 105 and 104 tackles the past two seasons. Mitchell, who is 6-foot-1, 253 pounds, is an unrestricted free agent. He played in the middle for Kansas City but would move outside if he comes to New York.

So, it looks like GM Jerry Reese still has a few cards to play before the upcoming draft.
Spikes or Mitchell, which would better for the Giants?

ESPN reported that Kawika Mitchell has signed with the Giants. I believe it's a one-year deal.

Re: Mitchell or Spikes to Giants?

At least Mitchell seems like a healthy player unlike Emmons and Arrington were when they were brought in. If he can merge to the outside and be as productive as he was in the middle in the past couple of years, he could be a nice addition.

If he's a starter, it looks like the Giants will only need to add one more starter on the other outside line backer spot.
