Ongoing NFL discussion thread part 2

[GSC]

First topic message reminder :

Since threads seem to go to 1000 posts

Free Agency:
Mike Wallace, Daniel Ellerbe to Miami
Martellus Bennett to Chicago
Paul Kruger to Cleveland
Greg Toler + 3 head to Colts
Andy Levitre to Tennessee

[Bull]

Happy to take Bennett at TE tbh now if we can get Urlacher to sign back on and would love to get Welker in as well(doubt it though lol)

[GSC]

Eh, on Bennett. Did well on a 1 year, prove it deal in NY, but was really lazy in Dallas.

[BamBam]

Well that explains why Ellerbee walked. Ozzie is far too smart to pay that

[BamBam]

Are you sure you don't want Brandon Myers, Bull?

[GSC]

Yeah that was a step too far for Baltimore, Ellerbe is a good player, but hes not a great one.

Hear Jared Cook will be next to join the Dream Team in Miami

[GSC]

Anyway, you see the difference between a GM in control of his roster in Ozzie, and one who's on the verge on being canned in Ireland

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet
Source: #Bears and reps for #Saints LT Jermon Bushrod are finishing up a long-term deal. #JayCutlersmiles

Meh

Jeff Darlington ‏@JeffDarlington
First swing and a miss for Dolphins today: Jared Cook heading to the Rams. Tight end remains a priority for Miami. Nice pickup in St. Louis.

[Derbyblue]

Bushrod is pretty overrated.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Yeah but he is an upgrade on Webb, but then I'd be an upgrade on Webb

[Bull]

Happy to take Bushrod too lol

[BamBam]

Justin Bieber is an upgrade on Webb

[GSC]

Karlos Dansby released.

Bushrod blows. Brees has a great release and pocket presense

[Bull]

Now for Welker !

[GSC]

Pro Football Focus
‏@PFF
Bushrod was always likely to get overpaid having protected an elite QB for a high-octane offense. 44th in Pass Blocking Efficiency in 2012

Good luck Cutler.

[GSC]

Good LB available in Dansby. Overpaid, but still productive.

[BamBam]

Is the Wallace deal done? A lot of analysts on twitter are talking as if it is but can't find confirmation

[BamBam]

Of the numbers ^

[GSC]

5 years, 65m, 30m guaranteed I think

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

ESPN Stats & Info ‏@ESPNStatsInfo
Mike Wallace's reported $30M guaranteed would be the 3rd most in a current WR contract behind L Fitzgerald ($45.0M) & C Johnson ($43.8M)

5 years, $65 million in all as GSC says

[GSC]

And Harvin is going to top that contract I suspect.

[GSC]

Welker and NE are done talking and he'll explore the market

[GSC]

Albert Breer ‏@AlbertBreer
Jermon Bushrod deal's in Chicago: $35.965M over five years, $17.715M guaranteed.

And I think we have a winner for worst deal of the day

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Inevitable really. He wants long term guaranteed money, Pats aren't gonna give him that.

[Bull]

Bit too much that for Bushrod lol

[GSC]

7m is a fairer reflection of his value than 7m per

[GSC]

Ravens get one back, Chris Canty

[GSC]

Greg Jennings might decide to spurn the Vikes and stay in GB

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Luke Jones ‏@BaltimoreLuke
Paul Kruger and Dannell Ellerbe pulled in contracts worth a combined $75 million. They've also made a combined 21 NFL starts. #Ravens

[GSC]

Darelle Revis has heard nothing from the Jets about a trade.

[Derbyblue]

@ProFootballTalk
Harvin numbers coming. Will post full details. $67 million over six years. $14.5 million fully guaranteed. $11 million more for injury.

[cherriesfna]

Argggggggg!!!!!!!!!!

[mikeygnfl]

Anthony Fasano has reached a four year deal with the Chiefs.

[mikeygnfl]

Darelle Revis could be joining Dashon Golson in Tampa Bay.

[cherriesfna]

JEFF REINEBOLD THINKS IM A NINERS FAN!!!

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

OAKLAND RAIDERS ‏@RAIDERS
The Raiders have released WR Darrius Heyward-Bey, DB Michael Huff and DE David Tollefson; and re-signed DB Phillip Adams.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Huff would be a good pickup for most teams imo

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Brent Grimes going back to Atlanta, huge for them

[cherriesfna]

fancing miami for the post season next season

[cherriesfna]

Isaac Sopoaga agreed to terms with the Eagles on a 3-year deal worth close to $12 million with about $5 mil guaranteed

[Colan (niner)]

Abraham close to signing for Seahawks.

Woodson visiting niners tomorrow

[cherriesfna]

Abraham close to signing for Seahawks.

Woodson visiting niners tomorrow

i kno we have our slight differences on behalf on some things in the west.

but it is really shaping up this year to be a dominat divison

[Colan (niner)]

Jean-Francois to Eagles likely too.

Woodson would be nice mentor if we draft a player to replace him. 49ers are one of those teams that when players are long retired, it will look good to say they wore the famous red and gold so hopefully he doesn't want big deal

[cherriesfna]

Numbers on the deal for Philip Wheeler and #Dolphins: 5 years, $26M with $13M fully guaranteed. #ATM #FreeAgency

also chung to eagles

[BamBam]

I say this every off season, but god I would love to have Adam Schefter's job

[Derbyblue]

OAKLAND RAIDERS ‏@RAIDERS
The Raiders have released WR Darrius Heyward-Bey, DB Michael Huff and DE David Tollefson; and re-signed DB Phillip Adams.

Getting rid of the bad contracts this year to give them more cap space in the future, have to wonder how long Palmer has left...

[cherriesfna]

so welkers testing free angency

[Pr4wn]

Apparently Grimes hasn't signed...

[Colan (niner)]

I'd like Heyward-Bey to replace Ginn

[cherriesfna]

I'd like Heyward-Bey to replace Ginn

heyward bay aint a returner tho. whod the niners havereturning kicks?

Unless there giving Lamichial James full time KO return, but id rather keep him for the run game behing gore

[Derbyblue]

@RapSheet

#Raiders DT Desmond Bryant is going to sign with Cleveland. Best DT on the market.
