The Regime Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 It's probably better to just make one offseason thread instead of posting a new topic everytime. A couple big name free agents out there this season should make this offseason a fun one to follow. A couple big name players were released today, Giants released Antonio Pierce and Dolphins released Joey Porter. I have a strong feeling that Karlos Dansby might end up with the Giants. I wanna see the Niners sign Porter, they lack a rusher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren2ThaG Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Bengals sign Matt Jones to one-year contract------------Bengals signed WR Matt Jones to a one-year contract.The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that the deal is worth roughly $700K. Jones, 27 in April, is a good upside signing with minimal risk at this price. While he isn't even a lock to make the team, the Bengals may have plucked their 2010 starting flanker off the February waiver wire. Laveranues Coles becomes a serious candidate for release. Andre Caldwell will likely remain in the slot, while Jones and Jerome Simpson battle for snaps outside. The move won't preclude Cincinnati from using another pick on a wideout, though.

ChosenOne Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 The Bengals have a tendancy to go after player that have had off the feild issues. Tank JohnsonCedric BensonChris Henery (they cut him then signed him back) Those are the one I can think of right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Westbrook '100 percent sure' he won't retire Brian Westbrook says he's "100 percent sure" he won't retire before this year's OTAs "unless something crazy happens." "My goal is to get back out there and play football again," said Westbrook. "That's what I'm gonna train this offseason to do." Westbrook acknowledges that getting "younger and cheaper" is beneficial to the Eagles, and playing for another team is "part of the business." Due $7.25M, he'd have to take a major paycut to play for Philly. Unlike LaDainian Tomlinson and Clinton Portis, Westbrook can still be an offensive asset as he ages. The caveat is that there's perhaps no bigger health risk in the league. LINK I am sure all Eagle fans are happy to hear that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly3rs18 Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 id like to see the eagles try to get a veteran LB like pierce. bradley is coming off of a major knee injury, it could really take some pressure off of him if they had a veteran guy to come in for some plays. they tried to do that with trotter, but trotter is too old. id also love to see julius peppers or someone similar in philly. we already have trent cole on one side, and if we could get a legit threat on the other side then it would make cole so much better (if thats possible) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRT Spidey Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 i would love Pierce or Porter..preferably Porter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nomar Fachix Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Any team in the league would love Pierce, I guarantee it... he is extremely cerebral, he is a warrior, and he will help any team from a coaching standpoint as well. Y'all are lucky if he signs with you. He has immense knowledge on the defensive end... I wouldn't be surprised to see him coaching up a defense inside of five years from now. That said, the Giants defense needs someone to make plays. Dansby would be tremendous, though I see Rolondo being nearly the same player in a few seasons as Dansby is now. Just don't like taking the chance that he falls to #15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Nomar Fachix Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 I think it's a great contract. Janikowski and Lechler are two of the best in the league and are great at what they do. Janikowski was 15-18 from 40-61 yards... that is crazy good. The contract they need to look at is Tommy Kelly's... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChosenOne Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Report: Chargers shopping Cromartie for RB ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports the Chargers are "exploring possible trade scenarios" that involve trading CB Antonio Cromartie for a running back.Despite being a four-year starter, Cromartie has fallen out of favor with the Bolts. GM A.J. Smith will have a hard time getting full value for him after his half-hearted attempt at tackling in the playoff loss to the Jets. There were persistent rumors of a Cromartie-for-Tashard Choice deal a week ago, but the Cowboys aren't interested. Mort mentions the Packers as a team looking for corner help, though they'd have to deal a draft pick instead of a player. ESPN.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other teams around the league are going to be [expletive]ed when they have to present similar contracts.Yeah you say that and the difference in the superbowl was the Saints kicker hitting his field goals and Stover missing his. Tell a team like the Cowboys or Redskins that a kicker ain't worth 4 mil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nomar Fachix Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 He is basically the only guy putting points on the board, and often times not from closer than 50 yards. His only misses this year were from 45, 57, 66. When you have a kicker who was as good as he was last year and is the only person on the team capable of putting points on the board, you lock him up. Scoff at Tommy Kelly and Jamarcus Russell's contracts, but Sea Bass' was a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Regime Posted February 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 More rumors about a possible Asomugha to Jets trade. :o ESPN - Raiders cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha started a lot of controversy when he suggested that he wanted to play alongside Darrelle Revis in New York earlier this offseason. He later clarified that he was just joking, but the thought has lingered. NFL Insider Adam Schefter is reporting that the Raiders are looking to swing a trade this offseason, and Asomugha is among those that the team is open to trading.
