Broncos signed RB Willis McGahee to a four-year, $10 million contract.
Different terms than were reported on Friday, but McGahee is nevertheless a Bronco. Set to turn 30 and coming off a season in which his production fell off dramatically, McGahee's best fantasy bet for 2011 is a repeat of his 2010, where he vultured a good amount of goal-line carries from Ray Rice.

So glad the Bengals signed Nate Clements. He's nothing special, but he is a serviceable upgrade over what we currently have. Him and Leon Hall are a decent CB duo.

Good move by the Titans. Suprised this has flown under the radar, Rudd is a great LB. I hope Tulloch will come to Detroit now!!

Ruud was a great LB. Not really anymore, though. I like the guy, but he fell off. He has been a liability the last couple seasons against the run. Not good for a Mike backer. Still very good in coverage though. I hope he finds his form again elsewhere.

Any info on Tulloch? Not really familiar with him...

Tully just tackles...usually when the back is already 4-5 yards downfield. Can't cover or force fumbles, but he's a good leader at least.

Jets signed WR Plaxico Burress to a one-year, $3.01 million contract.
Entering his age-34 season and having spent 18 months in prison, Burress will have to prove he has something left while on a one-year deal. He'll be given every opportunity to win the starting job vacated by Braylon Edwards, thus kicking Jerricho Cotchery to his customary No. 3 gig. While we're skeptical about how effective Plax will be, he couldn't have landed in a much better place for fantasy value. Edwards recorded a respectable 102 targets while running opposite Santonio Holmes last year.

Lions sign Tulloch to a one year 3.5 Million deal.

Our LB core isn't looking so dreadful anymore.

Raiders re-signed FS Michael Huff.

The Cowboys strike out on one of their rumored targets. Huff is coming off a career year, racking up 95 tackles, a career-high four sacks, four QB hurries, three INTs, three forced fumbles, and seven passes defensed while showing well in coverage. We'll see if that highly motivated production will continue now that he's landed his long-term deal.

Eagles signed G Evan Mathis, formerly of the Bengals.

The Eagles aren't done just yet. Mathis is an underrated veteran that has started 22 career games. His signing gives the Eagles depth on the interior and allows them to use Todd Herremans at right tackle if Winston Justice (knee) isn't ready.

Plaxico puts uniform # in contract ($3,017,000). Last guy I remember doing this was Clemens. Signed for $22,000,022 in '06.

Bears agree to terms with DT Amobi Okoye, the 10th overall pick in 2007 draft, sources tell me. One-year deal.

[Kuzzy Powers]

Oh wow, that has potential to turn out good. He should be able to learn under Marienlli. Like the move.

Rich get richer: Former Packers DT Cullen Jenkins reached agreement with the Eagles on a five year, $25 million deal.


WOW

Jesus their pass rush is going to be close to unstoppable. Their secondary is just as good, but the key is going to be their linebackers. Unless they do something to add to that position, its going to be exploited by other teams. Although part of me thinks that, even with that glaring weakness, it might not matter with the rest of the talent here.

[Kuzzy Powers]

Im trying to figure out why noone was willing to give Jenk more.. the Bears included. Seems like a real steal for the Eagles.

[Mogriffjr]

Oh wow, that has potential to turn out good. He should be able to learn under Marienlli. Like the move.

he's more of a 4-3 type DT...though under Rod, I'm sure he can get more of out his talent then whoever was runnin that shyt fest in Houston.
