Oh shit yes. Called it and couldn't be happier!

Fred rushes for 1K. Book it.

Gaffney is likley to land in Denver. Fuck. This guy is supremely underrated for a 2nd tier WR.

Like Maroney was suppose to do religiously each year?

Taylor's last shot at a SB is now, Maroney can't stay healthy early in his career. (Taylor's missed only 10 games since 02, so he's healthier than what most believe)

However, Taylor had those issues early in his career and still turned into a 10K back that's a longshot at best HOF'er.


The verdict is still out on Maroney, but I bet you see more rushes out of the NE offence until Brady shows on field that he's 100%, and I bet a good chunk of those rushes come from Taylor.

yeah, I have no doubt the chance at a SB is why Taylor went to NE. I've been very disappointed in Maroney though since his rookie year (even though I'm a rival fan).

Bart Scott Signs with Jets

5 years - 40 million.

Not a real shocker, swinging Rex Ryan's nuts over to the Jets.

P.S. That's some serious over paying for him. Scott has played well, but his only big play that comes to people's minds is that sack a few years ago on Roethlisberger.

Bart Scott is signing with the Jets??


ARRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!!issed:

Come on Tennessee, make a move.

Buckhalter and Arrington look to sign with the Broncos.

also looks like the Falcons are "Poised to sign TE L.J. Smith."

 

[Bmore]

Chris Baker signs with New England.

 

[Point Blank]

Falcons are trying to get LJ Smith.

Buckhalter and Arrington look to sign with the Broncos.

I'm not really impressed with either of these guys, especially not Arrington. Hopefully they came cheap.

The Broncos are hosting Jabar Gafney (WR New England) and Ronald Fields (DT San Francisco) today. They are also rumored as a destination for Ray Lewis. Ronald Bartell will also visit the Broncos after his visit with the Saints is finished.

From rotoworld:

Two sources tell FOXSports' Alex Marvez that T.J. Houshmandzadeh is making a free agent visit to Seattle on Friday.

It's the first visit scheduled for Housh since free agency opened at 12AM. Houshmandzadeh offers durability -- something Seattle is desperate for at wideout -- and a skill set suited for OC Greg Knapp's West Coast offense.

Fred Taylor’s run into the sunset took him straight to New England.

After visiting Buffalo and New England this week, Taylor decided to sign with the Patriots.

The agreement has been reached, Taylor is headed back to New England. After playing his first 11 NFL seasons with Jacksonville, he now is expected to finish his career as a Patriot.

Fuck the Redskins. This contract is going to fuck us big-time when it comes to re-sign Ware.

And I love Canty, but he isn't worth the money he wants.

 

[Aso]

The Redskins release CB Shawn Springs.

The Texans have completed the trade with the Vikings. Sage Rosenfels for a 4th round pick. The Vikings have signed Rosenfels to a 2 year contract.
