They're building a nice little squad over there.

I see a lot of stories saying Cleveland is possibly going to package all of these high draft picks to go get Jimmy G. 

 

I believe that that would be a STUPID move! You keep those picks and build a young core of high impact players. I don't care how well Gorapolo played for 4 or 5 games, he's not worth a teams future when they finally are making a few good moves.

I agree 100% but this is the Browns so I wouldn't put it past them

Exactly. Imagine what 3 first round and 4 2nd round picks in 2 years does for any team. Gorapolo is not worth that. Maybe one or two players in the league are, but not a guy that played 5 games

Funny - I just read the article on how Peppers will be great mentor to him and that it was a part of reasoning behind the 1 year deal for Peppers.

I believe there is a cardinal rule that says if Belichick calls you about wanting a player, you should keep that guy. Now if Belichick calls and says a player is available, hang up the phone right away. 

[52520Andrew]

Welp, Cooks is going to the Pats too, and they keep Butler, it really isn't fair lol

Little historical happening with Carolina again. When they drafted Dwayne Jarrett, Keyshawn Johnson was on tv gloating how he's going to mentor Jarrett.....the panthers released Keyshawn just a couple days later.....Jarrett never did much of anything in the league

They also got CB Prince Amukamara on a 1 year $7M deal as well. Keep filling your corner needs the rest of the NFL, all your doing is making Ozzie smile every day.

Tampa Bay making some moves, signing away 2 NFC East free agents. One being DE/DT Chris Baker who leaves the turmoil of Washington behind for the summer days of Tampa. The Bucs followed that with the signing of former Cowboys S JJ Wilcox.

Vikings have signed themselves a new pair of Offensive Tackles. The Vikings have signed OT Riley Reiff to replace Matt Kalil at a 5 year $58.75M contract. OT Mike Remmers has also been signed with a 5 year $30M contract with $10M guaranteed.

These tackles have made themselves some money in FA, wonder how long most of them will last on their teams with these deals

Yeah, I'm going to take a guess at not many will see the entire length of the contract. I look at the Vikings in particular and while I like the Riley Reiff signing. He is an upgrade at LT over Kalil, but I question the overpaying of Mike Remmers. Remmers was one of the reasons why the Panthers offensive line got humilated in the Super Bowl by Denver. I'm just amazed that Dallas has given the 31 other teams a blue print on how to build your offensive line through the draft, and you have teams overpaying Offensive Tackles.

Don't forget Kalil himself getting 55 mil over 5 years from the Panthers

And they are moving Mike Oher to the right side to accommodate him. Cam's taking anti depressants already.

Or should I bring up Okung getting 53 mil over 4 years and 25 mil guaranteed after being turned down an option that would give him 20 mil guaranteed from Denver? Russell Okung is now the highest paid OT in the NFL on a per year basis. Stanley's agent is already smiling at these deals lol
