Titans sign TE Anthony Fasano.

Expect Craig Stevens to be cut, way too much money for a guy who can only block and has caught 2 passes in about 3 years

nick fairley to the Rams.

Seems odd unless theyre releasing someone

mike wallace released

That was expected to be fair, could be a cheap deal for someone.

I get the Saints are going for the whole rebuild thing. but Stills is only 22, surely he is exactly the type of player they would have wanted to keep around. Drew Brees gonna be píssed

Double C

If you're giving him a nickname its RunDMC surely!

As a Cowboys fan, I'm underwhelmed by this. Big time. But he might be able to put up good numbers behind the o line. I still expect them to draft an RB though.

It's a 2 yea $5 million deal but only 200k guaranteed so it is a shot to nothing.

Thats his official nickname Double C, but in order for McFadden to have actually earned it, he would have needed to actually be on the pitch for an appreciable length of time!!! To be fair he was actually hampered by an awful O-Line and no receiving corps. But he struggled to remain healthy whilst in Oakland. I wish him better luck with Dallas.

Fins are sending a 3rd round pick and Ellerbe to the Saints for Stills. Stills, Landry and Cameron are a nice trio to have on offense

Partly his own doing tbh. He wanted one of the biggest contracts in NFL history, he got it. Now he has to live with the consequences. Don't think theres a player in the league who's worth the 25 million cap he's eating up.

would the pats have given him that contract though? i guess they would have if brady said he was going to walk but letting revis go is just one of many examples of them sticking to there cap guns

Phoenix Park

Stills looks a cracking pick up by the Dolphins. Great value, he's got loads of potential. I think he'll do very well there.

I really liked what I saw out of Tannehill last year too. It'll be interesting to see how Dolphins progress this season.

The Rams signed Nick Fairley to a 1 year $5 million deal. 31 other teams need to hang their heads in shame.

Surprised Lions wouldn't at least match that when their losing Suh as well.

With all these free agency moves it's almost guaranteed that I'll be watching one of the first weeks going "when the hell did he join them?". :pac:

Seems to be so yes, amazed the Lions didn't match it. It's a great way to get the best from guys with motivation problems like Fairley. Their DT rotation is Brockers, Donald & Fairley. It is a terrifyingly good rotation.

You can take Matt Elam from Baltimore too, no charge!

How not to negotiate in Free Agency.

Terence Knighton demanded $8million a year from the Broncos over four years. The Broncos didn't make an offer.

The Raiders offer Knighton $5-$6million a year over three years. Knighton rejects the offer and accuses JDR of low-balling him.

Knighton piles on the weight while he waits for the offers to roll in.

Knighton signs a $4million, one year deal with the Redskins. The deal is laced with incentives - $500k in off-season conditioning, $500K in game bonuses, $450k in reaching weight targets.

After expecting a multi-year deal worth $8 million a year and rejecting $6million he ends up with a one year deal worth a little over $2million. I won't be surprised if Knighton went one and done and next year was selling insurance.

ya its hard to believe we still would have missed the playoffs with djax but i had less love for him because he actually took years and games off for us i dont think shady did

Reggie Bush to the 49ers. Was hoping the Pats would do a deal with him.

Just came on to post this. 49ers proved incapable of using Lamichael James, I hope Bush will work out, should be possible to get him going with a little bit of change of pace from Hyde.

Hopefully we see a return to the screen game, maybe involve him off read option plays or something.

Does anyone know if he is any good in pass protection? That was a huge benefit of Gore being back there.

Paully D

Kendrick Lewis signing for the Ravens. I paid no attention to him last season in Houston. How did he play? Surely he can't possible be any worse than Darian Stewart or Matt Elam anyway! Lewis and Will Hill seems a lot more promising than aforementioned.

Lions pulled out of negotiations days ago. At some point during talks they just gave up & let him test the market. That's why they didn't try to match any offers.

They must still be concerned with his weight & injury issues that continue to persist.
