Free Agency begins today, sort of.

[Coogs]

Teams can work out deals starting today, but deals can't be signed until Thursday at 4:00 PM Eastern Time. Teams also have to be under the top 51 Cap number at that same time Thursday.

[Coogs]

One of the things I heard last night on NFL radio was that the Bears have an interest in Mike Glennon from the Buccs. If that is the case, it increases the odds of a QB making it to #27.

[ptlyon]

Wake up Romo, John is on the phone

[Red Dawg]

Peterson and Brandon will sell out and be Pats in a few days.

Nothing will be better for football than Brady quitting or getting injured. So sick of the same shit every year.

[Red Dawg]

One of the things I heard last night on NFL radio was that the Bears have an interest in Mike Glennon from the Buccs. If that is the case, it increases the odds of a QB making it to #27.

So? We won't take one. My opinion is CB or ILB.

[Mile High Mania]

Wake up Romo, John is on the phone

Cowboys have to decide if they are going to cut him before or after June 1.

If I read it correctly, they free up $5M and take a $19M dead hit in 2017 by cutting him prior to June 1. After June 1, they can split the dead hit and have more cap room.

So, Jerry has a big call to make here... the shrewd business man says he waits until after June 1, but if he wants to do right by Tony, he'll do it earlier.

And, what do you think Jerry will do?

[oldman]

Does any know where we stand with our own RFAs?

[Bowser]

Jerruh is all about Jerruh. If Romo had won him a title or two, things might shake out a bit differently.

[ChiefGator]

Yep.. my only hope is too see lots of QB movement before the draft, so we have a pick of a couple at #27.

[BossChief]

I've heard all sides of the Romo deal.

1) JJ wants Romo to be involved with the Cowboys after retirement, so that makes me believe he will grant his release soon so his friend can go elsewhere and have a wide open market bidding for his services.

2) keeping him on the roster till June 1st or designating him a June 1st cut keeps his full salary on the books till June 2nd...limiting how much Dallas can do to improve their roster. I don't see how that helps anyone. By that time FA is over as well as the draft and JJ would be releasing Romo when teams have already decided the direction they are going at QB. It would also hurt Romo because his options would be limited (therefore limiting his earning potential) and it would force him to miss OTAs and stuff with his new team.

3) trading or cutting him would excellerate the dead money right away...clearing 5m in cap space and adding compensation in terms of a pick.

If I'm Jerry Jones, I have a huge decision to make...if I'm in his shoes, I'd probably cut him in the next couple days if I can't get anything for him in trade.

[Rooster]

One of the things I heard last night on NFL radio was that the Bears have an interest in Mike Glennon from the Buccs. If that is the case, it increases the odds of a QB making it to #27.

Didn't the Bears already have Glennon at one time or am I getting my QBs mixed up?

[Mile High Mania]

Well, a trade is pure fantasy at this point.

I would imagine that Jerry will take the extra $10M in cap space by spreading the $19M over two years over a possible R3-R4 pick next year.

Honestly, I think too much is made about their friendship. You're talking about big $ and Jerry wants a ring because it's been a long time and you have a generation of "America's Team" kids that have grown up and witnessed the Cowboys go 2-8 in the playoffs since 1998.

Kids have been born and are graduating high school not knowing the 'America's Team' that their parents talk about. It's damn near ancient history, while teams like the Steelers and Packers continue to be consistent. I mention those two specifically because you can go back decades, esp PIT.

In Jerry's first 7 seasons, the Cowboys won 3 titles and were 68 and 44 overall.
In Jerry's last 21 seasons, the Cowboys won 0 titles and were 175 and 161 overall.

That's a lot of seasons for Dallas to be without hardware.

[Sandy Vagina]

Does any know where we stand with our own RFAs?

Only real focus needs to be on retaining Cairo Santos.. and maybe Sorenson.. but no.. have not read anything about them yet.

[loochy]

I just heard on the radio:

Adrian Peterson to the Pats on a team friendly deal


LMAO and the rich get richer

[pugsnotdrugs19]

One of the things I heard last night on NFL radio was that the Bears have an interest in Mike Glennon from the Buccs. If that is the case, it increases the odds of a QB making it to #27.

Yep, and there's more QBs who could fill such voids between now and the draft. Garopolo, Foles, etc.

If it's Mahomes that the Chiefs want, he might make it to 27. Watson I doubt though. I'd like to see them be able to sit at 27 and then trade up in the 2nd or 3rd round to get a day one impact player or two.

[Mr. Laz]

Only real focus needs to be on retaining Cairo Santos.. and maybe Sorenson.. but no.. have not read anything about them yet.
Too many quality DBs in the Draft to keep Sorenson.

probably should replace Gaines too

Have to wonder how Berry got so much money in year with such a good draft.


Maybe one of the best Secondary drafts in a decade.

[RunKC]

I would be interested in Malcolm Smith. He could be a cheap FA who could upgrade our ILB corps.

[The Franchise]

I just heard on the radio:

Adrian Peterson to the Pats on a team friendly deal

Pretty sure it's just a rumor at this point. But fuck....why wouldn't he take way less money to go there? He knows he has a damn good chance at ending it all with a ring.

[Red Dawg]

Pretty sure it's just a rumor at this point. But ****....why wouldn't he take way less money to go there? He knows he has a damn good chance at ending it all with a ring.

Oh, it will happen and Marshall will sign there as well. Both are old and will give them a year for peanuts to chase a ring will a 40 year old Brady. Fucking sucks but that's what every old player does.

[Quesadilla Joe]

The Chargers just cut Brandon Flowers, Stevie Johnson, and Fluker.

[Bowser]

The Chargers just cut Brandon Flowers, Stevie Johnson, and Fluker.

Flowers is about the only one of the three I would consider, and at this point I'd consider him a nickel safety over being a starting corner.

[BossChief]

That's a lot of seasons for Dallas to be without hardware.

Even if Dallas cuts Romo tomorrow and designates him a June 1st cut to spread the cap hit, his FULL salary stays on their books until June 2nd.

So, it doesn't REALLY open up that cap space till it's too late anyway.

[Titty Meat]

I would be interested in Malcolm Smith. He could be a cheap FA who could upgrade our ILB corps.

He's terrible

[Kiimo]

No interest in Stevie Johnson?

[pugsnotdrugs19]

He's terrible

Yep. Smith has name value because of that SB, but otherwise has been a JAG and wouldn't be better than Ramik Wilson was.

[Sandy Vagina]

Too many quality DBs in the Draft to keep Sorenson.

Have to wonder how Berry got so much money in year with such a good draft.


Maybe one of the best Secondary drafts in a decade.

No real problem letting Sorenson go.

Give Gaines this last year to see what he's got. If it's good, then KC can get a good/decent comp pick afterwards. He's still pretty good, if ever healthy.

( I'm still good with us drafting a rd 1-5 corner, that said )

Fans would have been devastated to lose Berry. The franchise needs that face on the defense with the soon departures of Hali and DJ.. and Houston being typically M.I.A. .. and though not worth that money... Berry is very good.

[Bowser]

No interest in Stevie Johnson?

Nope, especially after blowing his knee yet again.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

As loaded as this draft is defensively, any FA activity should be directed to the offense.

Find your defensive depth and talent in the draft where it can be had in the mid to late rounds on the cheap.

[Kiimo]

Nope, especially after blowing his knee yet again.

It was his meniscus, totally recoverable.

Flowers, on the other hand, has a a permanently scrambled brain from concussions.

[beach tribe]

Yep.. my only hope is too see lots of QB movement before the draft, so we have a pick of a couple at #27.

Unfortunately, we aren't going to be picking a QB out of this crop I don't think.

Hate to say it but.....Next year.

[MotherfuckerJones]

Just give me Hightower.

With our QB situation offense will not get us anything but a few thrills. Despite 12 wins our defense was far from dominating. It's our best shot in the near future to make it better to have a shot at a title. Our run defense sucks. Hali is old. DJ is old. Poe is history and we need another corner opposite Peters. OL and defense is what our direction should be in the draft.

[RunKC]

Chris Ballard made a really interesting comment at the combine. "People go crazy in March during free agency, but I think from September to November is the best time to get players."

That's when we signed Terrance Mitchell, who looks as good as most FA's being available this month.

Chiefs don't need to do much of anything this month. Terrance Mitchell acquisition, getting Houston/Howard/Bailey back and having 10 picks in the draft seems lie enough for us to get even better next year.

[In58men]

From Walterfootball ROFL

DeSean Jackson played under Andy Reid, so he would join his former coach again, providing more weapons for Alex Smith. Jeremy Maclin and Tyreek Hill are nice targets to have, but the Chiefs could stand to add another receiver, especially with Maclin becoming too expensive in the near future.

[Amnorix]

Belichek really wants to be able to run a double TE set that they can run or pass out of.


Yes. And he wants to fill as many holes on the roster BEFORE the draft. He hates going into the draft being forced to pick at certain positions because of overwhelming need. Now with Gronk, Allen and Lengel (who they tendered), we at least have three guys on the roster.

TE position is thin in FA, and Bennett is likely to get overpaid so he's gone, so Pats trade for one.

With Gronk's health, and the depth at TE in the draft this year, I'd like to see a pick used on a TE anyway...

I agree. Bill is the most over blown HC of all time in any sport. He had 5 straight losing seasons in Cleveland and his first year in NE with Bledsoe they had a losing season as well. In 01 they started 0-2 before Bledsoe got injured.

Brady was just dumb fugging luck in the 6th round. Bledsoe injury was just Bill getting lucky. The tuck rule was Bill getting lucky. Video tape, play sheet and play book stealing did enough in the early years when Brady was ordinary to keep the game close so they could win with FG's.

Without Brady he will go down in flames. Players won't bend over to come there taking less money and nobody will stay around for less money.

I know facts *rarely* bother you, but Belichick's actually went 11-5 his second-to-last year in Cleveland, went to the playoffs, and beat Bill Parcells' Patriots team. As such, he is the last Cleveland Browns head coach to win a playoff game. His last season went to hell when Modell announced he was moving after like the third game of the season.


Brady was just dumb fugging luck in the 6th round.

Well, yes, to a very large degree. Montana in the third round was also dumb fugging luck.

Bledsoe injury was just Bill getting lucky. The tuck rule was Bill getting lucky. Video tape, play sheet and play book stealing did enough in the early years when Brady was ordinary to keep the game close so they could win with FG's.

Again, I know facts don't bother you at all.


Without Brady he will go down in flames. Players won't bend over to come there taking less money and nobody will stay around for less money.

Belichick still did MORE with Brady than Shula ever achieved with Marino, or Walsh with Montana, or, well, any head coach in the Super Bowl era has ever done with anyone. And the Patriots over the last 16 years have smashed every record for winning there is, all in an era where it is much harder to keep your good players.

But yeah, dude sux. Keep on rocking on! :rockon:


Want to tell us again how White didn't get into the end zone and win the SB? ROFL

[Amnorix]

Yeah having an elite defense every year after constantly shuffling the roster. I'm sure other coaches have done that.


Belichick has been a coach on one of the two Super Bowl teams nearly 20% of the time since the advent of the Super Bowl. If you ignore the first eight Super Bowls, which was before he was even in the league, the percentage climbs to close to 25%.

So for over 40 years, if Belichick is a coach on your team, you've got a 25% of going to the Super Bowl. That is fucking insane.

But hey, it's all just Brady... :rolleyes:

It's happened several times in Dorsey's short time here. One year someone jumped ahead of us for the cornerbacks. Another Year they allegedly jumped ahead of us for a QB. Didn't they jump ahead of us for a group of WRs one year so we took Dee Ford instead?

So 2 or 3 out of the 4 years that Dorsey's been here there are rumors that someone jumped in front of us. LMAO

the team that traded in front of us in 2014 is now actively trying to trade that player off their team.

Colts fan here.

Not a huge fan of this deal but I can see why Ballard did it. Allen obviously isn't in his plans and is somewhat overpaid, so get something out of him instead of just releasing in preseason.

They didn't get a whole lot, though. Pats basically just dropped about 50 spots to get him.

If they get 2012 DA, they'll be happy. He's been injury prone and inconsistent ever since. Very good run blocker, very physical, but not very fast and inconsistent hands.

[MotherfuckerJones]

Biggest hypocritical sport of any. The combine is where they all go to tamper. It's fucking silly. Make free agency start at the combine. Do a giant show for the combine and free agency. The fans would eat it up. That simple.

[Chief Northman]

No KC rumors at all. Won't be doing much but I'm praying they surprise us with Brandon Williams or Hightower.

Nabbing Brown as an ILB would be a good fit. Played in Ryan's system so he arguably could step right in here. I bet Hightower stays in NE. Cost prohibitive and not really a scheme fit.

If Poe leaves, I think the Chiefs add a cheaper vet like Logan or another run-stuffer type. They will let Bailey, Howard, Jones and Nunez-Roches roll.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

With 70 players under contract this year, the Chiefs really don't need to sign anyone. They would have 80 if they use all of their picks, though I suspect a trade up at some point to bring that down to 8 or 9.

The draft is said to be extremely deep. We can fill our depth and holes with it on cheap 4-yr contracts.

We might sign one or two FAs, but they won't happen for probably a few days and they might even wait until closer to Summer.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Tampering will not end until the league starts taking away 2nd or even 1st round picks over it. If they threaten to do that, I doubt you'd hear about it again.

[RealSNR]

Is it a huge fucking pipe dream to think that Trubisky won't go until the teens?

If that's the case, I would absolutely trade picks to move up. A couple this year, a couple next year if that's the price. We'll have some comp picks next year, too, though maybe not as many.

[MotherfuckerJones]

First time in my life where I'm ok with any of the main 4 top QBs

[penbrook]

Fuck it. I'll go ahead and get my hopes up.

Cleveland (supposedly likes Jeanine Garafalo)

San Fran (supposedly is trading for Cousins?)

NY Jets (unlikely circumstance they pick up Cutler after Chicago jettisons him?)

Buffalo (Tyrod Taylor is sticking around)

If all that stuff actually happens, we only have two enemies to worry about: the Chargers at 7 (would they look to put a timetable on Rivers' exit right now?) and the Saints at 11.

The Saints are our biggest hurdle to cross after all those other hurdles have fallen into place.

After that, we'd also need to cut a deal with Philly, Indy, and Baltimore to move ahead of Washington.

No way around it. KC will HAVE to trade up. They got the ammo. I don't want to see Cousins traded to SF for WAS for the number 2 pick because they'll get a QB there likely

[RunKC]

This is the time to do it. Dee Ford's 5th year option is really the only major cost for us next year.

Gaines-nope
Sherman-not paid that much, expendable
Colquitt-extend him, not that much
Foles-nope
Spiller-nope
Fulton-replaceable
Sorenson-replaceable
DAT-nope
Howard-maybe. Not that expensive

It's a deep draft and we have 10 picks, plenty to keep building a mostly set roster. We're getting anther 3rd rd comp for Poe next year, so hell I'd be good with giving up our ordinal 3rd this year and in 2018 if we like a guy that much to want him.

Plus you have Foles and Alex gone clearing up tons of cap room and probably Tamba leaving as well.

Gaines-nope
Sherman-not paid that much, expendable
Colquitt-extend him, not that much
Foles-nope
Spiller-nope
Fulton-replaceable
Sorenson-replaceable
DAT-nope
Howard-maybe. Not that expensive

It's a deep draft and we have 10 picks, plenty to keep building a mostly set roster. We're getting anther 3rd rd comp for Poe next year, so hell I'd be good with giving up our ordinal 3rd this year and in 2018 if we like a guy that much to want him.

Plus you have Foles and Alex gone clearing up tons of cap room and probably Tamba leaving as well.
It makes all the sense in the world. Get your guy, John.

3 seasons before we have to make MP22 the highest paid corner

[TambaBerry]

Also, it's not like we're going to draft ten guys that will stay on the roster. I'd rather go get someone you really want and use some extra picks to get them

[pugsnotdrugs19]

I don't know that they would have to trade up necessarily for their QB depending on who it is, but I'd prefer that they do just to be safe, and to send a clear message that they believe in said QB.

[RealSNR]

Draft Trubisky. Start Alex for a year. MAYBE two. Then cut him loose.

There's where our Peters money will come from, not to mention a ton of other deals that will be out by then-- Tamba, DJ, Bailey, Maclin, etc.

If Trubisky takes the fall in the 1st, GO FUCKING GET HIM.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Think about this. If the Chiefs nail this draft with a QBOTF and other contributors, they could enter next offseason with around $45 million in cap space just by releasing Smith, Hali, and DJ.

The Hali and DJ cuts by next offseason will most likely have to happen. Maybe you keep DJ if he miraculously returns to form. Either way, there's enough cash to keep who you want and also add some pieces to your offense with the QB in place.

2 things:

1) No guarantee we get a 3rd round comp. pick for Poe - the formula is complex and hinges on UFAs leaving versus UFAs signed and comparable dollar amounts.

2) I am convinced that we will see the Chiefs draft a quarterback early in this upcoming draft, and will not be shocked if they repeat that strategy in 2018 with what promises to be an elite quarterback class. I have said in other posts that we get our future back up quarterback this year, but the true starter will be selected next year at the draft....

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Word lately has been that Cleveland might take Trubisky #1. They love him.

Personally, I know he's the 'top guy', but I'm not a huge fan. Would take Mahomes or Watson as I believe their ceilings are higher. I trust that Reid would mold the offense to lead the QB to success no matter who it is though, as he always has.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

If Poe only signs for 1 year as has been rumored as possible, we might not get much of anything in terms of compensation. Certainly not a 3rd, but maybe a 6th or 7th.

[RunKC]

In 2014 the Saints moved from 27 to 20 only giving up their 3rd rd pick. I'm fine with that, in fact I'm fine with trading that 3rd and a 5th/6th to move up to 17 or 18.

ive read three different articles that watson could fall to the chiefs. not for or against. just think it's a stretch he falls that far. free agency aside, no way he lasts that long, but all the qb FA's could cause some to fall. :D

Hope they're not planning on starting him 2017. I love Trubisky as a pro prospect, but I don't know many spread QBs with only 13 games started who would be able to recover from that huge learning curve. I mean, Ryan freakin Tannehill had more games under his belt in college as a QB than Trubisky.

If he's not in the right system with the right team, he could make Jared Goff look like Kurt Warner.

If they want Watson, they will need to trade up once he slides out of the top 12-15. Very possible really.

But for all we know they may want Mahomes most, or maybe Kizer (I hope not). I can't wait for this draft to see where things are headed.

[Nickhead]

yeah, i don't watch college any longer. it's tough enough to keep up with the chiefs/jayhawks for me anymore. i miss the days when i watched enough to predict how good adrian, DJ, and Jamaal would become. and how much bradford was overvalued :D

Yeah the truth is that it really doesn't matter how good of a prospect a QB is, if they aren't put in the right situation, they won't be successful. Andrew Luck should have been in the playoffs each of the last 2 years, but the team put around him made their whole product a mess.

Derek Carr would not be what we have seen so far if not for the respectable job that Oakland has done assembling his OL and WR corp. Mariota has been able to lean on his run game without any good WRs, Prescott the same (though he has Dez).

Now is the perfect time for the Chiefs to strike. They have a young ascending OL that will be together long term. Big time playmakers at WR and TE. They need to add some speed at RB and some depth at WR and TE. All around, it's a great spot for a young QB to step into.

the chiefs are actually in a good position to have a rookie qb should the starter go down. and here is where i make a browns reference. any quarterback in their newest existence would have failed miserably in cleveland. :D

Fuck your team. I hope you guys sign Tony Romo and we kill him the first time we play you.

49ers indicated strongly to Hoyer he's the guy for 17 and no trade for Cousins this year. Words are cheap but they recruited him as starter

I think Andy Reid is a bit like John Fox... they have the ability to fix bad teams, but they can't get them over that final hump or two to win the title. Both have failed the 1 time each made it to the SB.

Few dispute their abilities to build solid teams, but once they get to a certain point... might be time to move on.

I agree. I never wanted Reid in the first place because I never thought he would ever get us to a SB. He had his chance and failed multiple times.

$13 million a year for a 31 year old DL?

Overpay..

As Chris Mortensen has reported the Broncos are indeed still trying to get an agreement with Denver native Calais Campbell. And their feeling is a high intensity pursuit of Campbell is in keeping to John Elway's vow after the past season to try to keep the team's defense at an elite level. And it also shows it is Campbell who just might be the Broncos' top target in free agency.http://www.espn.com/espn/now?nowId=21-0631542727883887193-4

Doesn't look like there's much of a market for Poe. At least not what some of us were anticipating.

There's a report that Charles could be headed to Seattle.

Cowboys G Ron Leary plans to sign with the Denver Broncos assuming no last-minute negotiating snags, per sources.

Broncos to sign G Ronald Leary to a four-year deal worth $35m with $20m gtd, source says. Big money for a guy once lost in the shuffle.

Washington was but they already sign that DT from the Cowboys.

The #Dolphins placed a first round tender on LB Kiko Alonso, who they are trying to sign to a long-term extension.

[MotherfuckerJones]

KC won't finish higher than 3rd this season. Denver will be better and Oakland will take the next step. Thanks Reid for keeping this shit bag cocksucking pansy QB

Stephon Gilmore expected to sign with Patriots

In what is becoming a recurring theme in free agency, one of the best cornerbacks on the open market will likely land with the New England Patriots.

Former Bills first-round pick and 2016 Pro Bowler Stephon Gilmore is closing in on a deal with the Patriots, according to NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport. Gilmore, believed by some to be the best free agent cornerback available on the market, is just 26 going on 27. He finished last season with a career-high five interceptions for 135 return yards. Gilmore also broke up 12 passes and added 42 solo tackles.

[ForeverChiefs58]

$4 .25M of dead money with Sean Smith if released. 3/11 roster bonus became fully GTD without an offset on 3/16/16.

[MahiMike]

Word in Jax is the Broncos trying to steal Calais Campbell from Jags.

[MotherfuckerJones]

I can't wait for Smith to shit the bed this season. My hope is we draft our 1st round guy. If we're have a bad 8-8 season, so be it. Get Smith the fuck out and have a higher draft pick next season to add an impact player on either side of the ball.

[ModSocks]

Cuck

[MotherfuckerJones]

Denver gona get Campbell on that defense? KC better go get Hightower.

[MotherfuckerJones]

Not too worried about Denver's OL. It's shitty and will be. Bad OL draft class as well. Good luck with all that. Too bad they'll have the better QB yet again.

[ForeverChiefs58]

@RapSheet
The #Cowboys just lost a player who will make more than $8M … and won’t have to replace a starter on their offensive line. Ridiculous.

[Coochie liquor]

If we bring back foles...we aren't drafting a QB in the first 4 rounds.

This. And I feel that's the deal. They don't like these qb's.

Chandler Jones entered the offseason carrying a $16 .2M calculated market value. It appears the #Cardinals have extended him at a $16 .5M AAV.

[The Franchise]

I'll wait until I crown that Denver defense to be one of the best next year. Losing Wade is going to hurt.

[MotherfuckerJones]

It's the same shit every year. QB next year. It's been 4 goddamn seasons since we got Smith. Draft a fucking guy. Stop pussyfooting around the position. It's going to bite them if they ignore it and Smith goes down and they have Bray behind them.

[Mile High Mania]

I'll wait until I crown that Denver defense to be one of the best next year. Losing Wade is going to hurt.

Maybe.

[MotherfuckerJones]

Maybe.

Miami had some talent on defense and they were awful. I don't get the love affair with Vance Joseph.

[The Franchise]

Maybe.

You guys still have the talent....don't get me wrong. But you have a bunch of hot heads on that team. Wade was good at keeping them in control.
