Albert Haynesworth signs with the Redskins for 8.7 Billion dollars.

Skins back in the money game after a year off...What up with that Zep?

Would have loved him on the Rams.

Dolphins resign:

Vernon Carey
Channing Crowder
Yeremiah Bell

Jason Brown who the Dolphins wanted to replace Samson Satele, signed with the Rams. Great pickup for St. Louis

Broncos sign the following:

RB Correll Buckhalter (Eagles)
RB JJ Arrington (Cardinals)
WR Jabar Gaffney (Patriots)
S Brian Dawkins (Eagles)
S Renaldo Hill (Dolphins)
LB Andra Davis (Browns)
DT Darrell Reid (Colts)
LS Lonie Paxton (Patriots)

WR David Anderson - (Texans) Restricted FA was given a 3 year 4.5 million offer sheet.
- A former standout at CSU and I'm thinking maybe Josh McDaniels sees a little bit of a Wes Welker type in this kid????

LB Ray Lewis scheduled to visit Dove Valley

What, you didn't want to mention the signings of Gabril Wilson and Joe Berger?

Browns trade Kellen Winslow to the Buccaners for draft pics. Can Braylon Edwards be far behind?

Ya...About time the Rams did something positive. I like the fact that he is still just 25 yrs old. So in theory he could anchor the line for a while.

Patriots Trade Matt Cassel and Mike Vrabel to the Chiefs for their 2nd round pick (34th overall).

Cost cutting, but surprising anyway.

I'm curious to see if Brady Quinn gets traded as Mike Florio from profootballtalk.com hinted he could be on Cleveland's trading block. If Winslow cuts out all the BS and just takes care of his business on and off the field he could be the stud player NFL teams dreamed he could be when he was playing at UM.

Hmm, Stacy Andrews off to the Eagles. and $7m per year.

Thank god for that. Fat, gutless bone-idle leadswinger, I'm just glad that the Bengals didn't offer him anything like that. Not that they would, of course, as that might involve Mike Brown having to contemplate opening his wallet.

Did you hear about the Bears big moves?

Yeah me neither

Rodster · Post by **Rodster** » Sat Feb 28, 2009 8:54 pm

It's going to be really weird seeing Brian Dawkins in a Broncos uniform. At 35 he got a pretty good 5 yr deal deal with $7.5 mill in guarantee money but I doubt he'll see it thru to the end.

Wilk5280 · Post by **Wilk5280** » Sat Feb 28, 2009 9:18 pm

He's definitely a stop gap, but not a bad one to have at all. I equate him to about the time we got Lynch. I figure 2 solid years from him at safety while they shore up the rest of the D with younger players / draft picks.

That's what i'm thinking as well as current NFL contracts rarely see the end of the contract deal.

The Denver Broncos may have seriously damaged their relationship with quarterback Jay Cutler.

A source close to the situation confirmed the Broncos were trying to acquire quarterback Matt Cassel from the New England Patriots by dangling Cutler,
their Pro Bowl quarterback.

He's never going to be the stud everyone thought he'd be. He's damaged goods now. Just another Cleveland big name high draft pick bust. Stupid motorcycle accident, injuries, knee surgeries, staph infections, unwillingness to block, throw in a contract holdout and a questionable attitutude which probably isn't going to improve now that he's with Drew Rosenhaus, and all I have to say is "good luck in Tampa Bay, Soldier".

I hate it when the Cowboys and Jerry Jones make smart personnel decisions.

Source: Cowboys cut T.O.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3953647

Okay this one could go either way, quality WR vs cancer in the locker room. Either way Dallas blew their wad the last two years and it is all crumbling down in front of them.

So who wants T.O.?

Rodster · Post by **Rodster** » Thu Mar 05, 2009 6:11 am

Didn't they pay TO a bunch of money recently with a new contract? I kind of laughed when the Sporting News suggested that TO could land in Miami. Yeah that has as much chance happening as the Lions winning the Super Bowl.

I like the Gmen moves.

Canty will be a nice addition. Boley and Bernard are nice pickups too. With Osi coming back, the Giants D should be even better than last year's.

Its hard to believe its almost been 10 yeas since they drafted him...Time flies.

Dont ya love how the years go by faster and faster as you get older and older?

davet010 · Post by **davet010** » Thu Mar 05, 2009 7:01 pm

I started hating that when even the coaches are younger than me...I started watching the NFL when it was people like Tom Landry on the sidelines.

The Sean Avery of Football, a ticking bomb, overrated and overpaid.

NFL.com is reporting that WR Terrell Owens and the Buffalo Bills have agreed to a one year deal.
