NFL: Off Season Action

[Japher]

Sorry if there is already a thread about this...


I just need to vent. Donahue and his boneheads are destroying/dismantling the Niners!

Hearst, Deese, Stone, Moran, Garcia, and soon to be added to the list Streets and Owens… All gone. Not to mention Jim Mora Jr.!

I sure hope they know what they are doing, though I seriously doubt it.

What stupid moves, or good moves, has your team done in the off season thus far, and who do you want from the draft?

[Zopperoni]

The Patriots extended the contract of the legendary Russ Hochstein. This is good, since Damien Woody might leave.

The Patriots also have two selections in both the first and second round of this year's draft. Quite a luxury.


On the Niners, yea, Erickson is doomed. The Redskins may be left with one draft pick this year if the deals with the Broncos and the Jaguars are made.

They are in cap Hell. I mean, the Owens mis-filing hurt the 9ers worse than Owens. They are looking to trade him, but will still have to take quite a hit (I don't think anyone will just trade him for draft picks).

Because of that, Garcia makes too much. They'll go with Rattay and maybe draft Rivers in the draft and make him the QB of the future.

Heart was going anyway, Barlow was going to take over this year.

[Zopperoni]

The Dolphins cut Brian Griese and traded a 2005-second-round-pick to the Eagles for A.J. Feeley; interesting...

Barlow is now better than Hearst, and Garcia was a beat up old man.
Things are looking up, Japher.

ESPN is reporting that RB Thomas Jones will sign with Chicago for four years, $10 million, with a $3.5 million signing bonus. Looks like the A-Train's time is running out. (I'm praying to god that Bruce Allen is angling to get a top running back, because now with Jones out of the picture, we need some help back there big-time.)

Naw... A-Train is like a cockroach.. he never dies . Jones has been a dissapointment since he's been in the league. No reason he'd be better in Chicago.

Dallas needs a RB, badly.
Hard to tell if Quincy Carter is as crappy as he looks at times. I imagine he is.

[reismark]

M*$^$#*&%$&%# S#*%!!!

Jevon Kearse signs with the Philadelphia Eagles for six years.

Oh well. Things could be worse. He could be a Ram.

If they get a WR, they'll be deadly!

Btw, all the teams that need a RB needent fear. The draft is LOADED with RB. The only position with more talent is WR.

[SlowwHand]

Beau coup WR's, you're right.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Especially with Fitzgerland and Mike Williams able to come out.

[reismark]

ESPN reports Kearse's deal is for eight years, $66 million, with a $16 million signing bonus and roster bonuses of $2 million the first two years.

****. I HATE the Eagles.

And now the TO rumors are starting to fly...

WTF?

Dolphins desparately need a quarterback and for that matter a backup. Fiedler is shi-ite and at best is a second stringer. Griese is a batter2nd string potential than Fiedler.

Dan, Fire Wanstad already!!

the niners are in no need of a drafted qb of the future. both rattay and dorsey could fill that role. so entering a third pick into that lottery is senseless. just sign a decent third string.

the niners basically dumped all their age and high salaries(and ahmed plummer). which I disagree w/. theoretically they could still be a very good team. realistically one of the cogs will likely underperform.

also I hate erickson so much.

keeping owens is a good idea IMO. aty 6 mill a year he's easily worth it.
