tazinib1 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Kavell Conner? Indy pipeline continues. I've always liked Conner. I think he can be an every down LB. It's nice depth but we desperately need DB's and OL help. Not liking it so far. This was not a great FA group to begin with but ANY DB is better than what we have now, which is the worst in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HowboutthemCowboys Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) 4:35 p.m. --The Jets have a deal in place with former Lions TE Brandon Pettigrew, who would join Eric Decker in an attempt to catch balls from Geno Smith in 2014.

HowboutthemCowboys Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Still waiting............. Chargers agreed to terms with QB Kellen Clemens, formerly of the Rams, on a two-year contract. With Charlie Whitehurst headed to the Titans on a two-year deal, Clemens will replace Checkdown Charlie as Philip Rivers' backup. Clemens was surprisingly serviceable in nine starts in place of Sam Bradford last season, but was still well short of effective. He's a game-manager who can keep teams in games with a strong running game. Clemens is a major upgrade on Whitehurst, who's one of the league's least-effective backups.

Whitehurst was aweful BOTH times we had him. Good riddance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeeR Posted March 14, 2014 Author Share Posted March 14, 2014 OK in the flurry of FA moves, I missed Donald Brown signing with SD. I have ripped this guy for being a bust for years, but last year he FINALLY looked like a legit RB...and with Richardson sucking goose eggs and Ballard's ability to come back unknown (pls don't even mention Bradshaw, he gets hurt just reading the sports page), why would they let him go now, esp when SD signed him to a rather modest contract? They also signed some retread center from the Cowboys who can't stay healthy (maybe he and Bradshaw can go shopping together), and supposedly this means they aren't likely to pursue Mack. wtph are you doing Grigson........

Nice upgrade by CLE, and with (realistically) a new stud rook QB in town and various upgrades elsewhere (some better than others, but hey at least they're trying), they're really trying to tease the Brown fans into hope.

BA Baracus Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Easy there. I know you guys love to h8 but that's not a prohibitive contract. Just over 7 mil a year isn't going to break a bank, and it's certainly not #1 money. It's a ton less than Wallace got, it's less than Victor Cruz, it's less than Greg Jennings, it's less than Antonio Brown, it's less than Stevie Johnson. It's only 1.5M more than Danny freaking terrible Amendola in a year the cap went up by about 10M per year. Only $15M guaranteed, so depending on how it's structured it could even be a deal that's not a cap-strapper if he busts. I think it's a great deal for the Jets, but not so good for Decker. While not a true #1, he is still very good and I was hoping that he would land somewhere he had a good chance to succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tripleshot Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Wilfork wants released. Pats don't want him to count so much against the cap. Wilfork sounds upset he was asked to take a cut. In typical Patriot fashion, I can see him being coldly jettisoned in the "what have you done for me lately" manner in which they deal with aging veteran players. And then I can see him signing in Denver in less than a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
