What is the Giants Cap space like? Could they possibly look at CJ after signing Williams?

Edit: Yeah I thought so the Giants have bags of money to throw at FAs. So could they follow up Williams with CJ?

Don't know why they would sign two vets who have only played LE in their career, but they definitely could with their cap space. Smart money would be on them re-signing JPP and pairing him with Mario. I think it's one or the other with Mario and CJ.

Which is amazing given the defense they had built not that long ago.

They've only had a top 10 defense by scoring once in the past 12 years which was in 2008 the year after their first Super Bowl win over the Patriots. It was more that they just showed up once the playoffs started. The average rank of their defense by scoring since Eli has been there is 19.33.

They won with their defense but their defense wasn't really that good overall.

Rand Getlin confirms that the Redskins are, in fact, releasing DT Jason Hatcher.

Hatcher, 33, signed a four-year, $27.5 million contract that included $10.5 million guaranteed with the Redskins back in 2013. He was set to make a base salary of $6.5 million for the 2016 season.

According to OverTheCap.com, releasing will free up $4,234,375 in available cap space while creating $4,500,000 in dead money.

In 2015, Hatcher appeared in 15 games and recorded 20 tackles, two sacks, a forced fumble and a pass defense.

 

Jason Hatcher hinting that he's been been cut on Instagram. Doesn't sound like he's retiring #Redskins

He's old, but I could see him being a sleeper Dwan replacement if other options fall through. May have a year or two left.

Dolphins RB Lamar Miller was thinking he could get a deal similar to DeMarco Murrays. I'm hearing his market is in the 4-5 mil range not 8.

 

Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports that the Dolphins will allow free agent RB Lamar Miller to test the open market in the coming days.

In 2015, Miller appeared in all 16 games for the Dolphins and ran for 872 yards on 194 carries (4.5 YPC) to go along with 47 receptions for 397 yards receiving and 10 total touchdowns. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 5 running back out of 68 qualifying players.

Mike Klis of 9News reports that the Broncos expected to use a low-round tender on restricted free agent RB C.J. Anderson.

The low-round tender will cost the Broncos  $1,671,000 for the 2016 season and give them the right of first refusal on any contract offer they receive. However, if they elect to not match an offer sheet, Denver would not receive any compensation for him.

Anderson, 25, wound up signing on with the Broncos as an undrafted free agent out of California back in 2013.

In 2015, Anderson ran for 720 yards on 152 carries (4.7 YPC) to go along with 25 receptions for 183 yards receiving and five total touchdowns. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 37 running back out of 69 qualifying players.

Ravens guard-tackle Kelechi Osemele (Langham Park) is expected to cash in as one of top free agents. Wants to be highest paid guard at least

Highest paid guard means at least $9.5M/year for anyone wondering. That's probably also the starting point for a future Trai Turner contract which is a sobering thought.

Maxwell had an awful year last year, and his contract is ridiculous.  Why would anyone want to trade for it?  Never mind, it's the Phins.  doesn't shock me.
