Free Agency 2010


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Some early stuff...

Cleveland Plain Dealer reports that the Browns are looking to acquire a QB via trade (quoted in the Red Zone). Holmgren's a WCO guy. Wonder if he'd go after Bolton (or, for that matter, McNabb).

The Panthers aren't the only team to do an about face on a franchise player. The Rams last year put a non-exclusive Franchise tag on safety OJ Atogwe. This year, per the St Louis Dispatch (seen in Rotoworld) they're giving him the low tender. They'd have the right to match offers, but would get no compensation if they chose not to.

Michael Lombardi is saying the Jets are "extremely interested" in acquiring Antonio Cromartie. Having a DB tandem of Revis and Cromartie could be intriguing, but one of the Jets beat reporters (Rich Cimini) says the Chargers won't trade him to an AFC team.

Interesting prospect from PFT:

Peppers could push Harris off Bears roster

:svengo: Haha this shows how much peppers wanted to leave carolina that bad. He gave up a 14 mill. a year contract to possibly go toa bears team who was no better then panthers last year. Is that how dumb peppers and his so called agent is. If peppers is looking for a SB calibur team to get a ring quick. He better go looking for another team. Because the bears is not really a SB contender team right now just like the panthers. But good luck to peppers to where ever he goes.:grouphug::crazy:

Haha don't expect the panthers to be to envolved in the FA market. We haven't been big in the FA market for years now. Don't expect to happen this year.:rolleyes::icon_bs:

I meant in general. It's still fun to see all the hoopla that takes place. Though this year will be toned down a bit most likely.

Thanks for the links Mr. Scot! Bookmarks added to help me get my NFL fix!

I could see the Browns making a move for McNabb before Vick. It's still unknown if Vick can get back to his before prison level play which relied heavily on his mobility in the pocket. It seems he's lost a step in the few instances I saw him play last year.

Revis and Cromartie would be intriguing indeed. However I can't see the Chargers trading him in the AFC if it can be helped. The Jets might just step up and offer something they can't turn down though.

Also Lovie Smith is on the hot seat this year. The Bears have made it very clear Playoffs or get fired.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
