Read on Jay Glazer's twitter that no UFA can sign until 6pm on Friday. But can other teams negotiate with players before that?

We heard a lot of different things prior to today.

The original word was that there would be a "grace period" where teams could negotiate with their own players. Then came word last night from some sources that full blown free agency started at 10am today. Others said what Glazer is saying.

Since all the news today has been only undrafteds or released players, Glazer is probably right.

I definitely heard them say that the 'grace period' was out the window yesterday. Teams can obviously negotiate but can't officially sign until Friday, but can they announce signings or "agreed in principle"?

Yesterday they also said that players would not be released until Thursday but the Ravens wasted no time anouncing which players they were going to release and other teams have followed suit.

Waiting for that first big "announcement"

      It’s time to discuss DANimal Morgan as our GM

      He’s responsible for two drafts classes. The first was one of the worst drafts I’ve ever seem. The second one is showing a ton of promise. I’m somewhere between skeptical and hopeful on Morgan.

      I'm a big fan of Dan. His ability to find productive players deep in the draft will pay off.  I'm going to give him 1.5 draft classes right now, because I do think it's a little unfair to evaluate his first year when he got the job in January, especially when we went into that draft not having a first round pick.  XL and Brooks are still big time TBD players. Both still have incredibly high ceilings, but both have also given us legitimate reasons to have a lot of pause. Trevin Wallace, Chau Smith Wade and Jatavion Sanders have IMO outplayed their draft position early in their careers. That's a great thing. He also got Coker and Demani Richardson as UDFAs that year. Given the situation we were in, I really don't mind the gamble on the high ceiling guys. Still may work out, still may not, but if you made a checklist of ideal situation for an NFL GM to walk into, ours was near the bottom of that list.  Every single 2025 pick is contributing in some way. That typically doesn't happen. I am absolutely blown away by this draft class 6 games in. Even the best GM's miss on occasion, and we can't expect Dan to be 100% on drafts moving forward. Ryan Fitzgerald was an excellent find as well.  Comparing our last two drafts to the previous few is pretty shocking. Can you imagine this season without our Rookies? It would not be good. Additionally, this roster only has 6 players with more than 6 years of experience, and two of those are specialist.  The next step is equally important, and still very much TBD. We have to avoid Cap Chaos.
