Other Teams' Free Agent News

Word the Dolphins are interested in Kyle Orton.

Rumor that the Seahawks might take a look at Matt Leinart (wonder whose idea that was) :sosp:

Hasselbeck might head to the 49ers.

Saw speculation earlier that the Bears have no interest in Burress, Ochocinco or TO. I'd have thought at least one of them might be on the radar.

Moved the Annual Midnight Vigil to 10am :lol:

So far, still pretty much all undrafteds. In the past teams would have had time to do a little legwork (read: tampering) behind the scenes prior to the start of free agency. This year was a little different in that regard, so yeah, it may start slow.

Only got a short time frame to get it all done though, so it may not be slow for long.

Eagle fans won't like hearing this.

Michael Vick is telling people he thinks DeSean Jackson will hold out (reported in Rotoworld).

Word that Osi Umenyiora will do the same in New York. Given he's been rumored as a cut for a while now, not sure how effective a strategy that is.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
