2014 NFL Offseason Thread

[Twist]

Bears have signed Houston on a five year deal, 15 mil guaranteed, 35 mil in total.

[Dan]

Jacksonville traded QB Blaine Gabbert to SF for a 6th round pick, per sources.

Posting that again because it's fucking brilliant.

[thatshortguy]

Jon Asamoah, Paul Soliai and Tyson Jackson all to Atlanta. They are serious about rebuilding those lines. Me likey.

[Berober]

Just you wait and see, Blaine's gonna be a superstar.

^{(Yes I'm posting this any chance I get)}

Browns are apparently making a run at Revis. I know the Browns tend to fuck things up, but if they could pull that deal at the right price, they'd have a pretty godly combo of Revis and Joe Haden.

[Maxx]

DeMarcus Ware will be cut by the Cowboys.

It's not like they were winning a title anyway.

Yup.

The money we save will help us give Dez a long tern deal and I'd rather have him in his prime than Ware from age 33 on. It's an oddly sensible move from our senile owner.

I put Ware's chances of signing with an NFC East team somewhere around 98%.

I'm really hoping they bring in Dixie Carter as a guest GM for this deal

[jrhodes]

Julius Peppers has been cut by the Bears according to the NFL Network.

A lot of ageing pass rushers in FA now.

Yea, can't remember who it was but I saw someone of Twitter say the Eagles have a strong interest in him. Not sure how I feel about that

[Maxx]

Yahoo is reporting the Cowboys are talking with Henry Melton and a deal could happen quickly. Wonder if Peppers would come rejoin Marenelli at a reduced rate too.

[HC]

So unless Kaep gets his new deal before the season starts, Gabbert's salary will be double his. That's fucked up.

[Plubby]

Well with all dat arm strength he's gonna be able to hold a clipboard all game long! Superstar clipboarder!

The 49ers have now also traded for Jonathan Martin.

Weird day.

[HC]

Now that trade makes a bit more sense than Gabbert, given Martin's history with Harbaugh. I would've said the Niners or the Colts would've been a good fit for him.

[livid]

Both make sense really. They're both former first round picks and were acquired for low round picks (no details on the Martin pick but can't imagine it'll be high). The 49ers have too many picks and not enough roster spots. Using those picks to shore up depth while taking low risk for potentially high reward is smart.

[HC]

Agreed on Martin. I still wouldn't have traded a cheese pizza for Gabbert(and his 2 mil. salary) let alone a draft pick, but if anyone can salvage him it's Harbaugh. If I were Blaine I'd be really excited right now.

[SilentHitman]

I'm guessing Colt McCoy is or will be gone from the 49ers soon then?

EDIT: Nvm just looked it up, he's gone.

Broncos load up on the secondary by stealing Talib from the Pats for a lot of money to pair with TJ Ward...they are going all out for a SB.

[million$$man]

If Martin is on the opening day 53 man roster this upcoming season the Niners give up a 7th rounder...If he is not, the Niners give up nothing....Not a bad deal at all

[million$$man]

As a Bucs fan, I am liking the makeup of this defense. Johnson, McCoy, David, Verner, Barron, Goldson, and possibly Tillman will give offenses nightmares next season....Now this Bucs just need to get their O-Line under control.
