Titans just signed Matt Cassell. How much of an improvement is that over Mett?

It's not very effective...

He isn't.

Few could equal the majesty of the Mett's beard.

Love the Bears picking up Trevathan. Fills a desperate need with a top-quality player.

Not so keen on the news that we've signed Bobbie Massie to be our new RT, moving Long back to RG. Whenever I've seen Massie he's played like a turnstile.

And the Bears have also re-signed Tracy Porter which I'm cool with because he played well for us last season.

Don't worry, you have hometown team now

I mean, I don't dislike the Rams, but I'm not really sure I could switch like that. I'm in too deep.

Giants signed Oliver Vernon. That's good.

They gave him $56mil guaranteed, more than JJ Watt. That's bad. 

OBJ's monster contract in 2018 is a terrifying cap thought right now.

Chiefs lose two draft picks for tampering with Maclin

Coby Fleener agrees to 5-year, $36M deal with Saints

Atlanta Falcons find backup QB in Matt Schaub

[Maxx]

Matt Schaub's career comes full circle.

[The Buscher]

Absolutely love the Giants' moves today.  A ton of money, yes.  But that's the nature of NFL free agency.  It'll be nice to have something resembling a competent defensive line.

[Lineker]

Adam Jones is staying with the Bengals.

First post-first-wave-of-free-agency mock draft

[Maxx]

C'mon Lineker, stop posting Lance Zierlein mocks.

[Lineker]

It just so happened to be the first one I saw after today's events  

[Schlitzbrille]

At least Ryan Mallett is kind of photogenic.

[munky]

It appears Jim Schwartz has some say in personnel with the Eagles, they've signed three former Bills from his time in Buffalo. It's kinda weird to see other teams actually want ex-Buffalo players.

I'm just going to sit back and enjoy this Super Bowl win for a while. But to be perfectly honest, I'm glad we didn't sign Osweiler to that money. I've made my stance known that I don't think he's the type of quarterback that'll win a Super Bowl. I'd much rather us take a chance on someone in the draft, despite it being a weak QB class. Maybe someone will click in the system. Or maybe we'll put RG3 and Kapernick in there and let them scurry about until they're both sidelined with injuries. The possibilities are endless!

Well, Kaep and RG3 will have a much better chance of running away from Khalil Mack than Brock would, so there's that.

[Meacon Keaton]

We'll still finish higher in the standings than you guys.

Fleener's had hands like bricks at times. Glad the Colts let him walk. If Allen can stay healthy, we'll be alright.

Was hoping that we'd try to reel in guys like Alex Mack or Boone to provide immediate help to a paper mache offensive line.

[gunnar hendershow]

I know the talk is the Broncos want Kaep, but why make a big trade for him when you can just sign RG3?

[Meacon Keaton]

It's times like this I wish Chip Kelly was the San Fran GM. We could teach him to pat his head and rub his tummy and he'd just give us Kaepernick.
