Losing the majority of the fan favourites in one off season along with the NFL's most winningest coach is brutal, doesn't matter if they are top of their game or we have theoretical replacements/do okay without, shit fucking sucks, losing Jim is still the worst though. It's only football but I wouldn't mind Jed having a horrific accident

Has the PSL revolt started yet?
So Raiders O-Line currently is going to be:
LT: Donald Penn
LG: Gabe Jackson
C: Rodney Hudson
RG: Khalif Barnes?
RT: Austin Howard
Menelik Watson will have to beat out Howard otherwise he'll be a swing tackle, hopefully he can develop into a LT because he's an athletic fuck for only having maybe 4-5 years of football experience. Kevin Boothe will back up C and either guard positions. I'm assuming they'll keep Lamar Mady and Matt McCants, Tony Bergstrom gets the boot for a FA signing or draftee. Well the same can go for either Mady or McCants.

Hoping someone comes back does not equal I think he's coming back. 49ers will be fine. Kaep should be able to pick up the slack and outscore teams in shootouts.

The guy wants to get paid, it's a purely financial decision on his part. And with that kind of contract, can you blame him?
It also prevents him from having to go to Detroit for 6 months out of the year, an added bonus.

He's grabbing her butt in a real firmly matter.
The Texans signed both Ryan Mallett and Brian Hoyer? The dream of Pats South is still alive. Now they just need Wilfork and it'll be time for them to fulfill their destiny of crushing the Colts.
After seeing Jeremy Parnell get five years, $32 million to start in Jacksonville, I don't feel so bad about Marcus Cannon's 2 years, $9 million to be the swing tackle in New England. Cannon would've gotten paid if he hit the open market.

If they didn't want this then they should just eliminate the legal tampering period.
Except the Raiders

I mean who cares at this point. No secret teams are talking to free agents already. Let them go.
No he wasn't. There were reports they were planning on cutting him, but then there were reports that they were working on a pay cut to keep him on the team.

I would imagine most GM's would heavily disagree. FA gives them an opportunity to target specific free agents to plug holes at certain positions they wouldn't normally prioritize in the draft. Hence allowing them to maximize their round 1/2 draft picks according to what positions they value the most. If you switch that around, you're likely to see teams reach for certain positions they wouldn't normally place high value on to plug those holes.
Money is money. Draft picks aren't quite as disposable.
Telesco putting in work ;_;
Jacoby Jones leading our special teams, Orlando bulking up protection for Rivars and Flowers returning oh god I can't believe I'm actually looking forward to the season now.
let us get all day now and I'll just die happy

Got Hudson today
Jets aren't allowed to sign Revis based on their previous tampering charge involving him.
NFLPA would also highly oppose it

so bears fans. When lovie was your coach, did he ever fix your o-line woes?

Much more legitimate a talent than Ellerbe or Kruger. He's a pass rusher though, and not much else. He'll get to the QB, but he won't be on the field all the time. Depending on the price, he could be worth it.
It's like Christmas!!

I think it's better as opposed to how the NBA does it where the draft is first and then free agency. The draft is such a crapshoot, you never really know what you get and at least in free agency, you have a semblance of an idea. I think

Lmfao Jordan wants that ass
Teams were already tampering before free agency started anyway, they just wanted to make it semi-legal now.
It's the NFL's own fault for never enforcing the old tampering rules in the least. The Redskins signed Albert Haynesworth to a $100 million deal at 12:01 AM the first day free agency opened. Are we supposed to believe that Redskins and Haynesworth had never spoken, then negotiated, crafted and agreed to a 9-figure, complex legal document in the span of 60 seconds?
It is a joke and the NFL shouldn't be mad that teams continue to treat it as a joke when they allowed the farce to continue untouched for years.

No, the Sanchize!
B. Graham playing in a 4-3 system instead of out of position in a 3-4 would be great. And with Suh and Wake on that line? Shit that might be the best line in football.
I guess Eagles aren't even interested in bringing him back.
So now it's either Kaep or Mariota. Excited for either or.
Do you think the Packers will pay him that much?
Guys, Stephen A figured out why the Eagles are making the moves they are- it's because Chip Kelly is racist
