According to Dave Spadaro, Bengals free-agent tackle Stacy Andrews will be in town this afternoon. The reports are Andrews has already inked a deal and must pass a physical first. Andrews suffered a torn ACL late in the season, so I hope the guy is healthy. Apparently, the Birds were interested in Andrews last season [...]

Written by Daniel Evans | February 27, 2009 | Comments Off | NFL Mocks, Other Blogs

Tom Brady Who?

Written by Kim | February 27, 2009 | Comments Off | Predominantly Orange (Broncos)

Who cares if Tom Brady got married last night? I don’t! I care more about the possibility of Jabar Gaffney reuniting with Josh McDaniels in Denver. Gaffney will meet with the Broncos today. Imagine (Insert clouds and xylophones) Gaffney lined up with Brandon Marshall, Eddie Royal, and Jay Cutler. I see a New England Patriots [...]

Sage Rosenfels Now a Viking…Officially

Written by Dan Zinski | February 27, 2009 | Comments Off | The Viking Age (Vikings)

Sage Rosenfels flew into Minneapolis yesterday, and sat through a terrible snowstorm so he could be at Winter Park to officially be introduced as the newest member of the Vikings.  I’m guessing he would’ve been pretty ticked if some last minute thing had come up – like the Vikes deciding to make a run at [...]

Rumor Mill Workin’ Overtime

Written by Scott | February 27, 2009 | Comments Off | Inside the Iggles (Eagles)

Free agency kicked-off about ten hours ago and still nothing concrete to report on the Eagles‘ front. Of course, this lack of activity means all we have to rely on is speculation. As we all know, that’s not very reliable. Here’s some of the whispers I’ve been hearing:
T.J. Houshmandzadeh sent a text message to a [...]

Phins Bringind In Berger

Written by Brian Miller | February 27, 2009 | Comments Off | Phin Phanatic (Dolphins)

The Miami Dolphins are following the same formula they did last year…at least to start the official free agent season.  They are turning their attention to the Dallas Cowboys.  The only scheduled visit thus far is OG/C Joe Berger and some think that barring a serious glitch, Berger will be the first FA acquisition of [...]

Written by gnbishop | February 27, 2009 | Comments Off | Titan Sized (Titans)

In total, the deal could reach almost $115 million dollars (including incentives) over the next seven years, with a whopping $41 million guaranteed [...]

No Contract For Birk, Kleinsasser; Sharper Sad to Go

Written by Dan Zinski | February 27, 2009 | Comments Off | The Viking Age (Vikings)

The Vikings failed to reach agreement with either Matt Birk or Jim Kleinsasser before 11 PM Thursday night, meaning both long-time Purple stalwarts will hit the market.  It would be sort of a shock to go into the season with both Matty and Jimmy in other uniforms, but that’s the way of the sporting world [...]

Written by Dan Zinski | February 27, 2009 | Comments Off | The Viking Age (Vikings)

T.J. Houshmandazadeh is by far the top receiver available in free agency.  It’s unknown right now whether the Vikings are targeting him, but T.J. has let it be known that he is certainly targeting the Vikes.  Appearing on ESPN, the soon-to-be-former Bengals stand-out said:
