Who cares if the Pats are better or worse on March 12. Let's wait till Sept 6 before being concerned.

true

teams like the jets/dolphins win free agency/offseason headlines while the pats win world championships.

Harvin + Bush and the returning offense we have would be insane. If they stay healthy, it could be 07 like.

not crazy about reggie bush tbh. prefer spiller since he's younger but he's NO bound.

@RapSheet: The #Jets are finalizing a 4-year contract for former #Chargers safety Marcus Gilchrist, source said. He will sign tomorrow.

Not impressed at all by their safeties. This makes the Cromartie contract look even worse because he will need some babysitting over the top and Gilchrist isn't a great option for that.

Big early morning move out of Tennessee: Titans reached agreement with former Redskins LB Brian Orakpo, per source.

Mike Garafolo ‏@MikeGarafolo 2m2 minutes ago
Brian Orakpo's deal with the Titans: four years, $32 million base value, $35 million max, with $13.5 guaranteed, per source.

Mike Garafolo ‏@MikeGarafolo 7m7 minutes ago
And things just got more interesting in Tennessee: The Titans have agreed to terms on a deal to retain LB Derrick Morgan, source says.

Mike Garafolo ‏@MikeGarafolo 6m6 minutes ago
Morgan's deal with the Titans is four years, $27 million base, with $3 million more in incentives, so $30 million max. $10.5m guaranteed.

Looking at those contracts
We stole Sheard.

Jets land target, agree with ex-Chargers safety Marcus Gilchrist #nyj: http://nyp.st/1CaLny5 via @nypost


Jets all in on DBs, including 3-4 who arguably could be our CB1. In March....

Apparently Bush wasn't very good last year but I still think he'd flourish on the Pats. I'd be fine with Percy + 1 of Spiller/Bush/Helu + trade of Mathis and I'm good with the offense.

Defense I'm OK with too just need a CB1...I actually think we could get by with Butler/Dennard/Ryan as the CB2 and Arrington in the slot.

I just hope were not back to the days of drafting a DB every year in the 1st or 2nd...ugh.

The #Redskins are signing CB Chris Culliver to a 4-year deal, source said. Another top corner off the board.

@RapSheet: The #Redskins are signing CB Chris Culliver to a 4-year deal, source said. Another top corner off the board.

Only CBs left I would consider CB1s is Mathis, and he's 35.

It may be time for a high CB pick in the draft to pair across Butler with Arrington in the slot.

@Rand_Getlin: Source: It's a four-year deal worth $32M for CB Chris Culliver and the #Redskins.

Jordan Cameron to the Dolphins? Really? Maybe we can get Clay then

Sigh. So we're back to drafting DB's in the 1st/2nd.

Last I read Phins are planning on keeping Clay.

Knighton is going to the Redskins 1 year 4 million.

WTF?

Maybe he was really out of shape? This is a weird one. Thought he was a pretty highly sought after FA. Would think he would get a multi year deal at least...

Yep. He was supposed to,be one of the big money free agents and he,got a prove it deal, pretty surprising.

I wouldn't touch Red Bryant, he was released by his former DC, that's a bad sign.

I'm right back too the idea of signing both VW and Starks. That would shore up DT.

I don't think so. What they are doing is keeping the transition tag on Clay in order to force Buffalo to make a more aggressive offer.

@AdamSchefter: Cowboys have agreed to a two-year deal with Darren McFadden, per multiple reports.

Cleveland could go after Clay as well.
He would be great in this offense but the cost would be too much.
You are more than likely looking at 6 plus million a season.
