Oh hey, another reason for me to hate the Redskins. Give him back.

[Tweek]

wtf redskins sign eddie royal, garcon and josh morgan? how many WRs they need?

[archibaldcrane]

Would be great if the Redskins are completely ignoring that bullshit Goodell punishment, spending like normal and waiting for the league to say "hey wait you're 20M over the cap" so they can team up with the NFLPA and sue the league for collusion last season.

[Tyche]

Miami and Indi radio reporting that Miami is scheduled to meet with Manning again.

NFLPA approved the sanctions.

NFLPA approved the sanctions.

Q: Why isn't the union challenging this?

A: While this behavior seems to fit the very dictionary definition of collusion, as multiple teams were engaged in discussions to limit the earning potential of their employees and prospective employees, do not expect it to be challenged in court. The decision today, in which the Redskins were docked $36 million in cap space and the Cowboys $10 million, is the result of a settlement between the NFL and the NFLPA. One reason the union has no problem with it is that the money lost to the Cowboys and Redskins is not taken out of the overall 2012 spending pool — each of 28 other teams gets $1.6 million extra in cap room, so there's no net loss league-wide. Another reason the union won't push on it is because they agreed, as part of the settlement of last year's Brady vs. NFL federal lawsuit, to drop all pending legal action against the league. That included their claims that the league engaged in collusion in 2010.

josh morgan deal looks hella cheaper than garcon.

[Weltall]

Garcon really THAT much better than Morgan?

WR Josh Morgan on a five-year, $12 million contract.
