NFL Offseason transactions. Week l337

[Weltall]

Man-genius/Quinn era starts now! Too bad they're taking a pass on the free agent market... not like the defense needs work or anything.

John Clayton reported today there is a chance of Shaun Rodgers + Brady Quinn to Denver for Cutler + conditional draft picks.

The Ohio fans will be in an uprise if that happens.

[recuperi]

From what I could tell that was just a lot of speculation. I saw that earlier, and basically it said they'd be giving up 8mil in cap space plus paying Cutler just for the trade. It'd be crazy to see that happen though, and I really wouldn't doubt it with how bad Cutler apparently hates the team's FO now lol

[Kyo]

So T.J. Houshmanzadeh is a seahawk, intresting.

[Weltall]

Bad choice imo; Seahawks aren't going anywhere anytime soon except to early draft rounds.

TJ said he would choose money over a good team. he is a straight clown

[Weltall]

TJ said he would choose money over a good team. he is a straight clown

Yeah, but at least he looks like a clown. He looks like a cheap pimp on the side of Las Vegas. I didn't even want him on the Titans and we are WR desperate.

[Quixon]

If the Bengals were smart, they would trade Palmer away for a ton of draft picks and just start over. After this year he is going to want out of there and they won't get nearly as much value.

I agree. I don't understand why he hasn't already started bitching lol.


And I would LOL if Cutler goes to the Browns, although I doubt it. See how the whiny bitch likes that.

[Tyche]

Warner makes proposal to Cardinals


2 years, $23M with $6M guaranteed per year (less likely to cut him in 2010). Also willing to drop is 1M/year if they renegotiate Boldin (but fuck that right now).

Oddly, fans here have been turning on him for looking for more money; most don't seem to realize the 2 years, $20M is structured horribly for him. But once they see this...if the front office doesn't jump on this deal, the fans are going to be pissed. All 63 of us!

And I was excited for the start of the Matty Era...

Why would the fans be pissed at Warner for asking for the money he deserves. They should be diverting their anger properly to the peice of shit Bidwell's who have historically refused to spend...now that they have a chance to really get the ball rolling, they are letting two marquee players slip into free agency.

[Headspace]

Bengals sign Benson. Finally.

He got over 700 yards last season after no training camp, no passing game, and behind the worst offensive line next to the chiefs. Now I hope we get Matt Birk, then have him groom our 2nd round center.

[tyven]

you're still drafting beanie wells

[Headspace]

Maybe if he falls to the third. But I'd rather go Monroe/Smith/Smith in the first, Mack/Ungur in the 2nd, and go with Shonn Greene in the third.

But it'll probably go Crabtree, trade 85 for a first for Beanie Wells, then draft an OL in the 2nd.

[Headspace]

and lol @ the Jets basically becoming the Ravens.

[Mizango]

and lol @ the Jets basically becoming the Ravens.

Yes they are lol. Ravens v2.0

Man the Bengals are a fucking joke. Do they know what the hell free agency means? Id let Bensons sorry ass walk. 7 mil to Benson? Hell no.

[MrW]

Jersey is less sexy. Fuck the Jets.

7 over 2, which is better than franchising him. However, if we let Benson walk, we'd have Kenny Watson, Dede Dorsey, and an unknown rookie. Or Chris Perry. I'd pay Benson 7mil just to get the ball and defenders away from Palmer.

[Soa]

Man the Bengals are a fucking joke. Do they know what the hell free agency means?

Could be worse, they could be the Eagles.

[Weltall]

Could be worse, they could be the Eagles.

You mean the team that has gone to 50% of NFC championships over the last decade?

Yeah....sure would rather be the Bengals. Man, Philly fans are idiots.

[Penthesilea]

Except he's referring to FA acquisitions not our successes (or lack thereof) during the season.

[archibaldcrane]

Running back free agency was super thin this year, Benson is part of the cream of the crop - if you can call it that.

[Weltall]

Except he's referring to FA acquisitions not our successes (or lack thereof) during the season.

Yes, I know what the topic at hand is currently. I am saying have some faith in the 2nd most successful team behind the Pats over the last 10 years..... in terms of conference championships anyway.

Any team, or sane fanbase, would kill for a 50% rate.
