NFL Legal Tampering Window Opens March 7

[shopson67]

Dolphins signed Mario, so Hayes may be off their radar.

Jenkins expected to sign with the Giants for $12M per.

 

[TEB11]

Looks as though William Hayes is also on the Cardinals radar per the NFL Network. I am just hoping the Rams don't do what they usually do and wait around 'till all of the needs are scooped up. They have 48 million to spend so spend it!!!!!!

 

[shopson67]

Jenkins got 5y/$62M, $29 guaranteed. 2nd highest paid CB.

Good luck, Giants.

official, unofficial, he gone

 

[Vitamike]

Yup!

 

[Retroram52]

Some of the nationwide sports talk radio shows I have listened to in the past 24 hours are laughing up a storm. Jenkins is headed back to play for Spagnuoli who is the Geeants D-coordinator but many of the pundits believe this weasel will be in trouble with the law by mid-season. They sure as hell all believe the Geeants over-paid for the dude. LOL!

Pretty much just Harkey and Sims left to re-sign, maybe Zuerlein & Fairley if we can get value.

I'm sure we may sign another teams free agent before it's said and done.

I bet they are looking for them value free agents. Free Agents who will provide some depth.

I think Fairly is as good as gone. I've been hearing he's going to the Jets now that they lost "Snacks"

That's why I said 'maybe'. We only resign him for value, he is not a starter IMO.

don't get me wrong, I'd LOVE to have him back!!! But I think the a team like the Jets are going to throw some big money at him...Doesn't seem to be much value this offseason so far, everyone is getting overpaid, its INSANE!!!

 

[Vitamike]

Doesn't seem to be much value this offseason so far, everyone is getting overpaid, its INSANE!!!

I'm like you, I want him back but I don't want to overpay. Let him walk if he gets overpaid and maybe we get another decent comp. pick (?)

As far as the value thing goes, once the hype names are gone it should settle down.

Usually I'd agree, but when a guy like Oliver Vernon gets THAT much money, its a bit scary...He's a good player, I'd even say very good. But THAT much money? WOW!!!

edit: think about what Donald will demand now!!!

Checkmate...

Do I get a rematch?

 

[Retroram52]

Most if not of all the ERFAs will re-sign for modest increases in salary right about the time OTAs start. They do every year. Harkey will re-sign as will probably Sims as he is up next for a pay raise.

 

[Retroram52]

Speaking of tampering. The K.C. Chiefs got caught tampering and have been docked two draft picks. Ouch!

I definitely want Sims back!!!
