Official Free Agency Thread (Post all signings here)

I am actually a little excited by this. He is a potential very good CB and return man if he straightens out his act. I was very dissapointed we didn't draft him when he came out but then he got into all the trouble and it made sense.

Baalke said they have done their due diligence. It's somewhat out of character for them to sign a guy like this, so I have to belive the fron office is confident he's gonna clean up his act. Would like to know the numbers, but to get him off the street and have a potential contributor on two fronts is great! Could pay off huge!

yeah, does seem like another good value signing, similar (not same) to Rogers last year.

also doesn't appear he's signed "just" as a back-up? maybe not start immediately, but seems like he could challenge sooner rather than later? we do need a quality NB, so is he this guy?

Cam Inman:

49ers re-sign Tavares Gooden, who ranked third on the 49ers in special teams tackles. That unit's top tackler: Blake Costanzo, a free agent

 

[NinerSickness]

Cox was actually one of my favourite late round prospects when he was drafted, but I didn't know he'd act like such a dummy.

La Canfora:

Hearing Dolphins making a push to retain NT Paul Soliai, who was franchised in 2011. Busy day in Miami #freeagency

 

[RhojiF]

Bingo liked Brown i believe... or was it Rhoji?

Yeah, it was both of us. I thought he'd be a beast.

 

[AU_Fever]

Bills sign Meachem. Damn! I really wanted him.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Bills to officially meet with Mario Williams according to Schefter.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Cortland Finnegan will officially visit with the Rams, too. That one has been expected for quite some time.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Bills sign Meachem. Damn! I really wanted him.

Who reported that they have signed him this quick? Everything I am reading says that they are just going to meet with him tonight.

 

[ChrisPozz]

More visits scheduled via Schefter:

Brandon Meriweather will visit with the Broncos.

Brandon Carr will visit with the Cowboys.

 

[CalamityX11]

Ahh bills are getting serious with mario....

Damn oh well for Meachem...

[bigpb72]

Dolphins trade WR Brandon Marshall to Bears for 3rd-round pick in 2012 and 3rd-round pick in 2013. Marshall rejoins Cutler.

 

[EaseUrStorm]

Hopefully it was just some crazy bitch trying to get pregnant and set him up. He's stupid as hell for getting in that situation. But hopefully it was her intent and not him being a crazy rapist. It's a good move for depth. Might take Brock's spot away because we should be adding another CB through draft or FA.

 

[Bemular]

Garcon to Skins?

 

[ChrisPozz]

Garcon is only talking contract numbers with Washington. No deal yet...reportedly.

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

Yes!!!! we got Meachem!!

I was just having a pipedream about getting Mario Williams, hard to believe we could seriously actually get him

 

[ChrisPozz]

Shawn Zobel is also reporting that Miami is going to make a run at Steve Hutchinson to appease Manning. The two are good friends.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Geoff Hangartner agrees to a 3-year deal to stay with the Panthers according to JLC.

 

[Bemular]

QB Alex Smith is not committed to the 49ers for the first time since the day he was drafted in 2005. He's been on the market for 30 minutes - MM
