Thats what happens when teams sign folks to hug contracts and backload everything, it can blow up in their faces.
Oh hell no. First Muhsin and now Berrian? What the fuck are the Bears doing?
Berrian left Minnesota without a contract and is on his way to Oakland to take to Al Davis.
The Dolphins been busy as fuck today, but I think they got a hidden gem in Ernest Wilford. He's not a deep threat with top-end speed like Bernard Berrian, but he's a big target in the red-zone and he's a helluva downfield blocker. He just needs to be in the right system in order to thrive as a legitimate WR.
But what tha fuck were they thinking with Calvin Pace? That’s about as ridiculous as the contract they signed Joey Porter to last year.

so does that mean we have more money to play with now? we need a damn receiver, and a LB too.
They put the franchise tag on LJ Smith. I always thought he could have been better, like Tony Gonzalez. Maybe they dont draw up enough plays for him.
Moose had to go. I am sad to see Berrian go but he wants too much money.
Looks like Minnesota is out of the running for Berrian for the time being.
Free agent Bernard Berrian is reportedly en route to Oakland.
The Vikings couldn't get him signed immediately, not that they're entirely out of the running. Berrian is the deep threat big-armed JaMarcus Russell needs and Al Davis has tons of cap room, even after the Tommy Kelly signing.
EDIT:

Not a done deal BUT DAMN San Fran you greedy fuckers!!!

Lance Briggs is what you call a "system guy". I don't see him playing as well as he did in the "Cover-Two' scheme that the Bears ran.
Good luck to whoever ends up overpaying for his services.
Word...the saints are upgrading big time......ARE WE STILL TALKING TO THE GIANTS ABOUT SHOCKEY?.....This Is A Good Look....We Need To Look At Drayton And Randall ASAP
DAHITMAN
Rising Star
Damn Giants just lost another piece.
I'm really hoping that Marion stay on board here, but if he doesn't who can blame him, but I will be so sick.
Barber is going NOWHERE he is a RFA and any deal will be matched
Meanwhile the Falcons re-signed Chris Redman...
So long Javon Walker.
yeah we do our 1st round pick is low though so I might have gone after Suggs
there is no one out there to throw money at
Gigantic? Hes listed at 297. Gigantic big is what the Panthers have at their other started DT spot. Maake Kemoeatu. Hes 6'5 345
Y'all aint got the cap-room to go out and get anybody. You know, after giving Brandon Lloyd, Adam Archuleta and Antwan Randle-El all that money.

we could if we wanted to we are in the process of restructuring contracts but who is there to spend BIG money on that will make a difference. We can wait and plug holes cheaper later
strange signings I wonder what Bill is doing down there?
brandon lloyd is gone, brunell's contract was just voided. Chris Cooley's contract was already restructured. Trust me, Danny Boy (Snyder) is workin' that salary cap situation as we speak. I would love to see T-sizzle (suggs) in burgundy and gold but that is just a wish..hopefully we load up on draft picks with some shrewd moves. at least move up from 22 or wherever we are in the draft positioning.
Spending that money. That cat is trigger happy, he overspent for Pace and and the guard Justin Smiley. Wilford was probably the best pick up and I think he and Ginn can do damage providing they draft Matt Ryan.
did they sign Pace i read something earlier that said he left without signing to see the jets
Bill is not gonna draft Matt Ryan with the number one.....if he can move down multiple times maybe
Well according to Rotoworld, his agent is driving the market up for him and has been saying all day that he was signed to almost like 3 different teams and the Dolphins ultimately offered him 20 MILLION GUARANTEED. They probably will confirm and announce the signing tomorrow, but his agent is playing that hardball.
the big tuna likes offensive lineman, this goes back to his days runnin' the NY Giants..I would bank on Pace in a dolphins uni.
Pace is a dl/lb from the cards
