A non-exclusive deal would be great. I don't see the NFL making an exclusive deal with anyone BUT DirecTV though, Dish Network is too small and any of the big cable carriers would mean no coverage in large parts of the country.

I just read Winston's comments about being released. Classy as fuck. I really thought Branden Albert would be the one they let go, but they franchise-tagged him at $10m. Winston was scheduled to make less than half that at $4.9m. Having said all that, they probably made the correct decision considering the upcoming draft.

Well, the Dolphins resigned Hartline which is a god damn relief. He was only person that dude anything last season in the receiver spot (even if he did only catch one TD). It looks like they want to go after Mike Wallace as well, I really hope they don't though. I believe he was one of the more overrated WR's in the league and more a product of the system he played in as opposed to being outstanding due to his ability. With the free agents coming up though who knows what they'll do, Jake Long, Reggie Bush, Sean Smith, Chris Clemons, Anthony Fasano, and Nate Garner. Reggie has probably reached his prime and will only decline from where he's at now but god damn was Daniel Thomas a fucking bust. That fuck face has done nothing but get hurt since he joined the league. But I think Garner, Fasano, and Clemons are gone.
I think you are putting the cart before the horse there. Wallace was an unbelievable, at times indefensible middle to deep threat. Look at the advanced stats on the guy up until last year. When you've got a guy that good then you are going to bend the system to get him his opportunities. Then Todd Haley came in and said "hey, Mr. Receiver who is absurdly good at 3rd and longs and deep balls, I'm gonna need you to run a whole shit ton of slants and crossing patterns. k, thx." How many years does he have left in his very specific, but extremely valuable niche? That is less clear, but he's absolutely worth the cost for now.

Inb4 John Mara tries to fuck over the NFC East again to gain an advantage or just fucks over other teams because him and the NFL love to make rules that aren't in the rules. Hey guys you can legally tamper over the weekend and then sends a memo that says you better not even though in the CBA it fucking says you can and we all know they have no problem allowing memos to overwrite the CBA.

Dallas fans man up to how stupid Jerry Jones is, grow a sack and admit your owner is a cheating little fuck stick prick.

Felt the same way as Wallace, but the fact is he forces other teams to double cover him. That alone will help Hartline, and company. When you dig a little deeper at Wallace's decline in numbers overall, it seems to coincide with Rothlsberger injuries. It will be a steep price though, I'm expecting 12-13 mil per. This is an elite guy, my only concern is will he play once he gets paid.
As for Bush, and Smith... Bush is gone, they will give Lamar Miller his touches, and is a better blocker than Bush. This guy was a steal last season, I expect big things from him... Smith in no way shape or form is worth what he will get in FA which will be around 8 mil per year. He has great size, very good speed, but had very little production for us. He got burned far to often, and wasn't even a starter until last season. Let him walk. He's worth half of what he will get, if that.

Ravens telling Boldin pretty much, restructure or you're gone. I guess money is a bit tight in Baltimore these days...

Steelers released James Harrison. He was due 6.5 and 7 mil over the next two years, and they couldn't get his contract reworked. One of those sad it's come to this situations, but you can't pay that much for a 34 year old OLB who can't stay on the field. Frees up 5.1mil in cap space.

Didn't they offer him restructuring? He could have stayed if he wanted to, wonder who the hell might actually take him on? I for one will not miss his ass one bit, this is even better than Hines Ward shuffling off to the old folks home. Next two happy fun day landmarks will be Polamalu and Roethlisberger, in that order.
