I'll try to keep this up to date on FA signings, contracts, and possible interest (though they tend to mention everyone and their brother as interested in every player) there'll be another thread for draft info when i see something worth posting there.

Cardinals | Team will honor Fitzgerald's contract
Sat, 23 Feb 2008 16:56:24 -0800
During an interview at the NFL Scouting Combine (http://www.kffl.com/link/183), Arizona Cardinals (http://www.kffl.com/team/6/nfl) vice president of football operations Rod Graves (http://www.kffl.com/player/17043/nfl) said he does not believe it was a mistake to structure WR Larry Fitzgerald (http://www.kffl.com/player/9047/nfl)'s contract the way they did. "There's not many of the players taken in the top three that actually go on to be two and three-time Pro Bowlers during their rookie contract. So Larry has earned the right to be where he is and I think the contract is a good one for us. It recognizes his accomplishments. It is what it is. He has earned the right to be where he is and we also determined that if we should be at this point, we'd be back at the bargaining table to work out a long-term deal that was a little more palatable for the organization." When asked if the team would swallow the contract if no extension could be worked out, Graves said: "Yes, we will."

just some WR news. stallworth is an interesting option, though he IS a tin can... fitz ain't happening, and williamson probably isn't worth bothering with.

Bears extend desmond clark (te) for two more years at a total of 5mill$
they also extended re-signed orton for two more years (who cares?)

denver post is reporting we're trying for chad johnson, but javon walker and jerry porter could be fall back options.

all three of those guys have had locker room issues recently, and walker's been injured too, so besides CJ, i'm not sure i'd want them... walker could be a huge steal, since his market value is dreadful right now and he could still be a 1000-1200 yard guy.

Hi, I'm Asante Samuel. Pay me $ 100M. Did you see my dropped INT in the SB that would've clinched a SB win and 19-0 season ?????
