Mega-Merge: 2010 Free Agency Rumors and Reports Thread

LOL, glad to see we've made a cowboys fan happy.

Casey Rabach is mediocre and they overpaid him by a heck of a lot - if it was still the salary cap era. Not really sure what to think in these uncharted waters.

I am not sure he was overpaid. They brought Wiegman in yesterday and could not agree. So I would not be surprised if he signs for more $ than Rabach.

Had to look Clifton up to see who he was...

The Redskins have scheduled a free agent visit for free agent LT Chad Clifton on Friday.

It's a brilliant pursuit by the Redskins, who are willing to spend way more than Green Bay and are in desperate need for blind-side help. Clifton can still pass protect efficiently and offers extensive zone-blocking experience. The Redskins are installing the same system under new coach Mike Shanahan.


Sounds good to me, but I'm worried about if we still draft Okung after getting a decent FA LT.

I wonder if BA and MS think Albert is an asset to the team or a big headache that they need to try to fit somewhere, especially now that they are looking at the 3-4. I am guessing the latter.

Well no matter what they think they are paying him 32 million in 14 months and he is still the most dominant Defensive lineman in football.

I think Shanahan is confident in his ability to manage a personality like Phat Albert.

Sounds like we've lost Peppers, but Dansby sounds like a strong possibility:

Free agent Karlos Dansby indicated in an ESPN interview early Friday that the Redskins are not out of the mix to sign him.

"Washington is definitely a place I'm looking at," he said. "My gate is wide open right now. I'm going to take every visit." ESPN's Adam Schefter and SI's Peter King both report that Washington is taking a wait-and-see approach in the first wave of free agency. It's possible that Dansby is using the Skins idea to boost his market because Dan Snyder is usually so aggressive.

How about the Jets lining up Cromartie and Revis on the corners? Whew...that's a tough combo.

I think Cromartie's dominant days may be over and I have heard that he can't tackle (one thing that Rogers is very solid at). I know this, he is going to get plenty of chances because after last year the choice between throwing at Revis or Cromartie is a no brainer.

Yay, LT Chad Clifton should be a Redskin by the end of the day:) Anything is better than what we use to have.

Whoever the the person is of charge of player personnel with the Jets over the last three years is doing a solid job. I know some luck is involved when picking players for your roster, but they have a solid team/roster.

I don't know how his "best" days are behind him and he's only 25. I guess we'll see.

why can't i find any stats for Clifton for 2009? ESPN's player page search doesn't find him, wiki has no stats, and ProReference seems to stop at 2008?

weird.
