Around the NFL Free Agency Thread 2013

Merriweather played pretty well in the short time he wasn't hurt. If he can fight off the injury bug, I think he will be a serviceable stop gap.
Remember he only played half a game. We thought Gomes was going to be all pro after the New Orleans game.

I don't remember anyone claiming Gomes was going to be all-pro. That's like saying people thought Barnes was going to be all-pro. Gomes is just a typical backup, worth holding onto for depth. Anyone who thought he was going to be more than that was seriously grasping at straws.

"It's terrible, but he said he knows what happened and why it happened," said Magid, who received hundreds of emails from angry Broncos fans. "I know the people in Denver think I should be fired, but like I said [Friday], there were a lot of reasons for why it happened."


Yeah, we know why it happened too. You were a blundering idiot and thought you would con the Broncos into that 12 million or have him become a FA and get boat loads of money. Neither one came to fruition, hence why you are fired. Make no mistake about it, Dumervil is also a huge reason for this fiasco. He's one the declined the offer up until the last minute.

I thought he played more than that. Well, here's hoping for upside...

Don't know if mentioned in this thread but Chase Daniel GOT PAID...by Andy Reid!

What are they thinking?

Guess 10 million/3 years is the going rate for an undersized preseason superstar.

wow. that's almost as bad as the barwin signing in philly (i think he's a good player, though he had a rough 2012, but he got a LOT of money).

Read gets benefit of the doubt IMO.

Why? Mcnabb was good but who else that he had at qb was worth any thing? Vick? Foles? Kolb? All of those guys are not good QBs
