Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
Teaming Tim Tebow with Mark Sanchez makes no sense whatsoever. One of them will be the back up and the other one will be the starter. As soon as Sanchez struggles or shows inconsistency, Rex Ryan will put in Tebow quick. It's all going to come to a continuing quarterback controversy.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
Has a single favorite landed a player this off-season? I mean lets look at this shall we?
Matt Flynn - Dolphins: Ends up with Seahawks Peyton Manning - Redskins and Dolphins: Picks Denver after narrowing down choice between Denver, Tenneesee, and San Francisco Robert Griffin III - Browns: Redskins "outbid" Browns for 2nd overall pick Tim Tebow - Jacksonville, New England, Miami: Goes to the Jets Mario Williams - Anyone but Buffalo: Goes to Buffalo Vincent Jackson - Redskins and Bears: Goes to Tampa Carl Nicks - Stay with Saints?: Goes to Tampa Eddie Royal - Redskins: Signs with Chargers Seriously can anyone think of one free agent that signed with a new team he was projected to go to?

But what is more fascinating and worth looking at is why folks made most of these projections: they were either made based on "connections"/networking or reputation, i.e Redskins land every Tier 1 (BIG ONES) free agent under the sun. Now, I think we did land RGIII precisely because Jeff Fisher might have had a subconcious inkling to help his buddy out, so for once, networking did play a role for us.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
Not sure, maybe Alex Smith but that story wasn't lacking it's own drama.

Re: 2012 NFL Free Agency Tracker
By trading for Tebow, the Jets are creating a situation that will allow their fans to crush Mark Sanchez's confidence. If Sanchez should have a poor game, Jets fans will boo him mercilessly and call for Tebow.
Jets management lacks even the slightest clue about how to develop a young QB. If I were an oddsmaker, I would say that there is a better chance that Tebow will finish the season as the Jets starter than there is that Sanchez will. |

I'd love to see Landry light up Sanchez in practice, trying to prove he's healthy...and both players end up with injuries...leaving Tebow as the starter.

Besides, Sanchez should worry more about his already-wrecked relationship with Santonio Holmes moreso than what Tebow is going to do to him...and he should start milking Sparano's brain on how to get better almost immediately.
