[quote]Giants WR Devin Thomas is going to be out "awhile" with a dislocated finger.
The bone broke the skin, which sounds similar to Andre Johnson's recent injury. Unlike Johnson, Thomas can ill-afford to miss a week's worth of practices. He was already facing an uphill battle to make the final roster. Aug 7, 1:50 PM[/quote]

Looks like after two years of fighting, Mankins get his deal...

Adam Schefter
Filed to ESPN: Patriots Pro Bowl guard Logan Mankins signed a six-year deal with the Patriots. So he isn't going anywhere after all.

Re: 2011 NFL Free Agency-Part 3
 

My arch-nemesis Adam Schefter reporting that the Eagles have signed former Giants WR Steve Smith to a one-year contract. He's on the PUP list but could be ready to play by midseason
