He is ruining the NFL. Nothing will change because the league is ABM. It's watered down and hitting hard is frowned upon now. May as well just put flags on the players now.

Goodell is also going to cause a strike/lock out. He proved that he can and will abuse his power with bountygate and the players won't sign a new CBA unless the commish agrees to a neutral arbiter. His ego won't give up that power easily. Only commish to suspend a player a full season and have it over turned.... twice. I still don't understand how that doesn't get him fired.

Well the Mara family undoubtedly love him and he makes sure to keep the spotlight on the most popular teams as far as the media goes (ala ESPN the magazine) I can just imagine how much he'd suck if either NY team was any good this year. He enforces penalties on teams that broke no written rule (Dallas and Washington) he penalizes another team for doing (even though I agree it was wrong) what most teams probably do, but won't admit it. Goddell is slime IMO and I probably just made real slime mad at me for linking the two.

Bucs sign Evan Dietrich-Smith, 4 years only 7.25 mil gtd. really good signing.

 

[cajunrevenge]

Wow that's cheap. Thats less than 1 year of what they are paying Carl Nicks to do nothing.

 

[Bj1133]

Peanut Tillman coming back to the Bears. I like what they've done so far this off-season. Still need another pass rusher and I think Jared Allen would be a great fit

Pack sign JPep.

3/30.

Woah.

 

[Bj1133]

Peppers can still be productive, but that is too much $$$ for what he will give you

Pack sign JPep.

3/30.

Woah.

Very little guaranteed, and very cuttable after year one.

Relax.

He will be cut after this year, no chance he sees a third of that money.

I just woke up when i saw it on rotoworld.

I figured it wasnt 3/30 total.

Probably a ton of incentives.

 

[Heyward]

Browns sign Ben Tate, 2-year deal.

 

[cajunrevenge]

Panthers sign Roman Harper. Subtraction by addition.

 

[zitothebrave]

Edelman back to the pats.

 

[zitothebrave]

Also did anyone see maybe the best signing of the offseason with the Colts getting Nicks for 1/3.5. Can't get much better talent for much cheaper.

 

[TURBO]

Edelman back to the pats.

Really happy about this one.

Was hoping Pats may take a chance on Nicks, but I dont think he will ever get back to what he was

who will Cam throw to?

Best signing????

He's constantly injured and has been very underwhelming the last 2 yrs.

He's constantly injured and has been very underwhelming the last 2 yrs.

And it's been rumored that he has wanted to quit ....

I said maybe. Positive one it assumes pretty much 0 risk. 3.5M or whatever is nothing in reality. And Nicks has been a 50 yard a game receiver as a number 2. If he does that in Indy, that's a big boost for them. Having 3 deep at WR is a huge improvement over 2 deep. If he sucks they're out basically nothing, if he rocks they have one of the better WR corps in the NFL. If he's in between he's still worth way more than what he signed for.
