NOt sure how long he's inked up for, but it says he's set to make 4.5 in 2009 and 4.75 in 2010.

In other news, I think that Denver signed both JJ Arrington and Correll Buckhalter. If so, thank you CB for all the years here. If only Andy would have run you more.

I think the birds will get the RB from Pitt (the college team). He seems like he'd be a great addition.

Lesean McCoy. He'll be a good back in the pro's. I, like many others, want Donald Brown from UConn. Give him a good line and he'll be a stud.

Didn't see this, if they get two years out of him, then I'm okay with it (still depending on how high the draft pick is).

My best guess for the discrepancy is that he was suspended for the year he missed after the motorcycle accident so that year must not have counted towards his contract. So his six year contract actually lasts for seven seasons.

I think too big a deal is made on the total amount of these NFL contracts. It's not like baseball and basketball where it's guaranteed money. It's year to year. I seriously doubt Haynesworth sees anywhere close to $100 million or Hall sees $54 million. Seriously doubt it.

Actually, in Haynesworth's case he will see most of it. He's guaranteed $41 million and gets $32 million in the first 13 months. Those numbers are far more significant than the $100 million.

Titans sign Collins for 2 years $15 mil $8.5 guaranteed.

Now they can dump Young AND Collins in two years. Hell yeah.

Bart Scott finally stopped BS'ing and signed. Jets had to throw in an extra year, but we've finally got a beastly linebacking corps and a guy who can cover tight ends.

From here I'd like to see them sign Jim Leonhard, Jabari Greer and a decent guard, then draft Heyward-Bey in the first round.

DH, the word is that you guys will get a 5th round pick this season and a conditional pick in 2010, either a 2nd, 3rd or 4th.

Yeah, just saw that on NFL Network. Even better. He'll work out well for you guys alongside Revis. If you can land Leonhard, look out.
