[JBell]

Well it's a good thing we drafted Tyron Smith.

Eagles just signed Jason Babin.

We're told that the Commanders are closing in on a deal for Cullen Jenkins. Not done yet, though.

A 31-year-old journeyman who cashed in on one good year after 7 subpar ones.

He'll be playing under the same coach in Philly who many credit for his success in Tennessee (Washburn). Didn't get a whole lot of guaranteed money, so if he's a one year wonder, Philly gets off the hook easy. Solid pick-up.

Was just going to post this. He got his ring now he wants the money. I really wanted him but obviously he doesn't care about winning going to Washington

He's from Washington.

Superbowl and then go back home to play and retire, who can fault a player for that. Plus the money.

He played for Philly in 2009 and got 2.5 sacks. He's going to have a tougher time playing in the nfce.

For the most part the Commanders haven't overpaid this offseason. I know it'll take a long time to kill the reputation they have, but one step at a time. I think he could get a deal somewhat close to what they'll give him in a couple other spots.

.....he's older, injury prone and.......well now he's going to be on the foreskins...where OVERPAID FA's go to die......see Bruce Smith, McFlabb, Fat Albert, etc.....best of luck!!

 

[Mash]

Would of loved to have Jenkins...but I wouldnt overpay for him....and it seems now the market states that average players are getting overpayed.

Philly has made some solid moves......I just dont understand Arizona...there not making the playoffs and now they give up a CB and a 2nd rd pick for a unproven player like Kolb?

Robbery

What, you mean in the two days since teams have been allowed to agree to terms? Yeah, pretty much nobody else has, either.

Brandon Stokley Backtracks, Won't Sign With Commanders, According To Agent

Jul 28 9:32a by Joel Thorman


The Washington Commanders have been busy in free agency acquiring receivers. They started off re-signing WR Santana Moss to a three-year deal, then traded for WR Jabar Gaffney and agreed to terms with WR Brandon Stokley. That made 14 receivers on the roster, which seemed like a lot.
You can now strike that down to 13 receivers. According to Stokley's agent, he won't be signing in Washington citing "too many WR's signed."

Watch for the Vikings to pursue Braylon Edwards after losing Sidney Rice


@JuddZulgad JuddZulgad
One WR to keep an eye on in the free agent market when it comes to Vikings is Malcom Floyd (San Diego). Hearing there's interest.



haha looks like minny needs some wr's
