Interestingly, not much signing has happened

as of yet (in terms of players switching teams).

Usually by this time, the Skins have already spent about $30mm in bonus money . . . .

Free-agent lineman leaves Vikings for BuffaloBy Len Pasquarelli

Buffalo Bills: Despite all the talk of high-profile players landing big-money deals in the opening minutes of the unrestricted free agency period, the first veteran to change teams is a journeyman offensive lineman with a blue-collar background.

Ninth-year vet Jason Whittle, who appeared in 16 games for the Vikings with two starts in 2006, has signed a one-year contract with the Bills, agent Joe Linta said early Friday morning.

The deal includes a base salary of $720,000, and Whittle received a $40,000 signing bonus. The Vikings also discussed re-signing the 31-year-old Whittle, who could compete for a starting job in Buffalo, where the Bills on Thursday released 11-year veteran Chris Villarrial.

The versatile Whittle, who is joining his fourth franchise, has spent time at all five offensive line spots during his career. His résumé includes 125 regular-season appearances with 42 starts. Whittle started 14 games in 2002 and 16 games in 2004.

The former Southwest Missouri State standout has served stints with the Giants (1998-2002, 2004-2005), Tampa Bay (2003) and Minnesota (2006). He entered the league as an undrafted college free agent.

:laugh2:

I think he may be the lone one thus far.

No...checking the site, it looks like A. Thomas from Bmore was signed by NE as well. So two total FA signings so far. The pace is starting to pick up!

That is just a rumor.

But we love misleading thread titles.

I don't think it's been 100% confirmed yet.

That said, the pace will definitely pick up. But the pace has been a bit slower than what I remember of years past.

that has been corrected...the title anyways.

I hate FA its all about the money. They are just sitting back and listening to offers.

Agreed.

Maybe Danny-boy's plane crashed.

His ATM card is not working.

ES website must be going into extreme denial

johnny-on-the-spot.

My sources tell me that Quincy Carter is about to get signed by Indy, who is trading Peyton to the Montreal Alouettes for some pastries.

Of course, my source is a bagel, and too much Thursday night wine, so take it FWIW.

 

[Bryan8284]

Skins are working to sign every free agent this year, takes away from teams while all the players' careers are ended in that hell.

 

[YosemiteSam]

His ATM card is not working.

That happens when your salary cap (Washington Commanders) space is $-2.388 M :laugh2:

That explains why the bank has put a hold on his account. Danny keeps writing them rubber checks.
