Shouldnt heat up for a few more days but any info is interesting at this point. Feel free to add any tweet, news story or rumor you see. Except from Incarcerated Bob, happens eveytime. Will do my best to keep up as much as possible. Few to get things started...

@ProFootballTalk
Saints or Cardinals the likely destination for Falcons LB Sean Weatherspoon http://wp.me/p14QSB-9IS4

@BSO
Report: Jeremy Maclin Wants $11M Per Year, Eagles Offered $9M http://******/1EqXCbJ via @thacover2

@OmarKelly
I keep hearing Suh to Miami is a done deal, but not hearing it from the right people. When I do, I'll sound the alarms. Until then, NOT DONE

@OmarKelly
But IF Steve Ross does sign Suh, adding the elite defender to the Dolphins, it will be his first major victory in the NFL.

@RapSheet
The #Chargers are making a hard push to keep CB Brandon Flowers, and indications are they’ll be able to. Deal isn’t done yet, though

@OmarKelly
Now that Kareem Jackson is off the market the Eagles have to their attention to another CB. I BELIEVE Byron Maxwell is going to Jacksonville


@JosinaAnderson
Source: The #Colts, #Texans, #Raiders, #Dolphins are among teams that made preliminary inquiries on impending UFA SS Da'Norris Searcy today.

@CharlesRobinson
League source says with the #Jaguars likely to miss on targets Suh/Cobb/Murray, tight end Julius Thomas will become a major priority.

@CharlesRobinson
A league source says the #Eagles have made safety Devin McCourty a top priority. #Patriots still want him back.

@GeoffMosherCSN
Report: Texans targeting Jeremy Maclin

@OmarKelly
I'm told there will be some surprise teams bidding on Suh at noon, and all of them know they need to come in high to beat the Dolphins.

@AdamSchefter
Texans reached a 5-year agreement with Derek Newton, per league source.

@AlbertBreer
As @RapSheet said, Chargers are among number of teams in the mix for Suh. Pricetag could wind up in the $18M/year range, per involved clubs.

@AlbertBreer
... So San Diego is one of the teams interested in Ndamukong Suh, but maybe not THAT interested. All wk, signs have pointed to the Dolphins.

18 million a year for Suh just seems insane. I know he's about as big an impact player as you can get on defense, but my goodness. That's QB money.

- According to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press, the Lions have turned their attention to trying to re-sign DT Nick Fairley.

- Rand Getlin of Yahoo Sports reports that the Eagles are willing to free agent CB Byron Maxwell over $10 million per year to sign with them, which would be the top of the market in terms of salary.

- According to Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports, the Bears, Jets, Giants, and Jaguars have all shown interest in Bills free agent DE Jerry Hughes.

- Bryan Bulaga Seeking $7-$8M Per Year, Jaguars, Bucs, & Commanders Interested http://******/1NvJDnE

- Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reports that Chiefs franchised OLB Justin Houston is “very upset” with the team and the belief is that he will actively solicit an offer sheet from another team.

The Colts signed veteran guard Todd Herremans to a one-year deal.

The Vikings and 49ers have reached out to Brian Hoyer. The Jets and Texanshave also expressed interested in Hoyer as a starter.

@Jeff_McLane
#Bills and LeSean McCoy agree upon a new 5-year contract once trade with the #Eagles is finalized. More here: http://po.st/o16XbN

KC S Ron Parker could be one to watch for Commanders. Bargain guy. Drawing some interest from teams. @Russellmania980 also mentioned him

Reports: Chargers, Eagles interested in Broncos guard/tackle Orlando Franklin http://wp.me/p14QSB-9IST

@Jeff_McLane 2h2 hours ago
#Eagles are definitely involved, per two NFL sources. RT @phinphood9: any news on Orlando Franklin? Or will Eagles be priced out

@CharlesRobinson 2h2 hours ago
The two outside suitors for TE Julius Thomas are #Seahawks (who tried to get him at trade deadline) and #Jaguars. Jags can pay more


@CharlesRobinson 2h2 hours ago
#Bills are expecting to keep Jerry Hughes. #Jaguars are his richest outside suitor, but it sounds like Buffalo is intent on getting it done.

In football news, TE Anthony McCoy agreed to a one-year deal to stay with the Seahawks.

Jeff_McLane: details on LeSean McCoy's new 5-year contract: He gets $26.5 mil guar, a 1st year $16 mil total with $40 mil overall.

@tarikCSN 1h1 hour ago
I've heard there's mutual interest between the #Commanders and pending UFA safety Brandon Meriweather. Something to monitor.

Oakland might be putting together a D-line that features Terrence Knighton and Jared Odrick. Consolation prize for no Suh.

@ProFootballTalk 1h1 hour ago
Colts interested in Frank Gore, too http://wp.me/p14QSB-9IT5

@ProFootballTalk 1h1 hour ago
Cap numbers for LeSean McCoy: $5.5M in 2015, $7.675M in 2016, $8.875M in 2017, $8.95M in 2018, $9.05M in 2019.

@OmarKelly 1h1 hour ago
Dolphins have moved onto signing CBs and safeties. If they're smart they sign Antrel Rolle. Better than seeing him in New England.

@OmarKelly 1h1 hour ago
And as I warned you, Suh's signing might lead to Clay's exit. Dolphins can't afford to pay Clay $6-7M a year when capable replacements exist

@CharlesRobinson 1h1 hour ago
Not sure it's news at this point, but Darrelle Revis is down to #Patriots or #Jets. Water is wet. Fire is hot.

About $154 in total contract value negotiated by agent Jimmy Sexton in past few hours. Not bad. #Cobb #Suh #ShowMeTheMoney

@JasonPhilCole 1h1 hour ago
Two sources indicating TE Julius Thomas is just about done/signed in Jacksonville

@CharlesRobinson 1h1 hour ago
As I said yesterday, #Lions were making Nick Fairley a priority with Ndamukong Suh on the way out.

@DanGrazianoESPN 1h1 hour ago
My sense on McCourty is that Giants, Eagles are both in the bidding and highly motivated, Pats still hopeful of keeping him.

Other RB deals don't change #Cowboys parameters w DeMarco.

Cowboys hope to re-sign Sterling Moore despite not tendering him http://www.star-telegram.com/sports/nfl/dallas-cowboys/cowboys-corner-blog/article13021241.html…

@RavensInsider
Sources indicate strong mutual interest between Torrey Smith and 49ers; nothing finalized one source called them frontrunner among suitors

Freep Sports ‏@freepsports 1h1 hour ago
Per @davebirkett, the #Lions offered Ndamukong Suh $17M/year and $58M guaranteed. Dolphins topped w/ roughly $19M/year and $60M guaranteed

‏@caplannfl 1h1 hour agoFeeling I get on Torrey Smith and #49ers (following up last night's info): Unless $$ is too rich for them, they'll get a deal done.

@caplannfl 1h1 hour ago
#Colts and #Texans also have interest. But both teams are evaluating other WRs as well, sources said.
