Aren't you uneasy about that statement? I mean how can you be optimistic with a FOSSIL at QB?

I don't know...

Redskins are going crazy in the free agency

super bowl for them next year.

No way... Brunell will look in the mirror this offseason and realize he's Mark Brunell. Which is a creaky marginal QB at best!

this is one of the most fucked up FA seasons i have ever seen .. man .. i can't believe how many players are being shipped around .

and this is to the city of Cleveland .. good luck with LaCharles Bentley .. they may put him on a pedastal as "the best center in the nfl right now" , but he also has a luggage packed with many false start penalties, and not knowing how to pick up a safety blitz.

ha yeah ofcourse I'm worried about Brunell, after a hot start he got worn out by the end of last season, and was a complete disaster in the playoffs. If the Redskins were to go on a superbowl run he would have to be in much better condition than he was last year, which I don't see how thats possible now that he's another year older.

Hope springs eternal though. And I always cheer for the veteran QB's in the playoffs anyways.

And I hear the Giants filled a gap at CB, now they just need to take care of their linebackers, and the NFC East will be on top of the league again.

Vikings trade Culpepper to Miami for 2nd rounder!

wow.

Brees signs with New Orleans!

things are rolling along today...

WOW...

Daunte with the fins... wow...

Drew Brees pulls the "Edgerin James Bonehead Sign of the Day" and signs with the Saints... Good Luck with the traveling circus...

So the Saints pick Ferguson or trade Leinart/Young down.

Miami is going to have a downright SCARY offense.

Look for Chris Chambers to completely explode next season, and Ronnie Brown will put up some great numbers now that the defense will have less focus on stopping the run.

Daunte was atrocious last year. I'll credit the new Rams coach for making him good when he was O Coordinator there the year before.
Fantasy football bust of the year.

Titans sign David Thornton, Kevin Mawae and David Givens.

Justin Hartwig leaves, we'll see Hopkins.

EDIT: Chris Hope, new Titan.

after losing his favorite target (and quite possibly the best receiver in the game), randy moss.

now - he has an equivilent in chambers.

Multiple 4 Int's games isn't merely missing Randy Moss...

And he's not the best WR in the game. No way after last year.

Saints i think have to take Ferguson if they stay at #3,giving them a great set of bookend tackles with Jamaal Brown on the right side

yeah I love the move for Daunte... very smart move...

Plus I get to see him twice a year now against the Pats, I've always liked Daunte's game, except when he makes stupid decisions and throws picks... but best move Miami has made since Ricky Williams!

At the time he left Minnesota, it would be hard to argue there was a better talent at that position. Plus, it left Culpepper without ANY weapons. Last year, their o-line was dreadful as well. Now, he has Chris Chambers, who has the physical talent of Moss, but also has his head on straight, and a Miami o-line that is MUCH improved than past years.

If he can get healthy, and stay healthy - expect the kind of numbers we saw from him in '04, when he was runner up for MVP behind Payton.

People tend to overlook the fact that during Daunte's peak in Minnesota, the Vikings were always one of the top 5 teams in running the football. Just take a look at the stats.

You could say that Daunte and Moss opened up the running game, but in reality Minnesota had an amazing offensive line that created huge holes for the runner. Daunte crumbled this year because Minnesota's running game was in shambles.

Browns signed Willie Mcginist.

He's old. Lets hope he has a season owr two left

Enough of the disingenuous rhetoric, please, about how Drew Brees signed with New Orleans because he felt at home with the Saints and was comfortable with the program that they are trying to rebuild. The fact is, Brees was left on Tuesday morning with nowhere else to go after he essentially failed the very rigorous physical examination the Miami Dolphins administered to him the previous day. Physical exams in the NFL are very subjective things, and the Miami medical staff felt that Brees' surgically repaired shoulder, although improving, wasn't quite far enough along for the financial exposure the Dolphins would have had if they had agreed to sign the former San Diego starter.

So, on Monday evening, with the medical evaluations in hand, the Dolphins, after determining that Brees and agent Tom Condon wouldn't reduce the contractual liability, turned their attentions back to acquiring quarterback Daunte Culpepper in a trade. Then, very early Tuesday morning -- reliable sources told ESPN.com -- Dolphins coach Nick Saban apprised Condon that Miami was out of the bidding for Brees. In fairness to Brees, Saban told Condon, the Dolphins would stay quiet about the results of the physical exam and the pending trade for Culpepper for a few hours. That would provide Condon and Brees, who had no negotiating leverage remaining with the Dolphins suddenly out of the picture, some time to complete the six-year, $60 million deal with Saints officials. In the end, the Dolphins simply thought Culpepper had a better chance of being on the field for training camp than Brees did.

"We're talking the quarterback position, right?" one Miami source said. "So what would you rather have, a guy coming off knee surgery or off shoulder surgery? You don't throw with your knee."
