Burleson also had such a bad year last year that I think he fell off the radar for some teams.

Man, it's no wonder the Vikings are always circling the bowl!

Thanks for the tender offer numbers, I hadn't seen those. I always use the NFLPA player database for salary info but with all the intricacies and loopholes of NFL contracts, it's hard to actually tell how much a guy is getting paid.
