Browns | Jurevicius agrees to a four-year deal
Sat, 11 Mar 2006 14:49:29 -0800

Adam Schefter, of the NFL Network, reports free agent WR Joe Jurevicius (Seahawks) has agreed to a four-year deal worth about $10 million with the Cleveland Browns.

damn, if he was willing to move (which i doubted) he would have been a great pickup. 2.5mill per? that's peanuts to us. I'd assume this means that bryant isn't coming back unless he's cheap.

SmootSmack · 03-11-2006, 05:56 PM

Nice move by the Browns. I didn't think he'd move that far either

Frost · 03-11-2006, 05:58 PM

damn that sucks,, i've seen the guy play and for some reason he reminded me of coooooley always fighting for those extra yards

mcalderone10 · 03-11-2006, 06:01 PM

one of my coworkers is an eagles fan (i got a pic of him in a taylor jersey due to a bet from one of the skins games they won) said since jurevicious left philly he's watched him and says the dude is a beast def woulda been a great pick up it woulda pissed him off too

Packers | Contract update: A. Kampman
Sat, 11 Mar 2006 14:49:56 -0800

ESPN.com's John Clayton and Len Pasquarelli report Green Bay Packers DE Aaron Kampman signed a five-year, $25 million deal that included $11 million in guarantees to remain with the team.

he's worth it, but i don't think other teams would have really bid that contract up a whole lot over 25mill.

i don't think green bay could afford to reach the cap limit

THE NEWS
Restricted free agent wide receiver Brandon Lloyd has a new home. The Redskins acquired the disgruntled wide receiver via trade from the 49ers, sending their third-round pick this year and next year's fourth-round selection to San Francisco.

Our View
Lloyd finished last season with 48 receptions for 733 yards and five touchdowns but is a better receiver than his numbers suggest. The third-year receiver has been stuck catching passes from the likes of Alex Smith, Tim Rattay, Ken Dorsey, and Cody Pickett. In DC, Lloyd and Santana Moss present a very formidable receiver duo, and B-Lloyd's fantasy stock climbs significantly.

Here is a great link for all the FA action in the league

That Guy · 03-11-2006, 07:54 PM

JJ would have been fine. lloyd is better talent wise, i'm worried about his character issues... I guess we just wait and see if he starts shit here now that he's a skin.

do you try to bring in R'El still? what are the new contract numbers for lloyd?

Ravens | Team lands Pryce
Sat, 11 Mar 2006 15:26:19 -0800

ESPN.com's John Clayton and Len Pasquarelli report the Baltimore Ravens have agreed to a five-year, $25 million contract with free agent DE Trevor Pryce (Broncos). Included in the deal for Pryce is $10 million of guarantees.

they paid more money for a older DL guy than the one they lost. will he play DE or DT for them?

Vikings | C. Taylor signed
Sat, 11 Mar 2006 17:30:19 -0800

Mark Craig, of the Star Tribune, reports the Minnesota Vikings have signed free agent RB Chester Taylor (Ravens). Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Vikings | Leber signed
Sat, 11 Mar 2006 17:29:50 -0800

Mark Craig, of the Star Tribune, reports the Minnesota Vikings have signed free agent LB Ben Leber (Chargers). Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

they also got longwell. chester isn't exactly the a1 feature back you want and ditching daunte and B williams is a mistake, but they are making a couple decent moves... they seem to be shooting straight for the 2nd tier of FA though. Being cheap i guess.

That sucks that they got Leber. Not that I was hell bent on getting him but its nice to have options.

dgack · 03-11-2006, 08:59 PM

Taylor is a pretty decent back. Sure, he's no LT or even a Portis, but considering who the Vikes have... Brittle Bennett, The Whizzinator, and Less Is Moore... yeah, Chester is a huge upgrade IMO.

I'm fairly surprised the Ravens let him get away. Sometimes I think Billick is so stubborn he'd rather lose than give up on one of his "guys".
