Adam Schefner reported that Ray Lewis is not returning to Baltimore and the Cowboys have no intention on signing any big named free-agents. So Look for Ray to go the Jets along with Bart Scott maybe.

Don't know, he wants at least $10 million a year and I don't think he'll get that in Baltimore

Looks like I might have been wrong on Jason Brown. He may not be coming here after all.

Did you all hear that Ramsey might be replacing Rosenfels in Houston? It'll be the second time in his career that he replaces Rosenfels.

SS, is it true that Denver may be interested in Ray Lewis?

Stacy Andrews apparently going to the Eagles? Not positive on this one yet

Hadn't heard that, could be

Looks like Bart Scott is going to the Jets. I wonder if this means the Ravens will have enough money to keep Ray Ray.

they had enough anyways... i don't think anyone is begging to pay him 10mill... he's not the same player. just as smart, good leadership, but getting slow and injury prone.

Jason Brown just signed with the Rams.

All I can say about our offseason thus far is...... HIP HIP... HOORAY......HIP HIP.......HOORAY......HIP HIP.....HOORAY!!!!!!!!! Nice job FO. I know I've posted this multiple times. But after all the FO bashing that's gone on around here. I thought they deserved some props.

^ we always seem to agree lol...

With all these high priced free agents does this mean we are more likely to trade Rogers? I doubt we will be able to resign him and stay under the cap. Wouldn't trading him now for a 2nd to 3rd rounder be better then letting him walk next year?

We don't need to resign him. He's under contract. We hold all the cards as far as he and Jason Campbell are concerned.

I know we have both of them for another season, but Rogers is walking into contract year and is going to command big money next year. Wouldn't the smart move be to trade him and draft a CB instead of letting him leave after the season and get nothing in return.

He's still young and he's proven. I don't think it would be smart to trade him and draft another CB based on potential when we already know we've got a solid starter in place. I think what would be smart is to hold on to him this year, see how the whole CBA thing plays out, and if 2010 is in fact uncapped (as many around here think it will be), then we can pay him whatever.
