The NFL Free Agency thread

[Legatron4]

If any mods don't want this as a thing, feel free to delete it. But Free agency begins at 1pm CT. So any signings can be grouped together here. Any predictions of who goes where? I say the first big move is Matt Forte to the Cowboys.

I didn't think signings could be done until Wednesday technically. Today just begins the "legal tampering" period where teams can come to unofficial terms with players or offer numbers.

 

[Legatron4]

Are you sure? I just saw on tv it starts today. I'm probably wrong.

I think teams can start visiting with players today but can't sign them till 4 o'clock on Wednesday , but either way , the thread is a good idea

Well maybe if @Prime Time doesnt mind, me or anyone else can put updates on offers to free agents here and use it for Wednesday as well. It doesn't matter to me.

Teams can make contact with certified agents of players beginning Monday at Noon EST. Contract negotiations may be conducted, however, nothing can be signed until 4pm on Wednedsday, March 9. The 2015 league year ends at 4p Wednesday, and the 2016 year begins at that time.

The Rams better agree to terms on our own real fast. If they all hit FA, we're fucked.

The Rams better agree to terms on our own real fast. If they all hit FA, we're freaked.

My hope is the guys they want back, like Barron for example, see the numbers coming in to be similar to what the Rams offered. So hopefully Barron at the least is locked up before the floodgates open on Weds.

EDIT: Hayes too!

I'm hoping that re-signing our own guys is already a done thing and we've just got to wait it out to do the physical signings

Players can resign with their current teams at any time. Likely if it was done, it would be announced. I know there are negotiations in progress for some players.

But we don't have to wait, right? We can sign them anytime. So I assumed if a deal was already done, it would have been completed.

Teams don't have to wait to sign their own FA.

That's fine by me.

 

[DaveFan'51]

My guess is our FA's are going to want to see how close other offers are to the Ram's offers before they sign on the dotted line! I'm Praying they all come back!!

Dolphins just traded for Eagles' Byron Maxwell and Kiko Alonso. Just created some need on an already suspect Eagles defense, and it reinforces the extreme unlikelihood of Miami getting their FA DE back.

Jason La Canfora "Continue to hear that Janoris Jenkins, with cap-needy teams like Oakland and Jacksonville interested, could land $14M per year on a long-term deal. The Rams may regret having only one member of their starting secondary under contract as it stands right now."

First off TJ and Tru are under contract so thats two out of four.

If Janoris somehow gets Reevis, Sherman, Peterson money good for him, but no way in hell am i paying that if im the Rams.

 

[Dieter the Brock]

"Yikes"
14 million...Oakland??
Good luck trying to pay Khalil Mack after paying out that kinda money
