Jason Pierre Paul is going to get $1 million a year for each finger that he has.

Sean Smith is a corner and someone is going to way over pay for him.

Steelers rarely ever do anything of any substance in free agency.

Skins won't do much of anything unless it's at CB given how thin the secondary is right now. They just dumped a bunch of salary but $20/$29 mill freed up is going to Cousins. McCloughan wants to build through the draft so I'm not expecting a ton of activity from the Skins this week.

Fitzpatrick is #4? Good lord. Teams are still willing to pay him to throw a football? Not sure I'd trust him to mix the Gatorade. Oh wait.. He had a good contract year? Shocker.

Texans signed QB Brock Osweiler and RB Lamar Miller.

Now it's time for them to have another shitty draft.

both are huge improvements over Hoyer and Blue. I don't think they're built for a deep playoff run, but it could be a decent year for them.

at least osweiler doesnt have big shoes to fill in houston as he would denver.

he was probably like "do i want to be compared to elway and mannings standards or david carr and matt schaub?"

muh Raiders have done good:

Osemele (Ravens) - a road grader who will be a very expensive guard or a top tier LT either way he's a bully

Irvin (Seahawks) - I thought Trevathan from the Broncos would've been the lb they signed (definitely not complaining) he'll join his former Seahawk teammate Malcolm Smith

Smith (Chiefs) - this is the one the Raiders really needed. w/old man Woodson retired a db was high priority. while smith doesn't get a lot of int's; qb's don't throw his way

still in the hunt for an rb and a safety.....
