Bears agree to terms with Martellus Bennet, will sign this evening.

Nice signing for sure.

I know they thought about him at the trade deadline, but SJax to the Pack? (close at least)

Rumors are now that Jax is throwing interest out there to drive up his price in Atlanta.

Any signs out there the Pack are looking to utilize free agency to improve the team?

Looks like the Bears signed LT Jermon Bushrod Saints 2 time Pro Bowler.

"Bushrod developed in New Orleans under new Bears offensive coordinator/line coach Aaron Kromer."

Looks like Wallace is signing with the Dolphins.

As a Dolphins fan, I like this move. Yeah its a lot of $$, but with a very good deep threat, possession receiver and slot receiver, Tannehill will have some nice weapons with which to develop. The beauty of the whole thing is that in two or three years, if Tannehill develops into a top 10 QB because of the weapons they gave him as he's maturing, they can sign him to a big deal then just cut bait on some of the money at WR and start over.

As a sidenote, while I like this plan, its also why its philosophically hard for me to get too excited about NFL free agency/trades. In the NFL, only guaranteed money matters, unlike baseball where teams have to live with all of their decisions.

Enjoy him, we certainly did, when he decided to show up and play

GB signs Jackson.

30 yo power back, should have first focused money on immediate d upgrade imo. Like some aggression from TT in fa though.

http://www.profootballcentral.com/2013/03/12/team-informed-steven-jackson-will-sign-with-green-bay/

needs to be further confirmed.

The D upgrade will come through the draft like it always has. I love this signing as long as its only 3 years.

Who's "we" in this situation? Marquette? Indiana? Kansas? You and Hoopaloop?

I think he is referring to LAA Angels. I could be wrong though.

Why did the Vikings let Percy go to SF 49ers. Dumb a$$es. If Kapernick gets better, check the Super Bowl for SF.

Would love to see Woodson go to the G-MEN. His talent would stay in the family (Packers and Giants household).

They let Harvin go to SEATTLE. And it is because the Seahawks gave them a ton for him. Rumor is that Woodson is in deep talks with the 49ers.

I'd be happy if the Packers could somehow wrangle Ryan Fitzpatrick for a couple million to back up Rodgers.

The Packers are interested and met with his agent yesterday. It is between the Packers and Atlanta per the journal sentinel. Nothing else has been confirmed as of yet. Also a good chance that Jennings comes back. The market is soft and it appears to be between the queens and Packers right now for Jennings.

Hope the Pack doesn't reach too far on this one. Very good player, but 30 yr. old running backs are near the end of their utility.

I also wouldn't reach too far on Jennings. If they can get Jones to sign an extension, I would rather spend the money elsewhere.

Agree, but he would fill a hole for a couple of years and he is stil a damn good back, over 1000 yards last year again for a crappy Rams team. I hope they do not over pay for Jennings either, I would rather see them spend the money on a safety or left tackle

GGGG · « **Reply #999 on:** March 13, 2013, 08:49:50 AM »

OK...according to some Vikings reporter, Jennings is asking for $10-11 M per year.

No way when Jones is making about $3.
