Man, I hope this isn't true. It's only being reported by Fisher's group and repeated by others like Vela, so hopefully the are wrong.
Yeah the rumors are that the secret team is the Raiders. Wouldn't really surprise me.

If a team doesn't want to be named, I'm guessing they would say No.

Of course Rosenhaus is the agent, so you really can't believe a word out of that guys mouth.

That wasn't very secretive. Saw the Raiders interest in him reported the other day on one site.

Jesus. Karl Klug was a deep sleeper type guy I thought might be worth it. My God, we are really going to get shut out of FA on the DL.

Rosenhaus isn't exactly a Goof Son favorite. I believe the last time we signed one of his clients, it was Terrell Owens.

At this point, let's hope we get the draft cards submitted in time.

In what universe is Brian Orakpo worth 8 million a year with 13.5 guaranteed?

13.5 guaranteed is really all you need to look at. It's more then I would have given him but I don't think a guarantee in the 8-10 range would have been unreasonable for him.

In a universe where you have a shitton of cap room and need to get the Horton/Lebeau pressure defense after opposing QBs. If they do what I did in the Mayock and take Leonard Williams they could be pretty stout.

God damn, I understand being frugal since over-spending in FA can be irresponsible, but doing nothing is just as irresponsible.

They are selective, take one guy and specifically target...like they did with Julius Peppers. It was precision, in and out of the market.

What Dallas is doing is not the same thing. They are waiting for the players to get desperate and hope there is some talent that underestimated their market.

The Packers model is amazing. I think it's something like one player (Peppers) on their whole team has played for another team in their careers. They take player development to a different level.

I just noticed that Junior Galette is still available. I would make that phonecall.

The New Orleans Saints appear likely to bring back their top pass rusher, Junior Galette, after converting his roster bonus to a signing bonus on Monday – though it’s still unknown if he could face a possible NFL suspension after being arrested on a domestic-violence charge that was later dropped.
