2012 NFL Free Agency Thread

Dumb by who's opinion? I know this will be a shocker, but you aren't always right.

It was over him being a selfish ass fan over Cliff Avril saying he wants to hold out for money instead of signing the Franchise Tag.

Like, You didn't see me on here blasting Josh Scobee whenever he didnt sign the tag and is now holding out because he plays a dangerous sport.. his career can end at any minute.. This will prolly be Cliffs last BIG contract.. Why waste it?

& No, Im not always right.. but atleast everytime I say something.. I have a point behind it and it gets said.

Sione Pouha reached agreement with Jets on a new 3-year deal.

Lions restructed Stafford, Suh and Burleson's contracts.

Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press notes that Suh’s cap number was scheduled to be $12.8 million, but the Lions can cut that in half by converting his $9.25 million base salary into the league minimum and give him the difference as a signing bonus. Burleson’s deal saved about $2.17 million in cap space. The particulars about Stafford’s deal are not yet known.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

Either way thats going to hurt them CAP wise in a few years.

 

[.infamous]

Stafford and Burleson's saved up to 10 million in cap space i think i read also

 

[kam.]

the cap list i posted yesterday was with the franchise tags included. we were 11 million over and with these restructures we are probably under now more than likely. LAWLS!

Jags beat writer is reporting that the Jags have near 70 mill in cap space to spend..

[kam.]

[RipCity32]

Here you slam Lions fans when they say they are interested in a guy or they restructured deals so they have more to spend on someone and you sit back and laugh at them, yet you are going on about how the Jaguars are going to spend money and spend money and sign Mario Williams and a top WR and half of the other free agents available. I don't think many top WR's will be too interested in Blaine Gabbert throwing them passes....

You are such a hypocrite.

Lions don't have enough money to sign anybody.. Jags on the other hand, do.

I've backed off the signing a top WR thing since Stevie and Bowe are now off the market.. and more people like Gabbert than what you all here think.

Jags are expected to go very heavily after Mario Williams.. And Im not even being a homer.. its a league wide thing that everybody knows the Jags are going to target a DE, CB, and WR in FA. We signed alot of players in FA last year but its already reported we wont be THAT active.. but we will sign about 3/4 players.

I'm sure the Jaguars will sign a few guys, I'm not arguing that but who knows who it will be. The Lions definitely don't have much to work with, but I'm sure they could make something work if they wanted a guy bad enough such as Finnegan, it will be tough though. Lions will be depending on the draft more than anything.

 

[RipCity32]

I expect Tulloch back and possibly signing Finnegan. Rest is building through the draft. We don't need much.
