So, Johnson will be an option for Philly, Tampa, Chicago, and Minnesota. This should be good.

Johnson is apparently on 17-20 teams watch lists at the moment according to the Cinci radio this morning.
Also some discussion coming out of Philly is saying Eagles are going to remove Johnson off their watchlist they don't want to spend the time competing with that many teams for a player that they don't even know if he can convert to 3-4.

Good.. Shut the Doors Fumblehall!

Looks like Shields is going to already/re-signed, seems like a lot of money to me, but I reckon they used a lot in the signing bonus just to keep the cap down.
BJ Raji and the Packers are also enterring into the final steps of negotiations that is looking like he will resign with the team.
Apparently TJ Ward is about to get offered a fatty contract from someone because the Eagles are looking elsewhere yet again; we've now turned our attention to former Raider & Panther safety Mike Mitchell.
Newer Reports indicate Mike Neal linebacker out of Greenbay is a top target for the Eagles, he converted to OLB last season and made a strong case in their 3-4 D to fit into our system.
Hehee
As expected from earlier today, Michael Johnson will not be an Eagle, he has entered negotiations with allegedly 4-5 different teams willing to pay him top dollar of his asking price, @Dolph'sZiggler your Raiders are said to be one of them from what I can understand out of this really fast speaking mother fucker from Cinci radio.

as expected. sign Johnson, re-sign Houston, draft Clowney or Donald and the D line can go from a weakness to a strength
What are you hearing about the Houston thing atm?
They were talking about it earlier and said he's starting to get really frustrated with them on how they're handling his negotiations.. they are like refusing to give him a proper raise or something. I couldn't catch the full story really other than the fact he is getting frustrated with their process.

things definitely don't seem to be going well. He will test the market and see what his value is. I still think its 50/50 he will be back.
Out of Philly Sports radio:
Two teams said to be the top dogs in the hunt for Champ Bailey; Philadelphia Eagles & Atlanta Falcons.
Eagles are one of the teams that would like him to switch over to the Safety position if signed.
imo I like the signing if it happens, I know it's really just a name and Champ is older now but I think moving to the Safety spot could be good for two years in the way we run our defense and more importantly is no doubt an upgrade from Chung/Allen & Coleman the men we currently had at that spot. Not to mention the veteran experience is always good to have when you're trying to raise young premier DBs like Brandon Boykin & Earl Wolff and potentially Clinton-Dix/Pryor or Dennard with our first pick in this draft.

Eagles had him on their watchlist before but as of a few hours ago it looks like;
imo I think he's going back to OAK too, idk I see the Titans as another team to make a nice offer to him.
It was anticipated but they finally did it;
http://espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/story/_/id/10578545/antonio-cromartie-released-new-york-jets
He's bound to find a job quick, I wonder if Oakland still has as much interest in him as they did a few years back when they were supposedly going head to head with the Jets on offers.

Read a rumor the Raiders value Roger Saffold over VEldheer smh. Gonna sign Saffold to an 8 mill per year deal and Arizona may pick up big V for 7.5 per
close the door Reggie

^Good stuff.
I'm still imagining Oakland signing Freeman over Schaub, then taking someone like Boyd in the middle rounds of the draft (unless someone falls). Schaub just seems like a horrible fit for the speedy personnel over with the Raiders. Him going to the Jets seems pretty likely but who knows what you're getting with Schaub? Will he help teach Geno, or will his lack of confidence be poisonous? Also Oakland is friggin' ridiculous to pay Saffold over Veldheer, that HAS to be a smokescreen.
Redskins picking up Talib would make me lol like crazy. We all can see Aqib phoning it in a mile away.
Nicks to his home state of Carolina where he's beloved, can be a big help, and get a fairly small contract seems like a really good fit for both sides. The suddenly Blue front office in Indianapolis will probably be the squad to overpay the hell out of Decker, while San Diego picking up Nicks just doesn't sound right, somehow.
Some reports say the Vikings are pretty screwed, because Tampa won't pass on one of the three QB's if one is available at 7. New regime isn't sold on Glennon. Rightfully so.

Nicks is going to be playing for pennies if he wants to to Carolina or SD. Neither team has cap space.
