You know, prior to the SB - when I figured Denver was a shoe in - I thought Decker should go to the Seahawks and become their #1, then he's got a real chance at winning back-to-back rings with different teams. Well, we all know how that turned out this year. With Tate proving himself to be a complete hypocrite in less than 5 weeks, I can totally see Decker going to Seattle.

Too late. News reporting that he just went to the Jets...

From Manning to Geno. What a downgrade. 5 years; $36.25. Guess it is all about the coin ladies and gentlemen.

Even though I dislike Tate cause he is a hot-dogging d-bag, I am not sure he is a hypocrite. It sounds like Seattle wasn't that keen on keeping him, and once the Lions made the offer, he probably figured why not. Considering he's not even that good (but hell, I could catch 50 balls playing with Megatron drawing double and triple coverage all day), it is hard to blame him for accepting an offer that good.

As for Decker, what a dumbass. If he had gotten close to 10 mil a year, like was rumored he might get, then okay, but I gotta believe that other teams could have offered him just as much, yet he picks the Jets to go to? His career is dead in the water now.

There's a few things we don't know:

- How much were other teams offering?
- How much of Decker's Jets contract is guaranteed?
- Is the Jets contract front-loaded in some way.

I agree this looks bad. He signed to play with Geno Smith for not very much money. But we don't totally know why.

My brother told me he read (possibly on twitter, so who knows how reliable it is

) that Decker's wife really wants to live in NY. Sounds like a dumb reason, but if you've ever seen his wife, I'd probably do what she wants me to do, too.

That Eagles offense is gonna be scary. McCoy, Sproles, D. Jackson, Maclin and Cooper is a nightmare of collective skill position players for DCs to prepare for.

I sometimes think the agents and players union push the players into bad situations because they don't want contract values subdued in any way.

All I know is I'm glad we got him back.

Upon further review, the Broncos won't be in cap hell in a few years like I originally assumed. Elway is doing a great job at managing the cap, while making sure the future isn't being mortgaged. Keep in mind that, assuming he retires in the next couple years, Peyton's salary will be coming off the books, so that will be a huge number off the cap.

I'm gonna guess the Panthers have some tricks up their sleeves for getting Cam Newton, you know, someone EXPERIENCED to throw the ball to.

After cutting Steve Smith and some other losses in free agency, who the hell do they have left?

jammindude · « **Reply #195 on:** March 14, 2014, 10:30:39 AM »

Seahawks are rumored to be interested in re-signing Sydney Rice after cutting him. Another rumor is that they have their eyes on Steve Smith....

I don't think there was ever any doubt that we needed some bigger targets for Wilson. If Harvin is the center of attention, he's going to get KILLED.

I don't know much about Smith, other than he's talented enough to put up some decent fantasy numbers. Is he a big target, or another little squirrely guy like Welker?

KevShmev · « **Reply #196 on:** March 14, 2014, 10:32:13 AM »

I want Steve Smith to go to the Saints so he can face the Panthers twice a year and we can see all of that blood and guts he was talking about.

That aside, Smith is still good, but not really a number 1 anymore. If he catches on as a number 2 somewhere, I think he can get back to approaching 1,000 yards and scoring 6+ times.

RAVENS SIGN STEVE SMITH!!!

Signing him, while re-signing Dennis Pitta, Eugene Monroe, Jacoby Jones and Daryl Smith, is a hell of a job!

Rapoport reporting that Smith canceled a trip to New England because he was so impressed with the Ravens!

I did the same thing. Jaw dropped but it's so well done.

Edit:

After the 4 game suspension 3 year 17 mil.

Panthers have lost all of their WRs and half of their secondary. And they aren't doing really anything in free agency.

They won't be worth dick next season.

ReaPsTA · « **Reply #205 on:** March 15, 2014, 07:02:51 AM »

According to overthecap.com, the Panthers only have 4.5 mil in cap space. Poor salary management has come back to bite them.

Jaq · « **Reply #206 on:** March 15, 2014, 07:36:27 AM »

Yeah, they'd just found their way out of the wilderness and looked really good, and bad salary management is going to undercut them big time.

They spent a lot of money on those RBs that their coaching staff never used enough or correctly.
