Red Zone’s Free Agency Rundown
Posted by jannelle on March 3, 2008


I am on the late, late ,late show with the blog and I have been trying to keep up with this year’s offseason moves. In my opinion, the Browns, Eagles, Saints and Falcons are the ones that are making sensible moves so far.
Philly got their man in Asante Samuel. The move will add more strenght to the Eagles saging secondary. The addition of Donte Stallworth will definitely make Cleveland better even playoff bound. The Saints are doing everything they can to make their defense stronger. With the addition of Jonathan Vilma, the Saints are well on their way of accomplishing their goal.
While those acquestions were great, I like Atlanta’s signing of Michael “The Burner” Turner the most. While Moss, and Marion Barber are receiving the most press in free agency, Turner is the steal thus far. While subbing for LT, Turner made good on the opportuniy given and now, he will be the starting RB for a team in turmoil.
A big WTF goes out to the Patriots though. Their D is old and Sameul was one of the few strong spots on that unit. NE did not franchise him, did not work out some sort of a deal before hand, and lost him to Philadelphia. They recently resigned Teddy Brucchi.
Now, the word is Randy Moss is frustrated with the Pats’ offers, and he is entertaining his options.
And this is all in the first week.
We still have to consider the Chad Johnson and McNabb issues.

NE used the franchise tag on Samuel last year, and NFL prohibits teams from using it 2 years in a row on the same player. They have no excuse for not using it on Randy Moss though….

You are right. It is no excuses for NE to be so damn cheap! Right now, the word is Moss to GB and ESPN said that Culpepper and Moss talked about being a package deal for somebody. I thought Culpepper and Moss had beef.
