I think this will be easiest way because I know they are a lot of deals that went down and I dont think they all deserve their own separate post. So here we go....
WINSLOW TO THE BUCS- On Friday, the first big deal went down with Kellen Winslow going to the Buccaneers. I like this deal for the Browns because they get rid of a guy who I dont believe wanted to be in Cleveland and I truly believe you can find a reliable tight end pretty easily. It also helps the Buccaneers because they havent had much offense production especially at the tight end posistion but then again, you have to deal with a guy who proclaim himself as a solider.
DAWKINS TO THE BRONCOS- More articles on the Broncos to come in the upcoming days but they signed a thirty-five year old Brian Dawkins to a five year deal worth around 19 million. Granted, Dawkins is a beast and one of the best safeties in the league although I would be upset if my team gave a five year deal to a guy whose 35. Doesnt make sense to be at all and trust me, the Broncos are the most confusing so far in the Free Agency season.
BROOKING TO THE COWBOYS- Keith Brooking an 11 year starter and three time Pro-Bowl will now be a Cowboy. He inked a deal for three years and I am assuming he will be filling the role that Zach Thomas left when he retired after this season. Not a bad deal for the Cowboys, he had 100+ tackles last year and helped Atlanta get to the playoffs. He also is a good influence in the locker room.
CANTY TO THE GIANTS- Chris Canty got a huge deal from the Giants who are in need of third defensive lineman and with Osi Umenyiora probably going to retire soon, the deal made sense. He was rumored to go to the Packers so I am sort of sad we missed out on Canty whose a huge defensive end at 6'7
SCOTT TO THE JETS- Bart Scott followed his former defensive coordinator Rex Ryan to the New York Jets signing a six year 48 million dollar deal. It always seems the Jets do all the right things in the offseason and this is a great decision by them. Scott knows how Ryan's defense works and he is a good leader in the locker room.
TAYLOR TO THE PATS- Fred Taylor is know the newest member of "Running Backs ending their career in Boston." It seems every year the Pats bring in a new 30+ year old running back and usually he has great success. I hope Taylor does too, I have always been a fan of his and wish him the best of luck.
Thats all for now, the big deals will get their own articles but we will probably do this once every two weeks to keep everyone updated.
