  The Dolphins needed another linebacker inside next to Karlos Dansby with Channing Crowder gone and they get Kevin Burnett at a fairly reasonable rate, 5.5 million per year over 4 years with 10 million guaranteed. Considering linebackers like Quincy Black and Clint Sessions got 6 million over 5 years…

  The Raiders somehow got under the cap by restructuring Stanford Routt’s and Richard Seymour’s deals. I don’t know exactly how this happened, but I have a feeling it involves Al Davis using dark magic. Just a guess. With their new found cap space, they were able to outbid the…

  Kevin Boss goes to Kansas City to provide insurance for Tony Moeaki, who is injury prone. In his absence, the Chiefs didn’t get a lot of production from the tight end spot in 2011. If Moeaki is healthy, Boss fits in 2 tight end sets because of his ability…

Trade for Jets: Rex Ryan had been trying to get rid of Kerry Rhodes all offseason because apparently they had some clashes last year, so I like to see him establishing his dominance and continuing to establish the discipline in the locker room and, unlike Josh McDaniels, who is trying…

Deal for Seattle: Back in 2008, I mocked Balmer to the Seahawks with the 25th pick, as did several others. Balmer eventually slipped to 29th where the Niners drafted him. However, the Balmer era in San Fran was a colossal failure. With a mere 19 tackles in two years and…

  Langford has been a solid starting caliber player at 3-4 defensive end over the past few years for Miami. St. Louis runs a 4-3, which is a change, but Langford projects as a good fit for a wide 9 scheme. Langford didn’t manage a sack last season, but with…

  I was really surprised when the Ravens cut Gregg, who was only owed 3.5 million next year and can still be a competent nose tackle in this league. He’s 35 this season so it’s important this was only a one year deal, but they got him very cheap and…
