  Signing Juqua Parker to a deal worth up to 3 million over a year through incentives isn’t a bad idea. Parker is a solid nickel rusher who had 8 sacks in 2009. However, it appears the Browns will use a rotation of Parker and Frostee Rucker, who they signed…

  WR Donald Driver DOWN Driver had two knee surgeries in the offseason and is still not practicing. This might not be a big deal if he was 25, but he’s 35. Driver already started to drop off in production late last season and now he’s pretty badly hurt, not…

  WR Vincent Jackson DOWN I had Jackson lower than normal already due to the possibility that he might get suspended. Now he actually has been suspended, for 3 games. Add in his bye week, and he’ll be missing 4 weeks out of your 13 or 14 week regular season.…

  So Drayton Florence goes for 15 million over 3 years and Josh Wilson goes for 13.5 million over that same period of time. Something’s not right here. Wilson is a much better cornerback than Florence and the Redskins needed another starter opposite DeAngelo Hall. They got a great value…

  This is being reported as a 5 year 12 million dollar deal with 7.5 million guaranteed, but it’s not 5 years. It’s just 5 years to prorate the signing bonus. It’ll void after 2, presumably if Morgan does something like play at least 1 snap or something. This is…
