DT Tom Johnson on free agency: “I’ve got interest from (#Vikings to re-sign) I definitely would like to return but you just never know how free agency is going to unfold'' He'd take 1-year deal "I’m not looking for a multi-year deal I’m in a situation that I’m playing it by ear'
Vikings.com wrote:Vikings General Manager Rick Spielman announced last week at the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine that [Mike] Zimmer’s contract has been extended through the 2020 season.
Redskins acquired QB Case Keenum and a 2020 seventh-round pick from the Broncos in exchange for a 2020 sixth-round pick.
For his troubles, Keenum is getting a $500,000 "restructure bonus" on top of his $7 million salary. To facilitate a trade, the Broncos have agreed to pay half of that. Keenum has agreed to waive the non-guaranteed $10.5 million he had been owed. It is probably the best Keenum and the Broncos could have hoped for. As for the Redskins, Keenum is an improvement on Colt McCoy but not much else. It's a decidedly modest Alex Smith fallback plan. Keenum predictably crash landed last season after his magical 2017 with the Vikings. It is going to be a long year in Washington.
Is Alex Smith not coming back? It seems like an odd move for Washington to make.Pondering Her Percy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2019 10:09 pm Non-Vikings news: Keenum was just traded to the Redskins. Not a good trade for either side. Denver gets rid of Case and a 7th for a 6th from Washington. The redskins I’m guessing will start keenum until the rookie they draft is ready to take over. Denver gains next to nothing out of the trade. If I’m a Denver fan and just wasted money on Keenum and now wasting picks and money on Flacco, I’d jump off a bridge lol. John Elway doesn’t have a clue.

They are paying Keenum backup money at 3.5. He is a very cheap backup plan and was their only option really with how little cap they had and 20 mil already locked up in Smith.PurpleMustReign wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2019 11:40 pmIs Alex Smith not coming back?

You are obsessed with Case. You just cant let it drop, he got more wins in one season than Cousins will probably get in 2.Pondering Her Percy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2019 10:09 pm Non-Vikings news: Keenum was just traded to the Redskins.

And you're obsessed with commenting on my posts when you supposedly "have me foed". But either way thanks once again for bringing nothing relevant to this thread or board....PurpleKoolaid wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 3:16 amYou are obsessed with Case.

Smith's future is up in the air. It could be career threatening.PurpleMustReign wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2019 11:40 pmIs Alex Smith not coming back?

Who would trade for him.Pondering Her Percy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2019 12:32 pmI dont think we will just cut Griffen outright. I think they would find a trade partner before they just cut himStumpHunter wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2019 10:27 am It is weird to see two Vikings on the top 10 FAs list. NFL.com had Barr at 6 and Richardson at 9.
FAs the Vikings should look at before Barr or Richardson
Golden Tate
Roger Saffold
CJ Mosely
Henry Anderson (assuming Griffen is cut)

This is a huge get for GM Dave Gettleman and the Giants. They wanted to get rid of Vernon badly, and not only were they able to accomplish that, they got Zeitler in return, who graded out as Pro Football Focus' top pass-blocking guard in 2018 and turned 29 today. He has three years left on his contract as the league's third-highest paid guard, but Zeitler is certainly worth it. He'll slide in as a foundation piece for the Giants' offensive line. They just need a quarterback, among other things.
Raiders acquired WR Antonio Brown from the Steelers in exchange for third- and fifth-round picks.
Not only has Brown been traded, he has secured a new contract. Per Profootballtalk, Brown's total compensation for the next three years has increased from $38.925 million to $50.125 million, while his guaranteed money has gone from $0 to $30.125 million. In other words, he has done exceptionally well for himself. As for the Raiders, they cried poor with Khalil Mack and bailed on Amari Cooper but have decided to pay Brown. Coach Jon Gruden continues to oscillate between reload and rebuild. At some point, a coherent plan will need to formulate. The wisdom can be questioned, but there is little reason to believe 31-year-old Brown will remain anything other than one of the best players in the league in 2019. The trade compensation is hardly odious. Brown's problem will be his severe downgrade at quarterback. He will probably reach 1,200 yards for the seventh consecutive season, but Derek Carr won't make it easy.
