McNabb to the Vikings
Hasselback to the Titans
Haynesworth to the Pats
Bush to the Dolphins
Will Kolb be a Cardinal?

Haynesworth deal is a good one for New England...the only problem with it is that Albert Haynesworth is a POS. HE will either do something that will warrant a suspension from the league or Belicheck will tire of him and release him next summer...but the Redskins gave him up for nothing so its a win win for NE. I just don't see him working out there- to me he is a bigger liability then Randy Moss has ever been.
Same story with McNabb, the Vikings gave up nothing to get him so its worth a look until they are ready to move on with a QB who isn't closer to retirement. If McNabb plays like himself, the Vikings will make the playoffs and then he will choke the game away, much like he did every year for Philly.
Bush to the Dolphins....yawn.
Kolb is a perfect fit for the Cardinals...great deal for them any which wai it takes to get done...I have a feeling Philly will regret trading him at some point in the future. Vick's style will get him hurt and at some point it could be for a long period of time...but its a worthwhile gamble for sure.

I will be interested to see who offers big Leonard Davis a contract and for how long...consistently was beat by "weaker" pass rush opponents last year and was even benched at times for journeyman Montrae Holland...I am glad to see him gone and out of my hair.

Or he could be Scott Mitchell v2.0

Well Kolb is off to Arizona. The Eagles got a great deal for him-- DRC and a 2nd round draft pick.
Word is that the Eagles will bring in Vince Young to back up Vick-- tha makes sense as well.

Ocho to NE, Bush to Miami, Sproles to NO.
Fantasy is going to make my head explode this year. 4 weeks until my 3 live drafts.

I like the Titans QB choice from what was out there...What most people aren't recognizing is the Matt and Jake Locker are friends and have worked out together for a couple of years (so I read)...I think this makes the mentoring process better since the Titans see Locker as their future. Plus, if the season goes bad early (like most people predict), it would be less drama to get Jake out there in some games. I still feel that if there was no lockout and they had OTA's, etc., Locker would be "given the keys" from Day 1. I still have hope that the Titans will be competitive to being around 8-8, 9-7 at best...

Good point-With the lockout rookie QB's are even more unprepared than usual. They literally are just opening up their playbooks this week, and I have to think few of the Rookie QB's will play in the 1st half of the season.
Mike Munchak is one of North East PA's favorite sons. Lots of people up here are rooting for Mike and the Titans.

^Makes it funnier that Newton may start for the Panthers. Wow that team is going to be worse than last year (didn't think that was possible).

Especially considering Cam didn't exactly run a pro-style offense in college. He has all the tools, but it should be interesting watching him get acclimated to the pro game.

Yeah, I'm guessing his throwing will be the issue.
Was just discussing on local car board to a Panther fan, he thinks they have the talent to make playoffs this year. I explained I'd be shocked if they won 3 games.
For fun it would be good for the Panthers to run the Triple Option, their personel is setup for it that's for sure.
Also in my fantasy research, it may be possible for the Redskins to be worse than the Panthers on paper from what I see.

The Redskins should be quite bad. It looks like they are ramping up for the Andrew Luck sweepstakes.

Quite surpised by this move. Speculation is that Samual is on the block now-- since the Eagles don't care about LB's, they may be looking for a DL or OL along with a later round pick.

Eagles sign Big Bad Ronnie Brown and RT Ryan Harris to one year deals. Two more quality pickups for the birds!
