NFL Wheelings and Dealings

[Celtics_Champs]

Free agency starts in 50 minutes and there have already been some hot rumors and movement

Cromartie to the Jets

Peppers could be heading to the skins.

Browns are trading Corey Williams to the Lions as I write this

PHI will be minus one of their QBs by the end of the weekend. Wish I knew which one

Peppers to the Skins seems like a done deal, which means the Bears are going to overpay Kampman. Sounds like Antrell Rolle is heading there too but I think ARI will make a late push to keep him.

Jake Delhomme got released. He could wind up in Cincinnati very quickly. And no, CAR is not trading for Mike Vick--if they do it is against the wishes of their coaches.

Are the Skins playing a 3-4 or 4-3?

I think he's a better fit with his hands on the ground but I've also heard that they are making the switch.

They've sort of waffled on it. If they get Peppers they'll play 3-4 a lot more. Don't forget Orakpo is an OLB at heart.

Ic, do you see the pats making any moves?

I think they'll be in the RB market but I think they'll sit out the initial wave and get guys cheaper later on. Ladell Betts makes sense.

I've heard they've sniffed at the Lions about Julian Peterson, but that will wait until draft day, if at all.

Tribune's Vaughn McClure reports that Julius Peppers will visit Halas Hall later today, today being Friday. Deal could be imminent.

Julius doesn't like to travel, so that should be taken as a very good sign for CHI. They're not going to win a bidding war with Danny Snyder though.

Chester Taylor to visit Bears on Friday

Antrell Rolle looking like a Giant

ARI and CIN talking about Boldin

Lions talking to Dunta Robinson right now but I've heard he prefers to stay in the south

Lito Sheppard wants to go to New England, per Sirius NFL radio

Antonio Rodgers Cromartie was traded to the Jets for a 3rd (could become a 2nd) pick in 2011.

Interesting trade. Cromartie had a down year, it will be interesting to see if he gets picked on with teams avoiding Revis. An overrated, yet play-making CB, opposite of an elite cover corner. Seems similar to when the Raiders got DeAngelo Hall.

Schefter -- WR Nate Burleson to Lions on 5-year deal and Redskins meeting with Packers OT Chad Clifton tomorrow.

[Icness]

The morning:
--Seattle is going after Aaron Kampman
--Dunta Robinson will be a Falcon any minute now
--Jaguars are hotly pursuing Kassim Osgood
--Broncos are stocking up on linemen, with Rex Hadnot and Justin Bannon. They are talking to Mark Tauscher too
--Redskins top target is Chad Clifton
--Tampa will chase Willie Parker

The Corey Williams trade and the imminent signing of Kyle VDB in Detroit all but kills their trade interest in Glenn Dorsey, per a defensive coach. It does not mean they are not going to draft Suh or McCoy, however.

I don't even know what the Skins are doing. It's 9:30 and Julius Peppers isn't a Redskin? WHAT IS GOING ON? I don't even know what to do with myself.
