Packers | Team will likely extend deadline for Favre's roster bonus
Fri, 17 Mar 2006 00:02:44 -0800

Tom Silverstein, of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, reports the Green Bay Packers will likely extend the deadline for QB Brett Favre's $3 million roster bonus. The bonus is due Monday, March 20, but might get pushed back while he considers retirement. The terms of the contract state he would become an unrestricted free agent if the bonus is not paid, but both sides have an understanding that the deadline will be delayed while Favre decides his future with the team.

Bears | Team to visit with Griese
Fri, 17 Mar 2006 05:36:49 -0800

Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports the Chicago Bears plan to visit with free agent QB Brian Griese (Buccaneers) perhaps as soon as the end of the weekend. If he signs with the Bears, Griese would begin as the No. 2 quarterback behind starting QB Rex Grossman, but eventually might push him for the starting job. Griese still is rehabilitating his left knee after tearing the ACL and MCL in an Oct. 16 game against the Miami Dolphins. He is expected to be ready for training camp but would have to pass a physical.

Lions | More about Harrington's upcoming release
Fri, 17 Mar 2006 05:48:06 -0800

Nicholas J. Cotsonika, of the Detroit Free Press, reports Detroit Lions QB Joey Harrington left Detroit in January after the 2005 season thinking he might need a fresh start somewhere else, even if it meant giving up millions of dollars and accepting a backup job. When the new coaching staff came in and the Lions showed him support, Harrington was caught off-guard. When he walked into the Lions' Allen Park headquarters last week for "quarterback school" with offensive coordinator Mike Martz, he just got the feeling the damage was done. He couldn't buy back into the idea that he could lead the Lions to victory because the team chemistry was too bad. He expressed his concerns, and the Lions agreed to let him go. Harrington is expected to be traded or released by the weekend.

Man if we didn't sign Todd Collins, I'd say grab Gus Frerotte. He was a fun player... funny player too. :p

That Guy · 03-17-2006, 01:44 PM

it'd be kinda embarassing for him to come back though...

That Guy · 03-18-2006, 01:48 AM

-Ramsey to the jets for a 6th round pick (rd6 pick 4)
-Lions gave mccown a 2 year deal

Packers | Signs point to Favre returning
Fri, 17 Mar 2006 17:41:12 -0800

Rick Braun, of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, believes Green Bay Packers QB Brett Favre will return for the 2006 season and is just looking for a reason to return to the team. He feels that if Favre really was going to retire, he would have done so by now. Favre has gone about this offseason with his normal routine of golfing, hunting, and mowing his lawn.

Ravens | Team may wait until after NFL Draft to pursue a QB
Fri, 17 Mar 2006 20:13:46 -0800

Jamison Hensley, of the Baltimore Sun, reports the Baltimore Ravens have to decide when to pursue another veteran quarterback. They can wait another month to see what happens to Tennessee Titans QB Steve McNair or begin to pursue free agent QBs Kerry Collins (Raiders) and Brian Griese (Buccaneers) right now. According to a league source, the Ravens have discussed the possibility of not adding a veteran quarterback until after the NFL draft, which is the earliest the Titans would consider cutting McNair. There is not a clear consensus within the Ravens on either Collins or Griese, the source said. Also, there's no guarantee that the Titans will cut McNair.

mcnair isn't getting cut, i'd pursue collins ASAP as he's the only clear starter left and he'd be pretty cheap.
