Re: Latest FA news from KFFL
I have a feeling the Skins already have deals in place with Hackett and Florence, as evident in this PFT post.
One of the rumors making the rounds at the Scouting Combine is, as reported by Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com, that the 49ers are negotiating (four days early) with defensive end Justin Smith.
Other players who, as the rumor mill goes, might already have deals include receiver Bernard Berrian, cornerback Drayton Florence, and receiver D.J. Hackett.
Then again, it could be that their agents are merely trying to drive up interest by spreading the word that a deal is done.
For any players who have not been released by their current teams, discussion between new teams and the players (or their agents) constitute tampering. Virtually everyone does it, primarily because no one ever gets caught.
