From Schefter:

49ers will use the tag on Safety Dashon Goldson and the Cardinals will use the tag on Calais Campbell.

He's also saying that the Chiefs will likely tag Bowe (which I think a lot of people figured this would happen).

Well if he's willing to sign a deal that has no guaranteed money, then it must be true.

so bowe's gone and wallace is a non-starter (he'd cost a pick)... no confirms on grubbs, grimes, or the other WRs yet though (VJ, DJ, etc, and i'd take a flyer on the other moss too).

Grimes and Grubbs are going to be very tough to get

Manningham says he's 75% sure he'll be with some other team next year.

Good for him. Hope it's not with us. I think he wants to get paid.

For one thing, he is a human being. Of course he wants the most money for his work. That does not make him greedy. It makes him stupid to sign a contract for a team that went 2-14 the previous season for a lowball amount because of some misplaced sense of loyalty to a team that isnt even being "loyal" to the qb that turned the franchise from a cellar dwellar into a contender for the super bowl each and every year.

In short, just cause he wants to see if he can get more money or get into a different situation doesn't make him greedy.

I would take a look at Castillo if he's released, I've always liked him, a high motor type player.
