Sounds like the Bears are bidding against themselves for Glennon and he could end up making 15+ million per season. Leave it to the Bears to not only find but also overpay the one guy who might actually be a downgrade from Cutler. Hoyer had a 98.0 rating when he got KO'ed last year, I don't think Glennon will match that.
It's no skin off my nose if the Chicago Team continues to suck.
When Mike Glennonâs deal is finalized with #Bears, itâs expected to be 3 years for an average of $14.5M, source says. Will still draft a QB

didn't see that coming.
from PFT:
The Packers were apparently able to keep one of the top pass-rushing outside linebackers off the market.
According to Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports, the Packers have locked up Nick Perry to a new five-year deal, keeping him from becoming an unrestricted free agent this afternoon.

The #Patriots are closing in on signing free agent CB Stephon Gilmore, source said. Means they will say bye to Logan Ryan.
Bears wanted to sign him, they are not happy with this.
Fukking nuts:
The expected price tag for free agent CB Stephon Gilmore for the #Patriots is slated to eclipse $14M per year, Iâm told. Hefty but worth it
With Perry gone, he should get some pretty good offers:
@RapSheet 44 minutes agThe #Eagles have released pass-rusher Connor Barwin, they announced.

That is just freaking insane to pay Glennon that kind of money. Decent QB sure but not good enough to command THAT much coin. But hey if the Bears want to suck up their cap money on moves like this I am all for it.
Sounds like Matt Kalil is headed to Carolina.
The Current Vikings Offensive Line is Alex Boone at Left Guard and ..... that's it. Hope Bradford gets that extension to afford the supplementary health insurance.
It's also a lousy draft for OL. Bradford's in some deep schit.
Maybe they can convert Letroy Guion?
Damn that lousy TT, sitting silently and re-signing Perry! 
From Chris Mortensen:
Kirk Cousins appealed personally to owner Dan Snyder for a trade but was basically told not to get his hopes up, per sources.
Their GM has been told to stay away from the facilities. He's been spotted in the DC area with a full ass beard and wearing sweats at places like Starbucks and Home Depot. Rumor is he's back on the liquor but no one is saying a thing. Now a QB that's been given a tag worth $25 million wants the eff out but they won't let him.
Well done Danny.
Bradford this year will be Archie Manning from years past on the Vikings. He will want to wear a red jersey in games.
Rick may end up giving Lang $10 million to play G. Leary just signed with Denver for $8.75 million per for 4 years. Lang is better than Ronald Leary.
The Texans have been informed by AJ Bouye's agent that he will leave the team and sign elsewhere.
And that's all there is to report.... waiting to see who that team is.
EDIT. Jax it is. Finalizing terms now.

This would be a decent DE signing for TT...he plays better in a 3-4 vs a 4-3
Bears are releasing QB Jay Cutler, per sources. Cutler asked for and was granted his release this morning. Now a free agent.
â Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 9, 2017
Jay would look good in a Whiner uniform. Fitting in many ways.
We all knew this day was coming. Still stings to see Jay go.
Really should be a Packer HOFer. Contributed way more then the Majik man ever did.
Packers offered the Bears a number one pick to keep Cutler. The Bears declined.

Chandler Jones's agreement with Arizona is 5 yrs, $83M. Gets $16.5M/yr and has a guarantee of $53M.
Not For Long
A few of highest paid players in NFL, as of like a week ago, were Tony Romo, Jay Cutler, Darrelle Revis, Adrian Peterson. Haircuts ahead.
â Andrew Brandt (@AndrewBrandt) March 9, 2017
Ian Rap reporting Jay, Jay could be a Jet-Jet very soon, there's mutual interest.
Thats a perfect place of suck to end up.
Dammit, was hoping he'd at least stay in the NFC
NY media is going to love Jay.

I'd rather have Cutler than Glennon.

I agree IF the price is right. But I doubt it is because of the FA signing frenzy going on right now.
If he is still available in a few weeks then it might be a good pick up.
Cleveland plans to give Kevin Zeitler a five-year, $60 million deal that includes $31.5 million guaranteed, per source.
â Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 9, 2017
Huge payday for the former Badger.
Cincy's OL loses their two best players. Ouch. Cleveland putting together a talented, but extremely high priced interior OL.
The Lions are releasing DeAndre Levy today, per a source.
â Dave Birkett (@davebirkett) March 9, 2017
If he has any gas left in the tank he's the kind of veteran presence I'd love to see on this D, again provided he's healthy.

Makes Nick Perry's deal seem like the dollar store. Jones is good but this is one notch below Von Miller money. Chandler Jones is no where near Von Miller.

I was thinking the same thing. But if the Browns are smart with their $100m in cap room, they could set themselves up well in future years. For example, Zeitler signed for 5 years $60m. But if they pay Zeitler $40m in salary/bonuses this year, then they have Zeitler for 4 years at $20m in future years. Do the same thing with 2-3 other young high priced guys and they've hit that salary cap minimum while stocking the team with young talent that will be cheap in future years, when they might actually be able to compete for something. Is there any rule against this? Seem smart to me so of course, doubtful the Browns are doing this.
He's closer to Von Miller than you think. It's more likely than not you are getting double digit sack totals out of Miller and Jones. Jones might consistently give you 13. Jones might consistently give you 11. But you're not getting cheated on the investment.
I haven't watched Jones that much but his critics of this deal said Jones isn't always that great against the run. He'll have moments where he's playing too soft
Perry put up very good sack numbers yes but he's usually also very good against the run as well. The Packers got a good player in both regards if of course he can stay healthy.
Dammit Cleveland. You spend all day doing non Cleveland like stuff building a really nice OL for the long haul. Then BAM!!!!!! You go and do Cleveland Brown things. Trading for Houstons second rounder in 2018 and Brock Osweillers contract. You realize you just gave Houston the greatest gift imaniginable, yes? Houston gets to erase Brock off their books entirely and all it cost them was a second round pick? Why in the **** would you do something like this?????
