-- Saints Not a Lock to Sign Samuel --
Thu Feb 28, 2008 --from FFMastermind.com
The Times-Picayune reports internet reports that the Saints are the "front-runners" to land CB Asante Samuel don't appear to be accurate. League sources have disputed those reports, one of which characterized Samuel to the Saints as a "done deal."
-- Saints Cool on Vilma --
Thu Feb 28, 2008 --from FFMastermind.com
The New York Daily News reports the Saints, one of the early teams connected with Jets LB Jonathan Vilma, don't appear to be as hot for him as once thought. They have done some homework on Vilma, but from talking to people, the impression is their interest has cooled.
-- Michael Turner Could Take a While to Sign --
Thu Feb 28, 2008 --from FFMastermind.com
The San Diego Union-Tribune reports Chargers RB Michael Turner will be a hot commodity, but he could last a while, as teams eye a draft rich in running backs and try to bring Turner's terms down. Chicago, Detroit and New Orleans are believed to have the strongest interest in him.
I also thought this was interesting...
-- Packers Tendering Offers --
Thu Feb 28, 2008 --from FFMastermind.com
The Press Gazette reports an NFL source said the Packers will place the second-round tender of $1.47 million on DT Colin Cole, meaning they'll get a second-round pick if another team signs him and they don't match. The best guess is the Packers will put the low tender of $927,000 on RB Vernand Morency, which means they'll get a pick in the round Morency was drafted (third) if another team signs him and they don't match.
Colin Cole actually took Corey Williams job last season if my memory serves me right... The only reason Williams got his job back was because Cole got hurt. Why not take a look at Cole if both guys are essentially on the block for a 2nd rounder?
