Sembra che i Bills siano in procinto di firmare il linebacker dei Giants Kawika Mitchell.
Se dimostra di essere al livello dell'ultimo anno, e non di quello degli anni precedenti è un'ottima acquisizione per me.

Madieu Williams con un contratto di 6 anni ai Minnesota Vikings, che così trovano in Williams che Safety che cercavano.
Ancora non si sa come finirà la storia Justin Smith, che è stato a Minneapolis, ma che oggi è atteso a San Francisco.

La perdita di Kawika Mitchell, unita alla potenziale dipartita di Gibril Wilson potrebbe indebolire non poco la difesa dei Campioni del Mondo.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=a ... &type=lgns

Ieri sera era stato ufficialmente offerto per una prima ed una terza scelta, stamattina hanno confermato che l'accordo non era stato trovato ma che si sarebbe continuato a lavorare nei prossimi giorni sull'intesa e stasera è arrivata l'annuncio. Savage è passato da idolo a idiota in 3-4 ore... :D ...vabbè l'importante è che abbiamo tolto dal mercato il miglior DT disponibile.

EDIT: non è ufficiale la firma di Anderson. Gli insider hanno appena smontato per il momento le notizie dei media. Nella notte Panthers e Vikings hanno contatto l'agente del giocatore. E' stato trovato un accordo di massima, ma la firma non c'è ancora.

According to Adam Schefter of NFL Network, the Jags have reached an agreement with Porter on a six-year deal worth $30 million, with $10 million in guaranteed money. Porter was a chronic malcontent in Oakland, but he definitely has talent. A good Jacksonville offense will be better with him on the team.

Saints finalized a deal to acquire Jonathan Vilma Friday, sending a conditional 2009 pick to New York for him. The Saints checked Vilma out medically Monday, so they must be confident in his ability to recover from knee surgery. If healthy, Vilma is one of the premier middle linebackers in football. We don't know the terms of the pick, but it will be partly based on Vilma's play. Our guess? It's a third or second-round pick that can upgrade.

Grande acquisto dei Saints!

Crumpler a Seattle

The Seahawks are close to signing free agent TE Alge Crumpler, according to the Atlanta-Journal Constitution. He'd reunite with likely 2009 Seahawks head coach Jim Mora. The Titans seemingly weren't impressed with Crumpler after his Thursday visit. There's still reason to believe he can put up borderline TE1 numbers for Mike Holmgren.

C'è la firma anche per Jerry Porter, che lascia i Raiders che accasarsi a Jacksonville.

Si ritira, inoltre, Jeff Wilkins, kicker dei Rams.

E i Dolphins hanno quasi preso E.Wilfors di Jax, e il DT Starks dei Titans.

Praticamente il suo passaggio a Denver verrà ricordato solo per quella volta che umiliò Ike Taylor
segnandogli in faccia un paio di TD e costringendo in seguito Cowher a panchinare il suo shut-down CB.
