Free agency has started, and the deals have been fast and furious. We’ve seen a handful of mid-tier NFL players change teams in less than 48 hours. Many of these signings will shape the 2012 NFL Draft. But which? Let’s take a quick look….
- Vincent Jackson to Tampa
Tampa needed a big wideout, they probably hold off taking a WR with a high pick now and wait on Benn to progress
- Redskins trade for #2 overall pick, sign Josh Morgan and Pierre Garcon
The Redskins will be releasing Jabar Gaffney and/or Santana Moss, and the Robert Griffin III era will begin
- Giants sign Martellus Bennett
They won a SB with pretty much no TE play… so take this as a upgrade
- Cowboys sign Brandon Carr, Kyle Orton
Cowboys looking to upgrade the defensive backfield and they are not done yet. They could still use a high pick on a corner, but DE is now more likely
- Brandon Marshall traded to Chicago
Marshall got into another “incident” in which people got hurt….
- Chargers sign Robert Meachem
Chargers may be looking to focus in on defense in this draft. Still need a pas rusher to emerge
- Colts resign Reggie Wayne
Wayne is a 10 year veteran and has a ring. He loves Indy and Indy loves him. He will love Andrew Luck
- Cortland Finnegan signs with St. Louis
Dont rule out St. Louis drafting a CB still, but WR looks like where they will invest some draft picks
- Saints resign Marques Colston
It was between Colston or Meachem to resign and we see who won
- 49ers sign Randy Moss
Randy Moss is 35 years old and coming off retirement, I don’t rule out the 49ers drafting another receiver to go with him
