2011 NFL Free Agency: All Signings and Trades Through Thursday
2011 NFL free agency is cruising right along and none of it is even official yet. Things can't become official until tomorrow. And not only can players start signing, but players will be able to start visiting teams while they negotiate. That means things are really going to start getting crazy tomorrow! We are talking rumors and signings galore for the foreseeable future.
Thursday saw the first player back out of one of these handshake deals as Brandon Stokley decided the Redskins had acquired too many receivers for his liking, and he is back on the market. There may be more of the same before players actually ink their deals on Friday.
I tried to compile the most complete list possible using information gathered from ESPN and Pro Football Talk. Jump over for the list....

hmmm Floyd not exactly what i had in mind

I'd be all for it.
Plus if they are willing to add a receiver like Floyd it means they are ready to distance themselves from DHB I think.

This could be real interesting
Though the Raiders won the game against SD in Oakland anyway, Floyd completely touched them. He caught everything Rivers threw to him, including against Nnamdi and no matter how tight the coverage is. Al Davis saw that and knew he would want that on his side.
Your team is your child...You love it no matter what.
Did you guys hear Bruce Campbell failed his physical?
Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it.
yeah i saw that
I am not totally sure what that means, is he injured or fat?

They should be patient, haha.
They got their VD under control, didn’t they? Huh?
(Sorry boyz – at the game and a little drunk already. We still got Nnamdi right? No need for me to bash a Broncos fan out of spite? Cause the team we’re playing tonight is called the Broncos, and I’m eager to bash some of them. On principle).

all good man lmao

Broncos play Rugby
I actually follow Aussie Rules more closely I can actually attribute my Raider fandom to my Aussie rules team because when I first went over to the US when I was 5 my uncle followed the Rams and bought a Rams helmut at a sports store and I wanted one as well but I wanted the Black and White one because that was my teams colours (Port Adelaide). Ever since then i used to watch NFL with my Uncle when they used to show it late night on TV he used to tape it and he supported the Rams and I supported the Raiders.
There is the Rader history of Ozraider and yes Aussies kick ass at X Games. lol

My laws of fandom:
1) Any team called the Broncos suck donkey cock
2) Any team that wears red just sucks cock in general.

I suggest you leave the city of Brisbane while you can. There is a fair chance that we’re gonna torch this place in mourning.

NFL | Vince Young needs to clear waiver
Before any teams can contact released QB Vince Young (Titans), he needs to make his way through the league’s waiver process. That should happen around 4 p.m. ET Friday, July 29.
I saw that.
Weird. Lots of places reporting he is with the Eagles.

Training camp practice highlights, notes, quotes....Steve Corkran
It made me feel really good to read all of this…My team feels like a team again…Nice….Really Nice…
David Ausberry has been converted to tight end and I think that’s great too…He has very good hands and power and with Zack they are going to be a hand full for every “DC”…
Wisniewski received high praise from Jackson, especially for the way he held up against veteran tackles Seymour and Kelly breathing down his neck most snaps. This kid is going to be great…What a great attitude and he is going to punish some folks down the road….
Campbell said he feels more at ease this year, well let’s all hope that translates well to his game…If he can get his act together we have the talent on this team to win and win big…But I still say we need a “VY” on that roster too…
The clear-cut standout on offense Thursday was second-year receiver Jacoby Ford….Whatever “DHB” may have lacking this kid has…He is going to be very difficult to stop…Now if we can just get him a #1 to draw away the coverages he will excel….
I really like Wizzy
He has that look in his eye and seems very comfortable. Also love JC at the moment he seems very comfortable and ready for a big year.

This Really Sucks If True...
From PFT:
“Vince Young, cut by the Titans and unwanted by any team that has an opening at starter, has agreed to terms with the Eagles….”
I Could Wish It To Be Bogas But What Good Does That Do....Now Our Options At "QB" Are very Limited...
Vince Young, cut by the Titans and unwanted by any team that has an opening at starter, has agreed to terms with the Eagles, per Albert Breer of NFL Network. Young will sign a one-year deal.
It’s a great move for both sides. The Eagles need a backup for Mike Vick, and Young will benefit from the coaching that Andy Reid can provide.
Roy Williams has signed with the Bears
