Here is the latest version of the OTS: The 2012 NFL FA Edition!


RUMOR:

n.

A piece of unverified information of uncertain origin usually spread by word of mouth.
Unverified information received from another; hearsay.

Before I post ANY rumors, I want to say THANK YOU to and let Patty (over at PC and is in poor health) know she is in my thoughts and prayers. Her guidance, support and words has meant so much to me. I am praying that she'll be alright ASAP.

Also, I will try to post more rumors in this thread as the come my way since today will be a busy day for me, not just at work but collecting rumors.

I hear the Packers have some type of interest in the following players (non-Packers FA):

Wesley Woodyard-LB-DEN
Jeremy Mincey-OLB/DE-Jac
Red Bryant-DT-Sea
Josh Johnson-QB-TB
Mike Tolbert-RB-SD
Chris Myers-C-Hou
Brandon Carr-CB-KC
Anthony Smith-S-Ten


Look for Chad Clifton to be cut fairly soon. The Packers want/need the cap space.

A non packers rumor: Look for the Vikings to PASS on Matt Kahlil and instead draft a "skill position" player (Blackmon). More info to come out in a couple weeks.


More NFL Rumors:

The Titans will give Manning a virtual "blank check" and the owner, Mr. Adams, is hell bent on signing him. Also look for Hutchinson, Wayne, Garcon and possibly Dallas Clark to join Manning where ever he goes.

The Redskins will attempt to make Vincent Jackson the NFL's highest paid WR. They covet him almost as much as they coveted RGIII.

Buffalo wants to make a splash or 2, with possibly Mario Williams and V-Jax as the targets.

Minnesota likes Courtland Finnigan & Carlos Rogers and is in play for both.

Finnigan also has interest from TB, ATL and SF.

Seattle will go hard after Flynn and Mario Williams.

Sea, Cle and Mia are the 3 teams that Flynn will have contact from right away.

The Dolphins were told by Manning to keep everything quiet when it comes to him. They are waiting for an answer by him before they jump in on Flynn.

I will add-on to the rumors as the day/my time progresses & allows me to.

Side Note:

Did any else see this tweet by Andrew Brandt?

Andrew Brandt ‏ @adbrandt Remember chasing LaVar Arrington hard in 2006, was going to sign him along with Woodson. He opted for NYG, tore Achilles in week seven.



I remember getting toasted when I said they were going hard after him & Woodson along with Pickett. A key part to this story that got reported later was Favre calling Arrington and talking to him about GB. NO ONE believed me when i reported that then and it came out years later that Favre did "recruit" him to GB. Arrington choose the G-men because he wanted to stay close to his son, who was a baby/toddler then.

Thanks for these. Always fun to read even in the case they don't end up happening.

I've read similar things about Vincent Jackson and the Redskins elsewhere... they're gonna hand out another idiotic deal (remember Haynesworth?)... not that Jackson isn't a good player but he really shouldn't have the top salary among recievers.

Yeah that's true. But if the Bears want a star WR, they'll get one. Plenty of them in free agency this year.

I love rumors I would love Mike Tolbert can run people over and can catch out of the backfield.
