Recommended Posts

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the start of the “Legal Tampering Period” for the 2024 NFL Free Agency Period. Teams may now start negotiating with players whose contracts are expiring on Wednesday at 4pm EST when the new NFL League Year starts.


Some big names have already decided to stay put and sign contract extensions with their current team.

Chris Jones - 5 year 160 mil 95 mil guaranteed 

Baker Mayfield - 3 year 100 mil 50 mil guaranteed

Mike Evans - 2 year 52 mil

Jaylon Johnson - 4 year 76 mil

Justin Madubuike  - 4 year 98 mil

Dalton Schultz- 3 year 36 mil

Kevin Dotson - 3 year 48 mil

 

We have already had a 1 trade 

QB Mac Jones traded from New England to J-Ville

 

Let the money be slung around like crazy begin!!

Definitely don’t hold your breath on that!! They have already started walking back that phrase line.

Nah man, if they don’t extend Dak or Mike, then this is it - all or nothing, I believe! Haha

The #Eagles and Pro Bowl guard Landon Dickerson have agreed to terms on a 4-year extension worth $84M base, $87M max value, source said. He gets $50M total guaranteed and a $20M signing bonus. The highest-paid guard in NFL history at $21M per year.
The deal was done by his agents at @_SportsTrust.

The #Bears have agreed to terms with RB D’Andre Swift on a three-year, $24 million deal, sources tell me and @RapSheet.

After a career year with the #Eagles, Swift heads to Chicago to be a big piece in Shane Waldron’s offense. Deal negotiated by his agent Trevon Smith.

So, WTF is the point of waiting until Wed at 4:00 pm if deals are being done today????

Because the league already knew that teams were tampering leading up to the start of the new league year (when existing contracts expire). They just didn’t want to persue the penalties because it was pretty rampant. So NFLPA and League Office agreed to give teams and agents/players 3 day grace to tamper.

 

However, contracts can not be signed and submitted to the League Office for finalizing until after the New League Year starts which is 13 March @ 4pm EST.

So then, for all intents and purposes, FA already began.

And what are we doing???

Duuuuuuuhhhhhh, I dunno!
