Here's another Free Agent Tracker it's from Footballsfuture.com

**HOU-TEX** · 03-08-2013

I just wanted to point out the obvious. There's going to be a smorgasbord of FAs this year. This low of a cap must be really beginning to hamstring teams.

Adrian Wilson was cut, Winston, Aaron Ross, both Landrys, John Abraham, etc.

It's being said that James Harrison will be cut soon too.

With as many veteran DBs out there it might help us in re-signing Quin

Money isn't growing on trees.
The stupid agents are going to try to push to be the first ones to get what they can.
Let the desperate teams overpay.

**HOU-TEX** · 03-08-2013

Atari Bigby's been cut too

I'd be happy if we would make an effort to get Dannell Ellerbe and Roy Miller.

greekdbag · 03-08-2013

Dolphins re-sign WR Brian Hartline to a five year deal for 31 mill with 12.5 mill guaranteed

Ellerbe is supposedly the Ravens' top priority at the moment

Yep, but his agent tweeted a while ago saying nothing's getting done and will listen to 32 teams in a few hours

I'd take him next to Cushing in a heartbeat. That's also one less urgent hole to fill in the draft. Still not sure about the Reed to ILB stuff.

Wow!

Damn Rosenhaus!

**Playoffs** · 03-09-2013

Steelers release James Harrison.

**HOU-TEX** · 03-11-2013

I must say, this new "legal tampering" window is ridiculous. Why even bother changing it from what it was? Tampering or not, it seemed just fine before this bullbutter

GP · 03-11-2013

We might be entering an era of NFL where the outrageous contracts for even the best free agent candidates come to a screeching halt.

Is this the beginning of RESTRAINT in terms of spending?

At some point, even the few teams that right now have gobs of cap space are going to eat up that cap space and find themselves in our position within a few seasons. Everyone will eventually be forced to restrain from spending.

This is going to be very interesting. Plus, IIRC, from what dutchrudder has been saying, this is the first year that teams have a MINIMUM threshold they have to meet in terms of cap spending. You can't just roll over savings, you now have to pay a certain amount to players--a certain overall percentage.

So a lot of these free agents might not fit anywhere BUT those less-talented cellar dwellers who are required to spend a minimum amount to meet the new rules.

**HOU-TEX** · 03-12-2013

I wonder if we'd be interested in him? He's better than what we have.....plus, it's my son's name too.

Adam Schefter‏@AdamSchefter

More cuts coming today: Panthers releasing LB James Anderson.

**Dutchrudder** · 03-12-2013

Looks like the Ravens came to terms with James Ihedigbo.

**HOU-TEX** · 03-12-2013

Not sure what the Vikes are doing. They're whacking players at positions they already have a need for.

BREAKING: #Vikings just released Antoine Winfield.

I think they want a National signing day event type thing. In the past there were a bunch of immediate announcements (teams had to "tamper" if your announcement is one min after midnight) so this is their solution. A 3 day Free Agent Kabuki dance.

**HOU-TEX** · 03-12-2013

Aaron Ross is going back to the Giants after 1 year with the jags

Quote:

Mike Garafolo‏@MikeGarafolo

CB Aaron Ross will be returning to the team that drafted him. He'll re-sign with the Giants after one year in Jacksonville.

Aso's about to hit the market. I bet he still lands a good deal

Quote:

Adam Schefter‏@AdamSchefter

Philadelphia Eagles will release former Pro Bowl CB Nnamdi Asomugha today.

*edit* Aso is now a UFA

Quote:

Aaron Wilson‏@RavensInsider

Eagles have now announced release of cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha. Flooded corner market now
