I didn't see anything for roster moves that don't pertain to the Panthers, so... here's this thread:

The Eagles released "The (former) Freak" Jevon Kearse today

good

underproduction and a major cap liability.

the eagles front office FINALLY made a good move.

lito shepherd apparently shoppin' for a trade.

rumor mill is beggin' for a lito/chad johnson trade

the bengals d sucks, and kevin curtis is basically the #1 wr in philly

srsly? he's a #3 anywhere else in the league.

just imagine how much better westbrook could be if someone could open up the passing game.

Coughlin got PAID, damn! 4 years, 21 million.

He had a season like Clint Hurdle from the Rockies. Didn't look like they'd make the playoffs and then they saved their asses.

ESPN's Power Rankings:
Quote :
"1 Patriots 16-0-0 A healthy Tom Brady and a happy Randy Moss make the Patriots championship contenders this season and for years to come.
2 Colts 13-3-0 They haven't had a lot of offseason turnover and they already were very good. Continuity means a lot.
3 Chargers 11-5-0 If the Chargers can get over their injury issues, they could be in the Super Bowl mix all the way to Tampa.
4 Cowboys 13-3-0 Felix Jones should help the running game immediately. But who will emerge as the No. 2 receiver? Patrick Crayton wasn't up to the task in late '07.
5 Jaguars 11-5-0 They sometimes get overshadowed by division rival Indianapolis, but the Jaguars have an elite roster and an elite coach in Jack Del Rio.
6 Giants 10-6-0 Teams other than the Patriots aren't supposed to repeat as Super Bowl champions. Will Michael Strahan retire? Can they compensate for free-agent losses at LB?
7 Steelers 10-6-0 A very strong draft catapults the Steelers into Super Bowl contenders. RBs Willie Parker and Rashard Mendenhall should be one of the best 1-2 punches.
8 Seahawks 10-6-0 New O-line coach Mike Solari stands out as the Seahawks' top offseason acquisition, perhaps allowing them to keep their edge in the NFC West.
9 Browns 10-6-0 The 2007 darlings face high expectations. The offense will score. Can the D, anchored by additions Shaun Rogers and Corey Williams, hold up its end?
10 Packers 13-3-0 This is an unpredictable team in the wake of the retirement of Brett Favre. Who will step up and make the big plays this year?
11 Saints 7-9-0 The offense already was very good. Defensive improvements will make the Saints one of this year's biggest turnarounds.
12 Vikings 8-8-0 If they settle on a QB, the Vikes could become a playoff team. RB Adrian Peterson is at the top of the list for MVP candidates.
13 Eagles 8-8-0 Last season, they hit their stride when it was too late. With a fully healed Donovan McNabb and an improved secondary, the Eagles could be dangerous.
14 Redskins 9-7-0 Too many questions: a new coach, young QB and a pair of rookie WRs. Hard to get a good read.
15 Buccaneers 9-7-0 They didn't make any splash offseason moves. But RB Warrick Dunn's return is going to help more than many recognize.
16 Titans 10-6-0 They didn't get as much help from QB Vince Young as they should have. But he's going to become good enough to carry the offense.
17 Cardinals 8-8-0 Ken Whisenhunt and staff changed the culture in Arizona. Kurt Warner provides top-notch insurance at QB. Depth along the O-line and on defense in general remain the question.
18 Panthers 7-9-0 The return of QB Jake Delhomme might be enough to get them to the playoffs. But there are no guarantees with Tommy John surgery.
19 Bills 7-9-0 Marcus Stroud turns 30 this summer and his starts have declined over three seasons. Will he be healthy enough to help the Bills in December?
20 Texans 8-8-0 They reached respectability in 2007. Improving will be difficult because their division is so tough.
21 Jets 4-12-0 An offseason spending spree upgraded the roster without answering the Jets' most pressing question: Do they have the right QB?
22 Ravens 5-11-0 Are the 2008 Ravens more like the 13-3 team in 2006, or the 5-11 unit last season? This is certain: QB play is key.
23 Broncos 7-9-0 This is the second-best team in the AFC West. That is an indictment of the division, not a pat on the back for this team, which has many holes.
24 Bears 7-9-0 Seems like ages ago the Bears were NFC champs. For better or worse, fans will have to endure another season of good Rex Grossman and bad Rex Grossman.
25 Bengals 7-9-0 If WR Chad Johnson sits out, the Bengals will suffer. If Johnson shows, he's a distraction. Neither situation is good.
26 Raiders 4-12-0 The Raiders' offense won't make people sick anymore, but their defense might.
27 49ers 5-11-0 New offensive coordinator Mike Martz provides credibility on offense, but head coach Mike Nolan still must prove he can manage the team more smoothly.
28 Rams 3-13-0 Quietly, Jim Haslett has turned the defense into a respectable unit. The Rams could contend for a playoff spot if their offensive line can keep Marc Bulger healthy.
29 Lions 7-9-0 QB Jon Kitna says it will be a disappointment if the Lions don't win 10 games this season. Perhaps he doesn't realize Detroit hasn't won 10 games since 1995.
30 Chiefs 4-12-0 The Chiefs' rebuilding project has begun, but it's unrealistic to believe they will become contenders anytime soon.
31 Dolphins 1-15-0 A rookie head coach and an unsettled QB situation add up to growing pains, even though the Dolphins have upgraded their talent base.
32 Falcons 4-12-0 New coach Mike Smith is the right guy to turn this team around, but it's going to take a few years."


First let's see if this looks like shit, because I just copied and pasted..and I don't think it's been posted anywhere. I'd say the Lions are too low, probably the Rams and Ravens are too high..and I'm just a homer but I'd knock the Panthers up a few spots.

Peyton Manning has knee surgery, out for about 6 weeks.

http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080714/SPORTS03/80714062/1100/SPORTS03

Quote :
"Peyton Manning underwent surgery this afternoon to remove an infected bursa sac from his left knee, and rehabilitation for the Indianapolis Colts quarterback could last six weeks.

That leaves Manning’s status for the team’s Sept. 7 regular-season opener against the Chicago Bears uncertain.

The two-time NFL MVP has started 160 consecutive regular-season games. He has missed only one play because of injury during his 10-year career.

Team president Bill Polian described the surgery as “routine’’ in a statement and added the medical staff expects a full and complete return to action in four to six weeks.

Polian said Manning had been receiving “conservative treatment’’ for an inflamed bursa sac from the team physicians since February. The treatment was considered productive until Manning began experiencing increased pain and early signs of infection, according to Polian.

The Colts report to Terre Haute for the start of training camp on July 24.

I think the Skins will get 2 good to great years out of Taylor. As a Bills fan I must say that I'm glad I'll never have to see him again.

So Devin Hester is holding out. I didn't know he was getting paid the league minimum. He definitely deserves more...but this comment is pretty ridiculous:


Quote :
""You should pay me like I'm one of a kind. It's like dating a girl. When you find somebody that is real special, you're going to do whatever it takes to keep her. You might cut back on what you're giving your mom to give her. And that's how I feel they should treat me."

Ok, I know D. Hester is a phenom at what he does, but damn that man is talking like a fool. Yeah, you might think that, but you never say it publicly.

With that said, pay the man!!!

So the Patriots may be bringing in John Lynch with Tank Williams going down for the season.

http://news.bostonherald.com/sports/football/patriots/view/2008_08_14_Jeff_Shoate:_John_Lynch_would_be_a_good_fit_for_Patriots/srvc=pats&position=5

I can see him coming in for depth. Probably won't get a starting position, but for depth and freshlegs to come off the bench during the game, and down the stretch of the season would greatly add to the Patriots defense. His knowledge, awareness, experience and physical ability would really give pressure to other offense. IMO opinion I think it would be a mistake for Pats not to pick him up. Can only benefit the team and scare the rest of the league.

So I guess nobody has posted that Chad Johnson is legally changing his name to Chad Ocho Cinco? I actually thought he would pull this off after he got fined last time. I love watching that guy.

^^^^^ all that for a freakin' football number?

I can see already being named (or nicknamed) Ace, and always wanting 1, or Trey wanting 3, etc. But this is a bit extreme. What a guy. wow.
