The Oregonian newspaper, located in a quaint town just north of Little Rock, AK, is reporting that former Carolina Panthers QB Matt Moore has signed with the Miami Dolphins. A source tells the paper that it’s a two-year deal worth $5 million, that can be pushed to $7.5 with incentives. So now, the pundits are [...]
According to Jeff Darlington, a trade has been completed between the Miami Dolphins and New Orleans Saints for Reggie Bush. And Bush has now agreed to a new contract with his new team to complete the move. “The early-morning negotiations that leaked beyond 2 a.m. have resulted in an agreement today between the Dolphins and [...]
A source tells PFT’s Mike Florio that the Carolina Panthers have agreed on a deal with defensive end Charles Johnson. The 25-year old DE got a six-year, $76 million contract with $32 million guaranteed. $30 million is in the form of a signing bonus. Wow. That is an absolutely huge deal for a guy who [...]
It didn’t take long for the Los Angeles Lakers to find a replacement for Phil Jackson. Not too long after guys like Andrew Bynum and Lamar Odom were thoroughly embarrassing themselves as they got rocked by the Dallas Mavericks, the Lakers have agreed to a contract with former Cleveland Cavaliers coach Mike Brown. “Deal is [...]
Jeremy Shockey was bounced from the roster of the New Orleans Saints a few weeks so that the team could avoid paying him $4.7 million this year. And apparently, the Carolina Panthers have an affinity for oft-injured tight ends who run their mouth too much, because they signed him to a one-year deal. According to [...]
With league transactions ceasing tonight at midnight barring an extension of the CBA, the Washington Redskins were able to slip in a fairly big signing right at the zero hour. According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the ‘Skins signed former Rams safety O.J. Atogwe. It’s reportedly a five-year, $26 million deal, but who really knows [...]
The Oakland Raiders have made some head-scratching moves over the years. And sure, some have worked out. They drafted a punter in the first round in 1973, but it turned out that it was Ray Guy. Their first-round selection of Sebastian Janikowski in 2000 looks great now as he’s been their kicker ever since. But, [...]
So maybe he just wanted a new house. We all jumped to conclusions when Denver Broncos CB Champ Bailey put his house up for sale recently. We thought at his age, with the price he’d command, that a rebuilding Broncos defense wouldn’t want him. We were wrong. As always. “We are thrilled to announce that [...]
Actually, we don’t think they had anything to do with it. But, how great would that be if WikiLeaks was the first media outlet to break the news of Rickie Weeks’ new contract? What if Julian Assange was Weeks’ agent? Anyway, you may have heard by now that the Milwaukee Brewers have signed 2B Rickie [...]
The New York Yankees apparently have taken exception to the notion that the Philadelphia Phillies have built the best rotation in the history of baseball. As such, the Bronx Bombers are determined to field the most dominant starting pitching rotation in the history of 2003 baseball. With CC Sabathia already in place as the team’s [...]
The New York Mets are a mess. However, they do have some decent pitchers and R.A. Dickey is no exception. Yes, he was awful for a long time, but he came in for the Mets and did a really nice job by posting a 2.84 ERA. Today, the Mets rewarded his good season with a [...]
So much for the Philadelphia Eagles adding New Orleans Saints secondary coach Dennis Allen to their stable of coaches. Sources tell FoxSports.com‘s Alex Marvez that Allen will be the new defensive coordinator of the Denver Broncos. The Eagles had interviewed Allen, but we aren’t sure if it was for the defensive coordinator’s job, or to [...]
Johnny Cueto had an excellent season last year for the Cincinnati Reds. He was one of the reasons that the Reds were able to win their first NL Central title since 1995. I was going to make some reference about his team getting no-hit in Game 1 of the NLDS against the Philadelphia Phillies, but [...]
Former Denver Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels has been linked to several offensive coordinator positions this offseason, but most recently he was supposedly hot and heavy with Steve Spagnuolo and the St. Louis Rams. We heard not too long ago that talks had broken down, but they apparently picked up again, because he’s accepting the [...]
Several insiders are reporting that the Oakland Raiders have made Hue Jackson the next head coach. Jackson was previously the team’s offensive coordinator. “As expected Hue Jackson is the new coach of the Raiders. Contract finished,” ESPN‘s Michael Smith tweeted. We don’t know for sure who the next offensive coordinator will be, but Adam Schefter [...]
A New York Mets team source tells Adam Rubin of ESPNNewYork.com that the team is close to finalizing a deal with former San Diego Padre and current injury-riddled pitcher Chris Young. The deal will be completed pending an all-important physical. Young has proven that he can pitch at a very high level in the Majors. [...]
We found out this weekend that Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid was not telling the truth when he said Sean McDermott would remain as the team’s defensive coordinator. He was booted a couple of days ago and was made the scapegoat for what really had to do with injuries and poor defensive talent. But, [...]
There were reports of the New York Yankees interest in free agent reliever Rafael Soriano a couple of weeks ago, but then it got quiet. It’s not quiet anymore as the Yankees have signed Soriano to a three-year, $35 million contract. It’s a lot of money to pay, but the Yankees can afford it. Soriano [...]
This is interesting and we think this could be a great move for everyone involved. John Elway announced on Twitter that former Carolina Panthers head coach John Fox will become the new coach of the Denver Broncos. “Coach Fox is a great fit for us not only with his coaching ability but also with his [...]
According to Tim Brown (not the former Oakland Raiders WR) of Yahoo! Sports, the Texas Rangers have agreed to a deal with third baseman Adrian Beltre. The deal is reportedly done pending a physical. The rumors out there have this as a six-year, $96 million contract. That would be ridiculous. Yes, Beltre hit .321 last [...]
The Kansas City Chiefs have done something incredibly intelligent. They locked up their stud super weapon for the next five years. Yep, they nailed down Jamaal Charles with a five-year contract worth a total of $32.5 million (who knows if that’s really the truth), according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. $13 million of it is guaranteed. [...]
We knew that former Tampa Bay Ray Carl Crawford would get his dough. But did anyone think that someone would break the bank like this? Peter Abraham of the Boston Globe reports that the Boston Red Sox have agreed on a deal with Crawford for an MLB record-setting, seven-year, $142 million contract. It’s record setting [...]
The Chicago White Sox have reached a deal with first baseman Paul Konerko today, two sources tell Bob Nightengale of USA Today. It’s a three-year deal worth a reported $37.5 million. That’s not too bad for a guy who is almost 35-years old. He’ll get $12 million in 2011 and 2012, and $13.5 million in [...]
According to WFAN‘s Sweeny Murti, the New York Yankees and Derek Jeter have finally come to an agreement on a new contract. Per Murti, the deal will be three years for $51 million. “Jeter’s 3 yr deal will be worth around $51 million. 4th year option is less but contains many elements that will affect [...]
The Chicago White Sox added some power to their lineup (and strikeouts) by agreeing with Adam Dunn today to a four-year, $56 million contract. Jayson Werth cannot be pleased. We don’t know just now if the Sox are planning on using him at first base or as a DH. But, who really cares? They got [...]
