Wow. Jason Jones agrees to a one-year deal with Seattle. It definitely seemed like he'd be signing a longer deal; Jones must have been really unhappy with his offers.

Tom Curran reporting that the Patriots have no interest in Wimbley, and Gerry Dulac is reporting that the Steelers have no interest in Mike Tolbert.
On the Brandon Lloyd front, it seems like Peyton Manning's situation is taking priority, which accounts for the slow progress. However, Lloyd's contract demands are also said to be higher than what New England is currently offering.

According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette there was never a visit scheduled with Mike Tolbert.

The worst free agent signing of 2012 so far (not Garcon):
CB Eric Wright (TB) – 5 years, $37.5 million ($15.5)
Wright has had an incredibly inconsistent NFL career. His talent and ball skills are not in question, but the quality of his coverage has vacillated between poor and excellent; his unpredictability makes him a risky investment. Wright was targeted more times this season than any cornerback aside from Jabari Greer and ranked 104th out of 109 cornerbacks in 2011 despite playing behind Detroit's intimidating defensive line. His stock also took a hit during the pre-draft process when he was found in possession of a considerable amount of ecstasy; Buccaneers fans will need some to be pleased with this deal.
2008: 56/86 (65.1%), 677 yards (173 yac), 6 TD, 3 INT, 9 PD (97.9 rating)
2009: 47/89 (52.8%), 655 yards (267 yac), 2 TD, 4 INT, 8 PD (65.5 rating)
2010: 43/65 (66.2%), 623 yards (189 yac), 6 TD, 1 INT, 5 PD (121.5 rating)
2011: 79/125 (63.2%), 879 yards (352 yac), 5 TD, 4 INT, 11 PD (84.1 rating)

Sucks that the Steelers have no interest in Tolbert. I LOVE Tolbert.

Would be nothing more than a fourth option here, but Colbert/Urhban are gone so we need another roster body.

As a Bucs fan I 100% agree. I only can hope its one of those contracts that pays the 15.5 early in the contract so we can get out of this mess in two years.
I would have given that money and 3 million more to Lofton over Wright.

I don't know buddy... Everything Mike Brown has done in the last 15 months has turned to gold. Maybe he's on to something.

I don't know if Reggie Nelson fits the Jets defense. The Jets need their DBs, particularly their safeties to be excellent tacklers (yeah I know, Cromartie isn't one of them), great blitzers, and excel in man coverage down the field.
Nelson is good at playing single high, but he can't tackle, isn't the best blitzed, and gets lost in man coverage.
Nelson needs to play in a defense that allows him to play center field the majority of the game. I'm not sure if he fits their style.

McClain's best attribute is his versatility, not so much as a true FB. I would say he's probably a better blocker than Hester though.

Excellent news. He may be a bit of a system player, but now he gets to stay in that system.
