2014 NFL Free Agents (2 Viewers)

I dont get the Kenny Britt ranking. 101 overall on NFL.com FA list????
Why they glamorize his mistakes is over my head.
Did anyone forget the beginning of the season he put up 289 (271 in 2 games) and 2 TDs the first 3 games of the year, then missed the rest because of injury.
2012 a few decent games.
2011, he put up MONSTER numbers. (A bunch of 9s, a 40 POINT GAME, 15 point game before his 3-4 games out, then to end the season 14,15,15.)
Is it just me or do I see a pretty good opportunity for production here, Time will tell wherever he goes, but seriously! I dont see who a better player to have would be in Free Agency @ WR, Call me Crazy but I would take him over Nicks ANYDAY. Dudes ceiling is CRAZY good! & to put him at the 101 FA spot.? The writer needs to lay off that "Haterade"

he reminds me of Braylon, tons of talent but just doesn't care.
Your years are off.
Even if you llllove his 2010 season with 775 yards, roughly a third against the Eagles in one game, that was still 3-4 years ago depending how you gauge years/seasons.
Plaxico is clinging to the faint hope that he can still play. He is competing against the free agent pool and a bumper crop of rookie draft prospects, so the odds are long.
Nate Washington is maybe the only honest critic of Britt-seemed that way at times. Anyway, here's a bit from an article. On the surface it's nothing, but I've never read of this before and it actually seems like maybe just maybe he grew up.
“Kenny was over at my house maybe three times this past week and I talk to him all the time,” Washington said. “I know he's been through a lot and a lot of people have their opinions. But football
doesn't make us. That's a great friend of mine. He's been through a lot in his life. We still talk daily. I still treat him like a brother and he treats me like a brother.”
Washington said Britt, a first-round pick of the Titans in 2009, is doing well.
“He's made tremendous strides in his life and I'm pretty sure when he gets that opportunity again, he'll seize it,” Washington said. “But he's doing great. He loves his family. We all make mistakes, big or small, but all you can do is look forward to tomorrow. That's what he's doing, moving on and being a better man to his wife and his kids.”

Britt looked average at best in 2012, and was utter garbage in 2013. Then add in bad knees and his arrest record. If 2010 / 2011 Britt somehow shows up then yeah, whoever signs him on a veteran minimum deal is getting a steal. But it's far more likely that the multiple knee injuries took away what made him special in the first place. And I'm as big a Britt defender as you'll find on these or any other FF boards. If I were an NFL GM, I'd sign him to a cheap one year contract with no guarantees, but he wouldn't be a priority for me. If he still had difference making talent, we'd have seen some type of flashes of it the past two years. But he's been a complete non factor.

Matt Asiata could be a good backup to Adrian Peterson...FunkyPlutos said:

@AdamSchefter: Broncos are releasing CB Champ Bailey, as @JasonLaCanfora reported. Denver frees up $10 million in cap space but loses a leader.

This makes a ton of sense for Houston to do if they indeed draft their future starter in Bortles, Manziel, or Bridgewater. Cassel is a guy who can come in an mentor and take the reins for a year while his protege gets groomed for 2015. Most of the analysts are saying there's no QB ready to start from day one anyway. This only solidifies them taking a QB at #1 overall, imo.

Peterson went on to say that he felt he'd proved he could overcome the odds of facing eight defenders at the line of scrimmage and that he wants to challenge himself by running against nine in the box.
