McNabb, Kolb and Vick are not FA's this year.

 

[jeter23]

McNabb, Kolb and Vick are not FA's this year.

That is why I said "and others." I am assuming you might have heard some rumors that one or more might be on the move.

I think Boldin gets dealt. Will likely be based on where Marshall ends up going. Can see Miami/Baltimore/Tampa among others interested.

Tony Scheffler* - Really no clue but going to throw Carolina out there

Explanation on some of the "interesting" picks. I am a firm believer that a percentage of the moves don't make sense football-wise each year from a fantasy standpoint (i.e. why would he go there to be a backup).

Vick and Scheffler - without the price of Peppers on the payroll, these are two guys they could sign and stilll save a ton of money from what their payroll last year with Peppers on the team (of course, they will have to replace him, so some $$ will go there along with other upgrades). I don't see Carolina making a splash for a WR (they just seem snakebitten there in talent evaluation since Smith was drafted), and hopefully they provide Moore with a decent safety outlet in Scheffler. Vick burned them for years and would make the team more athletic. It is close to home for him and he would get a chance if Moore (not really a highly-touted guy fails). The coach and GM are playing for their jobs, so I think they get a little more daring this year.

Boldin - IF Marshall moves (more on that next), Denver is not in a place to go into the season with what they have. They would get a good receiver who could help groom Royal and give Orton a reliable target.

Marshall - Here is my "out there" pick. Miami needs a WR and Marshall wants a place to shine. Good young QB and Parcells has worked with receivers with worse attitudes (he has also shipped them out, which is why this is out on the limb). I don't think Marshall is all that bad (kinda like Keyshawn) and although Parcells once moved him, he also brought him back with the move to Dallas.

Chester Taylor - Miami would not be a bad place for him to land. Not sure how Brown is going to come back, weather is easier for older players and Williams, while great last year, may not have enough gas in him to go into 2010 alone if Brown is hobbled...and I don't think Miami is going to take the chance on that. Plus Miami uses their backs as receiving outlets a lot, so Taylor would fit in well.

Parker - I really feel the Jets are going to replace TJ with a Vet. Parker, while not great, would be cheaper than TJ and his production dropping has a lot to due with age, could possibly also be due to the fact that it started to drop when Faneca left. Parker is getting older, but he has little tread on his tires considering he hardly played between the ages of 18-24.

Jones - I think he is going to have a hard time finding a suitor and while S-Jax is there, STL can't afford to go into the season without a good backup plan. I think it would reduce some of the wear jackson has been taking and extend this Great's career.

Bryant - IF Bal wins the Owens sweepstakes (lol), I can see them going for Bryant (same attitude, but younger).

The two guys that stand out to me thus far in regards to diversity of destination are Pennington and Parker. Part of it may be because they are not "headliners" so not much has been said to influence choices (i.e. Westy to Min). One person thought Penny to the Jets and while it may seem crazy, it is not an awful selection at all. The Jets let him go the second they added Favre so he could find a new team (even with their division rival chompping at the bit), and the fans, while always wanting more, generally appreciate what he did during his tenure. The other thing is that I am not sold on Clemmens even as a backup. He never seemed to shine when he did play (he had the one good game in Baltimore) whereas guys like Fitzpatrick even, have shown they can put up the pinball numbers once in a while. I also think Clemmens is young enough that he may not want to be relegated to backup this early in his career (or at least a chance to play sans injury) and I wonder what that does to the relationship with the starter. Not that he is a cancer or anything like that, but sometimes having a vet that can give unbiased criticism is more helful for a young QB (versus the guy who was supposed to be "the guy" just a few years back).

 

[travdogg]

Chad Pennington-Jaguars(should get a fair shot against Garrard, who the Jags seem to be getting tired of)

Kyle Orton*-Broncos

Jason Campbell*-Redskins

Donovan McNabb-Eagles

Kevin Kolb-Eagles

Michael Vick-49ers(seems like a Singletary project, not sold on Smith and Vick will be a better move than drafting a guy)

LaDainian Tonlinson-Texans(his best remaining skill is short yardage running, which is exactly what Houston needs)

Brian Westbrook-Vikings(I don't think he'll have a big market, likely replacement for Taylor)

Thomas Jones-Lions(at the very least he's a patch until Smith is healthy, more than likely Jones is the guy)

Leon Washington-Jets

Chester Taylor-Redskins(should split carries with Portis)

Willie Parker-Browns(cheap, useful player will be an insurance policy behind Harrison)

Pierre Thomas*-Saints(someone should give up a 2nd rounder for him, but I kinda doubt anyone will)

Jerome Harrison*-Browns(I think he's earned the job)

Darren Sproles*-49ers(I know they've denied interest, but they want an explosive RB and return game help)

Carnell Williams*-Bucs

LenDale White*-Titans

TO-Jaguars(I don't think the Holt experiment will keep them from trying to get a WR upgrade, Owens is a different WR)

Anquan Boldin-Bucs(Boldin and Winslow will give Freeman a fighting chance)

Antonio Bryant-Lions(Stafford gets another weapon and no more triple teams for Calvin)

Kevin Walter-Bills(should give Buffalo another option other than Evans)

Derrick Mason-Ravens

Vincent Jackson*-Chargers

Miles Austin*-Cowboys

Brandon Marshall-Browns(Brady Quinn gets a legit weapon that fits his passing style, Cleveland needs to make a splash)

Braylon Edwards*-Jets

Owen Daniels*-Texans

Tony Scheffler*-Rams(Sam Bradford will need someone to throw to)
