Yes, you are right, there's absolutely nothing new in that article.

<p class="">This is a surprise: <a class="" href='https://twitter.com/hashtag/Jets?src=hash'>#Jets</a> QB Ryan Fitzpatrick is expected to hit the free agent market, sources say. Sides are far apart on a potential deal

Quote:The Giants need pass rushers as bad as the Jags do yet they're not aggressively pursuing JPP. Beware the player with more P's in his name than fingers on his hand. Pass on JPP.


Than let them miss out.


I'm not sold on JPP yet, but he still got great pressure last year. He struggled getting the guy down but that was his first year after a major thing happened injury wise. Once he gets used to what he has to do we'll see how he does. Still better than most guys on the dline besides malik, vernon, and maybe another guy or two at best probably.

Things could get interesting for a division rival:

Brock Osweiler | DEN

(March 7, 2016 8:28 AM EST)


News 9 Denver's Mike Klis reports the Texans are expected to contact free agent Brock Osweiler's representatives early in the legal tampering period.


This should not come as a surprise. The Texans are in desperate need of an upgrade at quarterback, and Yahoo's Charles Robinson reported Osweiler could be a "far bigger target than anyone anticipates" for Houston. Klis reports the Broncos have a three-year deal worth more than $45 million on the table, but Osweiler is smart to see if he can better that offer in a cap-rich market. It remains likely Osweiler stays in Denver, but it is far from a certainty.

If interested in, coming to JAX deal or no deal?

Doubt it. No reason to pay big for a 3rd WR who has injury problems.

Not a big Osweiler fan but it would suck to see the Texans get an upgrade at QB in fa like that.


Worried about Fitzpatrick too. He was solid in NYJ last year.
Nothing can really happen today right? The legal tampering doesn't start until tomorrow right? Or am I mistaken? lol The division and FA starts tomorrow Smile Life is grand! hahaha

 

 

GO JAGS!!

I agree. Jags have a solid group of young WR.  No gracias Victor Cruz.

Teams can start negotiating with UFA at noon today. They can't officially sign until the new league year starts at 4pm on Wednesday.
Oh hell, thanks BigJohn! I guess I was mistaken. lol Nothing new there. Well, I guess I will be paying more attention to things today Smile

 

 

GO JAGS!!

RGIII has been told he will be released today.

Fitzpatrick hitting the market too. I'm sure the Texans will make contact with him too.....


Last year was the year to take this division.

<p class="">The <a class="" href='https://twitter.com/hashtag/Colts?src=hash'>#Colts</a> released QB Josh Freeman, and with Matt Hasselbeck not returning, they now need a backup for Andrew Luck.

Colts release Josh Freeman. Andrew Luck in need of a back up.

<p class="">Source says Colts have ex-Pats TE Scott Chandler in for a visit today.
