K'Waun Williams - DB - 49ers
49ers signed CB K'Waun Williams to a one-year contract.
The Vikings, Dolphins, Jets and Lions were also in pursuit of Williams. The 25-year-old missed all of last season while recovering from ankle surgery. When healthy, he'll give San Francisco a viable nickel corner and perhaps allow the 49ers to move Jimmie Ward to free safety.

E da, Ward na FS, to je već to...

browns imaju 108 miliona. da li uopste neko hoce da ide kod njih od vecih zverki?
sf isto ce imati ako otpusti qb fransize i glavnog pitbula. tamo vec hoce da idu.

Pa mi smo California, nema jače...

Report: Ravens TE Pitta candidate for release
Sources told NFL Network's Mike Garafolo the Ravens "may balk" at paying Dennis Pitta's $5.5 million salary.
The Baltimore Sun hinted at this after the season. Turning 32 in June, Pitta's 86 receptions led all NFL tight ends last year, but he averaged an anemic 6.02 yards per target and didn't have a positive impact on offense beyond catching short passes and immediately falling down. Pitta also wasn't a big part of the Ravens' red-zone passing game. In Maxx Williams and Darren Waller, Baltimore has younger tight ends with more potential, and could use salary cap relief.

9ers announced assistant GM Tom Gamble has left the organization.
In a statement, rookie GM John Lynch announced he and Gamble "agreed that it would be in both of our best interests for him to pursue other opportunities" after working together for the last month. With a rookie general manager and head coach at the controls, the 49ers are losing an experienced and well-respected personnel man who could have eased the transition. Gamble is a 29-year scouting/front office veteran, including ten years with the 49ers.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport suggests the Patriots could transition tag free agent ILB Dont'a Hightower.
The Patriots want to keep Hightower but haven't had any talks since the end of the season. There's some concern over giving him a multi-year deal after durability concerns surfaced in 2016. Transition tagging would be cheaper than franchising Hightower but only guarantees New England the ability to match any offer. Hightower is reportedly targeting more than $10 million annually.

Free agent ILB Kevin Minter indicated he'd be open to signing with the Jets.
Minter has ties to coach Todd Bowles, who coached him the first two years of his career in Arizona. The Jets don't have a huge need at inside linebacker, but Minter could be an option if Darron Lee moves outside. Minter is Rotoworld's No. 6 free agent inside linebacker.

deadline for tagging ending March 1 at 22:00 CE.

1. Kirk Cousins (28) -- Currently sixth all time in passing yards per game. Likely to get tagged again.
2. Chandler Jones (27) – Double-digit sacks in three of last four years. Almost certain to get tagged.
3. Jason Pierre Paul (28) -- One of NFL's most complete defensive ends. G-Men badly want him back.
4. Kawann Short (28) -- Do-all 4-3 defensive tackle. Panthers fully expected to franchise tag Short.
5. Eric Berry (28) – Takeaway specialist shuts down TEs. Says he won’t play on franchise tag again.
6. A.J. Bouye (25) – Ascending shutdown corner was PFF’s No. 6 coverage CB out of 120 last year.
7. Melvin Ingram (27) – Only Von Miller, Khalil Mack had more QB hurries among 3-4 OLBs in ’16.
8. Alshon Jeffery (27) – Type-A No. 1 WR with availability concerns. Still a lock to break the bank.
9. Brandon Williams (28) – This year’s Damon Harrison. Dominant run-stopping two-down nose.
10. Le’Veon Bell (25) – Deserves to become the NFL’s highest-paid back, but likely to get tagged.
11. Trumaine Johnson (27) – Rare size for CB (6’2/204). No. 2 free agent corner behind A.J. Bouye.
12. Stephon Gilmore (26) – Gilmore is this year’s Janoris Jenkins. Supreme talent but inconsistent.
13. Calais Campbell (30) – Finished third among 3-4 DEs in tackles for loss (12), second in sacks ( 8 ).
14. Terrelle Pryor (27) – Went 77-1,007-4 in first season at WR. Browns say Pryor won’t be tagged.
15. Kevin Zeitler (27) – Top-ten guard in PFF’s ratings three straight years. Expected to leave Cincy.
16. Logan Ryan (26) – Versatile corner has experience covering slot and shadowing No. 1 receivers.
17. Brandon Carr (30) – Coming off best season in Dallas. Has played both man and zone coverage.
18. Andrew Whitworth (35) – Old but highly effective. Has missed two starts in the last eight years.
19. Nick Perry (26) – 3-4 OLB broke out for career-high 11 sacks playing on one-year, prove-it deal.
20. Johnathan Hankins (25) – 4-3 DT has disappointed the last two years, but will still strike it rich.

22. DeSean Jackson (30) – D-Jax has led NFL in yards per reception in two of the last three years.
23. Larry Warford (25) – 332-pound RG coming off his best season. This year’s Brandon Brooks.
24. Dre Kirkpatrick (27) – Steady if unspectacular boundary CB. Allowed only two TDs last year.
25. Tony Jefferson (27) – Led all safeties in tackles for loss (13) last season. Can shut down TEs.
26. Russell Okung (29) – Cut by Broncos. Will still be in demand due to weak OT market/draft.
27. T.J. Lang (29) – Top-15 guard at PFF in three straight years. Did not allow a sack last season.
28. Dontari Poe (26) – Freakishly athletic nose tackle’s name and body are bigger than his game.
29. Prince Amukamara (27) – Quality No. 2 corner when healthy. Never a takeaway specialist.
30. Pierre Garcon (30) – Led Skins in receptions (79), yards (1,041). Tackle breaker after catch.
31. Kelvin Beachum (27) – Cut by Jags. Undersized (6’3/303) LT struggled after 2015 ACL tear.
32. Mike Glennon (27) – Deliberate, slow-twitch QB could get overpaid by a desperate team.
33. Kenny Stills (24) – Possible gem of this year’s free agent WR class. Great hands, 4.38 speed.
34. Rick Wagner (27) – This year’s Mitchell Schwartz sits atop free agent right tackle market.
35. Ronald Leary (27) – Leary’s strength is run blocking. Saints tried to trade for him last year.
36. Matt Kalil (27) – Plagued by knee/hip injuries. Poor available LT talent will inflate his market.
37. Barry Church (29) – 222-pound strong safety does his best work near the line of scrimmage.
38. Riley Reiff (28) – 2012 first-rounder hasn’t met expectations in Detroit. Moved to RT last year.
39. Cordarrelle Patterson (26) – Has five kick-return TDs last four years. Gadget player on offense.
40. Martellus Bennett (30) – Played through knee/ankle injuries last year. No. 1 TE in free agency.
41. Jabaal Sheard (27) – Fell behind Trey Flowers with Pats last year. Fits best as rotational 4-3 DE.
42. Duron Harmon (26) – Excelled as Patriots’ No. 3 safety. Candidate to land shockingly big deal.
43. James Harrison (38) – Remained the Steelers’ best pass rusher at age 38. Likely staying in PIT.
44. Julius Peppers (37) – Still useful rotational pass rusher. Registered 7.5 sacks on 58% of snaps.
45. Kenny Britt (28) – Topped 1,000 yards with awful QB play. Also set career high in catches (68).
46. Chris Baker (29) – Underrated 3-4 DE has 9.5 sacks, five forced fumbles the past two seasons.
47. Bennie Logan (27) – Nose tackle struggled in Eagles’ “Wide-9” scheme. Played better in 3-4.
48. Morris Claiborne (27) – Played well when healthy in ’16, but missed 32 games last four years.

50. T.J. McDonald (26) – Slightly above-replacement-level safety may be facing drug suspension.
51. Nick Mangold (33) – Released by rebuilding Jets. Played well when healthy early last season.
52. Jared Cook (29) – Light flipped on with good QB play. Fully expected to re-sign with Packers.
53. Terrance Williams (27) – Chronic body catcher with no standout on-field traits. Buyer beware.
54. Jack Doyle (26) – Plus run blocker, reliable possession/red-zone target. Top-three FA tight end.
55. Lawrence Timmons (30) – Father Time is catching up to Timmons, who was a liability last year.
56. Darius Butler (31) – Longtime playmaking slot corner for Colts wants to transition to safety.
57. Captain Munnerlyn (28) – Feisty slot CB yielded just four gains of 20-plus yards on 68 targets.
58. Jared Odrick (29) – Cut by Jags after injury-shortened year. Has played 4-3 DE and DT, 3-4 DE.
59. Bradley McDougald (26) – Box safety has experience matching up with TEs in man coverage.
60. Kendall Wright (27) – Badly needs change of scenery. Slot receiver with some vertical ability.
61. Robert Woods (24) – Sure-handed WR hasn’t played in a functional passing offense since USC.
62. D.J. Swearinger (26) – Hard-hitting safety had breakout year in 2016. His arrow is pointing up.
63. Michael Floyd (27) – Chronic underachiever facing suspension after extreme DUI in December.
64. J.C. Tretter (26) – Held own as Packers’ starting center before MCL tear. Possible value pickup.
65. Zach Brown (27) – Early-season star ILB tailed off as year progressed. Longtime underachiever.
66. Nick Fairley (29) – Impact 4-3 DT when healthy, in shape. NFL teams don’t seem to trust him.
67. Ted Ginn (31) – Still lifts lid, flips field position. Nine receptions of 40-plus yards last two years.
68. Charles Johnson (30) – Took below-market deal to stay in Carolina last year. Likely will again.
69. Lorenzo Alexander (33) – GMs likely wary of career special teamer breaking out for 12.5 sacks.
70. Perry Riley (28) – Up-and-down ILB resurrected his career in Oakland. Still a scary investment.
71. Kevin Minter (26) – Roughly replacement-level ILB has forced one turnover in 61 career games.
72. Brian Hoyer (31) – Could envision him as bridge QB for old pal Kyle Shanahan in San Francisco.
73. Ryan Fitzpatrick (34) – Stretched as starter but still one of the NFL’s better backup QB options.
74. Josh McCown (37) – See Ryan Fitzpatrick. Helps that McCown is willing to mentor young QBs.
75. Datone Jones (26) – Jack of many trades, master of none. Best attribute is DE/DT/LB versatility.
76. Stacy McGee (27) – Rotational 4-3 DT/3-4 DE was enjoying strong 2016 before injuries struck.
77. DeMarcus Ware (34) – Had back surgery in December. No idea what he has left at this point.
78. Alan Branch (32) – Anchored New England’s run defense last year. Old and doesn’t rush the QB.
79. Alex Okafor (26) – 3-4 OLB has 13.5 sacks over last three years in rotational role for Cardinals.
80. Jarvis Jones (27) – Has shown he isn’t an NFL pass rusher, but useful edge setter in run game.
81. Dwight Freeney (37) – Still has some pass-rush ability, but may be considering retirement.
82. Terence Newman (38) – Entering his 15th NFL season. Has always played well for Mike Zimmer.
83. Chris Long (32) – Quality “locker-room guy;” Long offers little on the field at this stage of career.
84. Lawrence Guy (27) – Run-stopping five-technique 3-4 DE. Leaves the field on passing downs.
85. William Gholston (25) – Another run-stopping end who offers little in pass-rush department.
86. Gerald Hodges (26) – 3-4 ILB. One of the few 49ers defenders who played the run well in ’16.
87. Sylvester Williams (28) – Nose tackle was one of main culprits in Denver’s soft run defense.
88. Andre Branch (27) – Replacement-level 4-3 DE had 5.5 sacks, two forced fumbles last season.
89. Brandon Fusco (28) – Once-promising guard struggled badly after tearing his pectoral in 2015.
90. Erik Walden (31) – Not really a pass rusher. Lucked his way into career-high 11 sacks last year.
91. Ryan Griffin (27) – Possession TE rotated with C.J. Fiedorowicz last season. Low-impact blocker.
92. Latavius Murray (26) – Big and fast, but doesn’t beat contact and unreliable in the passing game.
93. Eddie Lacy (26) – Does beat contact, but can’t stay healthy and conditioning a recurring concern.
94. Danny Woodhead (32) – Tore ACL last September. Trusted change-of-pace/passing-down RB.
95. Rex Burkhead (26) – This year’s best all-around FA running back. Elusive runner, terrific receiver.
96. LeGarrette Blount (30) – Good role player if used correctly. One-dimensional grinder/clock killer.
97. Andre Ellington (28) – Fell behind David Johnson, Chris Johnson, and Kerwynn Williams in 2016.
98. Jacquizz Rodgers (27) – Young journeyman RB outplayed Doug Martin and Charles Sims last year.
99. DeAngelo Williams (33) – Battled knee problems for much of ’16. When healthy, great No. 2 RB.
100 (tie). Patrick DiMarco (27), Kyle Juszczyk (25), James Develin (28) – It's a strong fullback class.

Cardinals use franchise tag on Chandler Jones

Cardinals assigned the franchise tag to OLB Chandler Jones.
This was about as expected as any move this offseason after president Michael Bidwill, GM Steve Keim, and coach Bruce Arians all said Jones wouldn't be going anywhere as a free agent. Acquired from the Patriots last offseason, Jones was Pro Football Focus' third-ranked 3-4 edge rusher behind Khalil Mack and Von Miller. Jones amassed 66 combined sacks and pressures. The tag for outside linebackers is expected to cost roughly $14.64 million.

Trumaine Johnson - DB - Rams

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Rams will likely use the franchise tag on free agent CB Trumaine Johnson.
The Rams were originally expected to let Johnson test the open market after his play fell off a bit in 2016, but have apparently decided they can't let their No. 1 cornerback walk for the second year in a row. The new coaching staff will obviously expect Johnson to take a step forward under defensive maestro Wade Phillips.

Melvin Ingram - LB - Chargers

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports free agent OLB Melvin Ingram is expected to be franchise tagged by the Chargers.
Coming off another strong season, Ingram is flying a bit under the radar in the national media, but that won't be the case with teams. The Bolts understand this, making tagging the 28-year-old (in April) pass rusher a bit of a no-brainer. The deadline to apply the tag is Wednesday.

Antonio Brown - WR - Steelers

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports there has been "significant progress" on long-term contract talks between the Steelers and Antonio Brown.
The goal is to have a new long-term deal hammered out by March 9, the start of the new league year. Brown has one year left on his current deal and will probably become the league's highest-paid receiver on his next contract.

DeSean Jackson - WR - Redskins

CSN Mid-Atlantic's JP Finlay believes it's "hard to see a scenario" where the Redskins re-sign free agent DeSean Jackson.
Finlay's colleague, Rich Tandler, agrees. It's not that the Redskins don't want Jackson back; he's simply expected to price himself out of Washington's range. Fellow free agent Pierre Garcon is expected to be the Redskins' higher priority, and Jamison Crowder is also up for an extension soon. Jackson should have no problem clearing $10 million per year on the open market. The Eagles, Bucs, and Rams have all been linked to Jackson.

Dont'a Hightower - LB - Patriots

The Boston Herald reports it remains unclear if the Patriots plan to place the franchise tag on free agent ILB Dont'a Hightower before Wednesday's deadline.
Per reporter Jeff Howe, an extension does not appear "imminent." Howe believes the tag would be an indication the sides are close. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport has reported the Pats could opt for the transition tag, giving them the right of first refusal if Hightower signs elsewhere.

Le'Veon Bell - RB - Steelers

Steelers assigned the exclusive-rights franchise tag to RB Le'Veon Bell.
He joins Panthers DT Kawann Short and Cardinals OLB Chandler Jones as 2017's first three franchise-tag wearers. The "exclusive" tag locks Bell into a top-five running back salary ($12 million-plus) and prohibits other teams from negotiating with him. The Steelers plan to lock up Antonio Brown to a long-term deal and let Bell sport the tag, potentially for the entirety of the forthcoming season. Extending Bell isn't a priority after he battled foot and knee injuries his first three years in the league, and served two short suspensions. Still only 25 years old, Bell has averaged 4.88 yards per carry and 143.1 yards from scrimmage per game over the past two seasons. He's neck and neck with David Johnson as the top running back in football, and we'd give the slight edge to Bell.

JJP fransiza tag popio. NYG se ne sale.

Ništa od tog taga neće biti. Ili će Giantsi skinuti tag ili će biti postignut long term deal. Mislim da je u pitanju očajnički pokušaj da se izblefira JPP.

covek ce traziti lovu koju je dobio Oliver.

i neće je dobiti, ni u Giantsima niti bilo gde. Vernon je mlađi dve godine, u karijeri je propustio dve ili tri utakmice i ima svih deset prstiju na rukama.

Visina taga za DE poziciju je oko 17 miliona. To je malo više od polovine prostora koji Giantsi imaju u kepu ( ako pretpostavimo da neće biti dodatnog pravljenja prostora otpuštanjima i restruktuiranjem ). Nekih 5-6 miliona mora ići na ruki klasu. Sa preostalih desetak miliona nema teorije da možeš potpisati Vitvorta ili Okunga, produžiti Henkinsa ili bar Kenana Robinsona, potpisati eventualno još nekog veterana kao bekap u OL...itakodaljeitakobliže.
