Official 2019 Free Agency

[Ronin]

Eagles signed LB Zach Brown, formerly of the Redskins, to a one-year contract.
Released by the Redskins in a salary-cap move in March, it's somewhat surprising it took this long for Brown to find a new home. Brown doesn't turn 30 until after the season starts and graded out as Pro Football Focus' No. 3 off-ball linebacker out of 61 qualifiers last season, behind only Luke Kuechly and Bobby Wagner. After losing Jordan Hicks in free agency, Brown is a quality replacement in the middle of the Eagles' defense.

Zach Brown signs with the Eagles; 1 yr & $3mm. Surely we could have afforded that for a stud ILB. Oh well! Way to go Keim!!!

$3m from Philly where he'll replace and start because we signed their guy or $3m in AZ?

You make the business decision.

Easy! $3mm in AZ so I don’t have to watch Reddick be lost out there and insurance should Hicks do a stint on the sideline.

Zack Brown disagrees.

 

[Shane]

I don’t understand what we have against the guy. He’s been available a handful of times over the years and we avoid him like the plague.

I just need to breathe and let it go!

Maybe it’s Brown avoiding us like the plague

maybe he tried and just wanted to play for a Super Bowl contender

Or payback twice a year with the Skins.

 

[Minski]

Wonder how much Fitz mate Suh would cost for a year. There are a few LBs there that could help also

Former AAF Memphis Express CB Terrell Bonds is expected to sign with the #Ravens today, source said. Bonds, who played at Tennessee State, just needs to pass his physical for it to be official.

Cornerback Chandon Sullivan, who was recently released by the #Eagles, is signing with the #Packers today, per agents the Katz bros. He started one game for Philly last year and was a special teams contributor.

 

[JeffGollin]

Gotta question:

Can team trade away a draft pick right after they draft him? Any time limits (or other limits) on how soon after the draft they can trade him?

The #Bucs are signing RB Kerwynn Williams, source said. He was released by the #Lions last week, and has familiarity with Bruce Arians and OC Byron Leftwich from their #AZCardinals days.

Here’s an interesting one. The #Raiders are working out free agent G Richie Incognito today, sources say. Incognito didn’t play last season after he retired, un-retired and then was cut by the #Bills. But word is he’s in shape and feeling well in all aspects. Wants to play again.

Starting tomorrow any free agent(s) signed after May 7 doesn’t count, either for the new team or the old team, toward the compensatory picks, either team will won’t receive for 2020.

#AZCardinals could still address certain positions at some point; DL, ILB, DB & OL.

I liked Kerwyn. He would have been solid depth.

The #Patriots are planning to sign free agent OT Jared Veldheer later this week, sources tell me and ⁦‪@TomPelissero‬⁩. The veteran former member of the #Broncos and #AZCardinals visited New England last week and the two sides are in a good place with numbers. Provides key depth.

It's expected to be a 1-year deal worth up to $6.5 million for Veldheer. Nice deal for a veteran who has 113 career starts. And it'll get done after the deadline for counting toward compensatory picks, which the #Patriots love.

#Raiders signed former AAF Orlando Apollos and #Jets WR Jalin Marshall, per his agent.

Sam Wyche and Company was on NFL Network earlier speculating that the best fit for Suh would be the Arizona Cardinals and speculating that he could be a possible landing spot here

The #49ers signed former #Jets starting Center Wesley Johnson.

Waived TE Marcus Lucas.

Not sure the Cards can afford him and I don't see him giving a discount to one of the worst teams in the league. Would be nice though.

Sources: The #Seahawks have emerged as the front-runner to sign star FA DE Ziggy Ansah. They visited with him in late April and need a big-time pass-rusher after dealing Frank Clark. The contract has not been finalized yet. He also visited with the #Bills, who remain interested.
