DH visiting the Steelers today...who let Timmons walk, so if they offer him a good deal he might take it, supposedly he has still been in contact with the Pats and Titans
He is playing the FA game well driving the price up but a lot of the time the Pats won't get in any bidding wars
And in Draft news...OJ Howard's dominance at the Combine has him slowly creeping up draft boards, by April he may be a top 10 pick

As a team and scheme fit, I like him with the Pats. As a fan, I can respect the sustained success of that franchise. As a Bama fan who cares about our guys at the next level, I'd rather he leave New England. Whatever deal he signs, they'll never let him stay until completion, and they'll try to backload it (5 years for $60M, with $10M signing bonus and $25M gtd, then the last $35M due in final three years and they release him or trade him beforehand, type of thing).
I'd like to see him go to the Titans so he can A) be closer to family, B) live in the city he just built a massive home, C) keep more of his money with no state income tax, D) be where i can watch him play more

OJ was phenomenal and will interview extremely well, but there have only been 2 first round TEs in the past 5 drafts, and only one drafted in top 10 (#10 overall in 2014 Ebron). I think OJ is a first rounder, and would be thrilled if he worked his way to top 10, but I'm expecting more in the 13-20 range.

Breaking: Eddie Lacy has agreed to a one-year, $5.55 million ($3M guaranteed) deal with the Seahawks, per @AdamSchefter.

Ugh, hopefully they have a better oline next year.

Lacy needs to seriously lose weight. He's not in proper condition which causes him to sit out plays, and him being fat is the reason why he keeps hurting his ankles. He's a beast when he's fully healthy.

Hightower at 4 years and $43.5M with $19M gtd. Back to Pats.

I'm fairly certain that he has, based on recent social media posts. I am pretty sure the 267 weigh in report was bullshite.
I sure hope that he stays committed to his condition, because he has the potential to be one of the best backs in the league, and he is in a good situation in Seattle. Staying in shape should be very easy when that is what you get paid millions to do, surely he can do it.

Andre Smith changes teams in NFL free agency | AL.com

Offensive tackle Andre Smith is heading back to the Cincinnati Bengals in free agency, ESPN reported on Tuesday night.
The former Alabama All-American and the Bengals agreed on a one-year contract for the 2017 season after Smith spent an injury-shortened 2016 campaign with the Minnesota Vikings.
Smith played the first seven of his NFL seasons with Cincinnati after the Bengals selected him with the sixth pick in the 2009 NFL Draft...

Ha-Ha has had a really good career at GB, but doesn't get the recognition.
Kelly was pretty much the lone bright spot on that Indy line. They have been dismal every year Luck has been the QB.

Ha Ha was a pro bowler and named 2nd team all-pro so I'd say he's getting the recognition he deserves now

I know his accomplishments, but he still doesn't get talked about as one of the better safeties in the league. 180 tackles in the last two years, 7 INTs, and 3.5 sacks. Maybe it's me though, but he's played at a pretty high level.
