eagles

Well for right now I am only going to do updates and news from the NFL until I am a little better at doing this. So here is some of the news that has happened in the NFL today.

First off the Vikings have signed CB Cedric Griffin to a contract extension which included 1.62 million guaranteed. It is likely he will recieve more due to the fact that he is a very talented player and one of the top players in his position in the league.

Well, my Philadelphia Eagles who have had a quiet offseason signed FB Leonard Weaver to a 1 year deal. Weaver spent his first four seasons with the Seattle Seahawks was very underuses as many fullbacks in the league are. Weaver is very versatile and will give the Eagles a much needed blocker in the backfield.

Then theres the Patriots who have been busy this off season signing another big name player in Joey Galloway. The 37 year old reciever will line up with Randy Moss giving the Patriots one of best WR tandems as they are only two of nine active recievers with 10,000 or more recieving yards in their career. Galloway has a 15.7 ypr career average, terms of this deal have not yet been disclosed.

The Saints also cut CB Mike McKenzie who is 32 yrs old and has spent the last 5 years with the team after coming to the team in a 2005 trade with the Packers. Finally, the Cardinals signed offensive lineman Elton Brown to a 1 year deal. Brown played in all 16 games and the postseason for the team and is a 4 year veteran.
