Yeah I much much much prefer Trevathan + Hicks or some other DEs
Bad teams give out bad deals. Like clockwork.

And agreed. Give me Danny + Hicks/Howard for the same money as Jackson got.

I'm surprised there hasn't been any rumors linking M.Forte to Miami. They're not bringing back L.Miller from the way it's looking and A.Gase had high praise for Forte so it just seems like a good fit. Maybe they're going another direction. I think i heard D.Martin's name linked to them not too long ago.

Is as "no brainer" as it gets. I won't celebrate til it's official, but that's a signing that just had to happen.

6yr deal for M. Jackson, probably ~90mil. Insane. Glad Pace passed on that.

I would think Forte has a short list of teams he's interested in, and the main criteria is "can possibly win a super bowl in the next two years" obviously he needs those teams to have interest in him, but Miami is a long way from being Super Bowl contenders.

Yeah seems like a perfect match and has been for a while. Rock solid signing.

It's a 6-year deal for the #Jaguars and DT Malik Jackson. He'll sign when the league year opens tomorrow.

Hearing Bears Pro Director Champ Kelly, who was major player in drafting Danny Trevathan to Broncos, helping sway LB to Bears.

No big surprises so far, based on what's being reported at least. Bears and Trevathan is a no brained. Pretty obvious for a while Jackson was going to be to pricey. Bears looking at the 2nd tier d-lineman(who really aren't that much worse then Jackson) and looking at bargain players around the defense.

Getlin - I'm told Tamba Hali has agreed to a three-year deal with the #Chiefs (as @AdamSchefter first reported).
