Free agency period could be pushed back!

[HEAV]

Gary Myers, of the New York Daily News, reports the NFL free agent market is scheduled to open March 3, but it could be pushed back until April 1 if there is enough progress made in the next couple of weeks in negotiations for an extension of the collective bargaining agreement. There have been advances in some areas since the Super Bowl ended 10 days ago that could lead to a delay in free agency, according to source with knowledge of the talks. The sides met yesterday in New York. "The only good news is there is a lot of talk," the source said last night. "That is usually a good sign. Both sides are feeling pressure to get it done within a reasonable time period."

Wow...

I heard John Clayton on the today, he said he thought that there would be a new deal in the next week or two.

I dunno, can't we all just get along???

That's BS!

Spreading out signing bonuses over 6 to 7 years compared to the 4 it would be if there is no deal is not BS.

If there is no deal in place by March 3, but it appears that one will agreed to soon, you won't see virtually no FA signings anyway.
