Is he basically saying he thinks he can beat out Schaub over Tavaris Jackson?

More likely that he's happy making nice money and having zero expectations or pressure put on him. It's a good gig.

I think it has more to do with the quality of college trim coming out of Texas. Nothing against Seattle but the women are just a little hotter down here.

Former Toledo Rocket Lance Moore re-signed with New Orleans.

Good move for them and for Lance Moore, he's done very well there.

Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reports that the Saints have agreed to the terms of a trade that would send running back Reggie Bush to the Dolphins.

The deal hinges on the Dolphins working out an acceptable contract with Bush. Due to earn a base salary of $11.8 million in 2011, Bush will have to take a pay cut. (Of course, if he agrees to a long-term deal with the Dolphins, he could actually pocket $11.8 million in salary and bonuses in 2011, or more.)

There’s also a chance that Bush will stay put in New Orleans, if he agrees to accept a reduced rate of pay.

The move makes plenty of sense for the Saints, who would have had no choice but to cut Bush ASAP. If he tears an ACL or busts an Achilles’ tendon in training camp, New Orleans will owe him the full $11.8 million.

Also, by trading him the Saints will be able to ensure that he ended up out of their division — and out of their conference.

In the end, Bush’s place of employment for 2011 will come down to whether he wants to stay with the Saints or move on. Lately, he has been saying all the right things about New Orleans. His chance to prove that he means it has now arrived.

Texans reportedly in “lead” for Asomugha

SouthStndJunkie · 07-28-2011, 09:16 AM

Good....I'd rather see Nnamdi Asomugha sign with the Texans than anyone else.

I'll always root for Gary Kubiak to do well.

wow, how do the niners like him now? they only made him the highest paid CB in the nfl a few years ago...

BroncosMT · 07-28-2011, 09:25 AM

"With the two sides unable to reach agreement on a paycut, the 49ers officially told CB Nate Clements they will be releasing him."

Apparently not as much as he thinks TJ

Adam Schefter of ESPN and Mark Berman of MyFOXHouston.com report that the Texans have agreed to terms on a five-year deal with former Bengals cornerback Jonathan Joseph.

SouthStndJunkie · 07-28-2011, 06:53 PM

Jonathan Joseph is a very solid corner and is entering the prime of his career at 27 years old.

07-28-2011, 07:04 PM

Yeah. From twitter:

@KCJoynerTFS: Joseph has a better 2-yr YPA than Asomugha on nearly 3 times as many targets.

oubronco · 07-28-2011, 07:09 PM

And another FA bites the dust

Killericon · 07-29-2011, 11:31 AM

The CB I'm hoping for is Richard Marshall...

SouthStndJunkie · 08-01-2011, 11:43 AM

Jason Taylor is going to back to Miami for a third stint with the team.

Taylor is still capable of getting to the QB....put him in as a situation pass rusher and he will still get you anywhere from 5 to 8 sacks a year.

Here's the Zach Miller contract with the Seahawks: 5 years, $34 million, including $17 million guaranteed.

but there's that qb thing.

Holy crap does the Raiders passing game look crappy right now. Jason Campbell throwing to a bunch of scrubs. Man that running game is going to have to work overtime. Gotta say I'm liking our chances against them this year.
