probably overpayed, and DT is a bigger need anyway. Are there DT's we could throw that money at?

Kearney confirmed it to Foxsports.com and Shefter is reporting it. Damn his contract was huge from what is being reported. Too much in my opinion. GET DAN GRAHAM NOW

That's it? That's right around Kelsay's per year average. I would have thought his per year average would have been up around $8M per year considering he's actually done something in the NFL and Kelsay hasn't.

Nearly $20 million in guarneteed money for a 30 year old DE with 11 sacks the last two seasons. No thanks. Step the offer up to Graham, then go help the DL in the draft.

I read it as the average is 6.58 and his is higher. Will have to do some math but still that much guranteed money for someone who has peaked is a little much.

EDIT: NEVER MIND I AM RETARDED IT IS 6.58 per/yr

I would rather have Graham than Kerney in Free Agency. Get Graham then draft DE/DT/S.

I like Kerney but this is a blessing in disguise. Too many guys in the locker room would have been thinking, "He makes how much? He ain't that fricking good."

I knew he would be overpriced. I'm afraid Graham will be too but hopefully we throw nearly all of our remaining cap room at him. $4 million per still seems somewhat reasonable but I would be ok with a little more. What did Shiancoe get...5-18?

ahwell, it was a good run we gave him. Denver knew we couldn't get both Graham and Kerney, hopefully we can get dg.

John Clayton wrote that Kerney told Seattle and Denver that he would make his decision on the flight from Seattle to Atlanta. When he landed he informed Seattle he was signing with them. Know what he was flying on, Paul Allens private jet. Bowlen still charters planes for himself. FFS Bowlen buy a jet!

Still he was overpriced.

Exactly. Lets get Graham and I will be a happy camper. Then focus the 1st day draft on D-line !

Son of a b****. Source? Hell, we probably should not have even wasted our time given how tight against the cap we were. On to the draft, I guess.

Link it because the same John Clayton article that reports the Kerney signing reports that the Broncos and Seattle will resume negotiations Tuesday. If they signed him they would have announced it.

The winner was Seattle, but now another battle brews. The Seahawks and Broncos enter into negotiations Tuesday with New England Patriots tight end Daniel Graham.
