 FOX Sports on MSN - John Czarnecki - Talk isn't just about college stars at combine
INDIANAPOLIS - The scouting combine is the biggest convention of coaches, executives and agents for the NFL. Sure, there are 330 or so potential players here being tested and interviewed ad naseum — and I'm sure the ladies are upset that these young men are no longer going topless — but mainly this is a talk shop of what may or may not happen in pending free-agency and where potential deals ...

Zorn's initial reaction to getting head coach interview: Ack, ack
Published 2/25/2008 by Skin Patrol <info@hogshaven.com> at Hogs Haven: Front Page Posts
... So now the imperative to beat Seattle grows. As much as I appreciate those bright fellows over at Field Gulls, the Seahawks have pooped the Redskins out of their last two playoff appearances. Now we combine that with the comparable indignity that they don't even think our head coach is worthy of being their offensive coordinator? Something needs to be done about that west coast (excepting their offenses; we'll need that). Briefly related, John Czarnecki is covering the combine and has a few Redskins tidbits. The first: ...

... The NFL Scouting Combine is rumor central in the football world, with hundreds of players, agents, coaches and executives in town trading gossip. Most of the rumors aren't worth passing along, but John Czarnecki of Fox Sports writes about one that's too juicy to pass up: ...

Rumor du Jour: Randy Moss to the Cowboys

Is Moss headed to Dallas?
Published 2/26/2008 at ESPN.com - NFL Nation - Blog
... There's an interesting note in John Czarnecki's column from the NFL scouting combine suggesting that Patriots receiver Randy Moss might be interested in signing with the Cowboys in free agency. The Czar, who once went toe to toe with me on a treadmill in the Livonia (Mich.) Marriott, thinks that Moss will give the Patriots final say before he signs with anyone. ...

DeShaun Foster Begging Bucs For Work
Published 2/26/2008 by Scott at Bucstats.com
I don't know how true this is, but I'm just glad I didn't say it first. Here's the whole story: DeShaun Foster is begging the Bucs for work at $2 million a season... Oh, well I guess the headline said it all. I somehow doubt Foster is begging. He's still a talent and plenty of teams need a second-tier running back to provide depth or a change of pace. But probably not at $2 million per year. Do you know who is worth $2 million per year? Me. I won't tell you what kind of service I provide, but ...

Saints in Lead to Sign Asante Samuel
Published 2/27/2008 by Michael David Smith at FanHouse
... Boston, New Orleans, NFL Free AgencyNew England Patriots cornerback Asante Samuel is less than 48 hours away from becoming an unrestricted free agent, and the New Orleans Saints are the early favorites to sign him. In fact, some league observers believe the Saints and Samuel's agent have already engaged in some early (and technically against the rules) contract negotiations that could land Samuel in New Orleans before the weekend is over. Fox Sports reports that the Saints are in the lead to give Samuel the contract of $10 million to ...

... and the Bears offered 5 years, $25 million.  Berrian apparently wants to pass Deion Branch's deal of 6 years, $39 million.  I'd personally rather go with some smaller names and spread the money around as I've never been a big Bernard Berrian fan.  Of course, rumor has it Berrian really wants to play in San Francisco. ...

Adam at Arrowhead Addict says the Chiefs should be looking at New Orleans free agent center Jeff Faine. Nick Athan of WPI asks -- Why not McFadden? Before you ask, the Chiefs should not be interested in David Carr. The Saints are the early favorite to land free agent CB Asante Samuel.
