5/24 NFL Rumors: The Free Agent Wideouts

May 24th 2011 14:02
Randy Moss had the most receiving touchdowns in an NFL season with the New England Patriots in 2007. After an ugly breakup last year, the Pats' biggest rivals could sign Moss. This would only happen if the Jets were unable to re-sign either Santonio Holmes or Braylon Edwards. Holmes and Edwards are better players than Moss at this point in time, but Moss would fit right in in New York.

Mike Brown is the worst owner in the league, and he has the most interesting QB situation on his hands. We all know about the Carson Palmer quandary, and Brown has reiterated the fact that the Bengals will keep Palmer. If Palmer holds true to his statement and retires, then Brown says the team will just put in Andy Dalton. He also added that Palmer would be the starter if he stayed. I think the Bengals need to move on and trade Palmer. They'll also get good value for him as opposed to getting nothing in return. Palmer was terrible at the beginning of the year, but he was great in the last few weeks of the season. Was it injuries or luck? Either way, I think there are going to be teams that will try and give too much for him.


The Carolina Panthers will start Cam Newton when he knows the offense, and when they assemble a solid supporting cast around him. Read: get another receiver to play next to Steve Smith. They will make a QB competition with Newton and Clausen, and Newton will act more of a game manager when he first plays. Yeah, they're going to play John Fox ball early on.

The Dallas Cowboys probably won't release Roy Williams, and I honestly wouldn't either. Why? Because there's this thing called trading where you can get something in return. Williams is way too expensive for a receiver who is only average. The Cowboys would also have to give about 12 million dollars to him if they released Williams. Yeah, not happening. Williams is a solid red zone target who can have that occasional big game when he and Romo click.


Barry Cofield wants a new and long-term deal. The defensive tackle is set to be a free agent, and the Giants should grant his request. He's one of the most vocal leaders in the NFL who is also a force on the line for the G-Men. Pay the man and give him a deal that gives him some security; he's earned it.

Mike Sims-Walker is good friends with Brandon Marshall, and he wants to join him in South Beach. I don't think the Dolphins should sign Sims-Walker because he's too similar to Marshall. They're both athletic possession receivers. I think the Fins need to sign a deep threat instead. It's not that I think Sims-Walker is a poor player. It's just that he's not the type of player the team needs. Sims-Walker is a very talented, but also very a inconsistent receiver who struggles against press coverage.

Carson isn't going to retire. That just wouldn't be wise. But I also believe he would sit for the Bengals if they happened to hold onto him. Then again - money is the deciding factor and that's up to Carson's financial situation.

Roy Williams....ehhh, I don't think the Cowboys could get much for him in a trade. Like you said he's an average player and for some reason gets paid much more than he should. Either the Cowboys will shell out a good deal of money for i.m.o. a below-average receiver or they'll simply let him go.

Looking forward to the season, hoping they can get matters solved this week! The Bengals do indeed need to trade Palmer and get something else. Wonder what Moss will do this year if anything. Great stuff

I think the Cowboys would much rather pay Williams for playing than pay 12 million dollars for doing nothing. I bet Jerry Jones would agree. When teams trade in the NFL, they trade their players for draft picks. I think the Cowboys could get a late draft pick for him. It ain't much, but it's better than nothing.
