Always whoever is a fan of NFL football are already itching for the new season of football to start as soon as possible which I absolutely don’t blame them as I am one of the people who are wishing that the new season for football would hurry the heck up so that we can watch our favorite teams playing on either television or at some stadiums that our favorite team would be playing at and rooting for as many as wins our teams can get. Even though the football season may be over for now for a few months, we still gets on the edge for football especially in NFL, I am talking about resigning, trading, free agents signing, draft and outside of the draft as some of NFL teams signs some players that aren’t in draft. Besides the draft we have nerve-wrecking situations with our favorite teams especially the resigning because there are some of the best players that have played for our favorite teams about to become free agents on the market for other teams to sign away from our favorite teams which that is never a good thing depending on some of the players that we needs the most and letting players in our favorite teams that are in their prime to walk away to another team can be unforgiving especially to us the fans.
I think at some times that for some of us especially myself we worry about the resigning more than worrying about who we are going to get in the draft as the players from the draft have zero experience at the level of football that NFL is in and letting our veterans players to walk away to different team cannot be easily replaced by any players that we retain from the draft so resigning our favorite teams players are more important than the players from the draft although the players from the draft definitely can be worthy down the road to replace our veterans but definitely not right away as they would need to practice a few years before we feel comfortable to let our veterans players to walk away then be replaced by the players we drafted a few years ago.
Johnny Manziel is the perfect example here as Browns signed him from last year draft to be their quarterback then put Johnny Manziel on the field to quarterback the team right away have proved nothing but miserably failure and that is a huge mistake on the Cleveland Browns part of throwing inexperienced quarterback out on the field straight from the draft stage. Of course last year Johnny Manziel were in at least top 3 quarterbacks but that was on college level though, not NFL level as both NFL and college levels are completely different. It is very rare that anyone can succeed playing on the field in NFL straight from the draft which apparently Cleveland Browns didn’t realize that which that was a bit of surprise as I would figure that Cleveland Browns would be smart enough to not to put a player on the field that is freshed out of draft and I certainly hope that Cleveland Browns learned the lesson so to not ever putting a player that is just came off the stage at draft on the field right away again unless Browns would like to keep up with ugly record of many loses for a few of years.
In case if you are wondering if Cleveland Browns are my favorite team, the answer is absolutely not and my favorite team is Green Bay Packers as Packers are the team that I chosen to call the team my favorite ever since I born – well not exactly ever since I was born but ever since I know what football is. Packers have a few of players that are becoming free agents that is actually considered to be top of the players in NFL, it seems that Packers creates the best players and that have proved considering that Packers general manager knows what he is doing for Packers thankfully. The players from Packers that are about to become free agents (I only will mention the important ones – but if you interest in the rest then here’s the list) Randall Cobb (WR), Jarrett Boykin (WR), Matt Flynn (QB), Bryan Bulaga (OT), John Kuhn (FB), B.J. Raji (NT), Scott Tolzien (QB) and Tramon Williams (CB). Great news is that Packers have finally resigned Randall Cobb at wide receiver at 40 million dollars with 4 years contract which that’s something that the fans of Packers are very relieved with that because we thought that we wasn’t able to resign Randall Cobb as Randall Cobb is Packers number 2 wide receiver and Randall Cobb is one of the most powerful wide receivers in the NFL along Packers number one wide receiver Jordy Nelson. But we the fans of Packers aren’t fully relieved though at the moment as we still worry about one more player that is very important to the Packers that’s almost as important as resigning Randall Cobb and that is Bryan Bulaga which is Packers veteran who is one of very powerful offensive tackle. Fans of Packers are very nervous with the possibility of losing Bryan Bulaga as he would be extremely hard to replace but other than that I believe the rest of players are unnecessary although it would definitely be great to keep Jarrett Boykin, John Kuhn and Tramon Williams. Packers have released one of our veteran player A.J. Hawks which is actually a very smart move by Packers because unfortunately A.J. Hawks aren’t in his prime anymore that he once was but we are definitely very thankful for all of his time in Packers that gave us the Superbowl ring but for a couple of the years he have proved that his time ran out and wish him nothing but the best for his future. Now only so far that Packers have made a mistake was to resign Scott Tolzien for another year at backup quarterback instead of Matt Flynn who Packers have bought back to save the Packers season to the playoff last season when Aaron Rodgers was recovering his collarbone injury. Should have resigned Matt Flynn instead of Scott Tolzien as the best quarterback in NFL to back up for because Matt Flynn has proved every chances he had that he is a great backup quarterback since Matt Flynn was the one who saved Packers season that led Packers into playoff before Aaron Rodgers returned.
I have read the news on NFL a while now as I am keeping my eyes on what is happening in the NFL but one thing that caught my attention is that one of the dirtiest player of the NFL Ndamukong Suh is signed with Miami Dolphins for whopping $116 million dollars which obviously it shown that Ndamukong Suh choose money over loyalty unlike Randall Cobb as Randall Cobb turned down several million dollars as he wants to be resigned with Packers but with the price that he deserved which he certainly got it which I think that Packers definitely made the right decision. The running back Frank Gore from San Francisco 49ers is now free agents which was almost signed with Philadelphia Eagles but then he now is re-thinking about signing with Eagles as there is another team that is interests in Frank Gore and that is the Indianapolis Colts which it is the team that Frank Gore I believe would like to sign with instead but I believe Eagles is trying to offer more money so it is now up to Frank Gore to decide which he would prefer to be signed with by Tuesday (tomorrow). Cleveland Browns is losing Brian Hoyer who were their starting quarterback this past season, he is set to be signed with Houston Texans as they are wanting him but Houston Texans aren’t the only team that has a lot of interests in Brian Hoyer as New York Jets interests in him too so Brian Hoyer is practically in the decision of which the team he would like to quarterback for the next season and for the sake of Texans fans I sure hope that Texans don’t sign him otherwise it would be a bad move on Texans part when they could get a better quarterback especially from either draft or in free agents market. Former Packers LB A.J. Hawks is set to visit Cincinnati Bengals which it would make more sense especially for the skills from A.J. Hawks but I apologize to say this is that Hawks will not help Bengals to win much of games in the next season as A.J. Hawks is no longer in his prime but you never know though until we witness it ourselves when the football season comes back.
Mark Sanchez is going back to Philadelphia Eagles as they have signed Mark Sanchez on two years contract for maximum value of $16 million dollars which isn’t too bad I think, I don’t know how Eagles fans are feeling about Mark Sanchez coming back to the Eagles as Mark Sanchez have only seen a little success at the quarterback for Eagles in the past. Seattle Seahawks have lost one of their best player who helped Seattle Seahawk to two Superbowl in two-year row only winning one out of the two which is an impressive feat in my opinion but that player is Byron Maxwell at secondary cornerback and he have signed with another team which that would be Philadelphia Eagles as their cornerback. LeSean McCoy who have been running back for Philadelphia Eagles a few seasons, LeSean McCoy is considered one of the fastest running back in the NFL is leaving Philadelphia Eagles and is signed with Buffalo Bills as their new running back on five years contract for $40 million dollars total in all of five years. Chicago Bears have traded Brandon Marshall to New York Jets for fifth round pick in return which is alright deal and Chicago Bears traded him due to his attitude in the locker room at Chicago Bears often so apparently the Bears got tired of that as it seems.
There are a few more of good free agents to keep your eyes out on especially for Tuesday coming up (tomorrow) to see who the rest of the free agents signs up with or if they are to be resigned with the teams they have played with in the past and I certainly hoping that my team Green Bay Packers will also resign Bryan Bulaga instead of letting another team to get him. For the rest of free agents and the news on the free agents in case if you are interested in to read more then click this link which will take you to the page of the official NFL website to see who is the free agents. Right now the winners would be that Randall Cobb resigning with Green Bay Packers and Suh signing with another team Miami Dolphins which is something that I am very interested in seeing where that goes with him being in Miami Dolphins uniform but I bet that makes some of Dolphins fans a bit happy because I admits that Suh is actually smart play-calling on the defensive side but does it very dirty though.
That is all for now but I am interest in some of your opinions on a few of free agents and the draft as well. I am wondering who is your favorite team and who you are hoping that your team to resign to be playing for your team again or who in free agents market that you would like to see signing with your favorite team? Leave a comment below to let me know and I will be more than happy to respond but also I would like to hear some of your opinions about some of the players signing with other teams or some teams resigning because obviously it’s a bit of odd especially how a couple of teams are going with signing some players in the free agents market such as Suh with Dolphins or Brian Hoyer with Houston Texans or New York Jets. Thank you very much for reading this article and be sure to keep checking back here to see if I am writing another article which I am hoping to do so in a few of days if I have the time to do so as I rarely do lately. Please be safe wherever all of you are at or be safe with whatever that all of you are planning on to do for the night, stay awesome my friends!
