I saw a tweet somewhere that said he and the cowboys aren't close and it likely won't be happening. I wonder how much money he wants? We need him, but he has missed 22 games in the last 3 years so idk...

I imagine it is probably a similar situation as with Desir. Ballard told him to go out and see what he could get on the open market and then hopefully give the Colts the opportunity to match or beat the offer if they want to.

Raiders are going to do the Raiders thing.

In a move that should shock no one, the Oakland Raiders signed LB Vontaze Burfict to a 1 year deal. The contract could be worth up to $5MM if Burfict achieves all incentives.

But hey, practices should be interesting with him and Antonio Brown on the same team.

What is with the Raiders? Seems like every guy with a checkered history ends up in the Raiders' orbit. And it's not like the strategy has worked for them. But they continue down this road despite numerous coaching, front office, and regime changes (and even ownership changes). The only rationale that I can think of is that they know the bad boy image plays well to their fan base and, since the NFL is after all just a business, it generates tremendous profits even if the on-the-field product isn't all that great.

Yep, when Burfict was cut my first thought was future Raider material.

He must be looking to get more pay than he's worth. The perpetually mediocre Bucs won't overpay, either.

Bears FA OLB Aaron Lynch will visit with the Colts tomorrow. He has already visited with Oakland and Seattle this week.
