The NFL is creeping back in already, giddy up...

[StickierBuns]

March 3rd is the deadline for franchise and transition players....that's next Tuesday already. Then during the period beginning at 12:00 noon, ET, on March 9th and ending at 3:59:59 p.m. ET, on March 11th, clubs are permitted to contact, and enter into contract negotiations with the certified agents of players who will become unrestricted free agents upon the expiration of their 2025 player contracts at 4:00 p.m. ET, on March 12. And then free agency begins officially. 

I would imagine things will heat up tremendously next week rumors-wise, with the more real ones as we get closer to the weekend of the 7th-8th.

The #Ravens remain hopeful they can get a deal done with C Tyler Linderbaum before he reaches the open market, just like they did last year with LT Ronnie Stanley, per sources.

Linderbaum is generating a ton of buzz from teams I’ve spoken to. If he reaches the open market, the expectation is he could land a deal north of $22M per year.

One executive told me: “The center is the extension of the coach for most of these teams, and he’s 25, a 3-time Pro Bowler, and just getting started in his career.”

#Packers free agent QB Malik Willis is in demand, as expected, and interested teams I’ve spoken to at the Combine in Indianapolis believe him getting at least $30M per year is a foregone conclusion.

Sources: The #Falcons informed former Pro Bowl special-teamer KhaDarel Hodge that he will be released.

Hodge spent four years in Atlanta, including that Pro Bowl season in 2024.

Don't disagree. They don't play QBs until they're ready. They're going to lose Willis, but they signed 3rd round veteran Desmond Ridder in January, and a few weeks ago signed Kyle McCord, the Buckeye QB who was drafted by the Eagles in the 6th round last year, looked pretty good in training camp, but ended up getting released in a numbers game after the Eagles acquired—wait for it—Sam Howell from the Vikings. 

I hope the yeller team doesn't get lucky at QB2 again. But there's some Malik Willis-ness to these moves.
