There are many surprised people to see Quentin Jammer still on the free agency market instead of getting ready for a season with a team. The San Diego Chargers haven’t renewed his contract, and for now, have made no public intention heard about their desire to bring him back, although considering their situation, they have to be thinking it somewhere in the back of their minds.

The Chicago Bears begin and end their planning for the next season with their defense, but it seems that even this far into the off-season, they’re a little bit thin when the interior of their defensive line is concerned, which means they might take a look at the remaining free agents and try and make a grab for either Richard Seymour or Casey Hampton.

While some people thought that having Charles Woodson play in the state of Michigan (where he attended college) once again sounded like a good idea. But the Detroit Lions have a pretty talented bunch of defensive backs, and haven’t been mentioned along with the Denver Broncos, Oakland Raiders, Carolina Panthers and New York Giants who have shown a real interest in him, and for good reason.

Despite giving Michael Vick a one-year reconstructed deal worth $10 million, it’s not a certainty that he’ll be the starting quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles. They like what they’re seeing early on from Matt Barkley, but it’s not him Vick has to worry about. Nick Foles is splitting the first team reps at QB, which means there’s a chance he hasn’t started his last game for the team last season. More
There’s an unwritten rule that you don’t pay two wide receivers a #1 guy’s salary, which means that the New York Giants aren’t just making life difficult for Victor Cruz because they want to low-ball him, but they’re considering the contract they’re going to need to give Hakeem Nicks when the time comes, and they see him, despite his less impressive numbers, as their top receiver for the next few years.

After throwing for over 4000 yards last season (the first time in his career), it’s hard to believe Josh Freeman will somehow lose his starting quarterback job to rookie Mike Glennon. Still, Greg Schiano drafted the former North Carolina State QB for a reason, and there’s a chance that by the end of the season, or possibly even earlier if things go really bad, we might see the Tampa Bay Buccaneers making a change.

When Rob Gronkowski is healthy, he might be the best tight end in the NFL. He makes Tom Brady and the New England Patriots very difficult to beat, but it looks like that scenario is becoming something of a fantasy one, as Gronkowski might be heading towards a back surgery, in addition to his fourth operation on his broken arm, making him damaged goods before he enters his fourth NFL season.

How much is there left in Peyton Manning? The early parts of last season suggested that the Denver Broncos took too much of a gamble, but things changed back to normal from week 6 and onward. Things went back to normal in the playoffs as well, as the Broncos lost a home game in the AFC divisional playoff game. Manning knows how that feels all too well. More
No team can succeed without a pass-rush, and losing Melvin Ingram, the player the San Diego Chargers were planning to use as their premier pass-rusher next season, forced them to dive into the free agency market once again, hoping to still find something worth paying for. Dwight Freeney is past his prime and doesn’t operate well in a 3-4 defense, but he still is the best possible solution for a bad situation. More
With Chris Clemons recovering from a knee injury, second-year player Bruce Irvin was supposed to take over the position, backed up by 8 sacks during his rookie season. Now, the Seattle Seahawks signing both Cliff Avril and Michael Bennett and overloading the pass-rushing situation, as Irvin became another player in a long list of Seahawks members suspended under terms of the performance-enhancing drug policy.
