Kris Jenkins goes to the Jets for a first and third. Wow, seems sorta steep. Derek Anderson rejects the Browneyes' 3/$20/$10 deal. Think he also nets a first and third if someone else gets him. Not that anyone was talking Vilma in the 3-4, but:

Big news for the Browns to get Corey Williams. That's a nice pickup.
More craziness:

The Jets would send DT Dewayne Robertson to the Broncos, the Broncos would send CB Domonique Foxworth and a second-round draft pick to the Lions and the Lions would send DT Shaun Rogers to the Jets.

Jackson shaky with Vikes?

Baltimore Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome announced Thursday, Feb. 28, that the team released C Mike Flynn.

Raiders | Team re-signs Kelly
Thu, 28 Feb 2008 11:57:33 -0800
Scout.com reports the Oakland Raiders re-signed DL Tommy Kelly to a seven-year deal worth as much as $50.5 million Thursday, Feb. 28.
Schefter on NFL Network saying guys like Berrian and Gib Wilson will be getting paid. Heck, even Madieu Williams will likely be out of our reach. One guy I thought might work, Drayton Florence from SD. Could be a utility DB, play package stuff, can fill in at S or CB. Got beaten out at CB by Cromartie, but that's not saying DF is bad. I see him as better than Carter, at least.
A lot going on. We'll wait till some dust settles, of course, what with the Starks and Ben stuff. Wouldn't mind someone taking Essex away and giving us a R3 pick.
