Big Signings:

OLB Tim Dunn signs with Ohio Valley for 3 yr/36 mil.He turned down a bigger offer from Columbus.

CB Lenny Huff signs with Gainesville for 1 yr/6.56 mil. I overpaid a ton for him but I needed a decent corner. The closest bid was 1 yr 5 mil from Columbus.

DT Roby 5 yr, 65 mil. That be big.

I stand corrected. The Roby signing was Huge. So was the McCabe signing. I think this is the first year where the top 2 FA are gone after period 3.

I offered more money for Roby.

I offered more money for Roby.

Roby has a very strong "wants winner" rating and Yuma was a playoff team. Also Yuma's deal was for a year less and only 7 mil less than yours. Plus 40 million of his contract is guaranteed.

I'm not really complaining. I would not want to play for the Portland Phantoms.

I knew I should have put in one of those stupid 1 year offers for Huff.

[Matt]

Is there an easy way to see who you made offers to? I lost track and don't want to make multiple offers to the same positions.

[Pat]

Go to "continue free-agency" at the top left. Sort by team name.

[tarcone]

Its easier to sort by player name in Continue Free Agency. All the guys you made offers to and your own FA that have offers on them come to the top

I knew I should have put in one of those stupid 1 year offers for Huff.

I always remember that older players want less years and more bonus money. With the exception of the Columbus bid, no one came close to offering the short contracts and big bonus that I gave to Huff. Most of the bids I saw were around the 2 yr, 11 million dollar range.

This move was a no brainer for me. I need a corner. My draft pick isnt high enough to get the top corner in the draft. The next highest rated FA corner available is Dixon Bobro and he is ranked 48 on the available FA list while Huff is rated 7. I paid him a ton but its low risk for me. If he sucks, I wont resign him in 2013. If he's great, I'll franchise him next year.

Vegas cringes to see Roby go to Yuma... had made a large offer on him as well.

Huff played well for us last season, was just worried about his age so decided not to re-sign him..

Thanks for helping out a cop...I know it means a lot to you.

I've just put it out of my mind that you are a cop so we can still be friends.
