I figured it might be good to have a thread where we consolidate the rapid free agency activity. I will map where each UFA goes and list players we pick up. Jets UFAs: Wayne Hunter - Resigned Nick Folk - Resigned Santonio Holmes - Resigned Eric Smith - Resigned Rob Turner - Resigned(RFA) Antonio Cromartie - Resigned James Ihedigbo - Offer made by Jets Shaun Ellis - Offer made by Jets Lance Laury Trevor Pryce Tony Richardson Braylon Edwards - Probably not coming back Brodney Pool - Probably not coming back Brad Smith - Buffalo Ben Hartsock - Carolina Kellen Clemens - Washington Steve Weatherford - Giants Drew Coleman - Jaguars Damien Woody - Retired Kris Jenkins - Retired Jason Taylor - Fish FAs acquired: Donald Strickland - Signed Plaxico Burress - Signed DaJuan Morgan - Signed Derrick Mason - Signed Players acquired by trade: UDFAs: Josh Baker TE Missouri State Nick Bellore C.

Cool. (Prediction thread: http://forums.theganggreen.com/showthread.php?t=66589) Any recommendations on where/who may break the news first? I need to do something on Twitter other than anually* abuse Charity Washington. * = not anally.
Wow Osi Umenyora might be cut, we might have to sign him cuz he is a good pass rusher. And Schefter said the Jets are the top team to sign Nnamdi holy fuck. This is going to be wild. CANT WAIT
Where did Schefter tweet that about Aso? I'm not seeing it on my feed or his page. As excited as I am about today, I'm equally as worried.
He talked about it on SNY last night. About how if it was between us and another team not sniffing greatness he would chose us over the bigger pay day.
Can you darksiders imagine the worst case scenario? We lose all of our top free agents and can only get scrubs to sign here because the players are trying to teach us a lesson.

I'm finding https://twitter.com/#!/NFLDraftInsider to be a good source. I'd prefer to keep the speculation in the dozen other FA threads and try to just talk about deals here. I know, jousting at windmills...
