Brown to hit hte market

BY BRAD BIGGS bbiggs@suntimes.com

Mike Brown, the heart and soul of the Bears for the last nine seasons, was informed Friday that the team will not make him a contract offer.

Injuries knocked Brown out of 43 games from 2004 through 2007, and the decision comes as no surprise after general manager Jerry Angelo admitted he was ready to move on without Brown a year ago. The Bears must find at least one safety in free agency or the draft.

Bengals free-agent wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh could be playing elsewhere next season. Indications are that Cincinnati won’t be able to keep him off the open market, an NFL source said Thursday., Cincinnati could apply the franchise tag on Houshmandzadeh, 31, to restrict his ability to leave, but it does not appear they plan to do so. Franchising Houshmandzadeh would cost them $9.88 million against the 2009 salary cap. Houshmandzadeh also told the Dayton Daily News that he would boycott offseason workouts and be unhappy if the team designated him with the franchise tag.

"The Cardinals and the agent for inside linebacker Karlos Dansby have opened negotiations for a new contract in the hopes a deal can be struck before free agency begins at the end of the month. Agent Kirk Wood met with General Manager Rod Graves during the playoffs, Wood said, and the two have talked on the phone since. Wood said negotiations are in the preliminary stages and declined to discuss details.

Dansby played under the franchise tender of $8.065 million last season and is believed to be seeking a deal worth more than the six-year, $42 million contract that Calvin Pace signed with the Jets last spring. That contract included about $20 million guaranteed.

The Cardinals could use the franchise tag on Dansby again, guaranteeing him about $9.7 million in 2009, but severely restricting his options in free agency."

Good read on Brown - Center

http://masnsports.com/2009/01/what-can-brown-do-for-you.html
 
check out hte video i just posted on dansby. hes easily worth a 8 a year
 
I would be very happy with Dansby and Brown as our two "major" signings. It would fill two massive needs.
 
And it would help us insanely.

Look what long did imagine what a mauler at center can do
 
I can deal with a 6 year/42 million deal for a guy like Dansby.

I think the Trifecta would think that OL is more important than LB, so I'd say they would probably be calling Jason Brown first, "if they haven't already called..." :D shhhhhhh...:oops:

I can see Brown, but signing "two" major FAs??? Nah, don't think they will be able to do that "and" re-sign Carey, Bell, and Crowder/Goodman, and/or Hill...
