Current Set of Rules for Lockout lifting/FA signing/Camp Reporting *Updated 130pm-est

[Kurb]

I'm not understanding this. So you can fly in a UFA tomorrow and start negotiating a deal with them, but they can't sign until Friday? Does that mean that 72 hour exclusive window for signing your own free agents is at the same time that they're being courted by other teams?

BTW, great job kurb.

I'm hearing both ways.

Some say it's just current teams.

Some say its all teams.

This is going to get pretty messy. Look for tampering accusations to be thrown around...

I kind of feel like everyone is going to be tampering. So no one is going to be quick to pull the trigger on calling another team out because everyone will be doing it. Its just going to happen and everyone's going to turn a blind eye.

Jay Glazer, now in contrast to what Schefter just reported about an hour ago, is saying you can't sign anyone until Friday. And there isn't any exclusive negotiation window for your own FAs. Also, said trades can start 12 pm tomorrow, but still, can't sign anyone until Friday, you can only begin negotiating after 12pm tomorrow as well with ANY FA, not just your own.

The press conference will put an end to all questions... Everything right now is pretty much rumor mill.... Don't let "them" (the media) get u for the millionth time this offseason.

But VERY VERY exciting!

This would actually make some sense; I would think they would have to officially re-certify before any contracts were signed. But I'm not sure on this.

you can negotiate contracts you just can't sign them until friday.

Every team needs roughly 90 players for Training Camp.

Every team currently has approx 40 players on their roster.

That's approx 50 signed free agents per team

32X50 = 1600 free agents signed in less than a week....:ack2:

Yesterday I got that feeling of sitting on the couch on a nice fall day with a beer in my hands and bbq on my plate and it made me remember how much I loved football, even if this whole lockout annoyed me and dimmed my interest in the sport. God Damn its good to finally have this garbage over with, can we just play the game now.

Edit: Also cant wait for the most exciting week in NFL offseason history. Will it make all this lockout annoyance worth it?

Honestly, if we haven't already contacted some of our FA's and got deals ready to go we are flat out fuging doing it wrong this time around.
