Where, along with all of the other free agents does Nnamdi land in the next 10 days?

Also, Vince...empty your voice mailbox, its full, so we can fill it back up with messages and have you not ever listen to them.

Per ESPN dumped it's more likely that money will be used to resign Doug Free and grab a Safety.

Chris Mortenson is stroking some Texans dick today, however. "Nnamdi makes the Texans superbowl contenders"- Id be as excited as the next guy, but that seems a little extreme
This early.

Doug Free didn't come easy-


"Doug Free certainly didn't live up to his nomenclature. Dallas was able to retain last year's starting left tackle according to the National Football Post .

NFP is also reporting the deal is 4 years for $32 million dollars.

Earlier in the day, it was reported Free's services were in great demand by the Buccaneers as well, and the leverage between Tampa Bay and Dallas really drove up Free's asking price.

With Free re-signing in Big D, it leaves a void for Tampa Bay who has concentrated primarily on their draft picks at the start of free agency.

Right tackle is still an issues for the Bucs with the uncertain future of Jeremy Trueblood and James Lee."

8 million a year was the max Jerry was going to spend so he got what he wanted. Look for them to restructure contracts and free up 17 million

Who knows man, that seems to be the way the wind is blowing right now. However, my fear, at the moment, is Nnamdi is using the Texans to just drive up his price.

Read that would we know something by the end of the business day today.

Houston signs CB Jonathon Joseph to a five year deal.

Not Nnamdi, but if we can go get a solid Safety now, I'll be happy all the same.

Ya i would agree, i have no idea what Dallas is doing.. They seem to just be cutting players and not signing any other free agents but their own.

Tough to say, but it looks like NNamdi will be a Jet. Nasty secondary.

John Clayton reporting, and this link: http://espn.go.com/blog/afcwest/post/_/id/29494/asomugha-watch-drags-on

Texans out. Guess Nnamdi was really looking for more than money. Gotta question Houston's management though right? First keeping Kubiak, and then not going hard after Nnamdi. Seemed like a perfect fit.

Yes, keeping Kubiak was questionable, however, I am really happy with how the texans played this one.

They made the offer to Nnamdi, clearly, but he is taking his sweet ass time. Texans have other needs to address, that by waiting on Nnamdi, are held hostage.

Jonathon Joseph is a stud adn as of late last night, the Texans also signed S Danieal Manning (a signing that would not have been possible if Nnamdi came over).

Now lets see if they can manage to resign Vonte Leach.

Overall, I'm happy.

UPDATE XVI: Michael Lombardi of NFL.com reports that we're down to two:

"Just updated the Nnamdi situation -- 49ers telling people they are out... Right now, Dallas and Jets, Ryan brothers are battling. Stay tuned."

Jesus...are the cowboys really going to land him?

#Texans DT Amobi Okoye for CB Asante Samuel? Makes sense, Houston switching 2 a 3-4 need for CB, we know the #Eagles good problem at CB now.

Sources indicate Texans and Eagles are in talks regarding Amobi Okoye #seeyaasante

Oh, hot damn!
