2008 Free Agency Tracker Thread

The St. Petersburg Times "has it on good authority" that free agent Asante Samuel will sign with the Eagles.

In the last hour, there were all kinds of unsubstantiated reports coming out of Philly that the sides have a deal in place. The Birds may wait a few more hours or (ugh) until tomorrow to announce the agreement formally.

As free agency began Friday at 12:00 AM ET, the Patriots had no deal in place with Randy Moss, according to ESPN's John Clayton.

The 6'4 wideout with 4.3 speed and a 40'' vertical who scored 23 TDs last season is officially open to the highest bidder. The Patriots shouldn't be out of the picture, but the 31-year-old may as well look around.

The Bears, Lions, and Saints are "believed to have the strongest interest" in free agent Michael Turner, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.

Chicago isn't in great shape under the cap, but he'd probably like to play in his hometown. The Union-Trib suggests that Turner won't sign during the first wave of free agency with teams hesitant due to an RB-rich draft class

The Jets are reportedly poised to make free agent G Alan Faneca a deal averaging $8 million per season.

Interestingly, the NY Daily News notes that the Jets are expected to "outbid the Rams and 49ers," neither of which we've heard linked to Faneca. Niners GM Scot McCloughan is outspokenly opposed to giving guards monster contracts. The Rams are needy there, but in poor salary cap condition.
