Take this with a grain of salt if you will, but considering its the time of year, why not throw a rumor out there to wet our whistles. Rumor, from another board (that I hate by the way) is that Marcus Stroud is coming in tonight and tomorrow night. Can anyone stake out the airport?

When you consder his contract doesn't end until after the 2010 season, I don't think it's to meet with the Bills.

I've also heard Reggie White is rising from his grave to visit the Bills tonight.

Someone go stake out the airport.

Someone go stake out the airport. I know, I know. I e-mailed Mike Florio at Profootballtalk.com to see if he had heard anything or if he would scoop this. We will see if he answers. At least Im trying to get something with meat to it.

There is a FAA rule about zombie's and their inability to take their shoes off, somebody stake out Amtrak.

A league inside source tells me that Tom Brady is getting trade to Atlanta for a couple of Vick's bulldogs, and a draft pick.

I enjoy it I just detest people that make up rumors and/or stories out of nothing. Hey, I dont make up rumors. Plain and simple. Im repeating this one and I never even do that. I think detesting someone whos talking football rumors on a football message board is a bit silly dont you? I know its a hated practice, by the response I will just keep the next rumor to myself. As I said, I am trying to get some credibility to it so its not like Im flinging spam just to do it. Whatever, lesson learned I guess. I will keep the next one to myself... But feel free to go one detesting me if you like.

That's conditional based on Brady's performance as well.

I realize that it's totally probable that this rumor is b.s., but let's have some fun with it anyway...
What player do the Bills have that could be a need for the Jags? Draft pick(s)?
What would it take for such a player?

From www.Rotoworld.com (http://www.Rotoworld.com)

The Jaguars have reportedly given DT Marcus Stroud permission to seek a trade.

He'll find a taker, but the market for a player with possibly career threatening ankle issues and monstrous base salaries shouldn't overwhelm. Stroud was also suspended four games last year for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. Atlanta could take a flier and try to restructure Stroud's deal.

It's not tampering for him to fly anywhere. It's tampering if we're talking to him or his agent.

If it's a FA, yes. If it's a player who has been released or has permission to seek a trade, no. I think the tampering rules are relaxed a bit if it's only within 24 hours imo.

Btw, one of the reasons that there are rumors that the 9ers are out of the Briggs sweepstakes is because they were accused of tampering w/him and don't want to get caught. So they back away from Briggs, according to PFT.com

Edwardsera, I believe the offical version of events was we faxed them an offer at 12:01 AM, wink-wink.

Not you Jan... not you



but i love the offseason. I love the specualtion and I take everything with a grain of salt.

If he is on the trading block he could be very well on his way to Buffalo for a physical etc...

but with his suspension last year and injury concerns I would hope it is a modest offer at best... IF

This comment wasn't an attack on you it was at the person who you read it from. As the minute a guy comes available it seems someone's saying they heard that he's on his way to Buffalo.
