Have any of you seen the Patrick Willis jokes in the form of the Chuck Norris ones? I don't know how many are copied from Chuck Norris because I never really read those, but some of these are hysterical: - Patrick Willis' calendar goes straight from March 31st to April 2nd; no one fools Patrick Willis. - Patrick Willis once visited the Virgin Islands. They are now The Islands. - Patrick Willis' tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried. - Patrick Willis was originally cast as the main character in 24, but was replaced by the producers when he managed to kill every terrorist and save the day in 12 minutes and 37 seconds. - Patrick Willis can speak braille. - Patrick Willis once won a game of Connect Four in 3 moves. - Once a cobra bit Patrick Willis' leg. After five days of excruciating pain, the cobra died. - Patrick Willis can delete the Recycling Bin. - If it looks like chicken, tastes like chicken, and feels like chicken but Patrick Willis says its beef, then it's f------ beef. - Patrick Willis doesn't read books. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants. - If you play Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" backwards, you will hear Patrick Willis banging your sister. - Patrick Willis sleeps with a night light. Not because Patrick Willis is afraid of the dark, but the dark is afraid of Patrick Willis - Patrick Willis' dog is trained to pick up his own poop because Patrick Willis will not take s--- from anyone. - Patrick Willis can kill two stones with one bird. - Patrick Willis was once on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune and was the first to spin. The next 29 minutes of the show consisted of everyone standing around awkwardly, waiting for the wheel to stop. - Death once had a near-Patrick Willis experience. - Patrick Willis never retreats, he just attacks in the opposite direction. - Patrick Willis doesn't use pickup lines, he simply says, "Now." forums.49ers.com/messageboard/archive/index.php/t-33398.html

How many fucking WR's do the Jaguars need? Signed Jerry Porter to a six year/$30 million deal. Sheesh. That gives them about ten WR's, haha.
And yeah, I'd expect Faneca to sign with the Jets. His run blocking is excellent, but he's a below-average pass blocker. I love the man though - he was a great Steelers player for many years. I wish him well wherever he may go.

Niners offered Faneca a contract. Id be extremely surprised if they get him.

Ya. was surprised the Niners even offered a deal because they weren't gonna spend 6+ a year on a guard. Shit, even Justin Smiley got like 5 mill per. Its ridiculous.

Id love to have a Madden online league with enough in depth financial and training abilities to make it interesting.

Corey Williams for a second round pick is a great deal for the Packers. He wasn't the starter till Jolly got hurt. He is a great player when his snaps are limited. However, his great production was a from Green Bay's great DL depth (allowing him to always play fresh and rarely get double teamed), and their scheme to apply more pressure with DT since Kampman and Jenkins are both great against the run on the ends. Yup, I loved the deal for us. I hope the packers get Stewart

Porter/Williams/Northcutt/Walker/Broussard/Jones/Williamson Hopefully Porter can come in and be the #1 we've been waiting for. He's put up good numbers on a Raiders team that lacks a good QB. With Garrard he's got 1000+ potential.

Damn, our team is starting to take that next step.
We just signed Drayton Florence from SD, the #1 ranked CB left by ESPN.
He will come in and likely be our nickle back behind Mathis/Williams.

Nice, we just made ANOTHER move.
Traded Stroud to the Bills for an early 3rd and an early 5th.
This is nice considering he wanted a raise, was hurt all year, failed a steroid test, and is 29 years old. Sweet value for a 29 year old DT. I love the moves we've made this offseason.

Brick,Faneca,Mangold,Woody, Moore. Pretty damn strong offensive line, the Jets signed Woody and Calvin Pace today. Pace deal seems like a lot for this guy, but it may turn out good. The guy had a really nice year last year converting to the 3-4.
Robertson was also traded for a 4th and 5th round pick. Jets making a lot of deals.

I love the Robertson deal... he blows in our scheme. Plus the Jets need the cap space after those huge signings.
The Pace signing is iffy but if Parcells wanted him badly I trust that he has to be pretty good.

An LB who goes for 6.5 sacks and like 90 tackles in the same scheme...that's huge, the Jets sorely lacked any kind of pass rush last year. I think it's the biggest move next to Faneca.

It's just eerily similar to the Bryan Thomas situation... the guy has a breakout year in a new scheme in '05 (8.5 sacks), is awarded a new contracts, and disappears the next year.
I also hope the Pace signing doesn't discourage Tannenbaum/Mangini from drafting Gholston... the dude's a beast.

The defense flat out needed players last year, and if a guy had a season as the prototype LB for a 3-4, I'm happy.

Big Ben got his nice extension today. It's damn nice knowing he'll be around until 2015.
Also, the Steelers signed Mewelde Moore. It's certainly not an impact signing, but it does fill a few needs for the Steelers. We needed a guy that could catch out of the backfield and Moore can do that. He is also a good PR/KR'er, and we really need a solid guy back there. I like this signing for us.

wtf? Anderson signed with a fucking big contract?
He sucks, I saw him play at tOSU. He gets a shitload of yards and tds, but even more interceptions.
He holds the pac-10 record for most career interceptions.
