— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 9, 2017
3:04pm Dylan Gwinn: Monster move
Buccaneers reached agreement with DeSean Jackson on a three-year, $35-million contract that includes $20 million guaranteed, per sources.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 9, 2017
2:58pm Dylan Gwinn: Could it be Romo time? The move clears 10 million in cap space.
The #Texans traded a 2nd rounder and Brock to the #Browns, and the teams swapped comp picks — 4th and 6th rounders. A salary cap dump
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 9, 2017
2:15pm Dylan Gwinn: I’m guessing not to the Redskins.
Tony Romo is now expected to be traded rather than released. The Cowboys believe they have a trade that will work for Romo, per @mortreport. pic.twitter.com/acjKXA5AIk

1:09pm Dylan Gwinn: Solid pickup for the Broncos. He gave up zero sacks last year.
Can confirm as @MikeGarafolo reported, G Ronald Leary to the Broncos.
— James Palmer (@JamesPalmerTV) March 9, 2017
12:15pm Dylan Gwinn: Huge pickup for a defense in need of solidifying the secondary.
The #Jaguars are closing in on a deal for former #Texans CB AJ Bouye, per @JamesPalmerTV and me. They are bringing it.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 9, 2017
11:47am Dylan Gwinn: #1 corner on the #1 defense in the league last year.
Texans have been informed by agent Fred Lyles that A.J. Bouye will be leaving to sign with another team
— Aaron Wilson (@AaronWilson_NFL) March 9, 2017
9:26am Dylan Gwinn: Mother of God.
The New England Patriots are considering trading Malcolm Butler to the New Orleans Saints for Brandin Cooks per sources
— Dianna Russini (@diannaESPN) March 9, 2017
9:13am Dylan Gwinn: What is wrong with the Bears?
Bears set to sign Mike Glennon to a deal at close to $15M APY. Others (NYJ, Buf) kicked tires in $8M-$10M APY range, bailed when price rose.
— Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) March 9, 2017
8:04am Dylan Gwinn: Live shot at Foxborough as the prospect of landing Stephon Gilmore sets in.
7:59am Dylan Gwinn: So. Much. Winning.
So Patriots expected to land top free-agent CB Stephon Gilmore.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 9, 2017
7:55am Dylan Gwinn: Current Redskins mood at the prospect of losing DeSean Jackson AND Pierre Garcon.
7:52am Dylan Gwinn: DeSean Jackson, to go along with Mike Evans and Jameis Winston? Watch out, Atlanta.
Former Washington WR DeSean Jackson expects to sign with Tampa assuming no breakdown in final negotiations,… https://t.co/brYefpKUUq
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 9, 2017
5:13am Dylan Gwinn: When healthy, one of the more dynamic players in the game.
Source: The #Ravens are signing former #Chargers RB Danny Woodhead. He’s fully healthy after ACL surgery in 2016. Big pickup.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 9, 2017
5:12am Dylan Gwinn: Nice young target for Tannehill. Adam Gase has something brewing in Miami. In a year where New England is replacing seven defensive starters, AFC East could get very interesting indeed.
The #Dolphins are re-signing WR Kenny Stills to a 4 year contract worth $32M, source said. He gets $20M guaranteed.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 9, 2017
5:08am Dylan Gwinn: Panthers starting to realize they need to do a better job of protecting Cam Newton. Matt Kalil isn’t very good. Then again, this isn’t a good draft class for offensive linemen either. Had to do something, this is something.
Former Vikings’ OT Matt Kalil expected to sign with brother Ryan’s Panthers if no snags in final talks, per sources. Kalil brother reunion.

4:51pm Dylan Gwinn: Live shot of the #49ers front office
4:40pm Dylan Gwinn: Wow. Someone needs to tell John Lynch people don’t pay full backs like this anymore.
The #49ers are giving former #Ravens FB Kyle Juszczyk a 4-year deal worth $21M, source said. #fullbacks
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 8, 2017
4:20pm Dylan Gwinn: This gives the Patriots that super-athletic tight end they need if Martellus Bennett leaves. Having another big time, athletic TE is vital given Gronkowski’s injury history.
Details on the #Patriots trade for #Colts TE Dwayne Allen: A 4th rounder goes to the #Colts and #Pats get Allen & a 6th back.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 8, 2017
3:57pm Dylan Gwinn: Current Cowboys fan mood #Romo
3:21pm Dylan Gwinn: Second big FA WR add if the day for San Francisco. That’s a lot of speed for Brian Hoyer, Kirk Cousins, or whoever ends up playing QB for the 49ers.
More #49ers news: #Bills WR Marquise Goodwin is headed to the #49ers. Kyle Shanahan loves speed.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 8, 2017
2:49pm Dylan Gwinn: It’s never good when your general manager isn’t allowed to do general manager things.
Sources: GM no longer part of Redskins’ calls… agent meeting with team. https://t.co/mNO8qTjnx5
— John Keim (@john_keim) March 8, 2017
2:46pm Dylan Gwinn: Good deal for Buffalo. Not a bad QB when healthy. Can still draft and develop a QB if they want. While clearing money for other needs.
Buffalo is keeping Tyrod Taylor on a restructured contract, per sources.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 8, 2017
2:45pm Dylan Gwinn: No surprise here. But still stunning to actually see. Josh McCown visited with the Cowboys earlier today.
Cowboys are releasing Tony Romo on Thursday, sources tell @toddarcher and me.
Let the Romo recruiting in Houston and Denver begin.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 8, 2017
1:02pm Dylan Gwinn: Expect this for offensive linemen. This is a very weak OL draft. Teams will pay and overpay for guys in the trenches.
The #Lions and OT Ricky Wagner have agreed in principle on a contract, source said. It will eclipse $9M per year, setting a new market.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 8, 2017
12:00pm Dylan Gwinn: It should be large. He’s amassed 23.5 sacks in the last 2 seasons.
Sources: The #AZCardinals and franchised tagged pass-rusher Chandler Jones are finalizing a 5-year extension. Going to be large.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 8, 2017

When Pierre Garcon finalizes deal with 49ers, as expected, league sources believe he will make $16 million in first year.
— Chris Mortensen (@mortreport) March 8, 2017
