truth on hold Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 if this is true skins will make london a rich man and all their hyping he just might make that probowl he desperately wants too. FLETCHER OFF THE MARKET? One of the hot rumors in Indy is that Bills linebacker London Fletcher already has struck a deal with the Washington Redskins. Fletcher, a nine-year veteran who has played with the Rams and the Bills, was believed to be a target of the Redskins and the Lions, and possibly others. Of course, even if the 'Skins and Fletcher have a deal, it doesn't mean that the arrangement is binding. Since any contact between a pending free agent and a different team is prohibited, there can be no binding contract at this point. Last year, it was widely believed that the Eagles had an agreement in principle with center LeCharles Bentley, who made a beeline for Cleveland once the free-agency period started. http://www.profootballtalk.com/rumormill.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I take PFT with a grain of salt (along with a lime and some tequilla) That said Free Agency doesn't start until the 2nd, so any agreements before that is tampering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ans4e64 Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Last year, it was widely believed that the Eagles had an agreement in principle with center LeCharles Bentley, who made a beeline for Cleveland once the free-agency period started. http://www.profootballtalk.com/rumormill.htm That was in fact, true. I am close to someone in the Eagles organization. They were absolutely shocked when he booked for Cleveland. He was at the Eagles facility almost every day. Also the Eagles also had a deal for Javon Walker before the Broncos up'ed their anty at the last possible minute. Walker was all around Philly and was even in the facility with other players. Stuff like this proves nothing is garuanteed until the signature is actually on the paper. All in all I hope London strikes rich, he deserves it.

MadBuffaloDisease Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Everything I heard is that Bentley wanted to play for the Browns because it was his hometown. Maybe he was playing the Eagles all along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBuffaloDisease Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 would bills get draft picks if this is in fact deemed tampering? Unlike with the McGahee thing, no way to prove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsCelticsAngelsBama Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 would bills get draft picks if this is in fact deemed tampering? I think if there is tampering, the Redskins could lose a draft pick but no picks would be given to the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 its not tampering since London is NOT under contract with us. McGahee IS under contract with us so it is tampering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanInSouthBuffalo Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 its not tampering since London is NOT under contract with us. McGahee IS under contract with us so it is tampering. He's not a free agent until the period begins. The only team that can legally talk to him right now is the Bills, so it would be tampering.
