Because the free agency threads fill up fast and get jumbled I am starting a new one for Day 5. I will do so as necessary or until I get tired of making a new one. To kick this one off I will start with a few that I haven't seen reported on our site yet. They could be old news but oh well. Here we go:
Eagles traded Reggie Brown to the Tampa Bucs for their 2011 sixth round pick.
Seattle QB Seneca Wallace Traded To The Browns, Sorry Troy Smith.
Raiders cut Javon Walker and Greg Ellis
Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens visiting the Bengals.

Detroit Lions get CB Chris Houston from Atlanta for Detroits 2010 sixth-round pick and swapped fifth-rounders, so Atlanta gets second pick the 5th round for their pick in the same round (18th).
Detroit also got WR Johnathan Wade from the Rams. Don’t know, nor do I care what thet erms were.

Rumor
Leon Washington talking to the Niners
"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty." - Winston Churchill
Jets expected to match any offer to Washington
"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty." - Winston Churchill
Considering...
that Leon is still not completely healed (based on what I am reading on various Jets blogs), I wouldn’t expect him to get a serious offer until closer to the end of free agency and then only after a very thorough examination.
A second rounder for a part time back in a draft with several good backs available isn’t that bad a deal though.
I may be old but I... oh d*mn, I forgot what I was going to say.

I'm surprised about Jones
And glad no one is talking to Westbrook

Rumor
I am still available to any NFL team if they are looking for someone with a very similar skill set to Matt Spaeth. Just putting it out there.
