We Finally Have A Deal
That didn't take long, commish.
Jay Glazer is reporting the NFL and NFLPA have reached an agreement on a new collective bargaining agreement, which will put an end to the lockout Tuesday.
The players still have to vote to approve the deal, but that’s said to be a formality. Owners approved the agreement last week.
Free agency will begin Friday evening, but teams will be allowed to negotiate contracts with free agents and can sign rookies and undrafted free agents beginning tomorrow. Trades will also be allowed Tuesday.
Training camps will begin opening around the league Wednesday and continue to open through Sunday. The Packers will open camp Friday.
The next week should be borderline insane.

A-Rodge should find someone worth spending long-term with before some “tail” gets him in trouble. Dude isn’t 24 anymore.
This all worked out great for the Packers. Any team that needs immediate help from rookies or free agents is going to be hurting for the first month of the season.
