Pete Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 T minus 27 hours until FA negotiations begin! Then it’s on like donkey Kong! March 14-16: Legal negotiation window ahead of free agency. March 16 (4 p.m. ET): 2022 NFL League Year begins. Teams must be under the salary cap. Trading period and free agency open. Deadline to submit qualifying offers to restricted free agents and exclusive rights free agents. Teams must exercise contract options for 2022. April 4: Teams with new head coaches can begin offseason workout programs. April 18: Teams with returning head coaches can begin offseason workout programs. April 22: Last day of restricted free agent signing period. April 28-30: 2022 NFL Draft from Las Vegas. July 15: Deadline for teams and franchise tagged players to sign multi-year contract extension. I’m hoping Chandler Jones is on Beanes speed dial 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and we can agree with terms noon tomorrow with Chandler Jones for example and make it official on 16. It is the legal tampering period Tomorrow you will hear talking heads say "so and so agreed to terms with team" You don't start negotiating on 16- you already are late then. You start making calls noon tomorrow 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hebert19 Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 We still need a release or 2, as well as some restructures before I believe we have any big names on our radar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dopey Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) So, if we can negotiate legally from March 14-16,but the beginning of the league year is the 16th, what's the argument about? Semantics? A quote I found while looking up the definition for semantics: "such quibbling over semantics may seem petty stuff" Man, I hope I used the word correctly. HAPPY SUNDAY!!

TheBeaneBandit Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Donkey Kong? More like a mofo lol!!! It's like Christmas Eve man. We need an alpha on the Dline or Oline. Score one of those and a couple above average starter types and I will feel great going into the draft. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

March 14-16: Legal negotiation window ahead of free agency. first two lines of post. There is lots of aggressive stupidity in this thread. Rough Saturday night? Teams are allowed to negotiate with the agents of upcoming unrestricted free agents during the "Two Day Negotiating Period," a window prior to the start of free agency (in 2022: from noon ET on March 14 until 4 p.m. ET on March 16). Self-represented players ("Unrepresented Player") can now speak with members of team front offices (but not coaching staffs) during this period, which was previously prohibited.
