Big win for Greg Hardy and the Cowboys today. I was a little surprised at how far the number dropped; I thought they might cut it to six games at most.

Chiefs signed Justin Houston!
6 year 101 million dollars making him the 2nd highest paid defensive player in the NFL.

52.5 mil guaranteed...although with NFL contracts the devil is in the details and we won't know for a while how much is partially guaranteed and/or fully guaranteed.
Looks like Dez and the Cowboys are going to get a deal done today:
Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter 12m12 minutes ago Dez Bryant now on his way to Cowboys' facility -- assuming the two sides can put finishing touches on deal.

very similar deal to Dez. That doesn't do anything to alleviate the collusion accusations. I wonder how much of an effect the union's threat had?
I read yesterday on PFT or ESPN that if the players got their long term deals before the deadline today then the union would probably back off their threat to investigate collusion. I guess we'll see.

Vikings announce restructuring of Adrian Peterson's contract.

I was wondering when this was going to happen. It makes sense. Curious to see all the details, but I'm guessing he traded some overall value for some guaranteed money. It's a good outcome.

that's right, because he didn't negotiate Peterson's previous contract, so he'd never had a chance to get his percentage of the big signing bonus.
But, it's not like he's in line for a huge payday. If there's no signing bonus, just guaranteed money, he'll still make exactly the same this year as he would have. And even less, provided Peterson plays out this contract, since the total value will be down.
