How are the Raiders able to sign him before FA even starts again?

Only good to come out of this is maybe there’s a better chance Queen or Murray slip to pick 33. Heard the Packers are interested in Littleton so maybe two LB needy teams won’t go linebacker in round one.

Shrugs. Yall fell for those free agent talking points.

Packers just signed Kirksey this morning, so hopefully even better chance for Littleton to come to Cincinnati.

We’re in the “legal” tampering period. Deals reached now are unofficial until free agency officially begins which I think is 4pm Wednesday.

Well, I was betting on Kwiatkoski. I guess Schobert will be a bengal.
RE: LB Nick Kwiatkoski - Socal Bengals fan - 03-16-2020
The only guy I wanted to sign.

3 yrs is all that's out there ATM.
Austin Hooper is a Brown now.
4 Yrs $42 mil w/$23 guaranteed
We will probably go after Ogletree and/or Whitehead, both got released and fit our motto

The legal tampering period started at 12 EST today.

Which just means that teams can begin to talk to agents and players. A deal in place ready to be signed just means there was alot of illegal tampering going on...
RE: LB Nick Kwiatkoski - Whodey614 - 03-16-2020
So he basically received Preston Brown's deal but with more guaranteed money.
Don't see why in any way we couldn't have gotten him.

Or they just came on strong with the first offer. Maybe 3yr/$21m (plus incentives) was more than he and his agent were expecting, so they were in a rush to jump on it.
Guy's been a backup who only got a small sample size of starting and now he's the 13th highest paid ILB in the league with the chance for incentives to make more. Might have been enough for an immediate yes. $13.5m guaranteed is generational wealth money.
(But probably also illegal tampering.)

How the hell is $16.5 million the same as $21 million?
