Napoleon Harris to Kansas City

[DH]

Im not saying that I wanted Harris, Simmons or Banta-Cain, but I find it hilarious that all three are better than Dhani and McCoy and not one was brought in for a visit.

Hilarious in a cry-yourself-to-sleep way?

PETITGOUT DEAL WORTH MORE THAN ORIGINALLY REPORTED

Adam Schefter of the NFL Network reports that the contract signed by tackle Luke Petitgout with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is worth $15.5 million over three years, with a $3 million signing bonus.  Original reports were that the Bucs would pay $6 million over three years.

Per a league source, Petitgout will get a roster bonus in 2007 of $1 million and a base salary of $2 million.  In 2008, Petitgout is due to receive a roster bonus of $1.75 million and a base salary of $2.5 million.  In 2009, Petitgout is scheduled to receive a roster bonus of $1.75 million and a base salary of $3.5 million.

The source of the original confusion is unclear.  It's possible that someone made a mistake, and it's possible that someone (i.e., the team) was putting out bad info.

We'd previously heard that Petitgout was looking for at least $5 million per year, and that the team was offering the veteran minimum.  So the real numbers are far closer to Petitgout's goal.

Funny thing is, of all the lineman who made HUGE dollars, Petitgout, bad back and all, is probably better than all of them in the short term.
