ESPN - Reports: Carter chooses Bucs over Raiders - NFL

Defensive end Kevin Carter has reportedly decided to re-sign with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers rather than sign with the Oakland Raiders.
The Tampa Tribune and St. Petersburg Times are reporting that Carter agreed to a one-year deal to return to Tampa Bay, spurning a two-year offer from Oakland. He reportedly will make less than what he was paid last year before the Bucs cut him last month in a salary cap move to avoid paying a roster bonus.
"It was big money he turned down, but he went with his heart rather than the pocket," Carter's agent, Harold Lewis, told the Tampa Tribune. "A lot of people would have taken the wallet. Taken more money and the guarantees to go to another city. Kevin has been playing for a long time, he's 34 years old, saved a lot of money and found a place he and his family would like to call home for the next 34 years."

Today he is looking for a job, with nothing in the works. He is an NFL hobo, searching for a place to call home.
It's so bad that Quinn Gray, the man who was third team behind Leftwich in Jacksonville, is visiting teams, while Leftwich just hopes for a shot.

ESPN - Tatupu agrees to six-year extension worth more than $40 million - NFL

Seattle Seahawks general manager Tim Ruskell took some criticism in 2005 for trading up in the second-round for USC middle linebacker Lofa Tatupu, who was considered slightly undersized and a little slow.
Three Pro Bowls and one trip to the Super Bowl later, Tatupu has emerged as the leader of the Seahawks' defense. The leadership was rewarded with a six-year contract extension for $42 million which includes more than $18 million in guarantees.

The Atlanta Falcons have agreed to terms with record-setting kicker Jason Elam, who is leaving Denver after 15 seasons with the Broncos.
A person familiar with the negotiations, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deal had not been officially announced, said the 37-year-old Elam would be joining the Falcons.
The NFL Network reported that Elam settled on a four-year, $9 million contract that includes $3.3 million in guaranteed money.

CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland Browns have agreed to terms with free agent linebacker Shantee Orr on a one-year contract.
Orr played for Houston and Jacksonville last season. The 6-foot-1, 246-pounder will give the Browns depth and fill a spot opened when outside linebacker Chaun Thompson signed a two-year contract last week with the Houston Texans.
The 26-year-old Orr began last season with the Texans and made two starts before being waived after six games. He was signed by the Jaguars in December and played in three games.
Orr entered the NFL as an undrafted rookie free agent out of Michigan in 2003. He had his best season in 2005, when he made 12 starts and recorded a career-high seven sacks.
