- John Abraham is off to Atlanta , with the help of the Denver Broncos. I'll let ESPN explain:

"Atlanta sent its first-round choice, the 15th pick overall in this year's draft, to Denver for the Broncos' first-round choice, No. 29 overall. The Falcons also picked up a pair of middle-round selections, one each in the 2006 and 2007 drafts.

The Falcons then shipped the 29th pick acquired from Denver to the Jets in exchange for Abraham."

- In a semi-surprising move, former Patriots kicker Adam Vinatieri signed with the Indianapolis Colts today. Terms of the deal are not available yet, but it looks like he'll get a $3.5 million signing bonus, and then it averages $2.5 million a year over the first 3 years of the deal. I guess when you're desparate you're desparate.

- Eric Moulds has permission to seek a trade, after he refused to take a pay cut. Moulds' "personal trainer" said that Moulds does not want to play for the Bills and he won't play for the Bills. Not good for a team whose offense wasn't very good last year. Although that probably had more to do with JP Losman and Kelly Holcomb more than anything else.

- The Minnesota Vikings actually have a fullback! They signed Tony Richardson to a 2-year deal on Tuesday. Under Tice, the Vikings never really had a true FB, but they used Jermaine Wiggins and Jim Kleinsasser as more of an H-Back/TE. Richardson comes from Kansas City, which has been a very good rushing team, so this looks like a nice deal. Richardson is a solid lead blocker and receiver out of the backfield.
