Picture John Harbaugh Is Not Happy with the Ravens' Offseason
He'll only get sadder when they draft Manti Te'o.
Poll Which big-name NFL free agent would you most like your favorite team to sign?
- Jake Long - no team can succeed without a good offensive line and, yeah, I'm bored talking about this already. I actually hope they sign someone who makes neat touchdowns and could be on my fantasy team.
- Mike Wallace - his amazing speed allows him to get separation from defensive backs and also the football he just dropped
- Steven Jackson - nothing reenergizes a player like not playing for the Rams
- Reggie Bush - his signing would sell a lot of jerseys and make my team money they could use to sign players better than Reggie Bush
- Brian Urlacher - everyone knows you can't win a Super Bowl anymore without a famous linebacker who is way past his prime
- James Harrison - I'll happily root for anyone whose biggest goal in life is murdering Roger Goodell
- Ed Reed - other than the fact that he's old enough to have white hair, has hinted at retirement in past years and just won a Super Bowl, he's probably totally dedicated to football
- Wes Welker - I think it would be pretty cool if my team signed him and then just let him rot on the bench, because f--k the Patriots, right?
- Rex Grossman - Look, there's only a 1-in-32 chance my team wins the Super Bowl. May as well have some laughs while losing.

News Johnny Manziel Signs 5-Year, $150 Million Deal with Dallas Cowboys Because He Can Do Whatever He Wants
Manziel is technically not even eligible for the NFL draft until next year, let alone unrestricted free agency, and this year's free agents are not allowed to be signed until next week, but NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said the deal is approved.
"It's Johnny Manziel. Who's going to say no to him? What a guy," said Goodell. "Plus, it wasn't really up to me to turn it down anyway. Johnny called me up and told me how it was going to be."
Despite signing with the Cowboys, Manziel retains his college eligibility under the deal for as long as he wants it.
"I figure I'll play some college ball on Saturday, have some fun in College Station on Saturday night, then fly to Dallas or wherever Sunday morning to play for the Cowboys," said Manziel. "I think I'm at the age where I'm ready for this. I can't still be partying on Sunday afternoons anymore."
Manziel said he is also willing to join his Cowboys teammates on Saturday night if there is a big game or "if they're playing in Miami or New Orleans or some place like that."
The deal also gives Manziel courtside seats to every NBA game, access to Hollywood premieres and awards shows, and unlimited use of Kate Upton – although Manziel insists "trust me, I already have that."

News Joe Flacco Asks for Entire Contract to be Given in Signing Bonus: "In case I, you know, start sucking again"
"Joe is concerned, and I would say understandably so, that he is going to return to being the quarterback he was for the past five years," said Joe Linta, Flacco's agent. "He feels like he stepped in something and that it for some reason stuck to his shoe for a whole month. And now if, or possibly when, he comes out and starts being an average quarterback again, they'll cut him long before he gets anything close to $120 million."
Friends and teammates of Flacco's say he has been stressed out over the contract negotiations, saying things like "I don't know how long I can keep this up," and "I feel like it all might have just been a big fluke," and "honestly, I was just throwing the ball up in the air as far as I could and people were catching it. My own team. Next thing I knew we had a Super Bowl trophy. I think I might be screwed now."
