Update: ESPN reports that Tully Banta-Cain has signed a 3 year, $13.5 million deal.

Fantasy Impact: Banta-Cain was the Pats' sack leader last year and is the main fantasy provider for the stat on the team right now.

Update: ESPN reports that NT Vince Wilfork has struck a 5 year, $40 million deal with $25 guaranteed with the Patriots after they franchise tagged him, presumably to work out this deal.

Fantasy Impact: Wilfork does not have much fantasy relevance other than the fact that he helps to keep the Patriots' defense respectable.

Update: ESPN reports that the Bears have signed free agent TE Brandon Manumaleuna to a 5 year deal. The details of the contract are not known.

Fantasy Impact: Even though Manumaleuna is going to a Mike Martz offense, he is expected to be a blocking TE and not have much fantasy value next year.

Update: The Bears have signed free agent RB Chester Taylor to a 4 year, $12.5 million deal with $7 million guaranteed.

Fantasy Impact: Taylor will likely have a much bigger role in Chicago than he did in Minnesota, especially considering the disappointing sophomore campaign of RB Matt Forte. Expect him to go earlier this year in drafts.

Update: The Bears signed free agent DE Julius Peppers to a 6 year, $91.5 million deal with $42 million guaranteed.

Fantasy Impact: This should make the Bears D better for fantasy because it gives them a real pass rusher who can get some sacks.

Update: According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Arizona Cardinals traded for FS Kerry Rhodes and a seventh-round pick in the 2011 draft to the New York Jets for a 2010 fourth-round pick.

Fantasy Impact: Just a day after the Cardinals lose Antrel Rolle to free-agency they pick up a good safety in Kerry Rhodes. Rhodes is a physical defender with 63 tackles, three interceptions and 13 pass deflections last season.

Update: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports CB Dunta Robinson signed a six-year contract with $22.5 million in guarantees on Saturday. Robinson was widely-known as the best cornerback in free agency this season, and spent last year with the Houston Texans.

Fantasy Impact: This is a tremendous upgrade for the Atlanta Falcons secondary and was an issue they needed to address if they were going to compete with the New Orleans Saints for the division title this upcoming season.

Update: WR Nate Burleson has agreed to a five-year, $25 million contract with the Detroit Lions according to ESPN’s John Clayton. Burleson was with the Seattle Seahawks last season.

Fantasy Impact: Burleson holds good sleeper fantasy value after making 63 receptions for 812 yards and three touchdowns last year, but with Scott Linehan as offensive-coordinator and alongside Calvin Johnson, Burleson could surprise many and have a breakout year.

Update: ESPN's Adam Schefter reports New England Patriots nose tackle Vince Wilfork has signed an extension with the Patriots worth $40 million over five years. Also, the deal includes an $18 million signing bonus and $25 million guaranteed. This contract will make Wilfork the highest-paid nose tackle in NFL history. Wilfork confirmed the extension, "We are pleased to say we will be here for many more years to come."

Fantasy Impact: Vince Wilfork is a good run stopping nose tackle for the Patriots and will help turn the Patriots defense around, which had a tough year last year due to inexperience and lack on consistency.

Update: According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Oakland Raiders released RB Justin Fargas on Saturday. Fargas ran for 491 yards last year, and had four starts at running back for the Raiders.

Fantasy Impact: It's hard to imagine Fargas finding a job with Brian Westbrook and LaDainian Tomlinson all 30+ year old running backs looking for jobs this offseason. Fargas being released gives the starting job to Michael Bush and Darren McFadden.
