    What the title says. Post all of the rumors that my not have made the headlines here and discuss. I've got a few.

    RUMORS

    Chad Johnson and Carson Palmer have talked with head coach Marvin Lewis about having players like Chris Henry on the team. Marvin Lewis had to keep his cool and reassured he will keep it under control.

    Deion Branch is holding out because he wants a new contract like the one Reggie Wayne got from the Colts. Reggie Wayne signed a $40 million contract.

    Eddie Kennison will attend camp but will leave at any desired time unless he gets a raise in a new contract, traded, or released.

    Reggie Bush is staying put and not making any comments about his holdout.

    He is crazy. He isnt that good, or that valuable to the patriots.worth maybe 20 million. Anywhere else he puts up similar #'s. Wayne goes anywhere else he goes from #2 to #1 and puts up HUGE #'s. The colts know that and paid him accordingly.

    Yeah, an iflated last year, means nothing, he got less gauranteed. Titans will renegotiate by then or will have realized he isnt any good. Probably the latter IMO

    Agreed... Even $20 million seems too much to me.

    MORE RUMORS

    Deion Branch is willing to return to camp as long as he gets a new deal at the end of the season and won't be franchise tagged.

    It is an open battle for the #1 RB in Tennessee between Travis Henry, Chris Brown, and rookie LenDale White.

    The 49ers have shown interest in Raiders WR Jerry Porter.

    The eagles are very interested in Ashley Lelie. Other teams are Jaguars, Packers, Chiefs and Chargers.

    I dont think the broncos would want to trade to a divison rival, so i think Eagles or Jags would be good places for Lelie

    A patriot grumbling about more money. This could finally mean the end of the road for the Pats. Rumour up here is Flutie maybe returning to Toronto because of there QB injuries
