I thought the Free agency period was not open yet, so how can Richard Sherman meet with the 49ers and sign a deal already? Or at least reach a deal?

I believe because he was cut, he can negotiate with anyone, anytime.

Agree, but technically Buffalo has the picks to move up...if the Colts were willing to move down that far.

He was cut rather than his contract expiring so he immediately became a FA.

Here is what Walter Football has to say about Landry so take it for what it is worth.

Harold Landry, DE/OLB, Boston College
Height: 6-3. Weight: 250.
Projected 40 Time: 4.67.
Projected Round (2018): 2-3.
2/24/18: Multiple teams sources told me that Landry belongs on the second day of the 2018 NFL Draft. They labeled his senior year tape as not impressive. Landry had a big drop in his pass-rush production year over year and put together some ugly games in run defense. Sources say that Landry is smaller than his listed numbers of 6-foot-3, 250 pounds, too. They believe he is an inch or two shorter and weighs in the 240s, which makes him more of a linebacker's body type for the NFL. Teams that run a 4-3 defense have concerns about Landry holding up on the edge because he is very undersized to be a base end. More than one NFL source sees Landry as a second-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.

In 2017, Landry had 38 tackles with 8.5 tackles for a loss, five sacks and two passes broken up. The senior missed a few games with an ankle injury late in the year.

Landry was a liability versus the run against the Fighting Irish, recording only one tackle while Notre Dame ran for seven touchdowns and had two players exceed 200 yards rushing. On the vast majority of his plays, Landry went against a freshman right tackle, yet was ineffective. Landry also lost his few reps against Mike McGlinchey, plus got rag dolled by Quenton Nelson. It was an ugly performance for Landry. He was slightly better against Clemson.

Rather keep our pick and take Chubb if he is available. And if the Colts do trade back, don't trade back that damn far.

I agree. I don't like this trade back with Buffalo bullshit at all.

No thanks, they need to tell Buffalo to turn those picks into something higher than that, then talk trade.

I will really question Ballard's competency of he would trade that far back.
