Live Blog Updates
7:23pm ET
Jaguars TE Marcedes Lewis has re-signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars...but not after a push by the Rams to sign him to replace ousted receiving TE Jared Cook.
6:00pm ET
The Rams are bringing back Brian Quick on a one-year prove it deal. Can he stay healthy and make an impact?
5:00pm ET
The Giants are on a roll. They just signed Olivier Vernon to a MONSTROUS contract.
4:50pm ET
More Rams staying put. This time, it's Tim Barnes. He's been re-signed on a two-year deal.
4:33pm ET
The Rams have re-signed safety Cody Davis to a two-year deal.
4:30pm ET
It looks as though three Rams RFAs were not tendered: LB Daren Bates, OL Brian Folkerts and RB Chase Reynolds
4:25pm ET
Another big name off the board in LB Danny Trevathan who's going from the Denver Broncos to the Chicago Bears.
4:00pm ET
Biggest news of the day: The Rams have re-signed both William Hayes and Mark Barron to long term deals! Hayes ended up with a three year contract while it appears Barron is wrapped up for five years.
3:30pm ET
It looks as though the Rams are trying to make sure Case Keenum isn't going anywhere without some significant compensation for the team. They've tendered him at a first round level.
3:10pm ET
And as for RFAs, we've got our first news with RB Benny Cunningham receiving a low-grade tender from the Rams. What does that mean? It means he's set for a one-year deal and the Rams won't get any draft compensation if they don't match any competing offers from other teams.
3:05pm ET
It's hard to believe this one, but there may be some credibility behind it. Sounds like Rams QB Case Keenum would be the Broncos' Plan C after Brock Osweiler and Colin Kaepernick...
1:40pm ET
The Atlanta Falcons now sound like they're gonna lock up the Alex Mack signing. The need at center is a stark one if the Rams aren't comfortable (a) that they'll be able to re-sign Tim Barnes and (b) relying on him as the full-time starter again.
1:00pm ET
Rams S Rodney McLeod is headed to the Philadelphia Eagles. Priority A looks like a failure...
11:50pm ET
Sounds like the Falcons are in the lead for former Browns C Alex Mack. I know he's a popular target around TST. With Tim Barnes on an expiring contract, who's going to be the Week 1 starter at center for the 2016 Los Angeles Rams?
11:20am ET
Janoris got five years, $62m from the Giants? Clearly, he made the right decision to fire his old agent. Get dat money, Jackrabbit. #checmate
10:50am ET
Just getting the tracker going. We've got updates on Janoris Jenkins leaving, interest in Rodney McLeod and William Hayes' situation all on the site.
Gonna be a wild one today. Stay tuned.
