Thomas Jones to Kansas City: Not a bad grab. He’ll back up Jamaal Charles, who was 12th in the league in rushing last year (but really went nuts the last four weeks). Tough loss for the Jets, even though cutting Jones made (some) financial sense. They cannot go into next season with only a 2nd

Vikes Looking For Replacement For Taylor

Running back LaDainian Tomlinson will make a free-agent visit Thursday to the Vikings, according to Sports Illustrated. Tomlinson could be a replacement for Chester Taylor, who signed a four-year, $12.5 million deal with Chicago on Friday. Tomlinson was released by San Diego, so he wouldn't count toward the restrictions the Vikings are facing in free agency as one of the final four teams in the playoffs. Tomlinson averaged 3.3 yards per carry last season, and there are concerns about his explosiveness after nine years and 2,880 carries in San Diego. But as a third-down back, the role the Vikings must fill with Taylor gone, he could be a good fit in Minnesota. He has 530 career catches, averaging 59 catches per season. Tomlinson has lost 12 fumbles in his career, so his ability to hang onto the ball could be attractive for the Vikings, who have watched Adrian Peterson (RB, RB) lose 13 fumbles in three seasons.

FF Today's Take: Minnesota could be an intriguing destination for the veteran Tomlinson. Playing on an offense with fellow former MVP winner Brett Favre ("if" he does return), the Vikings can offer L.T. one thing that many other suitors will be unable to match - a legitimate chance at winning a Super Bowl.

Olindo Mare, who was close to automatic last season for the Seattle Seahawks, has signed his franchise tag tender, according to Adam Caplan of Scout.com.

By putting his name to paper, he guarantees his contract for the season at $2.814 million, and thus obligates himself to show up for the portions of the offseason program that are mandatory. With a new coach, the Seahawks will be able to conduct two minicamps, only one of which is mandatory. Sometimes, players with the franchise tag will wait to sign in order to skip as much work as possible while angling for a longterm deal or otherwise displaying their frustration with their current situation.
