After a wild weekend, the opening day of the NFL's legal tampering period of free agency wasn't far behind. There weren't any shocking trades or truly massive contracts, but there were at least four contract reports that required me to double-check I wasn't being duped by a fake account on social media. Every number seems a little bit bigger than expected in a league in which the salary cap has risen by more than $54 million over the past two years. With so many teams fighting over a handful of top options, some of the fallback contracts and Plan B moves made by organizations that didn't land their preferred player were truly stunning.
