Rams gave up a 4th this year and 2nd next year for Peters...

Why couldn't we have offered one of our 3rds this year instead?

NFL gm's are so weird regarding draft pick values

Yeah like Elway drafting Paxton Lynch in the first round or giving Bortles more money

Demos wanting to come back to the H, we need to get younger at Safety though.

I wonder if the Pats would trade gronk for watt?

Teddy B going to test the free agent market.
I'm really interested in where he ends up I still want to see more from him to determine what he really is and is going to be

 

[#1 pick]

Vikes not expected to franchise tag Case Keenum. Everything's lining up for Cousins to come to Minnesota

No one wants to be honest but why would he sign with these teams with no weapons like NY and Cleveland when he could go to Minny which title ready

 

[Bryan Danielson]

Man price was so low anybody could have gotten him. We shoulda put a bid in

Maybe they did but no one bit on it.

Some times GMs are just like “fukk this shyt” and try to play hardball to see who blinks

Money. If the Jets are offering a fully guaranteed contract or close to it, Kirk might take it.

Qbs know the money is best when you get continue it for along time. QB gets paid for awhile. This ain't DB like Nnamdi and Revis

A little more than $17 mil for that franchise tag

He's a great player so i guess i understand, but still thats insane for a DE

Hopefully they can work out a deal though

Was kinda shocked to learn he's already almost 30 (turns 29 in a month). I would guessed he was 25 or 26

They tagged him because it’s a weak draft for edge players

 

[yseJ]

if 15 yard rule passes we finna see a ton of PIs on hail mary's and in short clock situations

deep passing in general will be devalued even more because whats the point of risking a low % throw if db can just do a pi and itd be a 15 yard max throw ? I dont mind it but people who complain about qbs dinking and dunking will be furious


edit: wrong thread

fukk!!

Great, another first round pick on a DE who sets the edge and shyt for the Jets coming right up

Some free agency tidbits from insider Tony Pauline...

Free Agency Chatter

• As I initially reported during the Senior Bowl, expect extensive talks between the New York Jets and Weston Richburg during the free agency period. The New York Giants are unlikely to keep their former starting center, and Richburg to the Jets is something both sides want to happen. The Jets need help at guard and an upgrade at center; Richburg can play both spots.

• We also reported from the Senior Bowl that the Giants are expected to make a concerted effort to sign guard Andrew Norwell. If they can’t sign the pricey free agent, I’m told Ryan Jensen will be a less-expensive contingency plan.

• D.J. Fluker is another offensive lineman who is unlikely to stay with the Giants. Potential destinations for Fluker include the Miami Dolphins, Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks.

• I’m told Trumaine Johnson is the No. 1 target for the Oakland Raiders in free agency and that the team will make a pointed effort to sign the cornerback. Johnson is expected to have numerous suitors once free agency opens, and Oakland views Johnson as a great pairing with Gareon Conley.

Keep This in the Back of Your Mind

• There’s a lot of talk surrounding the Dolphins trading receiver Jarvis Landry, who was recently franchised. Several in the league tell me they believe a Landry trade won’t happen until draft day, as the receiver could be used as ammunition to move up and secure one of the top three quarterbacks should any of trio start to slip. Dolphins general manager Mike Tannenbaum made a similar move with the New York Jets when he traded up for Mark Sanchez in the 2009 draft. Though Sanchez did not have a stellar career in New York, he did lead the team to consecutive appearances in the AFC title game. People also point to the fact that Tannenbaum is close to Super Bowl-winning GM Howie Roseman of the Eagles and would like nothing more than to mimic Roseman’s success in making a bold move for a young quarterback and striking gold. Speculation is Josh Rosen is the signal caller of choice.

• I’m told there’s a good chance the Seattle Seahawks dangle either Richard Sherman or Earl Thomas in trade talks this week. Thomas is more marketable, as he’s in the final year of his contract and is due $10.4 million in 2018 -- $2.8 million less than Sherman, who watched his season end with a torn Achilles last November and will turn 30 in March.
