2024 NFL Off-season Thread

my fearless prediction is that the Vikings are gonna trade up to 5 and take JJ McCarthy

I'm actually pretty high on his stock. I think he's got what it takes to succeed at the NFL level.

Can the Lions somehow trade for Justin Jefferson?

CIN lands their DT

HOU's Sheldon Rankins

2/26

hopefully we still draft another DT on day 1 or day 2

c'mon McL

if there's a trade (narrator: there won't be a trade), it wouldn't be to a divisional rival

Ridley me this: How in the hell ???

Vikings would need at least two 1s for JJ, maybe more. And they still might not trade him. Their roster is in a really nice place for a rookie QB

If I was Ridley's agent, I'd be bragging about getting that contract also.

does being a Sandy Hook truther lock that VP spot up for ARod?

ok but what if they win, he is gonna be VP and QB for the jets at the same time?

They might use an executive order to trade him to the Commanders.

From there it shouldn't make much difference if he's at the training facility in the mornings and at the stadium on Sunday compared to spending his mornings watching FOX News and golfing on Sunday.

It would be the top line of my resume' and PR release and everything else with my name on it!

Rodgers can't get more disturbed than this.

Any thought this guy had of having a public broadcasting career just went out the window.

counterpoint re Ridley. And just for argument's sake.

is stats for the season were 76 catches, 1016 yds 8TDs.

the most equivalent WRs above and below him for AAV on their contracts are....

DK Metcalf 66 catches, 1114 yds, 8TDs
Michael Pittman 109 catches 1152 yds 4TDs
Terry McLaurin - 79 catches 1002 yds, 4 TDs

and we all expect Tee Higgins to go for far more $$, but over a similar length career in terms of games, Ridley averages more catches, more yards and more TDs than Tee

they're different ages of course

Is the NFL going to do a full investigation into Barkley/Eagles for tampering like checking phone records?

Would be kinda stupid but we know how much the NFL cares about their tampering rules..

Hopefully they were using burners.

crazy a comment by Penn St.'s coach kicked this illegal tampering investigation off

it could end up being a blessing in disguise for PHI

Tyler Boyd to PIT picking up steam

KC and NYJ also in the mix

Wow Bengals going to lose Higgins and Boyd?

Tee likely to be in CIN's starting line-up in Week 1 (unless another team blows them away w a trade offer ... a first and a second would probably get it done ... narrator: a good enough trade wasn't offered)

Boyd was always gone. about to enter his age 30 season. CIN doesn't do 30 yr old+ offensive specialists

we drafted two WRs last year and both look promising enough. team also likely to draft a WR on day 2

VP is a government job. You show up a couple hours a week and collect a pay check.

How? Is the player ever forced out here? Suzzer probably knows the details, but the Maclin deal stood. The league just took picks and a fine.

I'm actually not sure if Pedo U or the Eagles are more popular in the Philly area, but Franklin should probably have someone else start his car for a while.

They're not going to nix the deal. Worst case scenario would be a fine for Roseman and the team plus a draft pick(s). Half the issue is the alleged "sales pitch" indicating that the Eagles and Barkley's agents didn't agree on a deal before that call happened (allegedly).

Chiefs lost a 3rd and 6th round pick. Monetary fines were reduced on appeal.

makes the Saquon deal even worse if they end up losing a draft pick or picks

my blessing in a disguise comment assumed they could reverse the deal out. appears that isn't an option

Ya if the eagles have to forfeit a pick(s) on top of the contract this went from a mediocre signing to a disaster
