Sam Bradford signs a one year deal with the cards worth roughly to 20 million dollars with an option for a second year. I have no idea what to make of this. A healthy Bradford can sling but he has the knees of a 70 year old so we shall see. We better still draft a QB. Kirk Cousins: the news of the day saw captain Kirk ink an impressive 3 year 86 million fully guarenteed contract. This is the perfect scenario for Kirk to succeed. Incredible defence and excellent receivers paired with a great oline. The Vikings are definitely all in on contention. Case Keenum: for an undisclosed amount. The word is out that it is a very affordable chunk of change. If Case is really the guy we saw last year then Denver just got Kirk Cousins light on a way cheaper contract. If they fix up that oline, the Broncos could be an excellent bounce back candidate. Teddy Bridgewater: as expected ol Teddy B picked a place where he could start. He signed a short, relatively inexpensive deal to prove he can stil...

Drew Brees signs with the Saints: No surprise hear as the almost 40 year old qb will finish up his career on a very competitive team. The deal is 2 years 50 million with 27 million guarenteed. He was never leaving. Sammy Watkins: Watkins signs a 3 year 42 million dollar deal to head to the Chiefs. If healthy, Watkins will provide QB Pat Mahomes with another weapon to complement Hill and Kelce. This does seem a little expensive for a guy who couldn't succeed in the most receiver friendly offence in the league. He is still young and the talent remains however. High risk-high reward move. Allen Robinson: signed a nearly identical deal with Watkins at 3 years and 42 million, with 27 guaranteed. This is an interesting deal as the guy is coming off an ACL injury. However, when he is healthy he is a bonafide number one receiver. Mitch Trubisky is probably ecstatic that he has an NFL level receiver. Andrew Norwell: signs with the Jags on a 5 year 66.5 million deal with 30 million gua...

The Cleveland Browns mad some splashy moves over the weekend. They acquired an excellent bridge QB (Tyrod Taylor) for a 3rd round pick and a true number one receiver (Jarvis Landry for a fourth and seventh). They also dealt their mediocre starting qb Deshone Kizer for mediocre cornerback Damarious Randall. My initial thoughts are wow, cleveland is actually making the right moves. The team was and still is stocked with draft picks. They were able to part with some mid round picks and acquire an above average qb and a legit star at wide receiver. Combine these guys with up and coming second year men: myles garrett and david njoku and you have an nice foundation. Add in the fact that you have the first and the fourth pick in the draft and things are looking good for the Browns future. This is what happens when you bring in a GM with an excellent reputation in Joey Dorsey. Dorsey was the main catalyst in turning the Kansas City Chiefs around. He is off to an excellent start with the Browns...

The Rams are going for it all. They could not have picked a better time to do so. The Shehawks are dismantling their once dominate defence and the niners are still a year or two away. Combine this with the uncertainty that the Cardinals face with no current qb and the time is now. Their latest addition is the enigmatic, yet talented corner Aqib Talib. Talib became expendable in Denver. This was not due to his play (he is still dominate) but a combination of a few things. He is set to make 11 million this year as a 31 year old cornerback. The Broncos are already spending a nice chunk of change of their other star corner, Chris Harris. They also have former first rounder Bradley Robey waiting in the wings. A jettisoning of Talib made sense for them. The Rams are in win now mode and they were set to lose Trumaine Johnson. Pairing Talib with Peters potentially gives them the best cornerback duo in the league. However, two personalities this large will take some finessing from Sean Mcvaay...

Makes sense for both teams. Robert Quinn has been limited by injuries and was much too costly for the Rams. This is especially true in a year where many key Rams defenders were set to become free agents. This has to mean the team is gearing up for a mega extension for Aaron Donald. It also clears them up to tag either Watkins or Joyner and then potentially workout a multi-year contract with whoever does not receive said tag. The Dolphins did not give up much in terms of compensation (a forth round pick) for a guy who can still play when healthy. Their 4-3 scheme is also a better fit for Quinn then the Rams 3-4. This also means that Dolphins will be doing some shuffling along the defensive line. Ndamkung Suh is scheduled to account for 26 million against the cap. While Andre Branch and Cameron Wake combine for 18 million in blocked cash. Look for the team to dump one or two of these players in an effort to clean up their hellish cap situation. Branch is an almost guarantee while Suh cou...
