For such an odd dude Rodgers sure seems to have a lot of friends he looks out for.

Penny will be great when healthy. Gainwell will probably be the back to own in FF.
I think it's going to look just like last year only Penny in the Sanders role.

Well sure seems like Bijan isn’t happening. Which was always a huuuuge long shot given they way they value the position.

I think they’ll draft a RB. Maybe not early but some one for their mix.

If that is true then I really, REALLY like the Richardson first QB drafted bet I have
Max Power

Well they can move around and add more picks but outside of round one and round 7 all they have in the entire draft is picks 62 and 94.
McGary re-signed with Atlanta 3/34.5
What a great move by the Falcons there. Jawaan Taylor and Mike McGlinchey both got way more, despite being worse players.
If Ridder takes a step forward, Falcons could absolutely be the best team in the NFC South after adding Onyemata and Bates.

Yeah, if I draft Young or Stroud with the 1.01, I'd have expectations of either getting rolled out as the week 1 starter, and (assuming healthy) have Matt Corral at QB #2; and, I can see Carolina designing packages for him to start getting his feet wet as soon as week 1, too.

Ew for everyone involved.
yeah must mean Jamaal probably leaves and I dunno about Swift/terms of the deal yet
OP updated again
3/$18 $11g yeah buddy that means at least JW is gone maybe a Swift trade is coming or maybe they just rock 2 really good RBs

Talent maybe…but think JW really fit with the Lions and helping change that culture with the coach.
Never happen…but if always welcome that guy back in GB. Love Jamaal…

He isn’t a free agent. He is still under contract with Green Bay. But has been messing with people on twitter.

Wow. You really think they draft 2RBs in the 1st? I can’t see it. Sorry buddy. I think you may be off on this one.

Vikings signed CB Byron Murphy to a two-year, $22 million contract.
Finally a halfway exciting signing by the Vikings.

Bengals are losing some key players.

I’ve thought it was a given Hurst was gone. Mayer or Kincaid?
Mayfield not Jerome.
Fool's gold move by Carolina. Hurst is JAG, and is easily replaced by well, anybody really. He got a lot of hype but was less effective than CJ Uzomah the season before.
Might be an overreaction, but between losing multiple quality defensive starters, both the OC and DC, and likely having to pay big money for Hurts, I kinda wonder if Philly may have missed their window a little bit. Surprised Slay was a straight release.Darius Slay leaving Phi
Not sure the Bengals will want to spend the money, but I'd love to see a guy like Mike Gesicki in that offense. But I agree, its a top notch TE draft, so they may prefer that route.
If they don't draft a QB, I'd bet he's the week 1 starter. Trask wasn't ever able to move ahead of Gabbert.

Restructuring Slay would have been the biggest benefit to Philly cap-wise but Slay was below average the second half of the season. Here is a stat from the Eagles board:
I'm not sure how much of that was age catching up with Slay or Jonathan Gannon's defensive scheme. I guess we'll see this year. I for one am glad Gannon is gone.
I'll reserve my judgment on this offseason for Philly until I see what happens with CJGJ but if the Eagles bring him back, they'll be more than fine on the back end. I'm also confident they'll bring a guy or two in on a one-year prove it deals like they did Kyzir White and James Bradberry last year.
Williams is a nice signing for them. The over/under on Kamara's suspension is 6 games, so Williams might still put up RB2-ish numbers.
Saints might be the favorites if Thomas can stay healthy, and they can overcome being coached by Dennis Allen.

Very surprised the Lions couldn’t or wouldn’t at least match that.
I thought it as good business they clearly prioritized Monty. Jamaal's wear and tear is on the positive side vs someone who has been more of a feature back in their career but he's at the age of decline we typically see with RB's and getting those 2 years younger with Monty for a little more money makes sense to me. And in 2 years when Monty is Jamaal's current age he is probably kicked to the curb, that's the way his contract was structured.
On the flip side not a fan of the Jamaal signing for the Saints and having their two Rb's at age 28. Someone with some youth and juice I thought would have made a better pairing with Kamara....still might happen with the draft but seems like a day 3 pick at best. Jamaal's contract was modest but combined with Kamara's that's a lot of money tied up at RB relatively speaking.
Boston
Footballguy
Just my guess but with Swift's durability being questionable Detroit wanted a more diverse back to go along with him...if they are both healthy that is a nice 1-2 punch but if Swift (or Montgomery_ goes down) than Montgomery just gets a bigger piece of the pie.

If I had to look at a list of free agents, and I had to pick out three that would never again accomplish what they had JUST accomplished, I would start with this guy.
I also don't really think the Saints are in a position to be handing out contracts like this to rotational running backs either, but Loomis gonna Loomis.

True, his lightning in a bottle season is probably a big reason why the Lions moved on. But as BL has said, what he brings to the team is way beyond what he does at the goal line. Everything has a price of course.
