He was benched at the end of the year. Low character.
Plenty of talent though.

Devin White got $7m from the Eagles? That might be the worst signing this offseason. White isn't good. PFF has consistently graded him as one of the worst LB's. I'm shocked he got that much money.


It’s not 7 million

It’s up to 7 million

Kurt Cousins, please. :rofl: :rofl:

From what they had previously? Yeah.

Atlanta has such a young team with some nice weapons. Wouldn't it have been better to draft a QB instead of taking Cousins for all that money?

Yeah, probably. I'm not a JJ McCarthy fan. But it would have made sense to try to trade up for one.

Compared to what they had Cousins is a huge upgrade. He may not have playoff success but during the regular season he can reach MVP level play. It’s the same reason there would be a line of teams anxious to sign or trade for Dak if he was available.

If we could only be that lucky. That damn no trade clause. Who's idea was the no trade clause to begin with, Dak or Jerry's?

Stephen was doing the negotiations for Dak’s contract. If you want to blame anyone blame him.

That no trade clause is a current killer. We could have gotten Dak off our books by now and got something in return. Now we let him play out his contract and let him walk. The Jones boys ruining and running the Cowboy's and the front office to the ground. How bout them cowboys !!

For some teams it's actually an improvement to win 12 games and lose in the playoffs.

And for some teams winning 12 games almost every year and losing in the playoffs gets old.

2 impact receivers for the Chargers gone. Interesting to see who fills the blank space

He will always be one of my favorites, especially as a Sac native.

Always rooted for Jags, hope he stays healthy for you guys! When he's healthy, he makes an impact!

I legitimately don't know what team would even trade for him at this point

It seems like everyone who needs a backup is all set, and everyone who needs a starter or a high potential young QB has the draft positioning to do so, plus this is supposed to be a pretty strong year for rookie QBs

Then he only has a year left on his deal before you gotta tag him or re-sign him

Also, god damn does the 2021 draft look like sh*t for QBs. Trevor's the only viable option among them, and he's still kind of disappointing compared to the hype.

Fields is an expensive backup at this point. As you pointed out.

I'd rather have Sam Howell over all those guys that we're listed. At least he played well at times as a starter on a terrible team. There's some upside with him. Pickett doesn't have the arm to be anything more than a backup. I've also never been a huge fan of Ridder.
