I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I don't see any team trading picks to pay Fuller 1 yr/20 mil.

However, it sounds like if Fuller is released the Broncos will make a huge push for him.

1 yr/10 mil...sounds like that is what Golladay will do and both will hope for an increased cap next year.

If I am either one instead of 1yr/10 mil with a bad QB give me 1 yr/7.5 with a good to great QB and next year's offers are that much better.

Golladay met with the Bears.


It's the NFL though. Immediacy of money takes precedent. There's just too much risk attached.

How bad is the Watson situation? Only saw headlines. Is this we will never know and likely undisclosed settlements, or he did some really messed up things and it is over for him?

Probably will never know but there is starting to be alot of smoke.

Not sure why these guys feel the need to pay for a happy ending

What is it up to now, 9 people? Either he is really bad or they are really bad to coordinate this type of thing. Best to wait and see but seems to me a large amount of money will exchange hands and it will go away.

It probably would've better if he paid for one at a place that does it. Just read some stories and its seems like he didn't even do that.

Not looking good for Watson, but I'll wait to see what happens.

At the same time, if you are the Texans and IF (big if) the Panthers offer of three firsts, including the #8 pick is out there how do you not just take it at this point?

BTW, my sister-in-law dated Watson the offseason after his rookie year. She said he was nothing but a class act with her. Doesn't mean he is innocent or guilty......just saying she dated him for months and never saw this side of him at all. They still talk from time to time.

I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical of the first report with Watson as the attorney making the claim has a bit of a reputation for being a hack and I could see some disgruntled Houston power brokers brankrolling a lawsuit against him to **** him over for wanting out.

But this is enough smoke for a five alarm fire.

LOL the Phins are already releasing Wilson.

The Miami Dolphins are planning to waive 2020 first-round offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson just days after acquiring him in a trade with the Tennessee Titans, sources told ESPN.

Wilson was hours late for his physical and team onboarding process, skipped multiple optional workouts that he agreed to attend on Thursday and Friday and declined support service help that he was offered, all in his first official week with the team, sources said.


Dude was a first round pick. How little do you have to care to bust out this early in your career?!

Good for him. Pack were never in the running at that price tag.

Golladay's potential is very high....I really like him.

But the guy can't stay on the field......I am shocked he got that contract an offseason where almost everyone is pinching pennies. It could work out though.

I suppose the Giants are thinking anyone can win that crappy division, and they've been underwhelming for some time. So, why not blow their wad on Golladay?
