PFF’s second best rated CB from 2019 for a 5th rounder. Very nice.

That's a steal . But he needs to be extended right ? But if he leaves they make get comp pick? Either way that's one of the best movies of the off-season

WOW!!!!

Kuechly, now this guy!

I wouldn't be surprised if he returns in one year. I read a former player who had same condition said he didn't feel the same until like week 13 of season 2 since the condition . I think there is a small chance he returns

Absolutely. Our secondary was kind of a weakness a year ago. Now, it's looking quite good. They needed someone opposite Shaquill Griffin. Dunbar is a massive upgrade. They also acquired Quandre Diggs mid season for a 5th as well. Someone who could fill the shoes of Earl Thomas. He played well.

Pete a DB/Defensive coach, just simply knows what he needs and what to look for. Belichek another. But youd be surprised, at how many coaches dont know how to patch holes and fill necessities on their team. But will just sit there and watch the ship sink. Or have no idea on how minor fixes can make big differences, but think a Big Name will fix everything. When sometimes a simple fix will do.

Bill O’Brien feels attacked!

Dude NFL cap and salary is so much more complicated than NBA. I have a hard time looking at the Seahawks and wondering how the hell they can afford to bring Clowney back and chase Griffen.

It's likely one or the other at this point. Creating cap space is not an issue. Cuts, and restructuring contracts to free up space is pretty common around the league these days. Ed Dickson is one guy who will be released shortly due to the current amount of TE's on the roster. That move alone will free up an extra $3 million. Tedric Thompson is another backup who's on his way out soon. Just a reminder that contracts in the NFL aren't guaranteed. Another factor I've come to realize is that several of their recent signings so far have little to no guaranteed money attached.

I'm still waiting to see what the 49ers are going to do with Goodwin and Coleman. Guess McKinnon is far from a sure thing as we've learned the last 2 years just weird to put that tender on Bredia and keep Coleman with Mostert already here.

Deal falls through: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/28988558/eli-apple-remains-free-agent-deal-raiders-falls-through

Who should the Raiders get instead? Any above average CB left in FA?

A new team is where I would start.

Browns need to cut Vernon and his 15 million price tag. They have the most cap space in the nfl and can easily afford Clowney.

I’m not worried about paying Myles and Baker. They will probably cut Sheldon Richardson and his 9 million price next year.

Nick Foles restructured his contract. This type of move had to happen. Mitch Trubisky is not progressing, either he wins the job versus Nick Foles or not. If he does, Foles is a valuable backup. I also see the Bears drafting a quarterback in the late rounds of this year's draft as well.

Texans writing blank checks

Texans signed LT Laremy Tunsil to a three-year, $66 million extension.

The deal includes $57.85 million guaranteed and $40 million due at signing. It's a massive deal for the Pro Bowl left tackle, as previously Eagles RT Lane Johnson was the highest-paid tackle at $18 million per year. The Texans essentially were forced to meet Tunsil's demands after coach Bill O'Brien gave up so much to acquire him. Of course, Tunsil is certainly a player worth building around. The 25-year-old LT is arguably the best linemen that's protected Deshaun Watson to this point, as he earned PFF's No. 17 highest grade among 88 qualified tackles in 2019.
