Looks like the league may be redefining the cost of RBs by making them one year rentals. The more high quality RBs end up on that list, the faster the tag cost will fall as well.

It'll take him a while since he will have been away from the game for over 700 days and may be rusty, but the Jaguars have put together a fearful WR/TE group.

Dude got hosed by the NFL. Put some money on games while he wasn't even on the team. He was away from the team for "mental health" reasons and there was no way he could influence the outcome of the game. Meanwhile, the NFL partners w/sites that engage in gambling.

Btw: The NFL is such a caring organization. Let's hammer a guy while he is dealing w/a mental health issue to show the public we really care about the integrity of the game.

Easy buddy, I didn't make any comment as to the validity of his suspension. I was just pointing out the Jaguars now have a WR/TE group that will instill fear into opponents.

What? I wasn't criticizing you. My comments were aimed at the NFL. I thought you were responding to me because he's finally been freed.

Courtland Sutton is a very good receiver in my opinion. Wonder what he would cost in a trade?

Sutton has 3-years left on his deal between 13.5M and 14.5M each year.

that's two players viewed as top talent with injuries getting non-exclusive tags.

Guessing Hargrave is a Browns' target.

Those are three excellent players. Hargrave was ranked as the 3rd highest ranked FA, trailing only Lamar and Geno Smith. I thought Philly would franchise him.

Gardner-Johnson is the #2 ranked safety and I think he is actually better than Bates.

Bradberry is an excellent corner.

It would be quite the coup if the Browns can sign Hargrave. I imagine that there will be a lot of suitors for him.

I wonder why they aren't re-signing some of their better players?


Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

Because they're wanting to extend Jalen Hurts (the most expensive position) and maybe keep Fletcher Cox and Brandon Graham....their other good players that are FA, perhaps better players.

As I just wrote in the Salary Cap thread ... the implication by many since we signed DW was that the salary cap is a non-factor - that Steve was constantly talking about the impact of the salary cap but he was stupid because the Cap would be manipulated and Berry is smarter than the average NFL Cap manager ... are you suggesting Philly just aren't as smart as the Browns/Berry --- or are you saying the Salary Cap is real and has obvious consequences.

Literally no one is implying the cap is a non-factor.

Who called Steve stupid and who said Berry is smarter than the avg. NFL cap manager?

Come with a little less hyperbole next time.

Because the Eagles want the most bang for their buck, and none of those guys play QB.

So sacrifices do have to be made when you didicate a large portion of salary cap to the QB position. Who'da thunk it!?

Talking to yourself on a message board might indicate that help is needed.

Exactly. No one is arguing that. It's a fact. It's only guys like you who are trying to make it look like breaking news and trying to forecast salary cap hysteria.

Gee, if only we could go back to the days of not having a QB, having the most cap space in the league and going 1 and 31. rolleyes

You act as if there's no alternative but one extreme or the other. Several NFL teams have QB's as good or better than watson that didn't reach to the extreme the Browns did. In most of those cases they actually draft and develop a QB. But even in the case of Mahomes when he was re-signed it was structured in a way KC wasn't crippled by his contract. It's not an all or nothing proposition. Except in Cleveland.

Okay, so what should the Browns have done at the QB position after the 2021 season? What were their options? The draft? Like Malik Willis or whatever his name is? Stuck w/Baker, a player no other NFL teams values? Marcus Mariota? Carson Wentz? Tyrod Taylor? Andy Dalton?

It's a fact that multiple teams were after Watson. They were willing to give up a ton of assets for him. They were all going to pay him big money because ultimately, Lamar had leverage in that he could pick a team to play for as long as that team agreed to Houston's compensation demands. But again, a lot of you b**** and moan every single day, but you never offer any alternatives in regards to what the Browns should have done w/the qb position.

I think most of us understand why you don't and many of us understand that is why you are so butt hurt about the subject.

I've posted very little on the board in the last 3 weeks or so ... funny how I come back and express some opinions on how many posters repeatedly down played the Salary Cap ... and you instantly start the name calling.

That's right classy. Well done.
