    Jimmy Garoppolo has signed a 5 year deal with the 49ers.

    Its big money but good move for both parties - Jimmy G gets his money and the 49ers with a ton of cap space lock up their quarterback in a qb market that is only going to get more crazy.

    I want to like this more than once 😁😁😁

    Great signing and yeah, the 49ers have the cap space so they might as well use it. The other teams looking for free agent QBs won't be so happy - the market price just went up.

    Epic speech by Jason Kelce. Love the shot he takes at Michael Lombardi.

    There could be a wrestling career for him post football.

    49ers keeping on winning. Win the coin toss against Oakland and will now pick 9th in the draft (Oakland pick 10th).

    It's tempting but they'll take Sam Darnold with the 1st pick and that Notre Dame OL with the 4th pick. I think the Giants will take Barkley with the 2nd pick however and sign QB Case Keenum in free agency.

    @sneakdefreak Signing Keenum would suggest Giants will move on from Eli Manning. I'm not so sure they will.

    I think they'll move him to Denver if the Broncos lose the Kirk Cousins bidding war.

    There are talks that Sam Darnold might not be the QB they are after. They could pick up a QB, Allen or Darnold with the 4th pick.

    And that's the end of the Legion of Boom. Michael Bennett traded to Philly, Richard Sherman to be released.

    With LA Rams the new powerhouse in the NFC West, and the 49ers about to join them, it makes sense for Seattle to raise the white flag now and join Arizona in rebuilding their teams for 3-4 years down the road. You have to think Pete Carroll will retire this offseason or next.

    Yeah but the US media will always talk about how they should have won more (And they would have if they had handed it off to Lynch).

    Browns are getting busy, picking up Landry for 2 picks (unclear which) and Tyrod Taylor for a third. Also said to be picking up Demarious Randall CB for the Packers for unknown compensation.

    Taylor doesn't stop them from drafting a qb but does mean they can be more confident with someone who isn't ready to be a day one starter (Josh Allen maybe?). Landry is interesting and I'll be very curious to see what the picks are. I think his statline is better than his actual value, so browns are probably over paying for a slot receiver that will want to be force fed receptions.

    The Cleveland Browns are trading up a storm right now! Acquire WR Landry from Miami for two picks (yet unknown) and are now trading a third-round pick to Buffalo for QB Tyrod Taylor. They have also made another trade for Green Bay CB Damarious Randall.

    Taylor would only be a one-year stop gap if they do draft a Darnold or Allen but a 3rd rounder is pretty high tbh. I fear the Browns may be on the verge of fucking it all up again.

    The young Eagles GM, Howie Roseman, has been really impressive these last two years. He's made several great trades and a lot of them seem one sided in favour of the Eagles.

    The Rams have made a couple of moves of their own. They've traded for two of the better corners in the league, Marcus Peters and Aqib Talib. Both come with some character concerns, but when you're so close to contending for a Super Bowl, it's probably worth the risk.

    I'm wondering if there is a meme like the empire did nothing wrong. I'm still really comfortable with that playcall -- and rewatching some old games from that time recently (on the rower), there was more than one moment in (I think) the championship game where Lynch gets stuffed behind the line.

    The pass call was OK, the execution by DangeRuss was not great. Still a good Superb Owl to watch.
