@KiwiMurph the cap hit in dead money is the biggest in history. Bigger than the old No1 and No2 combined.

Epic.

Any Bronco fans here?

Fuck your face

And it is free agency season

Some big moves
Kirk Cousins to the Falcons. Vikings signed Darnold

King Henry to the Ravens is interesting. Their running back plays QB

The Commanders just gave Marcus Mariota $6m for a year??

Jimmy G got released

Barkley to the Eagles

Some of the QB names linked to the Broncos are gross

love Henry. Almost got his jersey. His highlights reel is off the charts, an insanely good player, wasted in a shithouse team.

I'm not triggering you mate, but who is that? Haven't had my eye on it.

Wilson to the Steelers seems solid for both of them. Good luck - will see what they can get out of him

We were interested in Darnold, but thankfully his price went too high. Zach Wilson has been mentioned

Thankfully Jameis Winston has already gone to the Browns

The way the team is at the moment is completely fucked. Getting a proven failure in for a couple of years seems a waste of time. The rebuild is not only behind, but hamstrung by the Russell fucking Wilson deals. Burn the joint to the ground and start from the very bottom. With Mahomes and the Chiefs in our division (and the possibility of the Chargers making use of their gun QB) we're playing for 2nd for a while yet anyway. It is purgatory!

Good move. Veteran presence as a former no. 2 overall pick himself will be a great sounding board for the rookie QB the Commanders select at 2.

I read that Mort (Chris Mortensen) died earlier in the month. One of the main NFL reporters on ESPN when I used to watch more often.

Not just the manager though. He keeps taking short term deals with front loaded guarantees from desparate owners.

And the QB market economics are broken.

Cyclops

Comparing him with Brady is dumb. Not only has the salary cap massively increased since Brady's prime, Brady also happily took below market deals because he wanted rings more (and once you've earned 333 million extra money is kind of meaningless).

@Cyclops ...and when your wife is worth $400M ...

The Bears trade Justin Fields to Pittsburgh. Good outcome for Fields. There is a significant chance he will get an opportunity to start either this season or next, strong coaching setup, time to develop. I'm not totally convinced he's a bust, the coaching setup in Chicago was a dumpster fire

@1kiwi Donald one of the best, if not the best of all time. Ridiculously good player.
