2018 NFL Off-Season Thread

[GhostMachine]

Colin Kaepernick's waste of time and money, aka the depositions for his collusion bullshit, started. First person to have their time wasted was Bob McNair, the owner of the Houston Texans.

The only things Kaep are going to get out of this are a guaranteed certainty he never plays another down of NFL football, and a huge ass legal bill once all is said and done. I'm almost hoping the courts decide that it is a waste of time and resources, and slaps a fine on him as well.

Houston have signed the Honey Badger!

Justin Pugh to the Cardinals. 

Bears matched Green Bay's offer for Kyle Fuller so he'll be staying put.

Blount has signed for the Lions.

Ryan Jensen to Tampa.

[Adam]

Tyrann Mathieu's been played by his agent, leaving us because he thought he could get more money then having to accept a 1-year deal for less money than we were offering him as a restructure.

Also, it seems everyone we're signing has a big injury asterisk next to their name. Like, they're all decent signings if you're playing Madden but in reality we risk half the team going down injured within weeks of the season starting.

[VerbalPuke]

I really like the Blount signing. Definitely nice to finally have a real power back. Now we probably draft one to go along with him, we're going to have a ton of running backs competing in camp. Hopefully he doesn't punch anybody out.

God I hope Darnold and Rosen go 1 and 2. The Jets giving up all of that for Josh Allen would be hilarious.

[Lineker]

Bills better hope that they can get up to the 2 spot then.

 

Also increases the odds of Cleveland being able to land their QB and Barkley, I guess.

[The Buscher]

The very early reaction I'm seeing is that it would be too costly for the Bills and other teams picking in the middle of the round to move up to #2, and that the Jets were probably the Giants' best match for a trading partner.  Now that's gone the Giants may well be stuck where they are, which is okay if they truly do want to ensure they get one of Darnold or Rosen, but if they aren't sold on them (or the one they want goes to Cleveland) it's going to put them in a pretty awkward spot.

#6 would've been the perfect spot for the Giants to take Quenten Nelson and pocket a boatload of extra picks.  Yeah they can still take him at #2 but from a pure value standpoint it's still very hard to take a guard that early unless they're convinced he's going to be a perennial All-Pro.

The Jets just should’ve signed over their franchise. For three spots?! My laws.

[Lineker]

Danny Woodhead has announced his retirement.

Seattle have signed Jaron Brown.

Orlando Scandrick is expected to be released by the Cowboys.

With a team like the Jets in your division, who needs rivals?

Where the heck is Lineker?

Vinnie Curry to Tampa (Bay!!!) for three years at $27 million.

Thought I'd throw you a bone pal.

[Lineker]

Oakland have traded Cordarrelle Patterson to New England.

[TCO]

Isn't he the guy who apparently wasn't intelligent enough to learn the playbook or route trees when he was at the Vikings?

I can't see that ending well with Belichick and the Patriots playbook.

Hey that's my birthday. Pretty good season opener, especially with Cousins leading the Vikings offense for the first time.
