A lot of "boo hooing" by Bills and Steeler fans that Stefanski got selected over McDermott for COY and Aaron Donald was picked over TJ Watt for DPOY. Both that were selected were more deserving.

Looks like Russell Wilson is taking notes from Deshaun Watson and trying to find a "classy" way out of Seattle, complaining about his pass protection. Some may not know this but back in 2017 Seattle inquired about trying to move Wilson to the Browns for the #1 overall pick which turned out to be Myles Garrett.

The cap is completely messed-up this year, @ $25M lower than last year.  Some teams, like PIT, are way over.  Other teams have a ton of cap space, so they have a competitive advantage NOT to vote to make it higher.

Fair and equitable would have been to spread the 2020 covid losses over the remaining 10 years of the CBA.  But if you're NYJ, for example, you've got $75M to spend and a chance to scoop up a bunch of cap cuts at a discount with much less money sloshing around in FA than typical years.

Yeah, about that...

Mike Maccagnan may have been the worst GM in the history of the NFL. Certainly the worst in the history of the Jets.

I'm just kind of mind-boggled by Urban's thought process. Hire the guy who was let go by a college for alleged racist/abusive behavior midway through LAST YEAR based on knowing him for a long time and thinking that's gonna have a chance in hell of going over well in today's world. Simple logic says that when you're inheriting a typically-shitty team like the Jags, you're going to have your work cut out for you, so why the hell would you hire a guy whose reputation would likely impede your chances of success? It's tough enough for bad teams to attract upper-tier free agents or keep their homegrown talent without hiring people who'd make them a less desirable destination than they already are.

Maybe the only thing worse was ESPN talking about it.

He needs to retire so the Browns can trade for Lattimore.

Watt to the Cardinals.

But if an odd choice, imo. Unless he never actually said he wanted a contender, and that was media driven.

Concur.

I bet once all the info comes out, this was his most lucrative offer of guaranteed money.
