NFL Free Agency Around the League

Took away a preseason game at least. Probably won't be long until it's 18 regular season and just 2 preseason. All about the $$. Why do fans care anyway? More meaningful football is a good thing.

Also more games that no one will give a damn about.

We all know taking away a preseason game and adding a regular season game is 100% not the same.



Its just we were fed all this safety stuff yet they add in a game and continue the Thursday game.



NFL is too watered down. More games and more teams in the playoffs does not mean a better product.Players agreed to this for a larger part of revenues, does that make them hypocrites too?

So the league sits there and talks about safety first and then adds an extra games. What a bunch of liars.


It's OK, the coaches will still be wearing a piece of cloth on their chins. That makes everyone safe.

It's still only 20 games total, and it was already collectively bargained.

No way did the 49ers trade up to 3 to take Jones. They're either taking Wilson or Fields.


Maybe not ... unless he's their guy. If so, then why not?

Interesting stuff here:

A LOT of talking heads out there linking Mac Jones to SF after that trade. It's certainly possible, but I'm not sure I buy it. I don't buy much of anything this time of year...it's all smoke and mirrors between now and the draft.

If they used all that capital for Jones then they better hope he pans out. I doubt that they did though. He could have been had at 6 just by trading directly with the eagles. No need to jump to 3.

I think that it is fair to say, that no matter who they pick after giving up that much capital, they will certainly be hoping that he pans out.

Maybe ... but you aren't saving a ton of draft capital in a trade to move to just 6. You're still giving up a butt load of picks. So why risk just going to #6? You may as well go all the way to 3, and dare one of the top 2 picks to draft Jones.


This could all be smoke.

But the way Shanahan has talked after pulling off the trade, and the similarities between Jones and Matt Ryan and Kirk Cousins ... it certainly "fits".

It's not a gamble I would make.

But I'm not sold on any of these QB's after Trevor Lawrence. (I'm also a benefits specialist. So what da fuq do I know? haha).

Yep. Plenty of examples of jumping up to the top 3 for a QB - and he doesn't pan out.

I think I saw something the other day that out of the last six or seven QBs that were taken after a team traded into the top 3 to get him, only one is still on his original team (for now) - Sam Darnold
