Around the NFL - FA tampering/start
 

Not necessarily FA news but Mac Jones traded to the Jaguars for a 6th. WOW

I remember wanting us to take him so badly. Yet another reason why I have no clue about what makes a great qb at draft time.

Somebody needs to educate me because I have no idea why the Jags would want Mac Jones.

You gotta have a backup qb. Mac Jones is just as good as any rookie qb they'd use that 6th round pick on.

I'm not opposed to holding onto Howell for this reason. He already has starting experience and riding the bench for a couple seasons might do him some good. But if we can get a 3rd or 2nd for him take it and run.

Russ to Steelers. [url]https://sports.yahoo.com/russell-wilsons-hurried-deal-with-steelers-may-say-a-lot-about-his-intentions-and-pittsburghs-053652799.html[/url]

Russ is washed.

Mac Jones now begins his NFL journey as a career backup.

Denver is paying Wilson $38M to not play for them. Amazing how far he's fallen.

Re: Around the NFL - FA tampering/start
 

Russ is not the player he once was, but I don't think he's done. Pittsburgh will be relevant this year. He's not in Denver anymore due to Sean Payton's arrogance. That was a relationship that was failed from the start.

This is why its so crucial to land that QB Pick...

Look at how many 1st round guys move around all the time.

In fact the QB classes of 21 and 22 were bad

Re: Around the NFL - FA tampering/start
 

Higgins wants to be traded. I'm actually surprised by this cuz there were talks about Burrow, Chase and Higgins wanting to stay together but I suppose Bengals have different plans.

And no, I'm not saying that we should trade for him. I personally like Higgins but we have other needs that need to be filled urgently this year.

Re: Around the NFL - FA tampering/start
 

Russ gets 38 million from Denver, plus whatever the Steelers pay him, gets away from Payton and is in a better landing spot. Sounds like he's still winning.

using hindsight but i am sure this time year before those drafts the "experts" were all talking them up as the next great thing

I say I want JD but really i want whomever Adam thinks is best and if he thinks there isn't anything worthy of a number two pick then trade away and start filling holes

Bears sign Swift for 8m py, alot for a RB.

[QUOTE]Ian Rapoport
The #Bears are expected to sign former #Eagles starting RB D’Andre Swift as their new starting running back, per me and @MikeGarafolo.

He gets a 3-year, $24M deal[/QUOTE]
