man its going to be tight tight trying to pay both JJ and Clowney 15 mil plus

These are the things that having a starting QB on a rookie contract allows you to do. At some point, teams are going to wise up and realize that you can't pay non-elite QBs $20M+ per season and still build a winning team. The Kirk Cousins of the world getting elite QB pay is a team crippler.

It also wouldn't shock me if the Texans use this to potentially shop him around.

and this is why Khalil Mack was traded and the Bears happily paid him QB money.

With the Eagles re-signing Brandon Graham, they are looking to trade Michael Bennett. I know a lot of you are not fond of him but he’s a solid DE with an affordable contract. $7.2M and $8M for the next 2 seasons. I think he’d be a great choice for a stop gap.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
