All things NFL FA thread

[Jay Roosevelt]

Vikings cut Riley Reiff. Could be a decent LT option.

[TheSpecialJuan]

Cards cut CB Robert Alford 

[Basbear]

I swear a few of these guys will just retire rather than take a small one year deal. Draft will be more valuable this year and UDFAs too.

TB12 has taken a different approach. By not taking so much cap space, he's showing he cares about one thing, winning rings. That's why guys take smaller deals to be with him. It's about the whole, not the individual pieces. He makes 12m a year off endorsements to offset what he doesn't make in the NFL (Giselle does make bank though), and that makes winning a whole lot easier. You don't get big endorsement deals if you don't win. And winning is what he does. It's a smart business plan for him and the team. It worked with the Patriots, probably will work in Tampa too.

I'm not looking so much at what that says about Brady as what it does about Wilson.

I was also in a roundabout way. Wilson looks selfish, arrogant and is acting like a diva. Brady looks selfless, business like and is acting like he wants rings. Two completely different attitudes, and very different results because of it.

Brady is also getting what he wants. A say in personnel (ie. Gronk and AB). He wasn't in New England, so he left.

So that Dan Sileo guy is saying he was right about Cam deal when he said he was coming back on Feb 25th. No he is saying Jets have huge deal to get Wilson and trade Darnold. Also updated Texans are listening to offers says it’s Dolphins, Panthers, 49ers. I know I know he is garbage but something to talk about lol.

[BurnNChinn]

Hey @SizzleBuzzI guess he should honor his contract as well? Yeah he asked for a trade and they gave it to him. What Houston is doing to Watson is wrong, and everyone knows it

[Mr. Scot]

Texans also traded the Patriots for tackle Marcus Cannon.

The time of year we play along...tell these guys, "OK, I'll bite"  I still say, "Do not fall asleep on Denver."   That is what I say.
