Will we resign DJ Moore?

Looking at what guys like Gallup and Kirk got I’m starting to think DJ is as good as gone….

$84 million for career high 982 receiving yards? The Jaguars* just fuged over everybody.

This trend started scaring once I was seeing what guys like agholor and what not were bringing in. Now kirk who has like 4 career 100 yard games is amongst the highest paid setting the bar... I'm starting to think teams will be better off drafting a WR in first and just exhaust all years with option on the rookie deal and then start fresh. Just treat them like rbs on rookie contracts only

We can't talk about anyone else fuging over everybody. Tepper reset the coaching market hiring a bum from Baylor and he's going to reset the elite QB power structure in the NFL if he lands Watson. David Tepper is the most desperate man in football.

Yeah valid but coaching salaries aren't under the salary cap. And coaches have been making bonkers money in college too. There is certainly validity to the question of QB power structure but I think we're getting there anyway this may only accelerate it. He may not be the only team to consider that either this is a rare unprecedented trade in general.

But if we want Watson I don't see how shipping off CMC or Moore appeals to him.

DJ will be Houston's problem.

Or most foolish

Would have been nice once again for Rhule to have played the young guys he drafted so we could see what TMJ and Shi can handle

[Evil Hurney]

The cap is a myth and DJ is a really good WR. He'll be back.

The scary thing is he might be both. Nothing more dangerous than maximum dumb and maximum desperate.

How did hiring Rhule reset the coaching market.  If anything, Rhule is a cautionary tale.  If you overpay for a lemon, it doesn't mean everyone else will suddenly rush out and overpay for a lemon.

And after seeing seattle get that haul for Wilson and Rodgers get 150m, I can't imagine what we have to pay for Watson will be significantly more insane.
