Damn.  Locked Rodgers in and then shipped his favorite guy to Vegas.  Davante is an absolute stud so he’s gonna succeed wherever he goes.  His route running and release off the line are amazing.  Best WR in the league imo (Kupp’s right behind him)

Boone and Asheville. Towns full of rich kids acting like they're poor hippies, it's the worst 

If Boone and Asheville bother you, try spots like Boulder, CO and Berkeley, CA. Wealthy trustafarians are a whole different level of annoying compared to mere rich trustafarians.

Isn't Rodgers gonna be pretty pissed about this? That was one of the reasons he chose to stay. 

No, this draft has WRs all over…even Rodgers knows a deal like that for a WR is insane.  They go get him 3 this offseason

Christian Kirk gets 18M/year. 

Devante Adams gets 28M/year.

Is DJ Moore gonna cost 22M/year?

 

 

 

28M a year for a WR?  Not me.  Randy Moss at his peak isn’t worth that contact.  Adams will not, in any way, match his numbers he had with Rodgers while in Vegas.  It will not happen, I have a million dollars to bet.  And I really like Carr.

That contract is lunacy

If we aren't ready to give Moore 22/year, the prudent thing would be to trade him to a WR needy team for a 1st or 2nd round pick.

DJ would be like the only high cost player we have by this time next year (they're moving on from Shaq and CMC if he's still getting hurt) so yes, pay him. He's good, still young and getting better every year. And your QB needs guys to throw to. Don't get cute

Aaron Rodgers has the well deserved reputation of being a total prick. 

His huge contract will have negative consequences when it comes to supporting talent.

Russell Wilson has the same issue.  He couldn't seem to figure out why his supporting cast was never as good as when he was still on a rookie contract.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
