Sucks it happened to him, but after the Watson and Wilson contracts I'm guessing there's a bit of owner collusion to get these guaranteed contracts back down to the mid $100m's

I think we all know it was collusion. Nobody is getting the Watson deal anytime soon. These owners talk behind the scenes this was them coming together and saying "F that".

 

Im guessing Lamar will probably get the Kyler Murray deal with 189 mil guaranteed or a little more.

So, what if those contracts were just outliers?  One or two owners do something extreme/dumb does not mean the rest of the owners have to do the same thing.

As for Lamar, he is not a victim here of some grand conspiracy.  As I mentioned in earlier...a QB in his same draft class...who has an agent (Josh Allen) to date has made over $80 mil...Lamar, who has no agent, has made a bit over $30 mill to date.

Some people just make better business decisions than others.

We've got quite a lot invested in the secondary already not sure how much more we can risk. 1st round top ten pick another on a significant contract coming off an achilles tear another we traded a 3rd for. Not much wiggle room.

Did yall know that Okudah was benched later in the season? He has not lived up to expectations so the Lions gave him up for pennies on the dollar. Like CJ Henderson, there's a reason that the team that drafted him so high was ready to cut him loose.

Okudah was horrible. Falcons fans celebrating this move is comical.

idk....it seemed like the light bulb finally turned on after the midway mark last year. Drafted at 21 by a different regime, lost a year to injury as well. 

Not saying he's the second coming of Revis, but for a fifth...yeah, I'm seeing what he's got as a CB2. Horn on one side and Evero and DeAngelo working with him at 24 years old.

      The question is which Bryce shows up game 1. Do we get week 2 (2024) Bryce, or week 18 (2024) Bryce?  I will say that his progression after the benching last year was amazing. He literally got better every game - sans Dallas. Like every week he did something we hadn't seen him do before. And it wasn't luck, toss it up for grabs plays like Penix did against Carolina. Penix was just throwing the ball as hard as he could in the direction of a receiver and hoping they'd make a play for him. What we saw from Bryce was different. Decision making, reading defenses, recognizing blitzes and where they were coming from, knowing his hot, avoiding pressure and manipulating the pocket, throwing with anticipation, taking shots downfield, and running the ball surprisingly well. Stats don't always tell the story. Did he miss some throws that he should have made - sure did. But the clutch gene is strong with this one. One score game and Carolina has the ball with 2 minutes on the clock - I'm confident he'll give them a chance to win more than he doesn't.

      I really like David Moore. He's a reliable WR. Smart, doesn't drop the ball and he's where he's supposed to be. Now, he ain't gonna route up a DB. He ain't gonna 50/50 ball a DB. He ain't gonna run by a DB either. But he runs a good enough route and catches the ball - definitely an NFL average WR. Every team could use a David Moore. Now if this receiving group can force Dan and Dave to let him go, then this team has come a long way since 2023. A LONG way. But I will say that Horn's speed is a big deal. They don't really have another guy with speed and quickness to blow the top off the defense and make guys miss in space after the catch, though he is still a rookie and hasn't done it in the NFL. If he and Renfrow push Moore out, then we might actually have something gents. Plus I see Renfrow as Thielen's replacement in 2026. I just don't think Coker is the reliable, move the chains guy like Thielen. Could be wrong.
