Only two players tagged at the deadline... lowest since '94 😮 (Trey Smith w/ KC & Tee w/ CIN)

Osa got paid by Dallas.

Bears trading a 2026 4th to the Chiefs for Joe Thuney and a 2025 6th to the Rams for Jonah Jackson. Looks like Ben Johnson is following the model set by the Panthers' last season... 👀

I read today that the Cardinals might swap Murray for a first round pick.  They may want to draft Ward or Sanders.  Personally, I would keep Murray over either of those two, but you never know.  

The only reason to do that is to dump his contract on someone else. I definitely think it would not be for a talent upgrade from this draft. Although the bar is not very high it seems.

Well, you never really know.  Analyst get it wrong all the time.  A lot of people thought Trubisky was better than Mahomes.  Cam Ward could end up being great.  But I personally wouldn't take the risk if I were the Cardinals GM/Owner.  Get someone who will make the team better and maybe draft a qb later.

NFL Network reports that Dolphins Safety Jevon Holland will hit free agency.  Mentioned the Panthers as a potential landing spot.  Said his salary will be between $15-20m.

Can't get onboard with it. He's a good safety but if you want elite money you need to be a game changer.

I think if we are patient in free agency we can find some value.  When they raise the cap, some of these players and GMs are like kids with a dollar when they hear the ice cream truck music.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
