Our WR room is still pretty concerning. Maybe im nuts but I do feel like Coker has some pretty massive upside. 
 

does Lockett still have speed? We still need speed 

Elijah Moore is only 24 and has been plagued by the Jets and Browns for his career. 4.35 40 time when he was drafted. At 24, should still have most of that.

Falcons make another move at cornerback

The Falcons re-signed cornerback Mike Hughes on Tuesday, and now, they've added even more depth at the position. Mike Ford has agreed to a two-year, $4 million deal with the Browns, according to ESPN. 

The former Browns corner didn't start any games last season, but he did see action in all 17 games for Cleveland. It's a return to Atlanta for Ford, who spent the 2022 season with the Falcons.

Will the Falcons actually keep Kirk Cousins? 

At the NFL combine, Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot said the team would NOT be releasing Kirk Cousins. So will the Falcons actually go through with keeping Cousins? 

It would make sense for two seasons:

1. He could be trade bait. If the Falcons cut Cousins, they don't get anything in return if he signs somewhere else. However, if a QB gets injured this year or if a team finds itself in desperate need of a QB, the Falcons would be in a spot where they could trade Cousins for decent draft compensation. The only problem with this possible plan is that Cousins has a no-trade clause, so he can veto any deal. That being said, if he wants to be a starter somewhere and his options are "get traded or be the Falcons backup" then he might accept a trade. 

2. Cousins' upcoming $10 million roster bonus. Cousins has a $10 million roster bonus that becomes guaranteed on the fifth day of the league year (March 17), but that money isn't due to him until March 2026. The Falcons could keep him for one more season and then let Cousins test free agency in 2026. If Cousins did that and signed a deal worth more than $10 million with another team, the Falcons would owe him nothing due to offsets. 

Basically, the Falcons could theoretically keep him and it wouldn't be complicated, so it will be interesting to see what happens in this situation. As we mentioned yesterday, the Browns are ready to pounce on Cousins if he becomes available.

The Seattle Seahawks have agreed to a one-year contract with free agent wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, a source told ESPN.

 

The Seahawks are in need of receiving help for new quarterback Sam Darnold after agreeing to trade DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers and releasing Tyler Lockett.

 

In Seattle, Valdes-Scantling will be reunited with Klint Kubiak, the new Seahawks offensive coordinator who was Valdes-Scantling's offensive coordinator last season with the New Orleans Saints.

Chargers re-sign another linebacker

Not only did the Chargers re-sign OLB Khalil Mack, but they were also make a deal to keep ILB Troy Dye. The 28-year-old, who started five games last season for the Chargers, is set to sign a two-year, $5.5 million deal that could be worth as much as $8.5 million, according to NFL Media.

Although he wasn't a regular starter, Dye still managed to total a career-high 57 tackles in 2024, which ranked fifth on the team. 

The Chargers also re-signed Jalen Reagor, who caught seven passes for 100 yards in 2024, which was his first season with the team.

Jets take a flyer on pass-rusher

The New York Jets have agreed to terms on a one-year deal with Rashad Weaver, NFL Media has reported . Weaver was taken by the Titans in the fourth-round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He had a breakout season in 2022 with 5.5 sacks, but he hasn't done much since. Last season, he saw action in just three games while playing for the Houston Texans. The Jets will be hoping he can get back to his 2022 form in New York.

We're nearing the official opening of NFL free agency (today at 4 p.m. ET) after two days of the legal negotiating window. So who are some of the bigger veteran names who still haven't agreed to new deals:

Cooks would cook in the slot. Keenan Allen has some age on him but him and AT would be sure handed vets.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.

      Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
