I see Aaron Rodgers is on his publicity tour again.  There is no reason for making the Giants wait.  The Giants pick at #3.  I would sign save the money and the drama and take Sanders and sign Flacco for a year.  I realize that careers are on the line in the front office in NY--so does Rodgers.  But he is done--I think he loves seeing everyone talking about him.   Get Sanders, build the ol and when he is ready, move him into the job.  Steelers?  You'd then be left with Wilson...again.

Titans have released cornerback Chidobe Awuzie, who played in eight games for the team in 2024, including seven that he started.

was good vs the run.  was injured and on a $12m per contract.  He would be excellent depth for us at the right price ...29 years old

Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins are about to get paid

The two Bengals receivers are getting to finalizing a deal and they both could have a new contract in the coming days, according to NFL Media

Chase has been told by the Bengals that he'll be the highest paid non-QB in the NFL, so that likely means he'll be getting a deal that tops the $40 million per year that Myles Garrett is making.

As for Higgins, the highest-paid No. 2 receiver in the NFL is Jaylen Waddle at $28.25 million per year, so you can almost certainly expect him to top that. The most likely scenario is that he gets at least $30 million per year,  which means the Bengals will be paying an average of $125 million per year to Joe Burrow and his top two receivers. 

Rumor on the twitters is they did pay them just waiting on details.

Falcons keeping Cousins

Cousins will not be released by Atlanta after all, as the Falcons will be paying a $10 million roster bonus that is due in 2026. The Falcons couldn't find a trade partner to take on his contract, so Cousins will back up Michael Penix in 2025 -- barring a trade later this offseason. His dead cap is $65 million.

I dont know how this happened, but if I am the coach, I am furious because the front office created a potential problem in the locker room and they are wasting money I could be using to win games.

The San Francisco 49ers are trading running back Jordan Mason to the Minnesota Vikings, his agents, Jason and Michael Katz, told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Saturday. The Vikings will also receive the No. 187 pick in April's NFL draft and send a 2026 sixth-round pick and the No. 160 pick in this draft to the Niners, sources told Schefter.

 

The Vikings are signing Mason to a two-year deal with over $7 million fully guaranteed, with a maximum value of $12 million.

Trading for a RB is perplexing.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
