lol i hope they like i am ageing myseif QB Jeff Blake and that best case
Appears there is another suitor in the mix. Heard on Sirius NFL network that he had a stopover in NJ on Thursday to speak with the NYG before flying to Pittsburg this morning.
didn't see him on TEN this year, but Byard really slipped this year for PHI, age 30. A better value than Jackson, but might not be the solution they expect at FS (especially in year 2)Bears sign Kevin Byard for 2yrs/$15m. No breakdown of the deal report but some make it sound like it’s largely guaranteed money with some significant bonuses built in.
The Bears cut Eddie Jackson last month and saved $13m ($5m in dead cap). Byard had a better statical season some advanced measures and comes in at about half the Jackson savings.
Chicago with another ~$42m in room (that accounts for draft picks). Watch for them to run at Ridley and be engaged with several of the edge rushers.
The Steelers drafted Pickett with the 20th overall pick. There were plenty of dummies - on this site included - that used 20/20 to shit on the Pats for drafting Mac 15th overall. I'll be waiting for that same vitriol towards the Steelers.The fact that Russ will be the best QB on the team says more about the Steelers' QB room than it does Russ.
Rumors are that the Falcons prefer Cousins & Fields is their plan b.The Fields market is shrinking, unless teams already know he's headed to ATL.
Kind of feel for Pickett. He seems much less insufferable than Mac.
Why bother with Fields in this scenario and not just go with a Brissett?If Chicago would take a 4th or 5th rounder for Fields, which allowed us to trade back and load up on 1st and 2nd round 2024/2025 picks, which would then allow us to draft a Nix/Penix type along with a stud WR and some high OL prospects this year, while building draft depth for 2025, I’d do it.
Tee Higgins requests a trade.

Cousins will be 36, just had a major injury, has never won anything and will likely get a 4-year deal. I think it's defensible to walk away from that. But I agree, you need an immediate plan to address QB. If it's a trade up, that seems like a shakey plan.Really odd figuring out what MN is doing. They have a ridiculous amount of receiving talent and won't have a QB in about an hour? Russel Wilson would have made a lot of sense as a plan B but that is out the window.
Probably nothing but Fields started following DK and the Seahawks on Intsta and SEA HC refused to say Geno would be the starter in 24 when asked this weekend.
Wonder if we see some QB musical chairs once the Cousins domino drops.
That is..... a lot of money for a guard. continues the trend of guards getting RT money (can see why Onwenu allegedly wants to be a guard, he's better at it and the money for a very good guard will be better than for an acceptable T)
At least Cousins knows he should continue to play in a dome (plus another dome in New Orleans and good weather in Tampa and Carolina).
Also, he lives in GA, no way he was turning down, the dome team, where he lives, and who has a much better O-line than any of those teams.This.
All of this.
Cousins will be good in Atlanta. He would be nowhere near as good on a team like New England, Pittsburgh, Denver, etc.
Not to mention Bijan, Pitts and London.Also, he lives in GA, no way he was turning down, the dome team, where he lives, and who has a much better O-line than any of those teams.
To go with Kmet and DJ Moore.Caleb Williams, Swift, and someone like Odunze would be an exciting offense for Bears fans.
Amazing he checked all his options and agreed to a complex deal in 40 minutes.

I know the cap is going up but I can't imagine I would ever have a positive reaction to my team signing a free agent RB to this type of deal.
Especially one like Pollard who took a step back last year as a lead guy. But they have Spears as well so should be a decent rotation.I know the cap is going up but I can't imagine I would ever have a positive reaction to my team signing a free agent RB to this type of deal.
One bullet dodged, just need someone else to give Ridley his overpay and we're in good shape
What FA WR are you after?One bullet dodged, just need someone else to give Ridley his overpay and we're in good shape
