Targeted one time is roasted? WHAT?

Yeah but that target resulted in two yards. We can’t have that.

Gave up a 118 QB rating in that game. Can't have the opponent throw a TD every time he looks in your direction.

My guy Patrick Peterson held opponents out of the end zone for 13 consecutive weeks. #geauxtigers

The Packers are expected to sign Josh Jacobs, source tell me and @tompelissero. A stunner. NFLThreads

My feeling is you can't force stars and superstars. That's how you end up trading a first for Hollywood Brown.

That was a stupid move from the start - Keim was desperate and overpaid for a middling talent that the Ravens were desperate to unload. I think the Eagles would say they were happy to trade a first for AJ Brown - did they force a star/superstar?

I agree it's a high-risk proposition, but the #1 asset that Michael Bidwill has is time. The franchise isn't going anywhere and it's hard to imagine attendance being worse in 2024. Literally any move they make this year is likely to improve the roster, so we're going to be pre-excited for any season that ends between five and eight wins (barring injury).

5-8 wins - the Cardinal way. 3 year rebuilds are the expectation these days?

I don't see a lot of potential for Ojulari or Williams to be more than solid starters. But if you take Calvin Ridley and add him to this 2024 roster, does that move the needle on the results?

Who knows? I'd like to find out. I'd sure as hell rather pay him than Hollywood and have an actual adult in the WR room.

There are plenty of professional players on the defensive line likely to be signed in the next 10 days; hopefully some of them will be Cardinals. I don't think any of the guys that I liked for the Cards have been signed.

There is always hope!

Quelle surprise!

Replacement level: Could start for the Arizona Cardinals.

Are you insinuating the TD pass was the only time Williams’ man was looked at?

Kyzir White set a nice pick on him that play.

Just a weird game for you to lock in on.

 

[BritCard]

This is a ridiculous amount of money for a 3rd down pass rush specialist

That's a great case. People get mad when it's noted that Monti was involved in that decision (if not the trigger man). That trade was obviously a mistake by the Titans in real time -- not just in retrospect. Their GM got fired a year later. I don't care how impatient Brown was for an extension.

From the Eagles' perspective, they were probably trying to keep a window open after making the playoffs in 2021. It worked. Even if AJ Brown remained an 900 yard-type receiver it helps your young QB in Jalen Hurts and maybe opens up stuff for your highly drafted WR prospect DeVonta Smith.

They got way more out of that deal than they expected, I think. AJ Brown's salary cap numbers the past three seasons have been $5.7MM (2022), $8.3MM (2023), and $12.4MM (2024). That's an amazing value.

Howie Roseman obviously knows how this works.

No. It sucks! But it certainly seems like that's an acceptable timeline for Michael. A 2024 season where we were fewer than six games will suck very much.

 

[BritCard]

Lol Rams. Just give all your money to Guards.

Hernandez is going to hold out.

Did Steve Avila die? Assume they try him at center.

Monti might be learning what it's like to try to lure people to play for the Arizona Cardinals.

You don't want to overpay, but you have to overpay = supply and demand can't meet

Cousins to Atlanta. 4 year deal. Vikings would have never done that.

We inch ever closer to the Jon Gaines/Elijah Wilkinson/Denis Daley LG competition.

Hurts the trade market for Fields even more.

Like it or not Monti is going to live or die via the draft. We'll see what he does in the 'after Christmas sale' later this week.

LOL.

I'm dying.

This post is pure Walter Mitchell bad. You don't know what Ossenfort was responsible for with the Titans. Trash post.

 

[Chopper0080]

$85 million guaranteed is the problem.

It's isn't my 85 mil. And, to be clear, our interior DL in the actual problem.

Called that one yesterday!

 

[Krangodnzr]

This logic is ridiculous.

I don't care about the money Michael spends, I care in so far as that loading up a lot of guarantees can hurt the teams ability to sign people in future.

 

[PDXChris]

It's isn't my 85 mil. And, to be clear, our interior DL in the actual problem.

Yup! Overspending on player like him give confidence to other players you're interested in winning now. It's a statement signing as much as a impact on the team signing.

 

[Krangodnzr]

I think everyone called this signing. It was a perfect situation. Falcons had no shot at drafting a guy and they have the team to be successful immediately.

Good move for Cousins.

Who is slinging Justin Jefferson the ball now? They don't have a top pick in the draft, not many free agent options.

LOL this is a typical Raiders move.
