NFL News Official Free Agency 2018

[DaBruinz]

Vikings just signed Cousins and just traded for Sieman. WTH?

Well, they needed QBs since they let the three they had all walk..

Russini is generally okay, but she has gotten some things very, very wrong:

Didn’t she break the cooks trade?

That was 12 months ago. Josina Anderson directly contradicted her “inside information” on the Cowboys and Suh shortly thereafter and she seems to have good sources (mostly the players themselves, it seems). I’ll go with Josina.

BTW.. For people lamenting the loss of Butler. He could have stayed if he'd wanted. He chose not to:

And when he balked, the Pats were in a corner and went out and signed Gilmore. Probably part of the reason BB soured on Butler so severely.

Gilmore's a better corner, but I hate that Butler is gone.

Hmm interested to see what the pick is. I’m one of his biggest critics, but Siemian is a solid backup. Denver has gotta be drafting a QB in the first or second round.

I don't think it was an either/or proposition. I think that the Pats were perfectly willing to pay Butler AND Gilmore. And when Butler decided that the Pats offer wasn't good enough, the Pats decided to move on at that moment..

If Butler had said yes, you think the Pats would have moved on Gilmore? I'm guessing this was what they had offered Butler BEFORE going and getting Gilmore. I could be wrong on that.

Welp shoot. There goes Nelson, the writing is on the wall.

Honestly, given that Butler didn't play in the SB as what was apparently some combination of gameplan/sickness/discipline I think it's highly feasible they didn't like something in his game and would have gone after Gilmore regardless.

 

[Froob]

I think Butler is more of an 8 mill dollar guy. Getting overrated.

 

[KDPPatsfan85]

Kendricks please!!

 

[Uptown]

 

[TBR]

Teams better not help Philly. Get them to release both.

 

[Soliel]

That’s true frown. 8 mill is about right

 

[long distance]

yep

 

[Froob]

Titans have an interesting team, I’d feel a lot better at them with a more experienced or seasoned coach. I think it’s way too early to give Vrabes a HC job. Probably fired within a few seasons to be honest. I think he’ll be a very good one down the road but he doesn’t have much experience.

 

[Froob]

Gronk retiring confirmed? Or does this confirm Brady pushed Jimmy out?

 

[luuked]

yep

**** him. If any splash signing take Mathieu.. at least he would appreciate the culture & coaching. and BB would nerd the **** out with him all over he defense.
