    Zlatan always finds a way to get noticed. But he's really late on in the career at this point.

    Bills are talking to Browns about #1 supposedly. Trading with them for #4 doesn't make sense for Buffalo, b/c in that scenario Cleveland is almost certainly taking QB at #1, and Jets are clearly taking a QB at #3. Trading that much to move up to #4 for the 3rd QB (and that's hoping Giants go...

    Were some Caps fans who thought he just needed a "change of scenery" and that we should deal for him at the deadline, heh.

    Guess you didn't read pages back when we were talking about it. He was offered a deal after his first year starting, but his agent wanted him to play under the tags and bet on himself to get to free agency. His stats were top 10, though last year they dropped a bit in some categories. Just...

    No...I don't think that's likely either. At best he's equal to Cousins, likely slightly worse in some areas, better in a couple. But unlike Minnesota, we didn't have the roster to go all in on a fully guaranteed deal for that much when we have so many other holes. Thus, this deal. Which I...

    I guess I'll have to correct you. Smith's extension (which kicks in next year) averages $23M and change a year, while Cousins is getting $28M a year for the next 3 years from Minnesota. Actual cap hit breakdown is a little different (partially because Smith still has 1 year under his old...

    So Cathan, you think the Redskins fucked up not paying Cousins all that money for just 3 years, fully guaranteed? I agree the situation could have been handled better, earlier, but there's some evidence he was always looking to get paid on the tags and hit free agency. Also...taking one in 1st...

    Wish you all would have just won in regulation, would have been an almost flawless night for the Caps with Pens losing to Isles in regulation too. Columbus coming on strong, though.

    So are some of you saying Barkley will amount to nothing in the NFL? What are we going to set the over/under on his stats for a "successful" season? Although obviously we might want to wait to see where he goes before setting those expectations.

    Mysteriously, Ryan Grant was able to pass another physical and signed a 1 year prove it deal with the Colts for $5 million. I wish the Colts played the Ravens this year, but they don't.

    I think this is the point I and others have been making prior to this though...Cleveland isn't winning a title any time soon, regardless of who they draft at QB.

    An average RB would not have put up the numbers McCoy did, was my main point. Agreed on everything with Buffalo, it's even funnier b/c the Ravens allowed a 45 yard TD pass on 4th and 12 to Cincy to lose their spot to Buffalo. Great running back still matters though. The idea that they...

    2018 NFL Offseason Thread -- Philadelphia Burning Edition

    Hang on now, I thought RB success was only a function of how good your oline was and how good your QB was. If Taylor is trash than there's no way McCoy could have had the seasons he did have (not sure where exactly we'd rank Buffalo's line, but they were hardly the Dallas line of a couple years...

    This is all why Lesean McCoy has never had a good year at Buffalo with Tyrod Taylor at QB, right? No, I don't think Taylor is a long term answer at QB for Cleveland, but lets not pretend he isn't better than what they've had there recently, either. It's also not a normal draft situation to...

    Unless the Browns really have someone rated higher than the others in that group, or think/know that the Giants or Jets might take the guy they really want (if they actually have one they really want over the others), I'd expect them to take Barkley at #1, and it wouldn't be stupid. Again...if...

    Well if they feel like they need to move back up to get a tackle to replace Thomas, they also have picks #33, #35, and #64 in Round 2 to use as draft capital.

    Seems like a lot of picks for the Jets to give up to move from 6 to 3 in a deep draft. This draft isn't like 2012 when it was top heavy with just 2 guys. But yeah, maybe Jets fell in love with one guy, and/or they're putting pressure on the Browns to pick their QB at #1 instead of believing...

    I was actually happy they called it at that point, I'll take the 50/50 on the penalty shot versus a minute fifty of 4 on 3 they would have had in OT for a normal minor penalty. Icing on the cake you guys stole the other point in OT, too.
