Reading about all the FA deals across the league, this has to be the weirdest FA offseason yet. The values of many of the deals and the trades seem strangely out of whack with what most people expected.
I don’t know if this is due to the cap going up soon, or the coronavirus, or what. But this has been a bonkers offseason.
for example, I think a lot of folks thought the Quinn deal was way too high and Clowney would be snatched up fast. Some thought the Jimmy Graham deal was way too high compared to what the Steelers got Ebron for. You have DeAndre Hopkins going for nothing, and some people claiming the Bills gave up too much for Diggs.
Gurley signs for nothing in Atlanta, but Gordon got more guaranteed money from the Broncos than most expected.
I think the list goes on and on. But this struck me as a surprising offseason.
It seems to me the first year everyone is looking for value over splash. Clowney most years would have been day one partially due to splash of signing but everyone seems more conservative. That is my theory on why.

If Dalton would agree to it and accept he is only a back up then fine but why he would accept less money and a predetermined role as a back up. I think the odds of that are less than me dating multiple super models this year

Or they pretended to be interested to drive up the price.
How much did they drive up the price? We gave up a 5th and 6th extra at most. We have more picks than roster spots so they likely are worthless to us anyways.

What is amazing to me is that about 18 months ago this team was 2-7 and looked like hot garbage on offense. Josh Allen then stops losing us games and actually helping us win and I now expect big things. The core around JA is strong and he will be determining factor of how far we go this year
-
Mainly age- it is honestly the only explanation for the dude that is 3rd on the rushing list.
-
The dude was so bad in Arizona they moved on within one year and was outplayed by Fitz in Miami. He might be a backup somewhere but his chances of being good are very slim now.

He had 5100 yards and 34 TD's in 2018. Wait and see what happens after the injury to make those assumptions.
He may be done, hopefully. But there's no way Josh Allen is a better QB until then.
I am gonna stick with the W-L record. Jameis threw for 5100 and 33 TDs last year and is a low level QB. If he comes back from injury and is great at his age he will be the exception not the rule.

Step back how?
That's ludicrous. Josh Allen is not a better QB than Ben Roethlisberger as of yet.
The team has lost 6 of his last 8 starts and his team has a very good D. I also fully expect JA will be better than BR this year based most on Ben being worse than JA major improvement.

I donʻt think Melvin Gordon is going to the Broncos
Broncos paid more for him than I would have like to have paid so I am glad he is not here.

Steelers have the best roster in the AFC. Yikes.
I think Big Ben has taken a step back and I think the rest of the offense is average otherwise- the Defense is obviously impressive but I think we have a better roster then them.
-
Famous Jameis would sow discord from day one. If Josh got hurt JW would work his butt off for 2 games and be great and then fall into his usual pattern of insane stats for highly entertaining 38-35 loss

I think Gordon is probably much better than Hyde, younger too. Gordon is explosive in rushing and receiving. Every team needs a quality backup, one capable of starting if needed, I think Gordon is the best bet, but I'll trust whatever Beane does.
I will trust Beane because he has earned it- you not yet.?

First things first- thanks for link- secondly I am watching first game on here which is Bills Steelers from this year and besides the hope it gives me it makes me realize how bad the officiating is. Honestly the XFL had much better officials then the NFL right now

But Gordon is much better, why not aim higher? If Beane is ok with spending the money I don't understand why fans worry about it.
The only disagreement you and I have is the "much" part. I think Hyde is a 6.5 and Gordon is a 7. Better but not worth 3 million more.

Either one is fine I will trust their judgment. Tbh they are both good players and as RB2 pretty damn good
I would not be upset if we sign Gordon as long as it is 2 years at most. I just prefer Hyde for 2 years
-
Seeing the cost of Rb I would prefer Carlos Hyde for less than 3mil a year for two years than 6 mil for Gordon. Both will be backups and Hyde is a good complement to Singletary.
-
I would love to get Carlos Hyde for about 2.5 mil a year for 2 or 3 years. I see he is predicted to get 2.8 but to get him as our backup to Singletary with his style for that price I think would be a great investment.

The “Christians” have done more than anyone to undermine Christianity in this country. These fraudsters bowing to Trump has exposed their money grubbing hypocrisy better than anyone else could ever hope to do. It’s so funny, now wonder secular humanism is rising so quickly
arguing Trump is not Christian while the Democrats attack everything with any relation to God. I don't love Trump I simply know he is the lesser of two evils.

I'm curious what everyone around here thinks about possibly taking a shot at Xavier Rhodes or Trumaine Johnson?
Like Josh Norman, both guys have struggled mightily over the past few years. But maybe our defensive coaches/system could rejuvenate their careers, especially if we could do a one-year prove-it deal.
I think we already have one of the best secondaries in the NFL.
But I went into the offseason thinking we need 4 guys capable of playing the outside (we only had 3 last year). I would prefer that at least one of those CBs also be able to slide into the slot in case of another Taron Johnson injury.
When were those two good? Was it in a zone D or man to man- not many dudes can do both and switching from one to the other is the demise of many DBs.

If Gurley's knee checks out, get it done. Problem is I suspect his knee is much worse than Rams are letting on. A healthy Gurley, and SIngletary, with Diggs, Smoky, Beasley, and Rambo sounds like best offense since Kgun
Who is Rambo? Is that a nickname for Knox?

They hate Nazis. Why would you hate a group that fights scum bag klanmen, Nazis trash and confederate losers?
Just because SPLC is less bad then those does not make them good, but it is good you realize that there are worse people than Donald Trump

Only if we have a time machine and can bring back the version that worked hard and had talent. This version has neither.

I would want him as the second back with Singletary, he can catch out of backfield and can Handle the load of needed. But obviously he is not a long term solution so two year deal.

I know this is all speculation of the highest order but Jags could definitely do worse than getting Star and Murphy back especially if we eat the contracts like the Texans have done.
Josh Allen deep ball misconception

One thing I noticed from year one to two was how the ball was thrown deep- in year one he threw ropes deep while last year he threw many more lofted throws. The lifted throws require work and coordination with your recievers, hopefully bit improved this year
