Could pretty easily argue Tampa has the overall more talented roster between the two and they have a ton of cap space to work with as well.

Official per Schefter (but he didn't tweet it for some reason).

My guess is we land neither.

Because they probably view Dak as a significantly better and obviously much younger player.

Do they not realize I'm trying to do comp pick math? It's very inconsiderate.

Yeah, wonder what's up with that.

Can get a better DT for less money IMO.

I think I'm about to be proven wrong about his price tag.

Is there an actual tweet saying he’s re-signed because the one in the OP isn’t saying that.

I don't think we can assume that at all yet. In fact, I would say it's probably unlikely.

I like this a lot. Think the price was slightly higher than I would have expected, but honestly not surprised he cost at least a 1st. Great WR on a great contract long-term. Makes a lot of sense for us; he checks every box we've been missing. We have 2 years to figure out if Josh Allen is the guy or not and with this trade, we know for a fact that (barring injuries) he won't have any excuses if he doesn't show significant improvement these next two years. If Allen thrives, the trade was worth it because we paired him with a great WR that helped him take the next step in his development. If he fails, the trade was worth it because it tells us without a doubt that we need a new QB. Relying on a rookie WR to step in from Day 1 and be the #1 or #2 guy was clearly a risk that Beane didn't want to take. Can't say I blame him at all for feeling that way, especially when the alternative is bringing in a great young WR at an affordable salary.

It's possible that this results in Trent being cut, but that would just create the need for another pass rusher again. Shaq out, Addison in, at least for now.

I would say Byron is elite. Xavien is just good though.

Idk about the Shaq and Flowers contracts, but Byron Jones is a stud.

Interesting. Curious to see who we sign now.

Yeah, I mean, it's undeniable that Baltimore will be a tough out. They and the Chiefs should probably be the favorites to win the Super Bowl. I like the makeup of Indy's team a lot assuming they address the WR position at some point in free agency and or the draft. I suspect they'll be better than us too. We'll see as we go. New England might take a step back. Houston seems very likely to take a step back. There's no reason we shouldn't be in the playoff race again next season, and I say that as what I would describe as a very cautious optimistic.

If you believe the reports, they simply plan on using a lot of two tight end sets next year.

Baltimore is obviously crazy stacked but they were already one of the main contenders for next year. Colts should be in the race for sure but Houston should also take a step back so arguably 1 in 1 out. Who are all the other AFC contending teams that are getting better with Pro Bowl caliber players today? Cleveland getting a solid TE? I might have missed a few moves?

Hopkins = a 2nd round pick Rams = want to trade Gurley for a 2nd round pick Therefore, Gurley for a WR roughly the caliber of Hopkins AKA Michael Thomas. ...this is all sarcasm if it wasn't clear from my first reply

Based on today's history, I would think Gurley for Michael Thomas straight up maybe.

The Trepasso and Banner tweets aren't necessarily connected, but if they are, could be. The Trepasso one seems more likely to just be one of the guys that got tagged IMO.

There's some noise he might be headed to Seattle.

*puts on detective hat* Alright guys, let's piece this together. What we know so far: "a top player" - I'm going to say this is one of the highest paid guys at his position "not on the trade radar" From Allbright, it's probably a WR. Highest paid WRs: AJ Green - He's on the trade radar. Mike Evans TY Hilton - Doubt they bring in Rivers to throw to a group of all nobodies. Odell Beckham - Allbright said it's not him. Sammy Watkins - Not a top player and also on the trade radar. Jarvis Landry - Allbright said it's not him. Davante Adams - They aren't getting rid of Rodgers' only good weapon. Julio Jones Larry Fitzgerald - Not a top player and I doubt Arizona would do that to him now. Tyrell Williams - Not a top player. Michael Thomas - They wouldn't do this to Brees. Allen Robinson Stefon Diggs - On the trade radar already. Keenan Allen So we're left with, IMO, Evans, Julio, A-Rob, and Allen as possibilities. My guess: Keenan Allen or Julio Jones.

I cannot imagine this is what Banner/Glazer are referring to. He's not a top player and the compensation isn't more than the Hopkins deal. If you're a believer in the Julio trade idea though, Atlanta obviously could recoup some picks after this trade.

I can't help but wonder if this trade falls through. It just doesn't make any sense at all and O'Brien is going to get dragged for two days before it becomes official and I would imagine numerous teams are talking to him about offering more.
