Eagles save $5m in cap space cutting Ertz. They avoid paying his $8.5m salary which is non-guaranteed but then incur an extra $3.5m in future year bonus amortization. I can’t see Beane giving up a 4th without Philly picking up at least half of Ertz’s $8.5m salary. That means Philly would need to make other moves to get under the cap.

Why would Philly pay any of Ertz’s salary? They only have $2m in cap space. And I can’t see Beane giving up a 4th or 5th rounder for a couple million in cash and salary cap room.

His re-structured contract is basically untradable for the Bears. $38m in dead cap... even spread over 2 years is insane. Acquiring team would only have $2m cap hit for Mack in 2021. Not happening.

I don’t know. At first I thought it was the son of the guy who posted the video. He’s wearing baggy sweat Pants and a big sweatshirt and still looks little.

I’d be surprised if he weighs more than 250lbs right now. He can’t play at that weight. Probably why he hasn’t been in Buffalo.

He was good last year for Patriots before he got injured. Better than anything we had in the backfield, but a 30 year old RB coming off knee surgery isn’t the most wise signing.

But his entire 2021 salary is guaranteed and Bills are already up against cap in 2021. It’s actually better for Bills to pay him to stay home than to cut him.

Beane has to get one of the CB’s out there right? Nelson or Sherman signing imminent would be my guess.

A 5 month advance (mid point of season is around Halloween) on $11.7m is probably worth around $250k to Diggs if you assume banks would charge around 5% per year to lend to a guy who’s got significant assets.

I take this back. His 2021 salary was fully guaranteed on March 21. This restructure is almost all Diggs helping the team out. Only benefit to Diggs is he gets is his 2021 salary right now instead of weekly checks during the season.

I don’t believe any of his 2021 salary was guaranteed. So this definitely is something Diggs wouldn’t have said no to.

Lonnie Johnson getting completely blown up on the fake punt has to get some kind of honorable mention. Guess we need to define worst play, but this was up there with the dumbest.

Nothing is ‘voluntary’ that comes with expectations that you either show up or you’re a slacker. This is why players and NFLPA fight to get rid of ‘voluntary’ workouts.

I mean if I were McBeane I’d be PO’d if Star hasn’t been in the building since opting out. It’s the guy’s job and he gets paid handsomely. But I’m just a fan. I’m sure McBeane is on top of it.

Not sure why they’d ever put in Tebow over Lawrence. Lawrence is more than capable of running RPO’s. Jags might as well invite Kaepernick to training camp too. Apparently Meyer enjoys the circus.

This is about all you need to know in regards to Tebow being signed.

I have to admit, this guy is kinda awesome. NFL needs more characters. It’s 99% not gonna end well with this guy coaching, but at least it’ll be entertaining.

He’s got a right to say whatever he wants but no thanks when it comes to defending him. He deserves whatever shade is being sent his way. Shut up and dribble, right?

Doubt he’s gonna take less than $6-7m per year. And a more desperate team will probably give him a multi year deal with $10m+ in guarantees. Can’t see Beane going there. He would’ve tried harder to get a CB in draft.

Beane needs to trade for one of Broncos CB’s.

This is the only logical thing that could’ve happened. There’s probably not enough evidence to file criminal charges but the longer this dragged out, the worse all parties involved would’ve been. The plaintiffs wouldn’t get nearly as much money if he’s not able to play football. Watson can now continue his career, start the long process of re-habilitating his reputation, apologize to the plaintiffs and also probably write them each 7 figure checks.

The Bills missed tackle rate on QB pressures stat passes the eye test. Rousseau could be perfect compliment to Hughes and Oliver. They are good at getting the initial pressure. Rousseau is good at getting the QB on the ground.

I’m sure the same people up in arms over forcing players to get the vaccine were the same people defending Kaepernick’s right to kneel during national anthem.

If we got Ojemudia in return, we’d be helping each other out as well as providing both players with better path to playing time.
