Why do these vet minimum guys with a fair amount of NFL playing time keep signing here? Beane basically returned his entire 53 man roster that went 13-3. There’s gotta be other teams where they’d have a better shot at making the roster.

Not that simple. $10m of the $17m is guaranteed. My guess is In order to find a trade partner Carolina will have to pay at least half of the $10m and Bridgewater will have to forego most of the $7m that’s not guaranteed. More likely scenario is Carolina doesn’t find any takers and has to eat the $10m. Then Bridgewater signs for $3-4m in Houston where he has chance to start.

I’ll contribute because I still think this could happen. Took Howie 3 weeks to trade Wentz when all the reports said trade was imminent.

Can’t see anybody trading for him in order to pay him $17m this year.

I’m not a huge fan of Edmunds, but I do realize the guy would have a ton of value in a trade. I hate the argument about how young he is but there’s still some truth in it. You could make an argument that Edmunds would be the highest rated defender in this draft. If Jerruh wants to give us pick 10 straight up for Edmunds, I’d consider it if Pitts were available but not if I have to give Dallas something back.

New England will pay. Jimmy G will get them to 10 wins but you’re never winning a super bowl with him. San Fran’s D in 2019 was sick. If Jimmy was above average, they probably win game. But Belichik and Kraft are desperate for relevancy. They’ll give up their 1st rounder. They don’t have the time or patience to develop a rookie QB.

If you assume these guys’ agents aren’t morons, I can’t see them signing this early in free agency before the draft if they don’t think they have a reasonably good shot to make the final 53. Beane is up to 70 signed players and very few are what would be considered camp bodies. Almost all 70 guys have had significant playing time in the NFL. Good luck making this team as a rookie if you aren’t drafted in the first 3 rounds.

Having a problem with Milano is like complaining your girlfriend is a 9 not a 10. Dude is good. He’s not big enough to take away the best Tight Ends but he makes plays all over the field otherwise.

The biggest red flag is that Sports Illustrated randomly reached out to a Houston-based massage therapist and she had a similar existence with Watson. That’s crazy.

Impressive athlete at that size and with cover skills.

I got no problems with picking an Offensive Lineman at pick 30. The OL was as big a problem as the defense against KC. I’m glad Beane brought back last years OL but Morse, Feliciano, and Williams are basically on 1 year deals so there’s definitely room to bring in an upgrade.

Impressive. That boy made himself some money today.

The LB signings are interesting. Big Nickel didn’t seem to be a thing until recently. Maybe these quick smallish LB’s would’ve been drafted higher or at all when they came out if teams scouted for the big nickel position back then. Perhaps Beane is trying to fill the big nickel this way instead of a high draft pick.

Bills gotta find a way to get one of these Bills gotta find a way to get one of these fast LB’s who can cover and bring the wood. Too many sub 6 foot sub 200 pound DB’s. Usually 5 of those guys on the field at all times for this defense.

Gotta root for a guy as persistent as him. Dude clearly loves football when you look at how long it took him to stick on a roster.

Agreed, but now you also gotta question the guys motives for demanding a trade. I’m sure he’s known these lawsuits were coming. Did he think he could run away from his legal troubles to a new town?

Beane couldn’t match Nsekhe’s one year $1.75m contract with cowboys? I hope Hart is making less.

Didn’t realize Fields is that big. 6’3” 227lbs and runs a 4.4. Creative OC’s like Daboll can find ways to win with an athlete like that until Fields develops as a passer.

Well he clearly utilized way more than 20 if Sports illustrated randomly reached out to a female masseuse in Houston area to get her thoughts on the allegations and she happened to be victimized too. Watson seems like a really weird dude. I’m not sure I believe he forced one of them to perform oral sex, but impossible not to think the dude is a major pervert.

Working out with Phillips today did no favors for Rousseau. Phillips is a special athlete and made Rousseau look like Lurch.

I’d love to get JOK but Zaven Collins wouldn’t be a bad consolation prize. Collins is an impressive player who could solve our defending the Tight End problems. Big LB who can do it all. Covers good enough and allows you to play bigger in the back 7.

Yeah. He’s a guy you’d have to trade up from 30 to get. He’s what you’d create in a lab for an edge rusher. Speed, power, size, ability to bend and tremendous overall athlete. If there were no injury/concussion issues, he’d be top 10 pick.

Wow. I switch my pick from JOK to Phillips. He has Bruce-like bend and body control. If he can run that fast, he’s got the talent to be special.

I hope not. You’d probably have to be targeting a 2nd round guy on your board to be reasonably sure you’d get him at 30. I bet Beane has 3-4 guys he’d trade up for if they fall to a certain draft position, a couple he’d be happy with at 30 and then a trade down scenario if the he doesn’t trade up or like who’s available at 30.
