Interesting observation, but it neglects to consider the players' perspective. Ngakoue has been trying to hit the open market, and decide his own fate, for years. Instead, he was tagged in Jax, then traded to Minn, then traded again to Baltimore. I'm not surprised he tested the market as soon as he could. Judon was going to be paid more than he was worth, and the Ravens (and Judon's camp) knew this. I think it is all more coincidental, than showing any trends that outside rush isn't important. It definitely is.

And they just traded to bring Trent Brown back

Alright, Pats got me with this one. Sonofa!

He was absolutely game-changing good, and regularly put us in great field position. But I do agree the money should be spent elsewhere.

No one wants to leave the team. As evidenced not only by all of these players returning as discounted rates, but also how John Brown left the facility pretty much kicking and screaming.

WOW, Magic Beane sprouts again. Dude is killin it. That's my GM!

Eh, maybe. But if there is one thing I've learned, it's don't count Beane out of anything. And I'd be shocked if the only idea he had for DE was "Watt or draft pick".

Based on Watt-Watch coming down to the Cardinals and Bills, folks should expect that we ABSOLUTELY go after DL help in free agency.

I dont give a *****, Andy. Agreed, and Beane screwed the pooch last year by not releasing Murphy before his guarantee kicked in. But I dont think now is the right time for Hughes. More so based on where the team is than the player. Unless they have a big time FA lined up. Not saying Beane wont do anything there, but imo, I let the man keep his money.

Hughes is set to make only $9.45M, and imo has earned the right to keep every penny of it. Leave him be.

Poor Joey B, but frankly, the less of this prediction that comes true, the better. Now bring back McKenzie!

WOW! MAGIC BEANES!

Is he expected to last to 30?

Interesting. But if last year proved anything it was that Brady was the one responsible for shoving our faces in the dirt for 20 years, not the Pats. Still hate him.

Yeah, that was a confusing tweet. Looks like the extension is 4 years (onto the 1 remaining), but Tampa can void it in 2 years, so he is locked into Tampa for at least 2 seasons, but could be 5.

Free Agency doesnt start for 5 more days, so neither. Unless you are talking about guys who are already home on the couch.

My wife's boyfriend LOVES Tom Brady, so I do too!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA $14M! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA And here I was worried theyd use all that cap space to get a lot better.

It doesnt have to. There. Do you feel better now?

No, he will not take you on a date.

Yeah, I'm riding Edmunds out as long as I can to see what he can grow into. We'll see where he is at in 2023.

I'd still trigger the 5th year option on Edmunds. It's only $12M in 2022 when the cap will be higher. He has a lot to prove, imo, but I'm not ready to give up on the dude. He is the same age as Epenesa. I know it's cliche at this point, but I do want to see if he can take another step still.

Klein costs us $6M this year, Milano $7M. That's still less than some thought Milano would command in the market, and we get TWO LBs who can start if one gets injured. I like it.

That post had nothing to do with you. Stop making this about you.
