Warriorspikes51 Posted March 4 Posted March 4 THANK YOU TAMPA BAY!!! I had already prepared myself for him as a Chief Quote
BigDingus Posted March 4 Posted March 4 I look forward to signing him in 2 years, when he's assuredly still getting 1,000+ yards each season. Quote
beebe Posted March 4 Posted March 4 The Chiefs are always rumored to be targeting these marquee free agent/tradeable WRs, yet they never actually make a move for them. Have seen it with Antonio Brown, Julio Jones, Michael Thomas, Hollywood Brown, Jarvis Landry, Odell Beckham, Adam Thielen, TY Hilton, Odell Beckham again, Mike Evans, DeAndre Hopkins, DeAndre Hopkins again, Mike Evans again, on and on. I'm nearly convinced that agents float Chiefs "interest" in an attempt to scare other teams and drive up value/urgency. KC moved on from Tyreek after the 2021 season in part because they feel the need to save money at a premium position with Mahomes at QB. The luxury of having Mahomes is you can put together a budget WR corps and spend that money elsewhere; whereas teams like Miami (Tua), San Fran (Purdy), Detroit (Goff) and others likely have to surround their QB with great talent to be successful. Mahomes occupies 22.5% of KC's 2024 cap number, and their current projected top five receivers occupy less than 5 percent. Buffalo is currently spending closer to 14-15% for their projected top 4-5 receivers. The Dolphins are spending the same if not more (likely closer to 16-17%.) Cincinnati will be in a similar spot if they keep Higgins (and still must extend Chase.) The Chargers will likely maneuver, but their top two receivers currently count 25% against the cap. It's really hard to build out a great roster if you have a top-5 highest paid QB and expensive receivers. Quote

Charles Romes Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Crazy to think he came into the league with Sammy Watkins. Im happy for Evans for getting paid for past work. But the Bucs are insane. Talk about bidding against yourself. No one is paying close to 25 per for a 31 year old receiver. Quote

The Jokeman Posted March 4 Posted March 4 (edited) Jets couldn't trade for him even with Aaron Rodgers at QB and the Bucs with questions at QB with Baker unsigned. Gotta like that as a Bills fan. Edited March 4 by The Jokeman Quote
Warriorspikes51 Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Gabe Davis might get 20 million per on the open market from someone IMO. He's still only 24 which is crazy Quote
