West Ham Online

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

"yes, five spots. I just hope we don't move back again, though I wouldn't rule it out"

I know absolutely nothing about Charles Cross other than that I will be calling him Chris

"Saints were at 16 i think? According to that trade chart they all use the saints actually got the slightly better ""value"" but if you get your giy you still want at 16 and hit on one of the other picks then yeah its a no brainer"

"crystal, that's an amazing trade we've done. move back two slots and get a 2nd & 3rd"

There's olave at 11! Ffs

Both new york teams having an absolutely outstanding draft so far

I did think the QBs would slide as none of them seem actually worthy of a high pick. Normally some team will reach for one but doesnt look like it so far. They all seem very meh. First one kff the board probably lewis to pittsburgh?

"none of the QBs going is a surprise, I was convinced Willis was set for Detroit or Carolina. Also, no WRs yet though that may change with Wilson to the Giants"

I asked both paddypower and skybet for odds on olave to the commanders and they wouldnt give me any. They have odds for all the top 10 picks but wouldnt give me 11! Breece hall to the bills at 25 i also asked for with no success so i'll be very annoyed if either of them are correct

"I hope we draft Kyle Hamilton, I think we'll draft Chris Olave"

Jordan davis to go number 9 to the seahawks 14/1 on paddypower.

Nutsin 12:13 Thu Apr 28 As someone who had both Deebo and Elijah Mitchell in his fantasy team that is exactly it. Very much doubt he will get so many run plays in the future. He does merit getting paid for what he can do as a WR though. One look at how much others have got indicates that. He is not Tyreek Hill elite but not far off.

"Word is that Deebo just wanted to get paid. He seems to have been using his versatility as a bargaining chip - trying to drive up his price - while also seeking some reassurances about not being used quite so much as an RB. Tough one, that. The 49ers won't want to lose a very fine player. But if he's trying to get effectively two salaries - WR and RB - while arguing not to be used so much as RB, then I can understand the 49ers' reticence. On his side of the argument, his workload was very high for a guy still on a rookie contract. He's basically the Martin Peters of the NFL! When it comes to it, though, I just think the 49ers should pay the guy. He's more important to them than some of them on very high salaries."

Our QB had an injured thumb and shoulder* fucking fat fingers

"Deebo was used as a RB last year so much because we had injuries at RB and our WB had an injured thumb and shoulder. With a healthy stable of RB's and a healthy QB who can throw the ball down field with no pain Deebo will be used more as a WR""¶. That's an easy fix and an easy convo to have between Kyle and Deebo""¶""¶. Not sure that is the problem for him to sign a new contract."

"That's interesting Miike, I've just been following paper and twitter articles, not seen too much footage. Gardner and increasingly Stingly have been mentioned a lot as possible first rounders for Seattle. For the QB, talk of Matt Corral and a couple of mentions of Howell if available in 2nd round, so good to see your positive rating. Unless Pete Carroll has a rush of blood and tries to trade up for Malik Willis or trades down ""¶ hard to predict."

*us taking Howell*

"I'd have been happy with is a taking Howell, but obviously they're all in on Wants now"

"OGS, I've watched a lot of footage on numerous channels/sites and they mostly have you taking gardner or stingley. I think Sam Howell would be a great fit for you, if he's still there in the second. I watched a lot of him in the past two years and he has a great arm, and after losing most of his weapons last year added a scrambling side to his play which carroll would love"

Hawks have a decent round one pick for a change: #9. So many ways to blow this. Guess if Sauce Gardner or similar is still on the board and we can fill some gaps with #40 and #41* we might just have a chance of not being the whipping boys of the NFC West as predicted this year. *QB might happen in round 2?

"It's not all about money. He doesn't see a long career in the nfl being used on a regular basis as a running back. It's a world of difference being tackled by defensive backs, to colliding with 250lb linebackers or even bigger linemen game after game Not sure what Rivera's doing. He lets two of our DTs (ioaniddis & Settle) walk, and now there's talk he won't be extending a third (Payne) and could possibly trade him. Only we could have confined fuckwit mismanagement, year after year. He only has six picks this week, but you can be sure he'll find a way of fucking it up"

G Men with picks 5&7. Needs all over the shop. But OL and edge rusher will take president. And if any trades happen it will be for picks next year. Go G Men.

We're still stuck with Jimmy G on our books taking a big chunk of our salary cap. Surely someone must want him?

"Deebo is still on his rookie contract, which means if he sits out then he loses a year of income but San Fran still keeps the year of contract, so it will roll over into the following year""¶.. Add to that the Franchise tag for 2 additional years you will realize that Deebo has no leverage. Now Deebo could feign injury but that would hurt his stock and cost him millions in his new contract""¶.. If the Niners decide to trade him he will be traded to whoever offers the best deal, Deebo has no leverage and therefor no say on where he goes. If Niners trade him it will be to an AFC team. Personally I think it's all about money and Deebo will get paid by the Niners. If he is traded it will happen before the first half of tomorrows first round draft."

"Some talk of the Jets trading up to take their first pick, but I think it's all the usual pre-draft bullshit and bravado. They'll sit at #4 and #10 and take two of the dozen or so premium names - whoever is left on the board at that stage. Given how many positions we desperately need to fill, I can't see us trading up above #4 and giving picks away just to jump a place or two. The only trade I could envsage is if they feel they want to go after Deebo Samuel and get a decent ask from the 49ers. But I'm not expecting that. Samuel will get offers from sides in much better shape than us."
