NFL (since 2016)

"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."

[Holstebro Hammer]

"Yeah, he has been one of the names mentioned. Shame about Reed he was great once upon a time. Trent can do one as far as I'm concerned I hope we make him sit for another year. But if we can get a third plus whatever trade him. Haskins deserves a chance this year. While I don't think he is going to be great I do think he deserves the chance to succeed."

[Far Cough]

Stefon Diggs has gone to Buffalo for some draft picks Hmmmmmmmmm

[Takashi Miike]

"holstebro, I'm not overly keen on him but he could improve, so I wouldn't be surprised if they approach njoku. I'd be happy going with hentjes, sprinkle and target adam trautman in the draft"

[Holstebro Hammer]

"With you on Fuller Takashi, loved him the first time round and looking forward to this year. Shame we didn't get the Tight End who ended up at Cleveland but nevermind. Incredible that Flowers got paid so much by Miami. Glad we didn't get Amari Cooper as well on that price. Although we do need an experienced WR who can stay healthy. Chase Young is a must"

"Big call by Brady to leave the Patsies. Every fan of other AFC East teams just breathed one of the biggest relief sighs of all time. But it was only half a sigh - Belichick is staying on, and it looks like he's in full rebuild mode. So perhaps he's staying on for a while? Jets, Fish and Bills fans were all hoping they'd wander off into the sunset together. Best coach-QB pairing of all time, bar absolutely none. And I say that as a hardened Jet who would happily have crashed a green and white bus into them both (metaphorically). Be interesting to see how Bill goes without Brady and vice-versa. Belichick would not have allowed this move unless he already had a replacement for Brady in mind. He has a target, no question."

The mighty FINS been busy today I see...some interesting additions.

[Takashi Miike]

"glad we didn't give flowers $10m a year, and instead bring home fuller on that same figure. just need to move on trent williams for at least a 3rd rounder and make sure we take young at two"

[crystal falace]

"Teddy Bridgewater signing with the panthers, they're looking for a trade for Cam newton now. So many new faces at QB next year! Newton to the patriots?"

[crystal falace]

"Be interesting to see what offese they run assuming he goes to Tampa, Arians' offence is very different to anything Brady has done since 2007"

[ironsofcanada]

"RB They won 7 games last year, something else is going to have to come with Brady to put them in the picture, in my opinion. He could go there for the money, Cameron Jordan, Sheldon Rankins and Marcus Davenport would welcome him with open arms."

[zebthecat]

"RBshorty 3:18 Tue Mar 17 Take out the interceptions and completion percentage (yes, I know...) and Jameis Winston's stats from last year are pretty bloody good so it i fair to say that there nothing wrong with the receivers at the Bucs."

[RBshorty]

"The Buc's ain't shabby in the WR department. And Bruce Arians has a history for getting the best out of older QB,s."

[ironsofcanada]

"Be interesting to see if he wants money or to be with a competitor. I still can't see Tampa Bay being the latter. Or I hope not to see that, at least."

[Far Cough]

Yeah but didn't he take a salary pay cut to help NE with the salary cap? I'm guessing he'll look for someone fairly competitive who will pay him top whack?

[RBshorty]

I would imagine a bit of everything. Get better pay. Go to a team that challenge for the next couple of seasons.(Sorry Crystal) Butting heads with Emperor Belichick must grow tiring after 20 years.?

[crystal falace]

"Bills win win the AFC east this year i think they can be a very solid team if Allen can not fuck them over completely. Unless the Pats are going after another veteran QB then resigning some of their veterans they already have makes little sense. Not sure Brady suits the Bucs and Bruce Arians philosophy of deep passing, he hasnt had a good deep ball for a number of years. Might sound weird but id love Jamies winston in New England, think Bellichik and Mcdaniels could really get the best out of him."

[Far Cough]

Why is he leaving? Salary cap reasons?

[RBshorty]

Brady leaving New England. Buc's favourite to land him. Pats will still win the AFC East. The rest still seem to be a couple of steps behind

[crystal falace]

"Still an awful lot of holes on the dolphins dont get carried away just yet! Still going to lack a pass rush and they were by a huge margin the worst Oline in the league last year, added a few nice pieces on defence though and Flores seems like a really good coach who runs a very similar scheme to the Patriots. Oh and still the small matter of a QB needed, probably going to trade a number of picks to move up and draft Tua who is full of potential but just coming off an injury that people thought might end his career, good luck chucking him in behind that Oline."

[zebthecat]

My the 'fins have been busy. Given all the draft picks they have it could be a very interesting season for them. Draft a top RB and they are set.

[ironsofcanada]

crystal falace 10:30 Mon Mar 16 Brees will probably be less.

[crystal falace]

"The buckner trade is a goood one for the niners, they were only going to keep one of him and Armstead and to get the 13th overall pick in the draft is massive. The Hopkins trade is absolutely absurd taking a running back who the Cardinals may well have cut after tagging Drake and a 2nd round pick for arguably the best receiver in football is ridiculous especially when you see what the Bills gave up for an inferior receiver, thats why you shouldnt have your coach and GM be the same person unless they're really truly great. but the cardinals are going to be very exciting next season, that NFC west race is going to be alot of fun could see any of them winning it or any of them coming last. Speaking of that receiver, the Bills gave up a 1st, 4th, 5th and 6th round pick for Steffon Diggs, they're going all in with Josh Allen which may or may not work but they have a very good receiving core around him now. In other news the Browns secured the best tight end and best Offensive lineman on the market, they now have Beckham, Landry, Chubb, Hooper, Njoku with an improved line so no excuses now for Baker Mayfield. The coboys made Amari cooper the highest paid receiver in history, they now have almost a 3rd of their cap tied up into Dak, Cooper and Zeke so see what sort of team they can actually build around that, but Jerry Jones doesnt let stars leave the building. Thats all from the first few hours of the tampering period and free agency hasnt even started yet officially so it should be a fun week or so, just nice to have some sort of sport to focus on at the moment."

[Hermit Road]

I only just realised that Deandre Hopkins had left the Texans. That seems like a mental trade. The geezer is phenomenal

[Nutsin]

Buckner gone to colts for 13th pick in the draft....ouch!

[crystal falace]

"Also Ryan Tannehill has just signed a deal worth almost £30M per season, really does pay well to be an average starting QB"
