NFL (since 2016)

Post crystal falace »

"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."

"Looks like the Niners have found a couple of Gems for their secondary in the draft, just what we needed. Winters at MLB is getting some love too. The D should be improved this year. On offense the RB position is stacked with yet another undrafted free agent turning heads, need Trent Williams back in the fold asap though. At the end of the day I think Aiyuk will sign with the Niners again, just not for the money he is asking. 28 mill a year sounds like a good compromise. Looking forward to tonight's game. On a positive note my youngest will be playing at SoFI stadium on October 4th against Long Beach Poly high school, something to look forward to and remember. Can't wait for football season to start."

"Had a whiz around some of the commentary on the QB that the Jets picked up in the 5th Round, Jordan Travis. I hadn't realised he was the Florida starter who broke his leg last season. This kid has some serious talent. But got his injury, he would probably have been a 3rd round pick most years. Quick, mobile, decent arm, decent mechanics etc. Looks a bit Russell Wilson (early version). You never know how players respond to injury, but this could be a real bargain. He can sit for a year or two and learn from one of the best ever, Rodgers, and then - if he's good enough - slot in. If he isn't good enough, well, it's no big loss on a 5th round pick. Joe Douglas on the money once again."

"Couple of decent low-round picks for the Jets to finish off the draft: Allen (RB) is a powerful runner who will be effective in short yardage situations. He can also block, so gives options in two-back line-ups. Stiggers is a solid defensive back. Already played in Canada's league (not as strong obviously), and is a pro already. So he's used to the training, discipline and grind. It'll be a step up for him, but he's already halfway up that step. We also took a project QB (Travis). Don't know a lot about him, but we took him in the 5th round - so it's hardly a risk. You never can tell, but that looks like a solid, unspectacular draft for the Jets. It's a Joe Douglas draft, which was needed. Our issue is always what happens when college kids with talent meet our coaches! Saleh knows his defence. But is our backroom staff good enough (particularly on offense)?"

A safety and CB. Solid pick's for holes that needed to be filled. Rome wasn't built in a day. And Big Blue certainly wasn't.! GO GMEN.

"great day two. picked up a beast DT projected to go top twenty but fell because of a foot surgery., the best spot received in the draft and one of michigan's captains, a complete tight end, finally a big strong LT and ending up taking Christian Mccaffrey's brother who's still improving at WR"

"Jets took a decent, versatile receiver (Corley) with the opening pick of round 3. Quite happy with that. He can play slot and outside. Just needs a good offense coach (big challenge for us!). Two decent picks so far, in what was always likely to be a quieter pre-season than last year. Some teams made really strong second and third round selections. Both rounds were stacked with ""decent""ù talent because so many sides overspent on Rnd1. Unsurprisingly, no QBs taken on day 2 after six first rounders. It makes no sense at all: some of those early QBs are more realistically second and third rounders - and some teams are going to get lumped with big wage deals for bang average talent. The QB premium is getting bonkers. It's the most important role, so I get why it happens. But the gap between hope and reality is nuts right now."

"True, Shorty. Although Penix might have a worse injury record. I'm not sure he played a full college season through his career. The kid clearly has talent, though. Anyway, it's Atlanta's problem - and thankfully not ours! Your (Giants) WR is a good pick. I say that through gritted teeth!"

Maybe Atlanta know Cousins body might not hold up over the contract.? It's a real head starcher for anyone outside the room. But GM's live and die on the hill of their QB choices. GO GMEN.

"Let's be honest, Atlanta will have known there was a decent chance they'd take a QB with #8 pick back when they signed Cousins for $180m. Maybe they wanted Alt (OT) or somebody more, but he was off the board? But they would have known a QB was an option for the top-ten pick - you always have back up plans. So they should have told Cousins before he signed. And then, even if they did not, they could have made one phone call to him at any time before the draft and explained an already-embarrassing situation. But, according to Cousins, did not even do that until they were on the board. It is mental."

"Totally agree. Penix looks decent. But, if what Cousins is saying is true - and the franchise didn't tell him - then that is astronomically bad. It's not Penix's fault. But Cousins has every right to be furious with Atlanta. You have to manage players, and not always manage decisions. There will be at least some bad blood in the dressing room and at the training ground now (and not necessarily between the two QBs: Cousins is generally pretty grounded) - from day one. It's almost Jets-like in its atrociousness!"

"SB, just had a look at Cousins contract. The earliest they can move him where it doesn't cost a fortune is 2027, where the cap hit will be $12.5m. That means Penix is possibly sitting for three years, madness"
