Hs nowhere near worth the #1 pick. When you add needed to resign him he's maybe worth #12. But let's be honest, Patriots backups bust rate doesn't help their trade leverage. I'd rather use #12 on a 5 year rookie deal for Watson than trade it for Jimmy.

Oh good god no, he's not worth the #1. But he's a potential franchise guy who has already completed the dreaded first couple years getting up to speed in the NFL and learning how to play at this level. Plus, Mike freaking Glennon commanded a $15 million salary...

Pats don't want to deal him, so hey, if the Browns want him, they'll have to pay out the arse. They'll be able to franchise him for two years if they can't work out a long-term deal immediately, and they'll fast-forward the Browns' trip to being a potentially good team.

Or they can start Brock Lobster for a year while hoping one of the highly suspicious top QB prospects this year can turn into a good NFL starter.

The best part of this is homeboy doesn't have an agent. He just made the Chargers make him the highest paid table in the NFL and he's not good at all.

The contracts going out to OTs now are the reason why I was shocked the Rams got Whitworth at a relatively affordable rate.

Nobody will want to work for Snyder even with reports the GM did it to himself.

I mean, they basically just paid $20 million worth of their $100 million in cap space for a future 2nd rounder. That's a great move by Cleveland, I think.

If they release him as expected, it's salary they won't have to pay, but counts against the cap. This means $20M less in actual cash salary to pay. Honestly, the NFLPA should be furious that a team is trying so hard to circumvent the league minimum.

For the price C Tretter got, I'd have thought we'd be in play at least.

PLEASE let Tru get traded soon. I mean he's gonna.

Also, Cooks is going to NE, iirc. Not sure how they swung that...

Just a hunch, but i'm guessing a TruJo to Cleveland trade is being held up by a potential Garopolo trade. That we may have to settle for something less from another team if Cleveland goes the QB route. jmo

They're not getting Jimmy... New England basically said "We don't want to trade him... but if you really want him... We want the #1 draft pick" ... which LOL, isn't going to happen.

Much like our 1st round tender for Easley.

Well, I hope Cleveland is really done trying to put together a package for Garopolo, I thought they were about to be fleeced. Maybe tomorrow will be our day with Tru.
