Cobb to Texans. He will slide in seamlessly to take Nuk’s job

Based on the responses, I can’t tell if people thought I was serious or joking. I was 100% clearly joking. Nuk is amazing and BOB is a damn fool

Don't try to back-track now, buddy. We got you on record.

I was definitely joking. Randall Cobb is a perfectly fine, more than capable slot type WR, in no way is he a worthy replacement for NUK. but, better than what they've got on the roster as far as replacing some of what he can do I guess..

NFL Network's Mike Giardi reports the Patriots are "unlikely" to target free agent QB Jameis Winston.
Obviously Winston's tendency to rack up bone-headed interceptions wouldn't theoretically mesh very well with coach Bill Belichick


Honestly..did this even need to be said? Does anyone realistically think BB would even think about entertaining 39 turnovers from his starting QB?

Well, here's another messy backfield.

CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora reports the Broncos signed free agent RB Melvin Gordon.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports it's a two-year, $16 million deal with $13.5 million guaranteed. The Broncos could certainly use an additional weapon or two on offense for second-year QB Drew Lock, but addressing the RB position is curious considering Phillip Lindsay and Royce Freeman were largely fine in 2019. MGIII is certainly the better pass-down RB from the group, although Lindsay (4.9 YPC) and Freeman (3.9) have had similar-to-better success over their careers on a per-rush basis compared to Gordon (4). This is a complete mess as far as fantasy is concerned, as a committee backfield is incredibly likely unless we see an additional move take place.

Steelers signed TE Eric Ebron to two year, $12 million contract.

Ebron has received plenty of grief over the years after his underwhelming seasons with the Lions and penchant for dropping passes, but there's plenty of talent here. Still just 26 years old, Ebron is just one season removed from scoring 13 touchdowns with Andrew Luck under center in 2018. A new QB and various injuries sunk Ebron's chances at putting together a productive 2019 campaign. The drops are also a bit overstated. Overall, Travis Kelce, Jared Cook, Dawson Knox, Mark Andrews and Zach Ertz join Ebron as the only TEs with double-digit drops over the past two seasons. Not a bad group to be apart of. The key question surrounding Ebron's 2020 fantasy value is whether or not he'll receive a full-time role over Vance McDonald.

Great news for the Broncos- not so much for fantasy.

Fuzzy, what's your opinion of Lock?

 

[TREFF]

Fuzzy, what's your opinion of Lock?

Agreed, enquiring minds want to know

 

[Yellow Fuzzies]

Fuzzy, what's your opinion of Lock?

With his brief stint at the end of last year I am hopeful. I think he has the physical and mental tools but I am little worried about his throwing accuracy. he needs another target which I think the Broncos will try to get in the draft. The off-season additions to the defense and Melvin should help a lot.
Might be good enough to lead them to the playoffs this year.

That sucks one of the few first round centers that actually deserves their reputation.

Ouch...Frederick was an anchor

 

[SmokingMonkey]

if you are a fan of the team that signs Cam Newton to be starting QB this year, please just realize your team is tanking for Trevor Lawrence and don't get all mad at them when they suck next year

Looking at you Chargers and Patriots, LOL
