Add Mixon to the pile of FA RBs looking for a home, the rumors were true, Cincy is cutting him

Would be funny if he went to CLE but I doubt he wants to be the backup when Chubb is healthy

 

[Shanemansj13]

Please Jerry lure Henry to Dallas. I don’t want to see him in Baltimore

4+ mill a year, not shabby given his entire career thus far. Not enough to say, yes, they are planning on him being THE guy though. If the depth chart stays as is, I would expect a pretty fair split between him and Chase Brown. But that offense is going through Burrows and Chase regardless

Aaron Jones to Minny is official

Aafon Jones to Minny is official

As official as it can be until tomorrow

Denver brass gotta be scrambling now. All the buzz was about Darnold or Minshew. Only guy left that was being whispered is Brissett.

Is laugh my ass off if the trade for Feilds

Jameis Winston as a bridge QB maybe.

Jameis Winston as a bridge QB maybe.

Maybe, but they'd have to trade for him, and they have few assets worth trading. Not to mention more holes than they could possibly hope to fill with the picks/cap space they do have.
My assumption, based off rumblings I've heard, would be that if they traded, it'd would be for someone they assume to be legit answer, not a bridge.

Wonder what the cost would be for Winston? A 3rd? Less? More?

Nevermind, I misunderstood his contract situation

Flacco, Winston

 

[TREFF]

Well Flacco likely has a bad taste in his mouth from Denver.

And Winston? he had one of his best "half seasons" under Peyton in NO (7 games, 14 TD's, 3 picks,)..but would he want to go there again? Did he actually enjoy that time? Or would he be like, 'F that guy'? If he truly wants to start games, be anointed as the starter..its Denver or Vegas at this point. Everyone else either has their guy, their bridge guy, or will be drafting in the top 5-6 and taking the guy that'll most likely start week 1.

Just going through the list of potential free agents not already mentioned-
Bridgewater, been there done that
Drew Lock, been there drafted that.
Trevor Semian, same
man Denver has ran the gauntlet at QB...lol

Tannyhill, Wentz, Mariota??

 

[TREFF]

Morning local yocals out of Denver, after yesterdays' movement and the Darnold to Minn. news, project Fields trade value as a 5th round pick this morning. Just no market to keep the price high, when everyone knows the alternative is the Bears releasing him, or carrying his contract as the #2, and being a constant pain in the ass for Caleb Williams to think about- and he's soft already.

 

[TREFF]

Noteworthy (imho) Free agent RB's still out there -
D. Henry
Ekeler
A.J. Dillon
A. Jones
D. Harris
R. Penny
D. Foreman


RB needy teams (again, IMHO)
Dallas
TB
Houston
Balt
CIncy
Giants
VIkes
Carolina
Miami will continue to be on this list until they get someone other than a scat back to play the position- dont care how good Achane and Mostert looked

could still use a little hlep -
LAC
ARZ
Vegas

RB needy teams (again, IMHO)
Dallas - literally an empty depth chart of nobodies
TB - White sucks, I don't care how many fantasy points he got
Houston - Peirce? they've got a possible tiger by the tail with that offense, they need to strike now Peirce doens't get it done.
Balt - Michael Keaton (AKA Batman) and Justice Hill, really?
Carolina - yeah but why bother?


could still use a little help -
Vegas - Zuess was nice, Ameer is there, but I'd prefer a 3rd down back who isn't on the wrong side of his career
ARZ - Honestly, how much does James Conner have left, and is M. Carter an NFL back or not?
LAC- Gus signed, great, they've got a guy who will get 3 yards when you need two, and 3 yards when you need 4, especially without the threat of Lamaar keeping it around the corner. they need a better option between the 20's

I don't know why the Bears thought it would be smart to wait to move Fields like his value would go up before the draft-idiots.
These are the kinds of things that should be simple that makes you think they will either fuck up this pick or Caleb will just end up like Fields or the other Chicago QB's...I think the Caleb concerns about his attitude are overblown but I also think they are overhyping him a bit. Talented without a doubt but can he really put this team on his back and carry them. I question his leadership. My opinion matters as much as the next guy though so what do I know

I think Winston makes a ton of sense. Like Darnell Mooney joining Matt Nagy on the Chiefs. Winston isn't super old so you can plausibly go into a season with him without screaming 'we need to draft a QB' because Denver isnt getting a top 3 QB in the draft.

Mariota to Commanders

Mariota to Commanders

yet another option chooses to be a backup for someone else over being the assumed starter in Denver
