Fantasy Football News and Rumors

Who is going to throw Anderson the ball? @Bandit your one that has been crossing your fingers on Anderson. What you think?

 

[TREFF]

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

At least in Chargers case, they're sitting pretty with a shot at either Herbert or Tua this year..so maybe they'd be tanking for the top OL?? LOL

for sure - I haven't understood the constant linking of FA QBs to the Chargers, other than the fact they lost Rivers. But everyone assumes that they're drafting one of the top 3 QBs (let's be real, #2 or #3, as Cincy has Burrows locked up).

Seems like a perfect fit for a rookie QB to learn the ropes behind a solid defense, great receiving options in Allen/MikeW/Henry/Ekeler....one of the rare instances I support putting a rookie QB in immediately.

I don't understand how that makes sense for either side. DJ Moore and McCaffery are going to be the focal points of that offense and Bridgewater isn't exactly known for throwing the ball deep and even if he was they have Curtis Samuel for that. I don't understand why Carolina would pony up that much money for him when it just isn't a need at all. It reminds me of the deal the Chiefs gave Sammy Watkins a few years ago that just made no sense to anybody.

I'm almost thinking they put Moore or Samuel on the block now - or during the season, so they don't have to pay either of them.
But agree completely - very weird signing. What are they doing in Carolina?!?!

Oh, please let them put Samuel on the block. Please!

Yeah, I know. I could understand Foles, or Bridge, or Dalton..but they already have that with Thai Stick..so..yeah, I don't get the rumors, and if they bear fruit, I'm really stunned

vikings seem like a perfect landing spot for a deep threat, wonder who they get to play oppo Thelien this year. Gave Kirk too much money to not try to do everything to win now

A dude likke Samuel could fit damned near any team, and virtually any team would be a better fit than Carolina..lol. You stick him on virtually any pass first type off offense, especially those that focus on short quick passes to playmakers..wow. Dude can be a deep threat, but he's so great in the open after the catch. I mean, if he was in KC, I'd dump all my Hardman stock in a heartbeat

Cousin cap hit is 21 million, not that severe as QBs go.

I get that, hell, Teddy freakin' Bridgewater got 63 mil for 3 years. That said, I can't stand Captain Kirk unless he finally proves me wrong. Maybe it's the offensive play calling. I think things will be decided this year, especially for the fact that they paid Kirk and let Everson Griffen walk because they didn't have the money.

I dislike Rick Spielman very much.

 

[TREFF]

@SmokingMonkey , your boy Perriman signed...with the Jets...ughh. Barring a big draft class, should be a free line to targets at least

Weird, cuz I love Rick Spielman.

Actually like that landing spot. Darnold isn't the worst, no other deep threats on the roster, Bell and crowder make the defense pay attention to the short game

That defense was gutted this offseason

 

[SmokingMonkey]

latest blurb from Arians is that they'll look to add a pass catching RB to compliment RoJo

anybody worth taking notice on the FA front?
Really can't think of any that are left that would be useful for fantasy, but we all know TB12 will pepper a RB if that's what the defense is giving....I'd imagine if Godwin/Evans are healthy, that's exactly what a defense will be giving them in most games.

pick 3.76 or 4.117, you've been put on notice!

Theres Riddick, Chris Thompson and Dion Lewis all hanging around

Lewis signed with Giants already

Riddick/Thompson....so yeah, nothing exciting there. I guess I'd put Thompson over Riddick if I had to rank them, but man they both have a lot of injury baggage they are carrying around

Must've missed that one, damnit.

Must've missed that one, damnit.

Theres a few that went under the radar... like Randall Cobb signing for decent money with Houston.
