2022 NFL Discussion Thread

The biggest loser in the Tom Brady non-retirement is whoever bought his "last TD pass" ball for $518,000.  Less than 24 hours after the sale, the ball has to be worth probably less than $20k?  The only hope this guy has now is that Brady blows out a knee prior to throwing a TD pass this year.

Paging Jeff Gilloly.

Jeff Gilloly call on line one.

Lucas Patrick to the Bears, which is the first FA loss that made me cringe.

[PeaveyFury]

Titans have reportedly released Julio Jones.

[nate82]

Von Miller to the Bills

I guess when you have a QB on his rookie deal you have a lot of cap room to make these kind of deals.

MNF Just got worse

Doesn't 3/60 seem cheap for Chris Godwin?

well you have to consider that he tore his ACL at the end of last season, so there is risk by the bucs that 2022 could be a lost season or one that he performs below norms during.

Apparently Z didn’t sign with the Ravens and is still a free agent according to Rappaport.

[nate82]

Allen Robinson to the Rams

 

[PeaveyFury]

St. Brown to Chicago. The Getsy connection is going to be strong this offseason, apparently.

Fletcher Cox released by Philly. Seems like a good year for d-line help if they can fit someone in with the cap.

Watson to Cleveland for real this time.

 

[Samurai Bucky]

JuJu to Kansas City (should have posted this here instead of in the Davante Adams thread...)

That is crazy....  Is this the first fully guaranteed deal in the NFL?  If it isn't it has to be a long time since the last one was given out.  I wonder if Rodgers is going to get mad now and request a new deal?  <<<<SARCASM no more blue sarcasm font makes me sad.

[SeaBass]

Browns have a competent QB. What is life?

Also, remember when the AFC was weak? Not so much anymore.

Damn, I swear i had just seen something about the browns being out of the running for watson? Cousins deal from the vikes was 100% guaranteed.  Also, I was planning on making a joke about Rodgers demanding a new contract as well.

They were out of the running as of yesterday afternoon. Then Mayfield demanded a trade and my belief is the Browns upped their offer to get the Watson deal done because they were going to be in a world of hurt without a QB otherwise.

Draft pick details.

 

[Fear The Chorizo]

Kind of sickening to know that Watson's contract is scheduled to have a base salary of $1M - that means if he gets suspended, the withheld salary comes from that amount.

What's the over/under on percentage of Watson's signing bonus that goes to Rusty Hardin and settlement for the 22 civil suits brought against him?

Houston gets railed on alot for being a disfunctional organization - but they made out like river bandits in this deal considering the circumstances...

[wallus]

Seems like a crazy amount to give up for a QB with those legal issues attached to him.

There are no legal issues attached to Watson anymore unless you mean possible suspension from the league.  The charges have been dropped I believe or at least dismissed.
