Za'Darius Smith and Allen Robinson are up there but I think they command more than we're willing to spend. And honestly....I'd rather go with the younger players at this point. It's going to be a dog fight this year and I'm not looking to sacrifice for a bunch of older players. We'll win moving forward with depth and just having good players everywhere. [Reply]
Safety Marcus Williams is agreeing to terms with the Baltimore Ravens on a five-year deal worth $70 million, per source. Big market-shifting deal in AFC North.

Yup. I'm just not on the Allen Robinson train. The time to have gotten him was 4 years ago when we should've signed him and Za'Darius Smith instead of Watkins and...well, you know.
Now he's 29 and coming off a tough year (yes, the situation with the Bears played a part in that but man he was awfully bad).
I forgot to mention Gladney.
Gladney, Key, Kyzir White, Derek Barnett, Shenault trade and Rasheem Green/Bilal Nichols is probably financially feasible and gets a nice little infusion of younger talent on the roster. Most of whom seem to be trending up. [Reply]

Is $14 million in AAV really 'market shifting' for a guy many thought was the top of the S market?
I don't see that as such.
And yeah, I think it's more likely that Mathieu ends up at $10-12 million/yr on a 2 year deal with every passing minute. Oh he'll throw some bullshit money at the back end to save face, but if Williams is at $14 million, I don't think Mathieu gets there. [Reply]

Fuck Tom Brady....this the dude that should have an ESPN documentary made about him. He's going to wind up making a ton money for basically doing jack shit. [Reply]

You aren't factoring in the cost of his "locker room leadership" and the amount of times he throws up his arms while on the field. [Reply]
