Does every nickel in the league have a 120 passer rating allowed when targeted?

That highlight is the player you’re getting, not some fluke :lol:

It doesn't seem like a very good signing, and I would have preferred to keep Callahan. But everyone overreacting seems a bit much. Maybe Nagy and/Pagano have some connection with him and see something they like or can fix. There are a lot of variables at play. He has been a pretty solid corner before this past season, right?

The last couple years have allowed Pace to have the benefit of the doubt IMO. So while it is not the signing I would have made, I will wait and see the dude in a Bears uniform before I get too bothered.

I have no idea. Sounds like none of us have ever heard of this guy. By all available info it was an awful signing though.

I liked Barr but that’s too much $ to invest in one position when there are several holes to fill.

Nick Foles worked well in Philadelphia. Did people forget what he looked like when he left the Eagles?

Mike Davis is good but still seems unnecessary. Jordan Howard is good too. Not sure why Nagy hates him.

Howard sucks running out of shotgun. Which Nagy runs a lot.


Yes

And I can’t tell if FF is trolling or not.

Spread you out and mix in the occasional inside trap or quick hitter with a Nagy type RB. Which Howard obviously is not.

Raiders sign LT Trent Brown, moving Kolton Miller to RT, Gabe Jackson presumably moves from RG to LG with Denzelle Good now a starter at RG. I like it.

Donald Penn, your work here will never be forgotten.

Jets have lost their damn minds. Mosley is a great player but 5 years $85 million is insane

15 NFL agents were surveyed on the best and worst places their clients could go. Bears and Panthers were the only teams not to receive votes for either side :lol:

The best place to go from an agent's perspective is the place offering the most guaranteed money

since when do years matter in NFL contracts?

I hope dalvin cook has a mediocre pre-season and doesnt rise up to the late 1st round in fantasy drafts.... because he is going to be a fantasy stud this year in a kubiak run scheme...

They don't, just seems an odd contract to give a guy who's worse and older than Mike Davis.

he just reported it is 14M in total... so after signing bonus it's probably not that bad year to year

And frees up Jets money for Bell. Unless he's going to Oakland.

John Brown to the Bills is a nice move for Buffalo. Perfect target for Allen.

What does he do on the field other than cover a TE decent? He doesn't get after the QB, he doesn't force fumbles, or create turnovers. His claim to fame was breaking Rodgers two seasons ago. As a Bears fan I am very pleased the Vikings will be emptying their remaining cap space on this very average/replaceable part.

The Vikings have Hunter and Griffen, and rush Harrison Smith a lot. They don't really assign the task of sacking the QB to their strongside LB. Especially since Joseph and Richardson can get to the QB often.

The beauty of the Mack deal is that it insulates us from panicking and paying this type of contract to Floyd.

Mike Davis is just a guy and Ingram has had problems staying on the field, and occasionally holding onto the ball while making the offense predictable. Yawn.

I'm sure the Saints can find a late-round rb who can run between the tackles. No reason to waste money on Ingram; window to win with Brees is rapidly closing.
