I saw the Trubisky news and immediately thought ‘Bears/Dalton all over again’. I still think if Malik Willis is still on the board at 20 or the Steelers find a reasonable trade partner then the Steelers will take a QB in the draft. Trubisky gives them some insurance if they can’t get the QB they want.

Where will deshaun watson end up now that he wont face any criminal charges......Steelers?

MeToo has been bumped by all the crap in the last two years, but the number of civil suits could make a lot of teams weary of social push back.

TBH I saw a lot of Trubisky, under a good coach he could be great. Nagy fucked him up but messing him

Also Mack to the chargers for peanuts is insane

This is the same argument people put forward with Sam Darnold and Adam Gase.

Jags give Christian Kirk $84mil.

Good player, but has never topped certainly not worth $84mil.

No wonder Davante Adams is saying he will hold out rather than play on the franchise tag.

TBF stability is a major issue for QB's, going to South Carolina is different to Pittsburgh

The Pittsburgh organisation is a great landing spot for a QB whether they are good or not

Raiders add Devante Adams. AFC West gone mad!
The AFC West is going to be nuts. As things stand I think any of the 4 teams could finish bottom of that division. No idea how the Raiders are getting all these guys in under the cap but good luck to them.

The NFC North on the other hand is looking the weakest I can remember. If Rodgers were to get injured I don’t think any team in that division would finish above .500.

I'd like to say expectation is growing for my team but it's a bloody hard division now to get out of.

Carr's got some nice weapons now in Adams, Renfrow and Waller alongside Jacobs and I wasn't originally aware of the link between him and Adams in college so if that chemistry comes back then we could be looking at something very promising indeed.

Because they're basically is no cap. As long as you keep on betting that the salary cap will rise 25 million a year which unless we have another pandemic based on the new TV contracts it will, you just restructure into the future like the saints have done and let it ride.

It’s looking much better for the Raiders. The AFC West is an arms race right now. Just hope McDaniels turns out to be a decent coach rather than the dick he was at Denver.

Matt Ryan traded to the Colts.

Can the Dolphins get traded to the NFC?

Tom Brady is going to be the QB in a division that currently has starting QBs of....Sam Darnold (until presumably they trade for Jimmy G or Baker?), Marcus Mariota and the "winner" of a QB battle between Jameis Winston and Taysom Hill.

Coming out retirement makes soooo much more sense.

Tyreek Hill to the Dolphins. Another day, another crazy trade. My brother is a Chiefs fan and he is, ahem, not happy.

(Which I think is bloody hilarious).
