IDK, I'm just not expecting the needle to move much with DCarr in New Orleans (assuming he signs). Hopefully, the Saints/Mickey draw the line on compensation.
Waller missed 8 games last year. Renfrow missed 7. Adams had 1,500 yards and 14 TDs. Jacobs had a career year. Raiders defense was ranked like 28th. I’m not convinced Carr is a star but I’m intrigued.

Exactly. In the past fifteen years the Raiders defense has never been ranked better than 20th in the league in points allowed. Hard to win games when your defense can't hold anyone under 28 points per game.

Wild.
It's actually NOT interesting. And HE'S not interesting. We just don't have much else to talk about, sadly... probably for the next couple of seasons, sadly.

We can still talk about Hendon Hooker. His draft stock is rising pretty quickly after interviewing at the Senior Bowl.

Ask Drew how hard it is to win a championship without a good defense.

Hell, just ask him how hard it is to even win more than seven games.

Daniel Jones reportedly wants $45M per season

WTH? What has DJones accomplished to command that type of salary?

No telling what DCarr's camp is asking but the Saints shouldn't break the bank either. Get your books in order & continue to draft well.

Next in line. If the Giants won't pay it, someone else will. Note that $45 million is the cost of the exclusive QB franchise tag.

The only way to have it both ways is to draft a QB high in the first round. Only there is the talent elite and the price tag for the first 5 years are reasonable.

That's why I find discussions about Carr, or Rodgers, or Jackson, or any other elite QB that could be available for trade or signing in free agency laughable. Their ballparks are $50 million a year, and likely almost all of it guaranteed. Unless you are an organization that's prepared to win like next year, it's just a waste of time.

Only Atlanta choked in an unchokable situation... Life is definitely good.
