Ravens and restricted free-agent running back Gus Edwards reached agreement on a two-year, $10 million contract extension, per his agent Drew Rosenhaus. Edwards now under contract through 2023 season.


Edwards is a solid RB3 in redraft. He won’t get a large chunk of the pie, but the pie is larger than most backfield splits

He’s averaged north of 5.0 yards per carry all 3 years in Baltimore. He’s not going away, Dobbins owners

Some guy named Julio got traded to the Titans. I think he is a receiver.

Here’s something for ya

[NFL Update] Notes on the Julio Jones market, via Albert Breer: BAL talked to ATL before the draft but went out after taking Bateman; NE & LV never showed real interest; All 4 NFC West teams talked to ATL, but none made an official offer; Tennessee taking on Julio’s contract was key.

Been waiting on this thread. This board helped me win 2 championships last year. Let’s hope for a repeat

I have two Houston-related questions.

1. WTF is going on with Deshaun? I hear everywhere that Tyrod Taylor is the presumed starter. Are they trading Deshaun or is he presumed banned due to sex allegations?

2. What is Houston doing? I have not heard one word that sounds like the team has improved anything in the off season. Even the kicker will be undraftable in fantasy this year.

Any wisdom on this fiasco?

No one knows. I wouldn’t bet on either scenario. If I had to bet, I would lean towards not playing this year. I also don’t see a scenario where he doesn’t miss some games if he’s allowed to play.

They are accumulating every RB3 in the league to create a super RB

Houston will have the worst team in modern NFL history

IMO the only way he plays this year is if they settle the lawsuits this summer which gives Goodell enough time to decide how long to suspend him.

Once that is known, any prospective teams interested in him will start talking about trading for him.

I think the best case for him playing elsewhere this season is a trade deadline deal which could be after his suspension ends.

Houston is a dumpster fire. No one is draftable IMO in fantasy.

Agreed. New topic.

Aaron Rodgers. Heading in the wrong direction. Although there's a scarcity of quality QBs in the 2021 NFL, he may not be playing if he doesn't make a positive move soon. Reminds me of when he was sitting in that green room on draft day for what seemed like forever. I thought then as i do now, dude you're good, but not as good as you think you are.

My questions.

1. Who's going to start day one for the Pack? Rodgers? Love? Bortles?

2. Is the team good enough to win no matter who's under center?

3. Aaron Jones is a top 10 running back regardless, right?

It has to be Love if Rodgers doesn’t play

6 or so games, yeah

Not really

I took a flyer on Mills in both my dynasties, hopefully he becomes the long term starter down the road.

If Love isn’t undercenter with Rodgers not being there, they have bigger issues

Jamison Crowder agrees to paycut to stay with NYJ. LINK

Is there a more maddening PPR WR than Crowder?

Reading the Rotoworld Falcons fantasy preview and scrolled down to this.
quote:

RB: Mike Davis, Javian Hawkins, Qadree Ollison


Perfect situation for Ridley to have continued success and for Pitts to shine.
Rotoworld Falcons fantasy preview-running backs discussion

But the Falcons need to do something, right? Call Le'veon? Scour the UFA market?
