Wilson signed a 1 year deal with the Steelers for $1.2mm???


If he signed for more than league vet minimum it would void what the Broncos have left to pay him


Damn...didn't realize that. What an FU move back to the Broncos

Quarterback Russell Wilson began his career with the Broncos by returning to Seattle. He might start his career with the Steelers by returning to Denver.

Yes, the Steelers are scheduled to visit the Broncos at some point during the 2024 regular season. In May, we’ll find out when. For now, that game becomes one to circle for the folks at 345 Park Avenue.

It feels destined for prime time. Maybe in Week One, on a Monday night. Just like Broncos at Seahawks in 2022.

Because we all want to see a 9-8 team vs. a 4-13 team in prime time.

Kirk Cousins will hit free agency and begin discussions with Atlanta as soon as the tampering window opens in 90 minutes, per sources.

The #Eagles and Pro Bowl guard Landon Dickerson have agreed to terms on a 4-year extension worth $84M base, $87M max value, source said. He gets $50M total guaranteed and a $20M signing bonus. The highest-paid guard in NFL history at $21M per year.
The deal was done by his agents at @_SportsTrust.

And about 2 minutes after that window opens they will miraculously have a 5 year contract completely ironed out.

These tampering windows are so silly

Cousins instantly becomes the best QB in the NFCS, which isn't saying much.

BREAKING: The #Colts and star WR Michael Pittman Jr. have agreed to a 3-year deal worth up to $71.5M with $46M guaranteed, sources tell @BleacherReport.

One of the NFL’s top young wideouts is secure long-term in Indy.

Feels like an overpay for a guy who was never made a pro bowl and averages 900 yards and 4 tds a season.

Breaking: Former #Eagles RB D'Andre Swift will sign with the #Bears on a 3-year, $24M deal, per multiple reports. A very strong deal for Swift, who had a career-high 1,049 rushing yards last season.

He's, at worst, an elite #2 and he's getting #2 money

WR1s were getting higher (up to $30M/AAV) previously. JJ is likely going to get $35-40M AAV.

No team who has playoff aspirations much less Super Bowl aspirations should be paying a number 2 receiver over $20 million a year. It’s one thing if the guy is a top 20-25 guy but that’s not Pittman.

Getting a RB to sign in hour 1 of FA? Teams must be ready to learn the hard lesson on paying RBs again

Or their agents are telling them to take the money quick before it dries up

I think the Bears just have infinite money to spend. I have to imagine that's a front-loaded contract.
