It’s funny how many players see the whole of their contract but everyone out to talk shit about Lamar Jackson trying to maximize his guarantees. It was the same with smith last year why does everyone take owners side with these shady contracts

48.4% voted against the last CBA. And it was mostly fringe starters and bottom of the roster types that approved because the NFL raised the minimum salaries.

It was a brillaint move to acquire him and I am glad they all got their rings because it was deserved, but this dude's career is fully over and everyone knows it.

I really think the Rams are very strong players for first overall once they start making the flurry of moves that are coming. I know nocogneto hates the idea, but when they get sixth overall for Jalen Ramsey it makes them by far the most attractive trade partner in terms of future picks.

Probably because of situations like Damar Hamlin. Granted yes, they are voluntarily playing a very violent sport, but it has become increasingly obvious over the past decade the toll the game puts on their bodies. I have no issues with any player asking for more guaranteed money

I mean didn’t they trade away all their picks for next 12 years or something lol? They don’t really have the capital to make that happen, even if they start a fire sale on their players.

Is this the wide receiver most likely to be traded to Chicago Bears this offseason?

The Chicago Bears need to be in the market for a wide receiver. While they already traded pick 32 for Chase Claypool, that is not going to fill out the entirety

Should Chicago Bears draft Dorian Thompson-Robinson to backup Justin Fields?

The Chicago Bears may end up keeping Trevor Siemian because of his salary, but that should not prevent them from being in the market for a backup. If they go to

Until Virginia McCaskey lines up under center, I don't see why an owner should make more than the people who I pay to see play a game.
