Few Early Free AgencyTrade Highlights
Deshaun Watson - Is deciding between Falcons and Saints apparently - Falcons will mean Matt Ryan is available - Saints Winston is a Free Agent but recovering from an ACL, Hill is an adequate back up no more than that.
Von Miller - signed a 6 year contract with the Bills
Davonte Adams - Despite Rodgers signing a new contract, refused to play under the Franchise Tag. Has been traded to Raiders for this years 1st and 2nd round draft picks. Carr and Adams we're college team mates at Fresno State. Adams also signed a new contract
The AFC West gets even more loaded and levels the playing field for the Raiders against three elite QB's. Carr is good but will never be classed as elite. Also means the Raiders dont have to worry about who to take in the first round of the draft there record is awful over past couple of years although new GM and coach.

@chris-osborne Lol crazy 6 weeks after calling it
-
That didn't last long Brady comes out of retirement
-
@martin He needs an O'Line and decent receivers also neither of which you had much of last year excluding Geseki
-
@chris-osborne yeah I tend to agree the only thing I will add is Tua has yet to have a coach who wanted him. Whereas the new one clearly does and it's why he was so keen on the job. So maybe he can unlock the potential, one can always hope!
-
@martin Only reason I left them off the list of potential landing places but this is Professional Sport anything can happen. I think you should go for him Tua is ok but he's never going to be elite

@simji said in NFL Strategies:
Just seen Watson will have no charges
Interesting the offseason just got even more interesting - Steeler, Seahawks, Browns, Panthers, Bears for me would be the franchises in the running. Bears probably wont get involved because of Fields but I think they have got a complete dud there which will be proved next season.
I also think its highly likely the NFL will ban him for a few games if past history anything to go by - Rothlesburger, Zeke to name two
-
@chris-osborne Exactly, what a lot off teams have to know though is those teams were decent anyways - they had the pieces in place.
I mean the Rams had Donald and Kupp etc...
Wagner defo got another 1/2 seasons at the very top in him.
Waiting on this news on Watson
-
@ryan I'd take Wagner in a heartbeat at Dallas
So many teams this year with glaring holes at QB must all bethinking they can do what the Bucs and Rams have done with the right pick up.
Watson's legal situation is the key to the entire off season up to the draft
-
Yea it really is saying something that Russ is there and he might be the third best in the division?! How crazy.
Von Miller going back would be good for the Broncos they are already loaded, they'll do well.
Bobby Wagner will be a good pick up for a team wanting to make a run as well.
Interesting to not the last two teams that were pretty loaded that went in on a solid QB were the Bucs and the Rams...

@chris-osborne said in NFL Strategies:
@ryan Maybe but they also have Mahomes and Herbert to contend with in the AFC West
Saw something somewhere that Von Miller wants to go back as well
Got to be the best QB division in history, three QBs who will surely all make the hall of fame, probably first ballot too! Herbert still has plenty to do but he is on pace for it even if he never wins the Superbowl a la Dan Marino.

Blimey Washington Commanders trade for Carson Wentz - is that the best they can do.
As a Dallas fan I'm laughing all the way to next years NFC East title and years to come - Wentz, Jones and Hurts really!
This statement will probably haunt me
Can't believe Indy have given up on Wentz a year after giving up a first. Madness! I still think in the right environment he could be good again.

-
@chris-osborne Very true, I think Denver will make it far this season - they had a lot of the pieces last year but now with Russ wow
-
@ryan I think half the league will be after Watson as soon as the outcome of his legal issues is known - announcement due in the next few weeks I think.There are so many teams that need a QB with a draft class which is pretty poor.
Even if not prosecuted, presumably he'll be facing an NFL suspension if the past is anything to go by
-
@chris-osborne That statement will not haunt you no way cannot see that hurting you lol
Dallas all day baby!
Right now nobody of note, I am hoping they go for Watson - always rated him.
Let's face it Seattle are shite with first round picks so they'll be wasted, but the players they got in exchange will help.
I think the main issue though is still the fact that Pete's style is so 94 - some serious changes needed.
Ownership will change as well I think soon.
