Dirty, little secret in the league right now is that no one defensive player is worth 20MM+ in a general sense. They've made it impossible to play D consistently and effectively with all the rule changes. How much $ did Aaron Donald get from the Rams this past offseason? And the Rams just gave up 45 points to the Saints. And Mack was in the lineup when the Bears gave up 40 points to the Patriots. Can't really stop the quick passing game in this NFL. The NFL is now NCAA 2.0 But if you throw in circumstance, like say if you have a young QB on a rookie contract, paying a defensive player that much won't kill you short term. With that said, not gonna give a damn about the Mack trade either if they just draft Nick Bosa and start building a collective through the draft. Go expensive and pay for offense through free agency..go cheap and draft defense since you can't play it anymore anyway. With the spread/spacing quick passing game becoming so prevalent, cornerback/sub package cover linebacker ( or safety) is where the most value is in this new game. Packers are off to a solid start building, have their 3 young corners, so I wouldn't worry about that Saints' pick..that was a late round pick the day they got it. Ward was a hell of a pick for the Brownies..they better hope his hip injury isn't serious.
What am I saying? I better hope Ward's hip is OK too. Browns could easily draft Greedy Williams if Ward's hip injury ends up being serious. Browns are in the 6 slot right now http://www.tankathon.com/nfl/mock_draft Would love for that Bears' pick to get down into the 14-17 area. Hollywood Brown @ #25 would be OK, but he's AB's cousin so he's a superdiva. Lol N'Keal Harry is a monster and I know Herm is helping him mature. Could definitely use a wide out with one of those 1st rounders
Imagine if they had held ARod off in the opener. Fuck'em. Don't need them thanks to Jerrah Jones. Jerrah helped get a new stadium and gave a 1st for Coop..he's co-owning the RAIDERS better than he's owning the Cowboys. Lol His pick is gonna yield one of those LSU all americans. How bout those Jerrahs
Like a wrestling promoter is right..just skip to 04:20 in the vid. Yep, it's wrestling. It's fake. It's TV. Lol But Rondo is real - https://nypost.com/2018/11/08/stephen-a-rajon-rondo-feud-brewing-after-locker-room-curse/
Former Patriot Dion Lewis after smacking the Patriots 34-10 yesterday " That's what happens when you go cheap..you get your ass whooped. " Hahahaha
taking into account the years of entitlement and smugness from bellichick, brady, et al... one of the greatest quotes ever
And I actually don't even blame the Pats for letting guys walk and replacing them, but yeah, that quote was just great, great timing like a Mayweather jab. The video/audio is even better of course
