The Broncos are getting raided. I can't remember a side potentially losing this many FAs since it happened to us in 2013.

I wonder how many people will blame Von Miller's contract for any struggles they have down the line. Maybe he should be a team player like Brady and take a pay cut so they can keep winning.

I know. This is so much fun to watch. Elway built that team to win  now with no regards to the future, and now it's all crashing down. Good chance they lose Miller, too, after this year. His long-term cost just went WAY up in the last couple days.

I'd almost feel sorry for Gary, but my feelings are still butt-hurt. They deserve Kaepernick, LOL.

Quick answer from Travis Benjamin during introductory Chargers press conference. Was it tough to leave Cleveland? "Not at all."

Ouch...

[52520Andrew]

#Packers are signing back LB Nick Perry on a 1-year deal, source said (as @TomSilverstein reported). They declined his option but kept him

[52520Andrew]

Seattle reached agreement with WR Jermaine Kearse - back to Seahawks, per source.

[52520Andrew]

Bushrod to Dolphins

[52520Andrew]

Would not expect safety Eric Weddle, one of top FAs still available, to make a decision anytime soon. Will take his time. Mull all options

[Daft Classic]

Ravens win SB, team's FA's get raided

"They spent too much money on Joe Flacco and his contract is keeping them from resigning much of their core. That team is falling apart

Denver wins SB, FA's get raided

"This is normal for SB champions. Denver will still be a contender and can afford to make Miller the highest paid defensive player ever"

Manziel will be cut by the Browns by the end of the day. 

Also according to Schefter, Colin Kaepernick WANTS TO PLAY for the Browns. Browns should feel special that someone wants to play for them.

How is that even possible? who says..."I need to revitalize my career, Cleveland is the spot to do that"

This could really screw up our draft.  I heard he wants to go to NY, to be close to his GF.

There's always the draft. They haven't lost that many OL, just Mack and Schwartz. I can see Browns going WR, OL early. The Draft is loaded in OL. Lol maybe they pick Treadwell at #2. It is Cleveland, after all. 

[ALI624]

The shocker of the year: Johnny Manziel has been cut!

[Ravens4Real]

Don't forget, Browns are getting back Josh Gordon this year. He should be reinstated at some point. So their need of a WR isn't that great. Well, not great enough to take one at #2.

Teams don't stay bad forever. NE used to be the joke of the NFL way back and don't forget how bad the Ravens were with drafting QBs. I dread the day Joe retires, to be honest. I have the feeling the Browns will adress the QB position later and take the best player available. I hope, I'm wrong though.

Don't forget how bad the Steelers were before they brough in a guy named Chuck Noll

Yup, eventually the "well, it's the Browns"-excuse won't work. Nothing is build to last, even losing streaks.

It's 2016. Nearly 17 years of losing with like one or two good seasons sprinkled in. For the Cleveland Browns, their bad luck just never ends.

Guessing the Bucs don't mind the drama Brent Grimes' wife brings. Bucs signed Grimes to a 2 year $16.5M contract. Also his wife deleted her Twitter so maybe that was part of the deal to sign with Tampa?

Sanchize!!!

Broncos traded for former Eagles and Jets QB Mark Sanchez, as @MikeKlis reported. Broncos gave Eagles a conditional 7th round pick in 2017.

Lol, they may bring Tebow to camp as well - copy Chip Kelly's grand plan.

My goodness, from the Denver Tebows, to the Denver Mannings and in 2016 the Denver Buttfumbles!

[DomMcRaven]

This Denver team is going to look SOOO different now. Don't they still have to sign Von Miller to a long-term extension?

 

Please oh fax machine, help our Ravens once more.....

[arnie_uk]

Wilkerson for Bennett and a second? Wow, huge trade for the bears. Wish we got in on that

Brilliant for the bears I think. One of the best dline players in the league.

[arnie_uk]

Swap firsts with them and give out 4th. Draft spence with their 1st. Pass rush solved

[arnie_uk]
