Yeah baby! Glad Howie inked Alshon before all these WR’s raise the market.

He's a borderline top 15 and not even the best receiver on the team.

Figured Bowles was on the chopping block, I guess that's one less vacancy this offseason.

Possibly Gruden to TB. That would be another vacancy filled.

I'll believe the Gruden stuff when he actually signs. Seems like every offseason recently there have been rumors of him making a comeback.

Jordy Nelson isn't what he used to be, I would take Adams over every other offensive weapon on that team that doesn't wear the #12.

I would be surprised if he signed. Although it seems like Chucky is a little more talkative about it this season.

Probably starting to get the itch, especially since the Bucs are 1-2 good pieces away from being a play-off team in the NFC. Chucky's always been better at shopping than cooking though.

Yeah I don't see it happening. Especially because the rest of the South looks damn good right now. EDIT: if anything the Giants vacancy should be the most appealing one at the moment. Was at a bar earlier and saw ESPN with Adam Schefter saying the Browns HC job is more appealing than the Giants' but I didn't hear/read the reasoning for it. Just sounds bizarre. (Also I thought Hue Jackson was safe? I guess not.)

Cleveland has a boat load of draft picks. So if they get a half decent GM they could have solid core in 1-2yrs.

Yeah but it's Cleveland lol. Those big "ifs" get WAY bigger.

This is true, but a savvy GM could strike gold in the next two drafts...OR bundle some picks for a key free agent or two? It wouldn’t be easy, but more picks gives you a better chance of hitting on a core player.

Jordy was playing great with Rodgers.

I guess Gruden said no.

[imsounoriginal]

I'm sure Jameis is thrilled lol

Big Dez Bryant news:

I hate you, Iggles fan!

Giants GM Dave Gettleman said he's "moving forward" with the idea Eli Manning will return as the starter next season.

"If what I saw against Philadelpiha is not a mirage — and I don't believe it was — then we'll just keep moving." Gettleman's comments fall in line with the Giants handling of Manning since Ben McAdoo's firing. Manning isn't a lock to be back in 2018, but his contract ($12.4M in dead money) and ownership support suggest he'll remain in New York. The Giants need to make a decision on Manning in early March if they want to avoid paying his $5 million roster bonus.

They’d be smart to bring him back.

Jameis is the problem, not the coach.

Jordy is still a legit WR... #knowledge

Cleveland has a solid GM now but it doesn’t matter what they do until they release No Clue Hue.

I don’t understand the appeal of Gruden. I’m one of few that like him in the booth but he wasn’t the best coach out there.
