I think they feel like they need a QB, though.

I mean I suspect they're working on that. Could be Rivers or Bridgewater or someone and getting a dude like Buckner in a division where the only other decent team is falling on their sword and maybe the best oline in the league has to be somewhat appealing to prospective FA QBs.

Well you can't pay everyone and 21 million is a lot.

Exactly this. That's why I think it was a solid deal. Will the line take a hit? Almost certainly. But, I feel like we "paid" the more productive guy(yes, I realize it was only one season, but still) and at a cheaper price. You're staring down the barrel of losing at least one of these guys, you might as well get what value you can.

“Every time Stefon Diggs gets butt hurt he posts some ominous tweet about new beginnings or change,” said @zack_a9. “Then we get report ‘Minnesota has no intention of trading Diggs’ and he posts himself in Vikings uniform hugging a teammate or something. Relax Pats fans, he’s just a drama queen.”

I thought this was fake when my friend texted it to me. Texans are dumb as fuck.

It's not even the dumbest deal they've ever made. I still say that was the Osweiller fiasco.

Was that the one where the browns basically scooped a 2nd from them to take on the rest of Osweiler's contract? Very NHL cap relief feel from that trade.

And they got a bag of money IIRC! I don't think they even let brock compete for a job the next year, just cut his ass. I was really rooting for the browns to trade him to someone else and get even more picks.

So it looks like the Armstead deal is actually 6 years.

Yes, I totally get it and I actually really like the move the more I think about it. The reality was they were never going to be able to pay all of those guys, so they kept the cheaper option who proved he can play pretty well, and flipped the other one for the 13th overall pick. They drafted him 7th overall, got 4 years out of him, and now get to pick 13th. Not bad.

That's alright I guess. I haven't been paying much attention due to work and parenting but I just wanna say how disappointed I am that Miami didn't land Ryan Tannehill. I mean, he would have been great for us. I have all these pics of him in a Dolphins uniform, and it's impossible to tell if they're photoshopped or not.

Who wants to overpay for an over the hill TE?
Bears: We got this!

Dolphins should never sign Brady. They’d go 8-8 at best while losing every home game.

Diggs and a 7th to Buffalo for a 1st, 5th, 6th this year, and a 4th next year.

How does he get that compensation and Hopkins gets so little. BOB.
