2019-2020 NFL Season Thread

[MacNut]

The league year begins Wednesday and Tampering started Monday, here are the big moves so far.
http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...-trade-grades-tracking-every-big-signing-move

Nick Foles 4 years $88 million with the Jaguars.
DeSean Jackson traded back the the Eagles.
Frank Gore to the Bills.
Jamison Crowder to the Jets.
Trey Flowers to the Lions.
Landon Collins to the Redskins.
Danny Amendola to the Lions.
Antonio Brown to the Raiders.

Frank Gore amazes me, I think the dude is like 60 (okay maybe 35) but he keeps being productive and stringing together 14-16 game seasons above or near the 1,000 yard mark. He isn't a name you really expect to see on the first day of Tampering, but despite a lack of any major accomplishment you could easily name, he just continues to be productive, which for a running back at 35, is impressive in its own right.

Time will tell on the AB trade as to whether or not that is a good move or a bad one for the Raiders, as a fan formerly from Pittsburgh and now living in Denver, I gotta say I am *really* hoping for a bad one

 

[SDColorado]

Kareem Jackson to the Broncos. Not a big splash, but a solid physical guy who plays both safety and corner. Should be a solid addition.

Broncos also added former Dolphin RT Ja’Wuan James.

Broncos also got Flaco from the Ravens and sent Keenum to the Redskins.

Yeah, I’m not happy to see AB come to the AFC West and not be on the Broncos.

 

[SDColorado]

Yeah, I’m not happy to see AB come to the AFC West and not be on the Broncos.

I figured he wasn’t coming here when the Broncos announced they planned to pick up Sanders option for 2019. Was hoping he would go to an NFC team though and at the very least not a AFC West team.

I was surprised that the Steelers traded him with the AFC.

 

[SDColorado]

It does make you wonder if perhaps there wasn’t as much interest as AB and his agent lead us to believe, so Pittsburgh had to deal him to Oakland.

Broncos Just lost Roby to the Texans. Had a feeling he was gone

 

[SDColorado]

Denver Broncos to play the Atlanta Falcons in the Hall of Fame Game Preseason Opener, which will take place Thursday, Aug. 1, at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium in Canton, Ohio.

That will tie in nicely with Pat Bowlens enshrinement to the HOF

 

[MacNut]

Beckham traded to the Browns.

 

[SDColorado]

Dee Ford, EDGE - San Francisco 49’ers

 

[SDColorado]

Denver Broncos moves to date ...

 

[MacNut]

Shefty says Le'Veon Bell is going to the Jets.

Giants trade OBJ to the Browns

Looks like the Browns have the potential to be a really potent and scary team and the giants appear to have given up on the 2019 season. They got a more for OBJ then the Raiders/Pitt trade for AB. At least the Giants got something of substance.

I have to believe many Giants fans will be in shock this morning as they wake up to read the news.

 

[MacNut]

While OBJ is a great player, he carries way too much baggage with him. He is a spoiled brat who needs to grow up before he can really thrive. I'm shocked the Giants traded him but not really surprised.

I think you are correct.

Being on the outside looking in, since I'm not a giant's fan. I saw OBJ in 2017 trying to get his act together and be the leader and then he signed the mega deal in August of 2018. He seemed to shoot his mouth off and complain to the media about the ownership and players (coach too?). I'm sure he was disruptive in the clubhouse but since they signed him to a huge contract there was nothing they could do, or so I thought

I would have said the same about Antonio "Mr. Big Chest" Brown. It will be interesting to see how it works out for the Raiders. He may be outstanding, or he may remind Raiders fans of the Moss years in Oakland.

Kareem Hunt suspended for 8 games.

Also, an investigation is underway into an alleged battery involving a juvenile at the home of wide receiver Tyreek Hill. Maybe not a good offseason for KS so far.

Bryce Callahan, CB - Denver Broncos
Golden Tate, WR - NY Giants
Ryan Tannehill, QB - Tenessee Titans
Chris Connelly, WR - Jacksonville Jaguars
Tyler Eifert, TE - Resigned with the Cincinnati Bengals
Shaq Barrett, LB - Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, CB - Unretires, signs with Washington Redskins

In other news, John Elway didn't flub Joe Flacco's name during his press conference introduction yesterday (or thank himself). Keenum should have known he was a "bandaid" as soon as Elway introduced him as "Case Keesum" .

Ryan Fitzpatrick, QB f̶l̶e̶e̶c̶e̶s̶ agrees to terms with the Miami Dolphins

How much are the Fins paying for a month's worth of Fitzmagic followed by 3 months of Fitztragic? History has shown that the Amish Rifle is good for a month of elite level play then falls off the cliff. I think it's enough time for their rookie franchise QB to get up to speed. The Fins ARE going to draft a QB, right?

History has shown that the Amish Rifle is good for a month of elite level play then falls off the cliff. I think it's enough time for their rookie franchise QB to get up to speed. The Fins ARE going to draft a QB, right?

A two-year deal worth $11 million with incentives that could pad that number to between $17-20 million.

Connor Rodgers tweeted "If you are trying to tank, Ryan Fitzpatrick can do just enough to ruin that." He isn't wrong

Rumors have it that the Fins have their eyes on Tua Tagovailoa in 2020, but finishing 6-10 to 8-8 isn't going to do it for them.
