Leader Posted July 21, 2019 Author Share Posted July 21, 2019 @Outpost31's favorite WR: Julio Jones reported to training camp. This was expected despite Jones being in the middle of contract negotiations. NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports "it may take a little while" before the Falcons and Jones reach an agreement, but it's a "most pressing priority." There's a chance Jones becomes the highest-paid receiver in the NFL when ink is put to paper. According to Sam Mellinger of the Kansas City Star, Chiefs DL Chris Jones "embodies all the familiar signs" of a training camp holdout. He and the Chiefs are reportedly far apart in contract talks. Jones is looking for a deal comparable to Frank Clark's, which included $63.5 million in guarantees, while Kansas City prefers something in the $45-50 million range. Jones, who is due a modest $1.19 million in the final year of his rookie deal, is hoping to cash in on the heels of his breakout 2018, a campaign that included a career-best 15.5 sacks. Unfortunately for Jones, the Chiefs also need to set aside funds for Patrick Mahomes (who is eligible for an extension next offseason) and contract-year wideout Tyreek Hill.

PFF was blowing up and nobody in their knew a ******* thing about anyone other than what they googled. His PFF score was like top 3 for LBs or some stupid thing and he got nearly 20million dollars for a one year deal. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I think Burks will step it up this year but that isn't a guarantee and we will only have Crawford and Summers behind them. A little extra insurance wouldn't hurt.

Leader Posted July 26, 2019 Author Share Posted July 26, 2019 According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, "there is mounting pessimism" holdout Melvin Gordon will be reporting to the Chargers "anytime soon." The Bolts and Gordon's agent have exchanged proposals in recent days, but talks remain "far apart" and Gordon's holdout is expected to be "prolonged" and spill into the regular season. Gordon appears dug in, and the Chargers just don't seem too interested in handing Gordon an extension in the $13 million annually range, which has been the going point for running backs lately. Austin Ekeler took the first reps with the starters at camp on Thursday. He's the clear back to own for L.A. right now. Justin Jackson is also in the mix.

Leader Posted July 26, 2019 Author Share Posted July 26, 2019 Back to back days of bad news for the NYGiant WR position: WR Sterling Shepard fractured his thumb in practice and will be evaluated on a week-to-week basis. WR Corey Coleman suffered a torn ACL during Thursday's practice. Their "post-Odell" period has gotten off to a rough start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Coming to the opening Hard Knocks episode nearest you.........) Every news report about wide receivers in the NFL makes me love Davante Adams even more. Although with such class acts as Donald Driver, Jordy Nelson, James Jones, Randall Cobb, makes me think a lot is owed to Donald Driver and Jordy Nelson for laying a foundation of excellence at that position in Green Bay.

Leader Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share Posted July 27, 2019 A broken/sprained thumb.....an ACL....and now a suspension. Maybe the "Odell-less" NYGiants wont pass the ball at all this year..... "The situation is going from bad to worse to almost disastrous for the Giants and what now must be considered an ill-fated wide receiver situation. Golden Tate, their free agent acquisition brought in to help offset the trade of Odell Beckham Jr., has been suspended four games for violating the NFL’s Performance Enhancing Substance Policy" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
