I figured that was nothing in this NFL. Average WRs make more than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Average WRs make more than that Granted, the hierarchy was affected because Peterson's and Murray's (and Gore's; but I can't remember if his was all that high) salaries went off the books this offseason (and also technically because Bell hasn't signed his tender or agreed to a new contract and is thus, "without a contract"). But RB's don't tend to get the guaranteed money that WR's do for the specific reason that teams want to liberty of being able to slip the contracts whenever they like. Plus... we haven't really seen Top 3 RB contract handed out since what? Murray to Philadelphia that was then sloughed off to Tennessee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeezla Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Any word on NaVorro Bowman? He would look great in green. With wings on his helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now we probably can't afford to pay what he would potentially be offered, but the fact he hasn't signed with another team yet might mean we're working on it. If we do re-sign him, Kendricks is probably a goner, or at least that would be my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All NFL players make the most of their income in the second and even their 3rd attempt at FA. RB is the one position, where FA are not paid a whole lot, in the belief that their best days are behind them. If I am a young kid deciding on what position to play, I avoid RB like the plague!!!!

DoleINGout Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Patriots trying to sign Suh. Unsurprising and definitely needed to stay comletitive with Chiefs, Titans, Jaguars and rest of NFL in the postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soko Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Any news on Zach Brown or Nigel Bradham? I imagine they’ll be getting a lot of $$$ given the Hitchens deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD4L Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Random note about Richard Sherman: For the flack he's received about his deal I think it's a bit overstated. First off assuming he is healthy, he's got a great chance to see most of his year one salary. If he's not healthy after year one he would be out of a job regardless. In this current deal if he performs at an all pro level, why can't he ask for a restructured deal? It is something that was discussed often in Seattle and he can seemingly get his money converted into a signing bonus. It's obvious the expectations he set for himself is to be essentially the same high level talent he's been in his career. While I agree he's asking himself for a lot, he's got a much better chance of receiving the entirety of his contract (provided he is healthy) than most of the guys whom are getting paid this free agency cycle.

While Hitchens and Dion Lewis got paid - those positrons (off ball LB & RB) are so devalued that it’s not surprising little action was seen early. Big $ deals go early so those positions usually wait. I bet we’ll see action soon now that the big marquee contacts are done. Next wave coming up.

Forge Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Surprised Pughs market has been so quiet. I assumed when norwell went off the board, we'd hear a lot, particularly given the interior oline struggles of so many teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't play much last year, but he was very good as a coverage linebacker the year before. Wondering if they are prepping for life without bradham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
