Passer rating when throwing at Dez Bryant in 2017 was 74.8, and that could have been a LOT worse if Bryant hadn't actively broken up a bunch of INT-bound passes from Dak.

Stats from PFF

If you're willing to move to D.C. and babysit him, then I'd feel better about him coming here. I have female relatives in this area.

Denver cuts CJ Anderson

[quote=skinsfaninok;1192520]Denver cuts CJ Anderson[/quote]

Would be a nice pickup. Miami previouslu signed him to a 4 year 18MM offer sheet which Denver matched. Not sure if Miami is still interested since they signed Gore, but that’s a pretty reasonable price in my opinion. Wouldn’t mind it if we made a run at him for a similar contract. It would be one less position of need to worry about drafting on rounds 1&2.

I think he might go #1,Giants take Darnold at #2 an the Jets take Rosen at #3 Browns Take Allen #4. If the Giants can't get Barkly I would be happy with Chubb , Nelson but I would like to see them trade back and refill the team,I don't want any of the big name QB's there is still two much in question on them,take a QB but later in the draft.

Dez is right now is a plus version of Garcon and if he captures his old form you got a top RZ threat.
Jay can absolutely find a role for him within the passing game that's been missing.

I don't how much he would cost but at the right price i would welcome Dez.

He is a competitor. If we can get him with some sort of escape plan in a contract go for it.

Dez Bryant is a selfish POS. He is the antithesis of a team player. Not only is he a locker room cancer but he is a disruptive, unruly distraction on the sideline and someone I don't want in my community. I can't stand the idea of him playing on my team and living in my area.

Tom is very effective downfield but does he have an arm like Stafford or Wentz? No way. Brees is another guy with a Avg arm strength but he gets it done as well.

Here is a FA signing prediction for you: Roger Goodell will influence a team owner to sign Colin Kaepernick in order to get out of CK's collusion lawsuit which the NFL would probably lose in a jury trial. It's not going to fool many people but it might work in conjunction with a settlement.

Good for him. I hope he gets to remain the starter. I think winning the Superbowl the way he did should keep him starter and serves not to rush the other guy back to soon. But in impatient world of the NFL I suspect that will not happen

I've learned not to think "can't win" when talking about a civil trail with a [U]jury[/U] and a [U]lower burden of proof[/U] than a criminal trial. I don't think the NFL would want to take the [U]risk[/U] of losing a collusion lawsuit. So, yes, he'll be signed by some team and receive a settlement with no blame attached from the NFL.

I'd say, even without the risk of losing the trial, it'd be a pretty smart thing to do from a PR standpoint, wouldn't it?
It would end the talk about this collusion thing (which I have absolutely no idea if it's true or not, and, I'll admit, [U]not a lot of interest in[/U], not being American...).
Or do you think there'd be more people mad that the original kneeler was back in the league?

My experience has been more directed verdicts and motions for summary judgement in federal court. Settlement talks should come well after all the motions are filed to see if the matter can legally even be presented to a jury.

You're right thought, can't is stupid to use but his chances would have to be less than 10% if they are even that.

Re: Around the NFL: Free agent signings 2018
 

Personally, I think the profusion of poor backup QB's league-wide permeates this issue with the odor of collusion, whether or not collusion can be proven in court. Certainly, the NFL would like to make this entire controversy go away, so I think they'll try to resolve their dispute with CK in some way.

Of course, it won't work. The NFL is in a no-win situation from a public relations standpoint. Whatever happens, some segment of the U.S. population is going to continue to be pissed off about it and that will adversely affect the NFL.

I think Wentz will be the starter as soon as he is healthy. Keeping him under contract, gives the Iggles the ability to take their time in bringing back Wentz.

Re: Around the NFL: Free agent signings 2018
 

What do we think is Johnathan Hankins's play at this point?

I could see him antsy to get himself signed before the draft because after the draft a few teams might bow out of the Hankins bidding process if they feel like they solved DT in the draft.

On the other hand, he could remain confident that coming out of the draft there will be at least one team who will feel dissatisfied with their DT situation and may be willing to pay more.

I'm not dying over trying to obtain him one way or the other, but he's one of the last quality free agents remaining, really it's him and Dez. Wondering what you guys would do in his shoes. Get with a team now before the draft or wait and hope a team comes crawling to you with a serious post-draft need?

It seems like he and Dez will be waiting until after draft weekend, I think it's a wise decision for both to do so.Like you said Both are the best 2 FA left so the demand for them should increase after this week.

That's a really good question.
I hope our FO is trying to answer it.

I'd tend to think/hope he'd be more [B]antsy[/B] than confident, last year he was signed by the Colts on [B]April 13th[/B]... it's already April 23rd, and this year really [B]not many teams[/B] have invited him to a visit (us, Jets, he had a visit scheduled with the Lions but they signed Sylvester Williams just before... nobody else that I could find something about).

So really it's the Jets and us for now, I wouldn't be very confident if I were him. Now maybe his agent sees something that we don't but...

Re: Around the NFL: Free agent signings 2018
 

I think teams are locked into draft mode at this point, Hankins and Bryant will have to wait

Re: Around the NFL: Free agent signings 2018
 

[quote=MTK;1192817]I think teams are locked into draft mode at this point, Hankins and Bryant will have to wait[/quote]

It's a risk, for both team and player. For a team who needs a DT, you hope you can get a good one in the draft, but sometimes they're just not there when your pick comes up.

And for Hankins, he's had visits with the Skins, Jets, and Lions. After the Lions got Sylvester Williams I'm not even sure they're still in the Hankins market.

What if they all get a DT?

If you're Hankins do you call the Skins or Jets up now and say listen I'll take your one year $4M offer, or whatever they had on the table? Or do you wait, knowing it could mean somebody pays you a ton after the draft, or that you might have to take one year for $2M?

Not an easy call. If you're Hankins's agent you can't afford to let teams sit in draft mode if you think you need to make your move now.

I think he overplayed his hand. This draft will have several DT's taken that will reduce demand. I was pretty surprised he didn't take whatever offer the Jets made him. I wonder if he is willing to forego camp and see if a team comes up with a need in preseason.

I think he would be extremely lucky to get anything close to 8M per year between post draft and the start of preseason. But I do think if he accepted 5-6M for a one year deal that would get him signed.
