Camp arm. All teams load up on QBs and kickers before OTAs and camp. Not unlikely to see 5 QBs and 3 kickers on a roster for OTAs and training camp. Don't want the starters burning their arms and kicking legs out (or worse) before the season.

Re: Around the NFL: Free agent signings 2018

How can the Rams do the trade with the Pats that puts them $3M over the cap? There must be corresponding moves, but nothing has remotely been announced.

How can any team continue to trade with the Pats is what I ask myself.

Re: Around the NFL: Free agent signings 2018

The Pats are amazing at this stuff, but it's only going to last as long as TB12 is there.. They wouldn't be trading guys like Cooks with a QB not named Brady.

True.

I'd be really curious to see what Brady'd be worth without Belichick, and BB without TB.
I tend to think BB could've worked his magic with virtually any capable QB (maybe not to the same level), but yeah TB is a great part of their shared success.

Bill has a way of finding players able/willing to do things exactly way, do whatever he wants them to do, play wherever he wants them to line up...

I think it's because lot of players know he is not afraid to remove them from the team if they gives Bill hard time. We can use RG3 or Portis as examples - both players knew Snyder was in love with them and they took advantage of this by overrulling the coaches whenever they want to. Obviously Kraft loves Bill and gives him complete control over the decision making so Bill has huge advantage in this scenario.

Yet ironically, there are rumblings out there that Brady went over Belichick's head and went to Kraft about the whole Jimmy G. situation. Apparently Belichick wanted to keep Garoppolo and Brady wanted him gone. And well we all know what happened.

Re: Around the NFL: Free agent signings 2018

I agree, 5 titles in the modern game is nothing short of greatness. And that's totally discounting the 3 losses too. Say what you want about him exploiting the rules but would any of us be mad if Gruden did the same and we won SB's?
