Lions re-sign Barnes.   If they stay healthy, Barnes, Campbell, and Anzalone are a solid LB trio.

It's the Bengals

What will it take?

I don't think the Bengals will feet a 1st in the deal. Would you give a 2nd this year, a 3rd next year and LVN?

He'll be a popular target because it's doubtful Cincinnati cuts him, so you'll have to pony up.  If all it costs is a 3rd and LVN, it's a fireable offense not to make the deal

If things worked like the NBA, the Packers might have to give up a 3rd just to get someone to take LVN.

The pony-ing up will be giving him a 3-year, $80m+ extension.

Geno Smith to the Raiders for a 3rd.

What on earth are the Seahawks doing

What on earth are the Seahawks doing

My guess is that they are targeting Darnold. Quite a few years younger. And a 3rd for Geno is a pretty good deal.

Darnold behind that line will not just be seeing ghosts but will be turning into one

[MU82]

Gotta admit this one surprised me. Geno has weaknesses but he's been a legit NFL QB for years. Darnold sure as shyte can't say that ... and now he's about to get handed a sh!t-ton of money to go along with responsibility he hasn't shown he can handle.

Then again, it's scary if the Seahawks don't get him, too. There ain't nothing else out there.

[PGsHeroes32]

I might be a Seahawks fan from afar

Close the book on Darnold for me!!1

[MU Fan in Connecticut]

What on earth are the Seahawks doing

Isn't Pete Carroll the one who turned him into a legit starting QB?

The chiefs way

Rig games for them while they assault people on the side

Chiefs heading into 2025 with their top two WRs facing jail time (and potentially long suspensions).

I will laugh if AR ends up a Viking.

Bringing Davenport back on a heavily incentived 1 year deal.   So injury prone.

Myles Garrett gets a new deal.
Maxx Crosby's reign as the highest paid non-QB lasted a glorious four days.

Well, Myles did say he wanted to win.

The Cowboys not locking up Parsons early, like the Bengals and Chase, is looking pretty foolish.

Well, I wouldn't say they've been great in recent years in handling resigning their stars.

This is what poorly run teams do. Price only goes up.

Now, that being said, the Browns have been successful at pissing off 31 other teams through market-resetting deals. They summarily ignored the Watson deal as the new standard (fully guaranteed) but will have a harder time ignoring this one. Will cost a lot of extra money for Parsons.

[Jockey]

New contract for Trey Hendrickson goes up.

Cincy's return for him goes down. May not get a 1st back for him.

[Pakuni]

Aaron Jones staying in Minnesota.

[tower912]

Za'darius Smith is available.
