  • Flacco traded to the Broncos.
    That's the move a lot of people expected and it makes sense all round and it sounded like the Ravens were going to let him have a say in where he was going. Good AFC team with a chance of making the playoffs, good run game, which will help him and still a good defense. Good luck to him, a true Ravens legend but his time was up. I imagine it'll be a third/fourth round pick. I expect the Broncos to draft a QB to sit behind him for a year.

    What?! Makes no sense for the Broncos, who now have $47.5m committed in cap space on QBs. Absolutely insane number, and cutting Keenum leaves $10m in dead cap. 

    What is Elway doing? Does he even know what he's doing?

    4th round pick is presumed by most btw.

    This is probably good for Flacco but a very, very lateral move for the Broncos.

    - That said, there's some restructuring stuff that involves Ravens eating some dead cap and Broncos having an out after this year. I dunno. Makes it a bit more positive than I thought.
  • I think it's a slight upgrade for the Broncos. I'd take Flacco over Keenum any day.

    As a Broncos fan so would I. Guy is a dud on one good season. That said I don't think Flacco is the answer. Keenum had one year left and I'd rather have gone big on a draft QB, trading up if necessary, and look to bring him in as the season progresses if Keenum doesn't produce. 

    Also the cap cost is ridiculous. Completely ties us up now.

    Since trading Flacco the Broncos odds for winning the Super Bowl have changed from 100/1 to 125/1

    He's elite though ;-) 
  • He's a lot better than Keenum that's for sure!!

     Brown seems like a prick, but Roethlisbeger is probably the bigger prick.

    I hate both sides.

    Just seen a rumour: Wilson to the G-men. Now that’s a trade I like. We can then use our draft pick to shore up the O line. Win win.

    Doubt the Giants could afford Beckham and Wilson. Bye Bye Odell?
  • Lot of rumors locally of OBJ to the Patriots. Not a Patriot thing to do, but the sources are respected locally.

    Apparently they offered the best deal earlier in the year. 

    Russell Wilson to the Giants would be a crazy trade.

    Stand easy everyone, Colin Cowherd was the one saying he'd heard this.

    Complete bollocks.

    He's a bit of a WUM as well. 

    Where do we think Le'Veon Bell will go then? I hope the Ravens - What a way to stick it to The Steelers! AND him and Jackson in the backfield?! Yes please....

    ....but it won't happen. If he wants to get paid on a team with cap space and one that's competitive right now, it has to be the Colts in my opinion.

    Fancy Bell to go Packers.

    Colts would be instant contenders if he went there.

    Odd that he doesn't just **** his 'assistants' like every other billionaire. Its also genuinely surprising that Kraft couldn't make the story disappear.

    I thought Kraft had got caught in some random brothel but the names of some of the other people charged with him suggest otherwise. It will be interesting to see where this leads.

    Anyone know whether the combine is free to air this week? Kept me entertained at work last year so wouldn't mind having it on in the background again on YouTube.

    Raiders to Play at Oakland Coliseum 2019 and option for 2020 if Vegas Stadium is not ready.
  • John Ross up for trade apparently, can't see us getting more than a 3rd round pick for him

    Sounds like you'll be lucky to get that. That's a huge misfire.
