Solomon Grundy Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 On 4/11/2024 at 1:10 PM, Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD said: Getting separation is the most important component of playing wide receiver. It's difficult to tell whether Keon Coleman will be N'Keal Harry or Drake London at the next level. Josh doesn't tend to throw a lot of 50-50 balls or fades, and only throws to a guy when they're in the open. A receiver like Troy Franklin at #28 or trading up for Brian Thomas could be electric with Josh throwing them the ball. I, personally, would think that catching the football is the most important component of playing WR. London is able to make the plays by catching the football. Harry wasn't able to do this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a post June 1 trade is only $13mil? Can picks exchange hands on Thursday with a player being designated a post June 1 officially?

Post 6/1 designation is for cut players only. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only real negative is you can't get him on a rookie contract, and it would cost high draft picks to secure him. (Those are pretty significant, however.)

He will probably cost almost as much as MHJ in trade and will be extremely expensive vs a limited contract for a top draft pick. Of course you’re paying for the certainty that this player is for real in the NFL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you’re paying for the certainty that this player is for real in the NFL. The silver lining of taking the big cap hit on Diggs this year is resetting the economic structure of the roster. That is predicated on replacing him with WR talent on a rookie contract. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know, his fake hamstring pull TD celebration really annoyed me. what was his injury last year? He only played in 10 games no question his numbers are elite.

NewEra Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 3 hours ago, Warriorspikes51 said: Can he be extended to spread cap for acquiring team before the trade is processed? Or can SEA eat $$ I don’t care enough to look into it 😉 I don’t see him being an option this offseason, but who knows 🤷🏻♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsShredder83 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 4 hours ago, NewEra said: Anything is possible, but his cap hit is 24M this year. If they trade him, it’s 36M Yeah my bad I meant Legette just seems so comparable to DK, in every way. WOULD THROW UP if we miss on a pick and legette ends up an absolute freak. 2 hours ago, OldTimer1960 said: I don’t know why the Chargers would want to trade Herbert - dude can play.

It’s tough to see how the Bills could work a deal to pay an expensive vet contract. They chose not to be more aggressive on contract restructures so that tells me that they chose not to go the high priced vet route. I think next offseason they’ll target to add talent that way. This season it’s just the draft. Edited April 21 by BarleyNY 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If minnesota goes for QB thry ent moves thst open cap space in 2025. if you have QB established, then you use the cheap labor in the draft.
