NFL Off-Season Thread

I love Fitzmagic. When he retires, I need to see that man on a pregame show shined up in a snazzy suit with those beard locks flowing.

Surprised no one has posted about the new NFL TV rights agreements. Looking like the series of agreements will total in the neighborhood of $100 billion or more.

Some of the big changes:

- Thursday Night Football to exclusively air on Prime Video (15 regular season games and one preseason game per year)
- ABC back in the Super Bowl rotation for the first time since 2006 (Super Bowl LXI and LXV)
- Flex scheduling for Monday Night Football after Week 11
- Game simulcasts on the digital platforms of CBS (Paramount+), Fox (Tubi) and NBC (Peacock)
- Sunday morning International Series game to exclusively air on ESPN+
- Peacock to air "one exclusive national game" a year from 2023-2028 and “deliver an exclusive feed of a select number of NFL games over the course of the agreement.”

Also, seems like the expectation is that this will bump the cap to around $200 million for the 2022 league year and $230 million+ for 2023.

Also, ESPN+ gets Sunday ticket starting in 3 years

I honestly think we need to sign him to a one day contract when he's ready for retirement because it's a crime he never played for the Browns.

I'd also be fine with retiring that jersey.

Vinny 2.0?

Heard an amazing stat on DLF this morning. After signing Andy Dalton, the Bears' Super Bowl odds went from 40:1 to 50:1.

Isaiah Wilson released by the Dolphins literally a week after trading for him.

Gotta figure his career is over, right?

I really don't want to hear the inevitable "Let's bring him in, it's worth a shot!"

We're finally a team with standards. We don't need to sell those out for perceived talent.

I hate seeing these kids throw their careers away. What a waste of space he is.

Yup. All the talent in the world can't make up for a lack of maturity, work ethic, self control.

He'll be broke very, very soon, I'd wager.

Details emerge on DT D.J. Jones' new deal with 49ers | 49ers Webzone

One guy we talked about, DJ Jones of the Niners, made a nice chunk of change to remain a starter. One-year deal worth $3.5 million, with nearly all of it counting against this year's salary cap.

Don't know if Sanders was going to make it through the season in Buffalo without retracting his statement.

Ranch >>>>>>>>>> blue cheese

Glad the browns didn’t sign this dope

Blue cheese is fantastic, you heathens.

I know the lawyer is a crook, but 24 women alleging Watson assaulted them sexually is not going to appear out of thin air.

Best not to say anything on either side.
