Brisket is a great get for the Pats. Perfect dude to start for a few games before handing the keys off to Jayden Daniels or whoever.

i know it was never realistic for miami to keep most of their guys and there's some crazy money being thrown around on new deals, but goddamn these are some pretty underwhelming signings

hopefully taking a year off from the draft has given grier some inspiration

Still not seeing Epenesa's contract numbers which I presume means he didn't get paid very much.

I’m pretty happy with all NE moves so far. Not like in a win the division way but in a pulling the chute on a roster that was in free fall toward worst in the league way. Draft will be huge of course.

Brissett feels like the biggest tell yet that they are taking a QB at 3

I kind of hate this, he’s too small to be an NFL starter. Like he’d be fun if he was a Patrick Ricard style experiment or whatever but he’s going to get bullied in pass pro and that’s the one thing we can’t have

ok but can he snap the ball well consistently

Dude is going to be cramming a half dozen Dave's Doubles with tears streaming down his face three times a day by December to try and hit 280lbs., but he has evolved past the need for a reach block. He will simply run around your 3 technique or whatever and be waiting for him fully perpendicular to the LOS to seal him against the flow. Tua will have died three months ago and this guy will be executing blocks on cornerbacks who snuck on to the field from the sidelines at the last minute.

Look what it would've taken to keep Huff vs what it costs to get Brian Burns for a pretty comperable player. Such rancid pathetic asset allocation by the Jets. Douglas wants to run this team like Ravens without any of the winning, good drafting or QB.

Yeah, it all hinges on getting a real QB in the draft which is a HUGE "if" but so far the Pats strategy seems to be "just be loving normal for once, christ."

I mean yeah, if Rodgers goes down for the whole year they are gigafucked. But if he’s out for a few games they could do worse than Tyrod. I’m content with it, I think.

The Bills were never going to make a big splash due to the cap, but events have pretty much followed best-case expectations, which I guess is a win.

I don't know how giving a lovely guard who was benched basically over and over again his first few years in the league, had to take a 1MM deal last year and then ended up playing decently in the context of a really good OL and system with a mobile QB 9 million dollars a year counts as value. But that is what gets Joe Douglas a stiffy way more than god forbid actually overpaying an actual GOOD PLAYER. Can't loving have that.

Still better than signing Jon Runyan. Best case scenario is he's the worse one on the OL.

Sign Tyron. Draft OT in the 1st.

I don't think they're paying him 9m per, it's up to 18m for two years which sounds like agent numbers. But yeah, the realistic best case scenario is he's a JAG that they can hide with other acquisitions, which would be an upgrade over Laken (which begs the question of who is going to do the hiding lol).

Replacing three OL starters was never going to be pretty, especially with Douglas doing it.

A Dolphins friend of mine thinks he'll be great in McDaniel's system. Pass blocking is, as mentioned by others, a concern, but I dont think he'll be getting highlight gifs of him planting his feet then getting pushed back into Tua on skates by some no-name DT.

When the Dolphins offense clicked last year, it was all about minimizing TTT and using motion, so this seems to fit well with that offensive MO.

Whether that offensive approach can be fine-tuned into a year-long success remains to be seen, but the team's cap situation made overhauling the line unfeasible so committing to being fast with a mobile center seems logical.

Joe Douglas LOVES signing awful players so much. He loves it more than I'll ever love anything in my life. 46 PFF graded DT. Jets will downgrade not just from Huff, but from Q Jefferson and Al Woods as well.
