Dude has one of the best gigs in football. Gets to live in a new city every year, and paid well to play a game.

QBs on a rookie contract and spend like crazy

The Steelers will give up one of their 6th-round picks in exchange for Michael Pittman and the Colts' 7th rounder, according to league source(s). So, basically, a salary dump by the Colts, and the Steelers benefit tremendously from it.

[BCN#1]

More moves than a box of ex-lax here as we dump (no pun intended) some high priced playas.

Of ours that remain to be signed somewhere, I am interested to hear yer all´s thoughts. For me, I would not cry if we resigned running back Ameer Abdullah as the back up to JT.

Though heck of a player, I am not 100% sold on Braden Smith returning unless he is on a bargain contract due to his age mostly. Similar thought to Germaine Pratt and I do hope we can find the pennies under the sofa cushion to retain Nick Cross but again, not holding my breath.

Say good-bye to Mo Ali Cox however, I am on the fence with those 2 defensive ends Samson Ebukam and Tyquan Lewis though leaning toward saying adios also. Pending the Draft haul, maybe bring those 2 back but only on a very low cost deal.

Thoughts at this point in time folks??

The #Titans are signing Bobby Okereke to a 3-year, $45M deal, per sources.

The contract will make him the 3rd highest-paid linebacker in the NFL.

This is fake news from a Troll / parody account on Twitter.

Okereke is still a free agent right now.

Interesting that Hendrickson has yet to sign. He’s obviously not getting the offers he thought he would.

Trey Hendrickson is seeking over $30 million per year, but no team showing interest is willing to offer that figure, per
@AdamSchefter
.

Hendrickson will not be able to fetch the same annual value the Panthers provided Jaelan Phillips.

Former Chiefs LB Leo Chenal is the top linebacker available in free agency:

- 6’3”, 250 lbs
- 25-years-old
- missed just two (!) tackles in 2024
- 44 starts during rookie contract
- 2x SB Champ

The #Colts are looking for youth at LB, and desperately need a championship mindset.

The Phillips contract is a tad bit retarded. Not my money, but does a torn Achilles in '23 + Torn ACL in '24 + 14 QB hits in '25 = $120m?

Obviously it does, but shit.

Is no news good news ???

In an extensive article in regard to recent NFL free agency, ESPN's Bill Barnwell does not mention the Colts or any of their players once ...... only a brief comment on the fact that the Los Angeles Chargers DID NOT acquire DeForest Buckner.
