Free Agency Breaking News- NFL - Breaking News Thread 2025 Offseason

Well all of them, including Jenkins, were drafted to play tackle.

As a former short QB myself, it does matter. OGs and Centers shouldn’t be 6’6” when your QB is Tua. It’s just not ideal.

Now if the player is an all-pro caliber talent, it’s not that important. All things considered, if you can avoid a player that height, it’s better for the QB.

OGs are in the throwing lane, OTs aren’t.
Disagree...

The pre-draft stuff on both Eich and Hunt said that they 'might' make it at Tackle, but would be better Guards.
 
My initial thought as well.

If you’re spending that kind of money on a player with very little chance of helping you get to a Super Bowl, what’s the point?

It’s possible that they had to spend the money as they haven’t spent much the last few years and they do have to spend a minimum amount of salary cap space over the course of a few years. It’s just so hard to comprehend them spending this money, on that guy, at this point in his career. With a $125M in cap space going into FA, they probably had to spend more than what they already have.

Kudos to his agent.

Between this contract and Milton Williams being the highest paid player in Patriots history, it’s mind boggling.

But ya, I’m happy about it.
Hopefully the Browns and Giants take Hunter and Carter in no particular order just so neither of them are available to the Patriots.

Then the Patriots would have to decide between Campbell and the Arizona big WR.
 
A lot of brothers forget that the top 51 thing about who counts against the cap is only for the offseason. Once the season starts, they all count.

Now... most of them don't count for very much, but they must be under the cap.
 
Our running game died when Ajax went out and Lamm came in... so I disagree that he was starter quality... quite strenuously.

Then there's the way his season ended last year... with back surgery-- which is a KILLER for a big man. More Lineman careers are ended by bad backs than by anything else.

He was a hot 'no way in Hell" candidate for me.
Didnt Jenkins also have some sort of back ailment early in his career?
 
If you’re spending that kind of money on a player with very little chance of helping you get to a Super Bowl, what’s the point?

Some of us have been saying this exact same thing since the moment we gave Tua over 200 million dollars. Glad to see you're finally realizing it!
