NFL 2019 Super Bowl: the restless shade of Mike Martz

That's a pretty expensive hit for OBJ, but in a slackening AFC North that might make a big enough difference to strike while the iron's hot. Peppers was pretty good, no?

Peppers is gonna go from a Browns defense that didn't know how to use him. To a Giants defense that won't know how to use him.

In 3 years he'll be the biggest Free Agent the Patriots have signed (to a pricey but reasonable deal) since Stephon Gilmore and become the best player on the team in the Post Brady Era of New England.

So Giants have lost 3 out of their top 4 players in just about a week(on an already shit team). I want to feel optimistic about the return value but I don’t, at all. 

A Barkley torn acl will be icing on the cake.

Hey now, don't feel too bad - while they lost three of their four best players, they also ate about $30m in dead cap space!

They used him well last year.  His rookie year was ridiculous, though.  No idea what the fuck they were thinking there.

Talk about a complete 180. Two years ago the Browns were the laughing stock of the NFL, now they are the 3rd highest favorite to win the AFC per Vegas. 

That offense. Mayfield, Beckham, Landry, Hunt, Njoku, Chubb,.....

Bears lose Amos (safety) to the Packers.  While not as eye-catching as Jackson, he was part of a really solid secondary.  Bloody vultures in Green Bay stripping players from a division rival.  They tried it with Kyle Fuller last year too.  But luckily for Amos, that made him worth $9m a year without any big statistics for interceptions.  Most of his best work is in disciplined coverage rather than eye-catching takeaways.

Bears pick up Patterson (WR and possible punt return and even RB) from the Patriots.  Sounds like he could be an alternate/back-up to Tarik Cohen in the system. 

Rumored that Bears are picking up Mike Davis (RB, Seahawks), which presumably means Jordan Howard will be traded.  He didn’t look a great fit for the Nagy offense last year (despite being great pre-Nagy) as his inside runs were a bit predictable, and he lacks dynamism to go outside or make sharp cuts.  And his rookie contract is winding down.  He’s a good player and will do well somewhere, but he doesn’t suit the new Bears well enough to merit them paying him his market pay after his rookie contract.
