    Fre Agency Updates and Reactions

    https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...johnson-texans

    Bill Obrien should be fired retroactively to before this travesty was unleashed on the world. This guy is going to single-handedly ruing Watson's career.

    Yay for the Cardinals. I'm putting them in the playoffs next year.

    Re: Fre Agency Updates and Reactions

    Wow! That is a steal for the Cards on paper at this moment. This is a WR rich draft with talented prospects even at the UDFA level. Hopkins is IMO the best WR in the game right now but Watson is the heart and soul of that Texans team. Hopefully this is just the first step in putting a better TEAM around the young QB. Otherwise this trade doesn't make much sense.

    Re: Fre Agency Updates and Reactions

    I bet Matt Millen is laughing his ass off at Bill O Brien
    You trade one of the best WRs in the game for a 2nd round pick and a RB whose last good season was in 2016 and is a one year wonder? Everything Bill O brien does it seems makes me believe he needs to be canned

    On the other hand, Ozzie Newsome has to be very impressed with what his successor is doing as GM in Baltimore
    After obtaining an all-pro D-lineman for only a 5th round pick, they trade a no. 2 TE to the Falcons for a 2nd round pick. As a division rival it stinks but as a neutral observer it's very impressive

    Colts trade 2020 first round pick to Niners for DeForest Buckner. 13th overall pick.

    I thought this had to be some type of early April Fool's joke when I heard it briefly on the radio driving home from work today.........but it's not.

    Unless there was some type of deep issue with Hopkins and the Texans that people don't know about, this is one of the worst trades I have ever seen on paper. Hopkins is a true stud, and I have never heard about any off the field issues........this makes no sense to me.

    I might have to visit a Texans forum to see what their fans are saying.

    Supposedly Hooper is going to be the highest paid TE in the NFL. I'm sorry Browns, but if this is true, you have mega $$$ tied up in Hooper, OBJ, and Jarvis Landry.............and a weak O-Line and some issues on defense. I don't get it.

    ...and Houston Texans fans are rightfully pissed off (...or should I now say "ex-fans" based on this thread...)

    https://www.texanstalk.com/threads/h...dinals.115052/

    For anyone who consistently bashes the Steelers FO, just realize how good we really do have it as Steelers fans. If you just look around at many other team's boards you will soon realize that the Steelers are in fact one of the best run organizations. I can only imagine the futility that Texans, Dolphins, Redskins, Jets, Lions, etc., fans feel year after year.

    I read an article that claims O'Brien traded Hopkins because he wanted an extension with the Texans but still had 3 years left on his current contract. O'Brien is acting GM and HC for this franchise. They have noone but themselves to blame for failure.

    Newton responded to the team's post on Instagram saying that he could seek a trade.

    "Stop with the word play. I never asked for it," he commented. "There is no dodging this one. I love the Panthers to death and will always love you guys. Please do not try and play me or manipulate the narrative and act like I wanted this. You forced me into this. Love"

    Is that a rumor you've heard...or is that just wishful thinking?

    He's a very good player. I just don't know that they would upgrade SS when they have more offensive issues and they drafted Edmunds in the first round a couple years ago.

    I'm reading that he seems to be in contact with the Saints and the Panthers. For the Steelers, Bell instantly upgrades the SS position and makes Edmunds a great backup at both FS/SS. OR backup SS only but Edmunds plays the nickel LB too.

    This article puts the cost at $5-$8M:

    Karl Joseph signs with Cleveland.
    A'Shawn Robinson signs with the Rams. 2 years $17 mil. Oof.
    Desmond Trufant signs a 2 year deal with the Lions after being cut by Atlanta. (Darius Slay wished him well while hoping that it speeds up his trade process on twitter)
    Atlanta signed Dante Fowler to a 3 year deal
    Former Ravens NT, Michael Pierce signs with the Vikings on a 3 year deal. Hell of a run defender, easily replaces Linval Joseph
    Malcolm Jenkins returns to the team that drafted him in the Saints after being let go by the Eagles.
    Chris Harris Jr leaves the Broncos for the Chargers on a 2 year deal. The Chargers also signed DT, Linval Joseph, and former Packers tackle Bryan Bulaga
    Rams sign former Bears pass rusher Leonard Floyd to a 1 year deal worth $13 mil.
    Bit of a surprise, Titans trade Pro Bowler Jurrell Casey to the Broncos for just a 7th round pick.
