I do find it hilarious that they put a "no trade clause" in this contract. If something happens to make KC want to trade Mahomes, who would honestly take on a contract of this size? No one.
I can think of a couple. Jerry Jones who is desperate to win a Super Bowl and will do anything to get to that end. Even trading Dak and a slew of 1st round picks for Mahomes could be a possibility if the no trade clause was not in there. Also Danny Snyderbrenner.
Not a free agent but a big move. John Schneider figuring out again how to move in talent. Expensive though.

Trade/ Jamal Adams and the Jets 4th round pick in 2020
To Seattle, in exchange for Bradley McDougald (safety), 1st round pick in 2021, 3rd round pick in 2021, and 1st round pick in 2022
Deal is pending physicals
Never mind Adams wasn't happy with the jets. He was going to go somewhere.
He also gave up a lot to get him.
Gave up too much IMHO
Adams is a a star, but seems like a lot.
From the comments field:
As a Jets fan, I’ve see n every play he’s been on the field. While a good player, he is a perfect fit for what espn, and social media like to overrate. He makes big highlight reel hits, gives espn/social media worthy reactions after those hits, and gives memorable verbal clips after games. What you do not see on those reels are the blown coverages, dropped int’s, terrible team redzone defense, and him distancing himself from losses after not playing especially well himself. Can remember plenty of plays where Gronk grabbed balls over him and through him. If I’m going to pay a safety I want one who is a ball hawk, and makes the whole defense better in red zone situations. Jamal makes some highlight reel hits on rookie players. And for him to get to the QB, you have to blitz your safety! Good riddance and I can’t believe we got such a haul!
so your saying he'll fit right in with petey and the boyz
I can see the two firsts, Seattle thinks they’ll be drafting low, but the third feels a but gratuitous. Then again, with a good chance college football doesn’t happen this year, those 2021 picks are even more of a crapshoot.
Seeing some speculation that it's a Pete Carroll move. Regardless, price was way too steep and it seems like these blockbuster trades rarely work out.
Seattle is trying to duplicate what made that defense so tough 5 years ago. Having a fast safety that can cover up other DB's mistakes. They must think Jamal Adams is the new Earl Thomas.
He isn’t
This is interesting: As long-time #Vikings DE and current free agent Everson Griffen narrows down his choices, the rival #Packers are among the teams to express interest. That interest is mutual. Minnesota coach Mike Zimmer had recently said he wants Griffen back, as well.

I resent this remark......
John Schneider is finding it difficult to draft in the late 20's in the first round.

Hey John....Old Uncle Ted knew WTF he was doing. Of course you can always mortgage the future for a good player too. Unless that guy is Leroy Butler in his prime, there is NO WAY that trade will be worth it.
Cardinals to sign Kentrell Brice to a one-year deal.
There are two seasons in NFL History in which a QB has thrown for 4,000 yards and fewer than 5 INT.
Aaron Rodgers last year, and Aaron Rodgers the year before that.
We don't need any stinkin recievers, we need more fullbacks.

Yeah, that’s the ticket.
Possible emergency QB, Taysom Hill kind of player?

Like we've discussed before, Aaron Rodgers is the anti-Favre. Rodgers is not going to lose you games you should win easily. He doesn't make stupid mistakes, but he also doesn't take as many chances as he should. Favre would win you some games that were tossups or upsets just based on his talent and willingness to take chances, but he'd also lose you games that you should have won because of his recklessness in taking chances.
There might not be any QB in NFL history than Rodgers if you have a championship-caliber defense. But if you don't have a great defense, sometimes rocketball gives you more a chance.
Michigan, can you imagine if AR had a consistently good defense to back him up? A lot of people pile on AR for not winning more Super Bowls or going further in the playoffs but it isn't his fault it has consistently been the defense. Not sure of the exact stat but I think in the Packers playoffs losses during Aaron's time in GB has given up something like 34 PPG in their losses.
I sometimes wish AR took more chances but I prefer his precision over winging it late in games.
Yeah imagine AR with the Patriot defenses....
How can the Packers be the favorite to sign Antonio Brown if it won't happen????
The disastrous last 12 months have included at least of couple of no-shows in the court room - allowing nature to take it course against him. If he won't take responsibility for his own off the field life, he won't take responsibility for his on the field life either.
It's from an odds maker. That Vegas shit, not real world football.
Must be metric.
Glad they signed him up!!
Best red zone target EVER.

Holmgren didn't know what he was talking about.
“No more rocketballs, please?”

Yes, I know - but someone should tell them. After all, even Vegas wants to be right once and a while. Besides, all anyone outside GB knows is that the Packers did not draft a WR.

Just how tall is 6030?
Scouts use a 4 digit method to list a prospects height. The first digit is feet, the next two are inches, and the last digit is eighths of an inch.
So, this guy is 6' 3" (and 0 eighths) .
**If you were 6'4" and 7/8ths -would be listed 6047
