But he has significantly better numbers than Crosby ....are we going to be willing to make him the highest "non-QB" player in the league? In addition, if you sign him, that is it, you aren't going to be able to afford other FAs.

I'm not suggesting the trade for him, or trade for and sign him to an extension.  Was just estimating what the trade cost might be.

Cap space and his contract won't be the issue. It's much more about what the Bengals would want in terms of draft capital:

Most any team can do this but there is a reason that most don't. Restructuring too many contracts can result in cap issues down the road. I don't know enough about it to weigh in on the Packers specific situation, but it is a factor that has to be taken into account.

GB does not have cap issues or cap worries when it comes to signing Henderickson, and they don't need to restructure a bunch of contracts to do so and "kick the can" down the road. They can easily sign him. Again, it's much more about what the Bengals would ask. That they would ship him to an NFC team is probably more appealing that would also get Trey out of the conference.

Worthing noting as well..

Ship this year's no. 1 for Hendrickson or save it and draft another OL who plays sparingly? I vote Hendrickson.

Yep. And sign Joey Bosa. The defense becomes a big time defense.

Unless they make the SB, both Gute and MLF need to be done, period.

The Eagles won the SB in 2018, then fired that coach a few seasons later, hand-wringing who will you hire. Hire a new guy, win another SB in 2025.

Yup I see it all clearly now!

Hearing the Seahawks are interested in signing Darnold.  That would leave the Vikings with JJ McCarthy and (maybe) Daniel Jones (if he signs there). I wonder if there would be a veteran QB available that's looking for a 1 year deal to mentor McCarthy??

Rodgers....Rodgers ...Rodgers!!!!

Local sports media reported that Kirk requested and was granted a meeting with Arthur Blank. The purpose was to clear the air regarding his future in Atlanta (or elsewhere?).

The only comment by the Falcons was they "will do what's best for the team".
No comments from Cousins that I'm aware of.

However, Cousins has a $10M roster bonus due 03/17.

So Garrett has stated his ultimate goal was to win a Super Bowl, not be in Canton.  Sure looks to me like he picked the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ over a Super Bowl because Cleveland will never win one with the cap $$$$$  he will take up.

NFL contracts are taking up the absurdity that was reserved for the NBA and MLB.
