2014 NFL Offseason Thread

[Snowman1]

So that means we can mark the Eagles or Giants down as NFC East champs. Cool.

Just saw an interesting nfl.com video about what could have been, and I'll take it one step further: On September 18, 2011, with a little over 3 minutes to play, it was 4th and Goal in Carolina, Packers lead by a score with 4 yards to go. Cam Newton scrambles and tries to run it in but gets stopped 1 yard short by a great Clay Matthews tackle. Packers win.

Had Carolina won that game, the #1 seed in the NFC would be in jeopardy on the last week of the season, so Aaron Rodgers would have thrown for a thousand yards against Detroit... and, you guessed it, no multi-million dollar contract for Matt Flynn. Seattle couldn't roll with T-Jax any more, and they needed a savior of the franchise. If Matt Flynn never played, they can't just rely on some third-round rookie. They would have Ryan Tannehill or Peyton Manning at QB... meaning Russell Wilson would probably be an Eagle.

DAMMIT CAM YOU WERE ONE YARD SHORT

ESPN is reporting that they are super close to a deal.
DeSean hit the club last night with Pierre Garcon and DeAngelo Hall and Wale.
Wale was actually at the RAW show Monday night just before they hit the club, he was in a confrontation with a fan sitting behind him being annoying.

Skip Bayless has officially said if the Redskins sign DeSean Jackson they will win the NFC East for sure.

Easily.

Coming out now that Reggie doesn't like Swag because he is a me first type of player.

Welp, RIP Wedgie, I'm ending you you stupid son of a bitch.

 

[ShaRpY HaRdY]

The Browns are "going hard" with an offer to Jackson.

DJax: #Business1st

[ShaRpY HaRdY]

Jets agreed to terms with WR/KR Jacoby Ford, formerly of the Raiders.

Well I don't like Reggie because he's a "me first" type of owner. Seriously, fuck off with that.

PLEASE DONT GO TO CLEVELAND OH MY GOD.

 

[Varus]

Oh good ol Pres. I love his derogatory comments.

he's making people dance by the minute

 

[ShaRpY HaRdY]

DJax & Washington have been discussing shit all day; idk if they're going to hammer out a deal after all.
I know DJax wants to but I don't think Washington wants to invest.

 

[TheTNHMaster]

Nothing confirmed yet, but rumors are saying that a 3 year deal between the Skins and Swag.

 

[TheTNHMaster]

Gonna take that as a confirmation that it's a done deal.

 

[ShaRpY HaRdY]

Redskins agreed to terms with WR DeSean Jackson, formerly of the Eagles, on a three-year contract.
The Redskins have just $6.5 million in salary-cap space, so the majority of Jackson's 2014 earnings should come in the form of a signing bonus. He's highly unlikely to match or eclipse the $10.7 million he was scheduled to earn from the Eagles. From a fantasy standpoint, it's a mixed landing spot. D-Jax will have a play-making quarterback in Robert Griffin III, but has to contend with another No. 1 receiver in Pierre Garcon. Jackson isn't going to come anywhere close to the 82/1,332/9 line he posted in 2013, and won't be a lock for 1,000 yards. For the Redskins, however, it's a coup for a team that hurt for weapons outside of Garcon and Fred Davis last season. Jay Gruden's offense just got a whole lot better.

Like you say nothing has been confirmed though, but it is highly expected.
