With NFL free agency winding down we are starting to see less and less players sign to new teams as teams have spent the last of their cap space ahead of the NFL draft in the coming months. Let’s go through the biggest signings and whatnot over the last 24 hours.

        First off we had superstar right tackle Lane Johnson sign a one year $33 million dollar extension to stay with the Philadelphia Eagles through the 2026 season. This one year deal is also giving Johnson $30 million fully guaranteed and will keep him in Philadelphia for the foreseeable future.

        We also had another player sign with the Eagles and that was free agent safety Terrell Edmunds who signed a one year worth over five million and will sure up the Eagles secondary after star safety C.J Garnerer-Johnson left to join the Detroit Lions.

        Next up we had wide receiver DJ Chark join the Carolina Panthers on a one year deal with the compensation still disclosed. Chark will join a loaded skill position group in Carolina where the Panthers traded away star receiver D.J Moore and have since been adding veteran players in Adam Thielen, Miles Sanders and Hayden Hurst.

Lastly we had the Baltimore Ravens add veteran wide receiver Nelson Agholor who signed a one year $3.25 million dollar contract, Agholor will now be headed to Baltimore as he is joining a AFC rival in the Ravens, with Baltimore being wide receiver needy this was a big get for the AFC contender.

The New York Jets have officially traded wide receiver Elijah Moore to the Cleveland Browns, the details of this trade is the Browns receive receiver Elijah Moore and a 2023 third round pick and the Jets will receive a 2023 second round pick.

        This is a great deal for the Browns as Moore is very capable of being a number two receiver to star Amari Cooper, Moore was one of the top prospects in the 2021 NFL draft as he was the No 34 overall pick taken by the Jets. Coming out of college Moore had unlimited potential as he was one of the top receivers taken in the draft but after a slew of bad quarterback play and a lack of touches on the field Moore was fed up and requested a trade from the team last year.

With the Jets adding another wide receiver in Mecole Hardman from the Chiefs it was a no brainer that the Jets were going to move off of Elijah. This will now clear $1.47 million in cap space for the Jets and will give the Browns another top target for Deshaun Watson next season. The Browns now have the 74th overall pick as the Jets traded up to No 42 in this years draft.

The New York Jets have added another wide receiver to their already impressive lineup of receivers on the offensive end, the Jets have signed free agent Mecole Hardman to a one year deal. Hardman will join a very deep receiver core of Garrett Wilson, Elijah Moore, Denzel Mims, Corey Davis and newly added Allen Lazard, this gives the Jets another set of hands and a much needed deep threat on offense in which Hardman was utilized for the last couple years in Kansas City.

        With Hardman being one of the top deep  threats in the NFL this will add another dimension to the Jets offense in which they haven’t had for the last couple years, with all the news and reports surrounding Aaron Rodgers joining the Jets this should give him another reason to join the already loaded skill position group in New York.

        This is a buy low type of deal for the Jets as Hardman missed most of the year with a pelvic injury that limited Mecole to a handful of games and another injury in the Super Bowl limited Hardman’s market as he has had trouble staying healthy in the last couple seasons.

With the Jets having possibly the deepest skill position group in the NFL they make look to move off of wide receiver Elijah Moore as they try to trade for superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Moore did request a trade last season but the Jets didn’t seem to shop Moore so he will now be available again possibly.

With NFL free agency winding down we are starting to see less and less players sign to new teams as teams have spent the last of their cap space ahead of the NFL draft in the coming months. Let’s go through the biggest signings and whatnot over the last 24 hours.

        First off we have a retirement in three time Super Bowl champion Dont’a Hightower, Hightower was one of the top and most underrated linebackers in the league for a long time and will now make his case for the hall of fame. After Hightower was released by the Patriots last season it was clear that Hightower didn’t have the same level of play as he once did.

        The Dallas Cowboys are adding running back depth by signing Ronald Jones to a one year deal, Jones was a key player on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for his first couple years in the league and since then has played for the Kansas City Chiefs and now the Dallas Cowboys.

Cam Newton is looking to return to action as he is throwing at Auburn’s pro day on Tuesday, Newton who is 33 is looking to make a comeback to the NFL and be a starting quarterback for a team, Cam released a video on social media saying “ain’t 32 motherf—— better than me,” likely alluding to his belief that he’s still good enough to be a starting quarterback on one of the NFL’s 32 squads.

With NFL free agency winding down we are starting to see less and less players sign to new teams as teams have spent the last of their cap space ahead of the NFL draft in the coming months. Let’s go through the biggest signings and whatnot over the last 24 hours.

        First off the Miami Dolphins have officially picked up the fifth year option on quarterback Tua Tagovaila’s contract as he is likely to be the Fins quarterback for the next two seasons. This option was reportedly picked up early last week but the Dolphins made it official today.

        Next up we have the Las Vegas Raiders signing free agent tight end O.J Howard to a one year deal, the Raiders needed more depth at the tight end position as they traded superstar Darren Waller away to the Giants last week. Howard is a pretty good signing and will add another pair of hands to catch.

        Possibly the biggest signing of the weekend is star safety C.J Gardener-Johnson who is joining the Detroit Lions on a one year $8 million dollar deal. C.J was offered a three year deal with the Eagles for $8 million also but the details and guaranteed money was not what C.J was looking for, Gardener-Johnson is betting on himself with this deal and will look to sign a massive contract next offseason.

Star wide receiver Adam Thielen is joining a NFC rival in the Carolina Panthers, Theilen is joining the Panthers on a three year deal for an undisclosed amount per year. Thielen will be working with a new rookie quarterback and a whole new staff as the lifelong Viking is looking to end his career in Carolina.

The Houston Texans have made some franchise changing decisions on Sunday morning. The Texans made two moves with arguably their top two players and both of them on offense in star left tackle Laremy Tunsil and wide receiver Brandin Cooks. 

        First off let’s start with superstar left tackle Laremy Tunsil who was resigned by the Texans making Tunsil the highest paid offensive lineman in NFL history on a per year basis. Tunsil signed a three year extension with Houston that is worth up to $75 million dollars and that includes $50 million fully guaranteed. This is a no brainer for the Texans as Tunsil is a top three left tackle in the NFL today.

Brandin Cooks is now being traded for the fourth time in his career and will now be headed right down the road to the Dallas Cowboys. Cooks who is 29 is looking to play for a Super Bowl contender as Cooks has been playing for arguably the worst team in the NFL over the last three years. Cooks is being traded to the Cowboys for a 2023 fifth round pick and a 2024 sixth round pick.

With the NFL free agency window in day 5 we had a few big signings and player signings/trades and teams breaking the bank to sure up their teams to make a Super Bowl run. With over sixty players already signed we’ll go over the top three teams that have made the best and biggest moves thus far.

        First off we had Cincinnati Bengals offensive tackle Jonah Williams request a trade from the organization shortly after the Bengals signed free agent tackle Orlando Brown Jr to a multi year deal. Williams is one of the better left tackles in the league and will left a decent salary on the open market.

        The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have released multiple players today in running back Leonard Fournette and tight end Cameron Brate who were both huge contributors to the Buccaneers 2021 Super Bowl win, both are expected to have limited markets.

The New England Patriots have made some moves as they’ve signed tight end Mike Gesicki to a one year $9 million dollar deal to pair with tight end Hunter Henry and newly signed JuJu Smith-Schuster. The Patriots also cut cornerback Jalen Mills who was on the Patriots for the last two seasons, this now clears $5 million in cap space for the Pats.

With the NFL free agency window in day 3 we had a few big signings and player signings/trades and teams breaking the bank to sure up their teams to make a Super Bowl run. With over sixty players already signed we’ll go over the top three teams that have made the best and biggest moves thus far.

        First off we had the Minnesota Vikings and all pro strong safety Harrison Smith restructure his deal to stay with the team, Smith will now make $8 million dollars and a extra $2 million in incentives. 

        Secondly we had all pro cornerback Darius Slay get cut with the Philadelphia Eagles and then resign with the club later that same evening on Wednesday after all day discussions went on between the all pro and the Eagles GM. 

        Next up we had the Pittsburgh Steelers release middle linebacker Myles Jack after just one season. Jack signed with the Steelers last offseason after being cut with the Jacksonville Jaguars but will now hit free agency once again. 

        Lastly the Cincinnati Bengals are signing pro bowl tackle Orlando Brown Jr to a four year $64 million dollar contract. The Bengals steal one of the best tackles in the league as Brown Jr couldn’t reach a contract agreement with the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. 

Aaron Rodgers has made his decision! Rodgers is planning to play for the New York Jets in 2023 as long as the two sides agree to financial and trade compensation. Rodgers went on the Pat McAfee Show on Wednesday afternoon stating, “At this point as I sit here, I think since Friday I’ve made it clear that my intention was to play and my intention was to play for the New York Jets,” 

        Rodgers also stated that he had some tough decisions to make this offseason about playing and if he did want to play where was it going to be. Aaron also talked about the darkness retreat he went on and said “I gotta admit I went into the darkness 90 percent retiring, 10 percent playing,” Rodgers said. “That’s where my mind was, my mind was ‘I’m tired of this.’ I hadn’t gotten back in my workouts yet, and I thought that’s what was best for me. So I went into the darkness, and I contemplated a lot of different things, but one day I spent entirely on the reality I was retired, and one I spent on the reality that I was coming back and playing.

        “And I just sat with that for hours and hours, what that looked like, what the reality is, how that all felt, and when I came out I was really interested in what the landscape was, where Green Bay was at, and if I wanted to play what the options were.”

Rodgers is now returning for his 19th season in the NFL but instead of playing for the Green Bay Packers it will be for another team in green, the New York Jets.
