Wow, finally had a taste of winning and goes back to perpetual losing?!

Good luck, Tru, thanks for the memories. Also, thanks for not going to a division rival.

But $15 mil a year? :shocking:

Wow. Peters and Talib are still cheaper than that.

Bring on those 3rd round comp picks.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Perpetual losing? Are you actually criticizing a team that was smart enough to re-sign and promise Josh McCown that he'd be their 2018 starter during the best QB market in years (if not ever)?

There's always next year or the year after that.

Tru will be reuniting with former Rams coach Dennard Wilson.

hearing Teddy Bridgewater close to finalizing a deal with the Jets also

Did anyone hear the Michael Irvin Rant about the Vikings letting Bridgewater walk away and sign Kirk Cousins who wasn't any better. His case in point was Career record.

This was right after Irvin's prediction that his "Brother" Lamar Jackson would be the best rookie QB of 2018.

Bridgewater's two full years
14TD 9int 3200 yards 88.7 rating
14TD's 12int 2919 yards 85.2 rating

Kirk Cousins last three years:
29TD -11int 4166 yards 101.6 rating
25TD - 12int 4917 yards 97.2 rating
27TD - 13int 4093 yards 93.9 rating

Irvin is turning in to Steven A. Smith. Its concerning.

No one in their right mind would look at each QB's Body of work and conclude that Bridgewater was as effective as Cousins has been. Or to make this some kind of race issue.

There is no hidden agenda folks. Teams are trying to win football games and are going to pay the guys that give them the best chance.

 

[tempests]

This is pure speculation but notice both Sammy and Johnson went to the highest bidders and not the better teams.
Jets are a .500 team and who knows with KC, playing a first year starter at QB. Could be a total crap show there.

Point is both of these dudes are only playing for the money and not the love of the game.

Got to believe that an NFL player is going to bring confidence that he can help his new team win.

Agree with you 100%

Trumaine Johnson's five-year deal with Jets reportedly worth $72.5 million

After being franchise tagged by the Rams in each of the past two offseasons, Trumaine Johnson has finally been granted the freedom to pursue a long-term contract with a new team. On Tuesday, Johnson -- the top available free agent at cornerback -- found his new home.

Earlier on Tuesday, the Titans handed Malcolm Butler a five-year deal valued at more than $61 million, so Johnson's contract is worth more per year. A decent comparison might end up being Josh Norman's deal. When the Redskins signed Norman in 2016, they gave him $75 million over five years.

It was expensive, but the Jets just bought a legitimate CB1. Since 2015, Johnson's collected 10 interceptions and 41 pass breakups. In 2015, he allowed a 55.0 passer rating in coverage, which ranked second among qualified cornerbacks, according to Pro Football Focus. He surrendered higher passer ratings in the following seasons (89.4 in 2016 and 79.8 in 2017), but maintained his status as an elite cornerback, which is why the Rams kept franchise-tagging him until it got to the point where they had to let him test free agency. As expected, he eventually got the long-term deal he desired. He checked in at No. 4 on Pete Prisco's free agent rankings.

Johnson is a nice consolation prize for the rebuilding Jets, who saw free agency begin with Kirk Cousins spurning them for the Vikings. The Jets have since responded by bringing back bridge quarterback Josh McCown on a one-year deal, signing running Isaiah Crowell to a three-year deal, and now securing the best cornerback available -- a deal that might not have been able to happen if Cousins had chosen to sign with the Jets.

The McCown deal doesn't deserve much -- if any -- praise, but getting an explosive 25-year-old running back with potential and a 28-year-old CB1 in one day should manufacture some excitement within the Jets' building. Those are pieces that should play a role once the Jets' rebuild is completed. Now, they desperately need to identify their quarterback of the future, which will most likely happen via the draft.

I don’t agree with this at all. They ARE STILL PLAYING THE GAME THAT THEY LOVE! They made the right biz decision to make more money as they have to take the risks of THEIR health and financial responsibility of their lives and their family. Maybe they personally even like Kansas City and New York better than LA. Who knows they may have family there. Just because they leave the team WE like doesn’t mean they lost love for the game. They have a small window of opportunity to make a lot of money ( avg 5 years) and if I was advising them, they should make as much money as they can!
