Five draft picks for a WR is a massive L for Miami.

It would make sense if they were one WR away from a Super Bowl. But they aren’t.

College football has been producing a lot of good WRs. The league is trending in that direction. I don’t blame the Chiefs here. Makes them worse, but the Dolphins just gave the Chiefs additional picks to use on rookie deals.. thanks, dipshits.

Wildest off-season I can remember. Curious how KC addresses #1WR. They already signed Juju. Maybe they just roll with him. OBJ perhaps?

To compound things for the Dolphins, what could possibly go wrong for Tyreek Hill hanging out all the time in South Beach? The only worse combination imaginable would be him in Vegas.

It never ceases to amaze me how much money stupid, stupid people get paid to do these dumb things.

Deshaun Watson signed last March a record-setting $230 million contract with the Cleveland Browns. It is a fully-guaranteed deal that could pose problems for Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert and other quarterbacks according to NFL reporter Peter King. The issue, King suggests, is due to the Bengals and Chargers have less "liquidity" than the Browns, who get a 1-year break from Watson's full deal since the NFL's guaranteed money total for Cleveland for the 2022 season came before the acquisition was completed.

King says the NFL will make the Browns put the remaining four years of Watson's deal — approximately $184 million — in escrow to cover the rest of the contract. For the Bengals, Chargers and others, they don't have that level of upfront money for individual mega contracts since owners run family businesses and reap profits annually.

"The guarantee for Watson stunned GMs and club presidents — I can tell you that," King wrote Monday. "Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ contract is 19-percent guaranteed. Buffalo QB Josh Allen’s is 39-percent guaranteed. It’s likely that when it comes time for Burrow or Herbert to do a new deal (they’re eligible after the 2022 season), the teams will argue that Watson’s deal is a one-off and they can’t do that. But contracts always get piggybacked. Agents and players will certainly try to continue the fully guaranteed trend."

Baltimore Ravens owner Steve Biscotti, who has a decision to make with quarterback Lamar Jackson, was one of the NFL's first to openly question Watson's new deal.

“I don’t know that he should’ve been the first guy to get a fully-guaranteed contract,” Biscotti said, via ProFootballTalk. “To me, that’s something that is groundbreaking, and it’ll make negotiations harder with others.”
