Seriously, who has ever heard of the Eagles winning a Super Bowl anyway?
Also, is Kaep going to buy the Green Bay defense a fancy steak dinner with his new money? It's the least he could do.

Wow that's going to hurt.
Most of those guys are not going to demand high contracts outside of Crabtree dude. Most are also middle of the road players. There's no Justin Smith or Staley on there. Gore should be ready to retire after this season, as sad to say that might be. I'd like to keep Hunter, but we got options if he wants to much.
Theyre fucked.

Do they have a million draft picks next year too?

Lol no. He had an ok year but guards aren't on the top of our list
Bullshit. Matthew Stafford took over the worst team in NFL history at the age of 21, has made the Detroit Lions relevant, smashed tons of statistical records before the age of 25 and has been quarterbacking one of the best offenses these last 3 seasons with barely any help outside of Megatron (who gets double teamed every play anyway).
Give Stafford a decent #2 receiver and he'll put up 2011 like numbers. A bad Matthew Stafford season last year had him at a total of 31 TDs and 4,700 Passing Yards with his receivers leading the league in drops by far.
It's like your boy Steve Young said: "Matthew Stafford is on the cusp of greatness". Anyone who knows QB play, and has seen Stafford play throughout his young career knows that Stafford is a hell of a pocket passing QB.
Keep telling yourself that. Kap money plus 30% since Wilson won a Superbowl. No such things as hometown discounts BTW.

What's his playoff record?

A decent #2? YOU HAVE CALVIN FUCKING JOHNSON AND ARE MAKING EXCUSES!!!!!!
They are plenty happy letting most of those guys go. Culliver will be the top priority to resign out of that list. The trick will be if Aldon turns things around how they are going to sign him.
A young all-pro guard. After watching what Romo had to go through between seasons 2009-2012, seeing your quarterback go through an o-line rebuild is not pretty.
So what if thats our only option? Like I said, he gets double/triple teamed because he has had no one to take pressure off of him since Titus Young and Nate Burleson were relevant in 2011. That just so happened to be the year Stafford dropped 5,000 yards, 41 TDs and 16 INTs at the age of 23. Kaep can never, and will never, produce a season like that because he isn't as good of a Quarterback as Stafford is. Sure he had that decent read option year, and can run for a first down here and there but he is not a QB you build your team around.
Whether its Drew Brees in New Orleans or Peyton in Denver, those offensive powerhouse teams have numerous weapons at wide receiver. Stafford has made our offense a Top 5 these past two years with a horrible WR core (outside of Megatron of course).
Ok. Lets just wait and see shall we?
Remember his agent was the one who wanted to restructure after his rookie season.

So this is what Stockholm Syndrome looks like.
How does it feel knowing that your team not only wasted the prime and career of the greatest running back ever, but that they're also doing (and in a few years will have done) the same to the greatest wide receiver ever?
I feel like almost all of those wins came against the Packers. Let me know when Kap and company beat another team in the playoffs!
Pfft, the only reason players go to your team is because they fork over the cash.

Fact. Tom Brady ranked 2nd in the league with 53 dropped passes, behind only Matthew Stafford with 58.
By far is a bit much, friend Kas.
Holy shit

I guess beating cam and Matt Ryan in the playoffs isn't anything to be proud of either :/
Oh well!
God DAMN at that Kap deal. Man, if you're really gonna pay a guy that money...you better be 1000% sure he's the guy going forward. Kap has been very good for the Niners, especially in the playoffs, but now they're locked into him.
I don't hate the Niners so I hope he does well, but that contract is gonna put a lot of responsibility on his shoulders.

An agent trying to get his client (and thus himself) more money? This guy is clearly different from the other agents.
You really think they're going to pay Russell more than what future HoFers like Brady/Brees/Manning etc. are making?

And Brady isn't even a top 5 qb either,

Lol a good deal of those guys we just picked up. Only iupati, Crabtree and gay hater matter here. The rest range from depth players to old to training camp fodder. Our depth will obviously be hurt going forward
I think he'll be paid very handsomely, and on a level similar to the top QBs in the league, but I don't think it'll be a ridiculous contract that goes above and beyond everyone else in the league.
Oooooo burn. Such an intimidating comment. Free agents go where they get paid the most! I'm shocked!
Maybe we should just pass out free PEDs.
Plinko
Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
I'll bash Stafford all day, but the defense has been horrid for the last decade. Stafford doesn't play defense (although he'd make a good NT on a goalline formation).
I am sure that 100 million is going to motivate him to get over the hump.
Isn't that how it works? Getting rich and having an abundance of bitches handed to you despite not reaching your goals?
Did Cushing retire or something?

For comparison, Baltimore's free agents after this season:
DB Omar Brown
LB Josh Bynes
RB Shaun Chapas
DL Terrence Cody
C Morgan Cox
TE Owen Daniels
RB Justin Forsett
LB Adrian Hamilton
DB Anthony Levine
LB Pernell McPhee
DB Jeromy Miles
G Will Rackley
G Jah Reid
C AQ Shipley
WR Torrey Smith
DB Darian Stewart
TE Phillip Supernaw
QB Tyrod Taylor
WR Deonte Thompson
DB Brynden Trawick
K Justin Tucker
WR LaQuan Williams
What I'm saying is get the fuck ready for another Flacco ring and more amazingness from Justin Tucker. Don't worry, the train's still boarding passengers.
