Rumor NFL Free Agency Rumors

I see everyone’s reasoning, but Bortles absolutely sucks ass

 

He wanted $15M/yr. With how deep the draft is at WR, nobody is willing to pay that. Can't say I blame them, no way he's worth that much.

As for Bortles, I'd be okay with him on the cheap. He has had the odd good game, more than the rest of backup caliber guys out there. For a game or 2, he could be fine. If he needs to play more than that, this team wasn't going far anyway.

 

Well he has only played against scrubs so we really don’t know if he is good or bad.

 

And NINE were drafted in the first two rounds last year. Two straight deep and talented WR classes doesn’t bode well for higher priced FA WRs.

 

Melvin Gordon to the Broncos..

Gordon and Gurley both with new teams. I remember these 2 backs in college. I thought they were going to be absolute studs in the NFL.

 

To be fair, they were game changing studs before injuries slowed them down.

 

True, but man did they both fall off fast.

 

Gordon was solid last year when he played no?

 

Ah, nothing special. Gordon has cracked 1,000 yards (1,105) once in his 5 year career. Had 600+ yards last year in 12 games.

Based on how he looked in college, he goes on the underachiever ranks for me.

 

He was pretty dang good from 2016-2018, averaging over 100 scrimmage per game. But he's missed about games/year aside from 2017. Definitely not worthy of a 1st round pick.
