Cause he's had to catch passes from Justin Fields.  He looked pretty damn good when Dalton was throwing him the ball in 2021.

Didn't seem to bother DJ Moore who had career highs last season.

At least we didn't do this. 

They are going all in. They have about 2 seasons to make it out of the nfcs before Blank blows it up. That old geezer wants a SB win before he croaks.

DJ has a ton of experience masking bad QB play from his time with the Panthers.  He's always among the league leaders in YAC; last year was no exception.  I don't think it's fair to hold Mooney to the same standards, which is reflected in his contract compared to DJ's.

Dionte Johnson and 240 for Donte and 178

I'm wondering if this had something to do with the urgency to get something for Brian Burns:

If they end up releasing Bosa (that saves them $47 mil over 2 years, wow), that could be interesting. 

He's getting up there in age and coming off injuries, but could hit a second life at 28 for 4-5 more years...just needs to move past the injuries.  Not my top pick, but it'll be interesting to see what happens in LA today.

Those top 5--all QBs who are either past their primes or underperforming--makes me so Happy that we did not land Watson.

I would say Matt Stafford has very much played to his contract - dude is awesome, though definitely on the tail end of his career.

It's gonna be Mike Williams. He's a good WR2 when he's not banged up, but he's also coming off major injury and you can't pay that kind of cash to a guy that hasn't been able to take full speed contact yet. Add in Allen is Herbert's favorite target by a mile and it should make that choice even easier.

You nailed it.
