Sorry should have been clearer.He gets a chance this pre season to be named in the 52 man roster I thought and if he doesn’t he is automatically signed to the practice squad for the year. Similar to what Alex Gray did at the Falcons.
Had to do it, they'd only end up franchise tagging him if they didn't come to an agreement anyway.Russell W gets paid, easiest decision that franchise has ever had to make surely.

Plenty rumouring a move for Haskins also, can't say I'm overly sold on what I've seen of him. Worry about holding out till next year is that there's probably 6-8 teams with the same attitude, if the skins see something they like this year there's a chance they'll try and jump the gun and avoid throwing all in next year.Still keep seeing Skins linked with Jones. QB draft is thin in that middle area and Jones really isn't a 1st round pick normally.
Think the Manning connection being completely over-hyped. Cutliffe also sent sent some right duds into NFL.
Particularly as Smith probably back for next season.
But if Cards draft Murray do Skins take a run at Rosen? Possibly for a 3rd round pick - would certainly reshape entire Skins draft. Rosen certainly better than Jones.
Good somebody else not sold on Haskins. Where contract extensions are lining up not sure how many teams are going to be chasing 1st round QBs next year (apart from the sides being linked this year).Plenty rumouring a move for Haskins also, can't say I'm overly sold on what I've seen of him.

I tend to stay up to see who WAS take first, enjoyed last year as nobody really had a feel for what the Browns would do, this year I'd be massively surprised if it varies from Murray, Bosa, WilliamsNot a fan of Jones from what I've seen. Much rather go for Grier or hope Haskins drops.
Rosen I would be massively sold on, especially at a 3rd rounder considering we have two of them anyway.
Anybody staying up to watch it? I'm not sleeping well at the moment anyway so perfect timing.
Grier is a big number college QB (in a poor defensive conference) that would need a lot of work. Plenty of nice things about him though.Not a fan of Jones from what I've seen. Much rather go for Grier or hope Haskins drops.

Problem with day one of the draft it takes so long and only 1st round completed. As draft moves on speeds up nicely.
Starts about 2 am so 1st pick could be around 3.
Bosa and Williams going to be huge. Williams generally considered best player in draft - being compared with Donald already. Ironic at 6'3 and 300 lbs not considered to have the physical traits but is so quick. Saw him a lot last season.I tend to stay up to see who WAS take first, enjoyed last year as nobody really had a feel for what the Browns would do, this year I'd be massively surprised if it varies from Murray, Bosa, Williams
my bad didn't realize it was on EDT not local CDT. So 1 start but don't how much guff there will be before 1st pick.I thought it was kicking off at 1?
I'm hoping Giants take Jones due to the obvious connections.
Someone trading us for him would be ideal. Take a low 1st with a 3rd or something. Package up two thirds or a 2 and a 3 for Rosen and still be left with a first 1/2 2nd and 1/2 3rd.Get the feeling Haskins will drop, could see him fall to the Redskins, in which case I think we'd take a shot with him and I wouldn't mind, just don't want just selling our soul to go up and get him.
If he starts to drop we may even see a potential trade with those lower down to come up and get him.
Don't see him and Bellichick getting on - really contrasting personalities.Don't think we'll be the only ones in the market for Rosen and can't see a deal before the drafts done so will be next years picks.
The is a pocket passer so may be the perfect understudy in Pittsburgh or New England.
He's a better prospect than Jones.Completely forgot about Lock too. Wonder where he'll end up.

Don't think Cards draft Murray without a Rosen plan in place. Goes past draft and teams will sort out QBs through that. Then Rosen has little more than a 5th round value in next year's draft as he'll probably be a back up to the likes of Manning or Ryan
May all just be a giant bluff and they trade down. Certainly need to restock elsewhere.
Completely forgot about Lock too. Wonder where he'll end up.
Not completely sold on him but our man now. Much happier picking him up at 15 than the rumoured trade though. Stayed up for a bit and laughed my ass off when giants selected Jones.
Managing to snag Sweat is good too. Although I feel we have more pressing issues that D line is going to be a beast
Feel for Rosen though. Anywhere he ends up will he backup now. This is where the system in NFL is unfair. He didn’t ask to be drafted by a batshit organisation who get rid of everyone a few months later and decide they don’t want him only to ask too high a price. Maybe backing up Fitzmagic for a year in Miami?
Yep, agree. Really poor GM work by Steve Keim. In that position you need to have a longer term plan for the team and having a new head coach each year and giving them exactly what they want is just going to lead to chaos. It looks as though Arians was keeping everything together there any nobody else knows what's going on.Sweat would have been a higher pick (top 10) if not for the heart issues.
Gotta feel the cards have made a bit of a mess with the QB situation. 2 of the biggest QB needy teams drafted one. No need to give up a 2nd round pick for him as he's going nowhere fast. Maybe someone (Miami) offers a 3rd but could just keep falling in value. Only other option is for them to hope someone gets injured in pre-season and he's tradeable then - but that's really desperate management. Also there's still a great QB class coming next year - maybe 5 or 6 1st round talents. Mami still going to struggle this season so just wait for the opportunity to maybe get Lawrence (who is better than Murray and Rosen)
GM (a poor one who already gave up 2 picks to move up for Rosen last year) gave Rosen nothing to protect him or work with last season. Kept him in the dark as to what was going on. Going to be a difficult situation.
Wonder whether the new coach's "obsession" with Murray has left them a bit blinkered.
Jones situation bit like Murray's - blinkered. Obviously Giants decided they wanted him no matter what. Jones isn't a 1st round pick let alone 6th.
