For a 7th rounder

Does he have a bad contract or something? Seems like a great addition for Denver

I also like the Broncos adding A.J. Bouye for a 4th

He had a bit of an off year but probably the Titans best sack threat, the 7th rounder seems like an insult but good for the Broncs!

The fact that Elway wanted him is probably a good sign for Titans fans.

ESPN Stats & Info
@ESPNStatsInfo
22 running backs were taken in the 2015 NFL Draft.

After Todd Gurley was released by the Rams today, not a single one of them is still with the team that selected them.

What have Mariota and Winston accomplished in the NFL? How can a guys ceiling be a player who is worse than he is? What are you even talking about?

I'd imagine Teunisky is still the week 1 starter. Foles is junk and this trade was junk

For the record the Patriots drafted a designated long snapper in that draft who is still on their roster right now. Running backs should maybe be exempt from the rookie wage scale because once their rookie deals are up most of them are already in decline.

to be fair, that draft seems to be an outlier anyway. Look at the top 10 picks, the only one who's still with his original team is Brandon Scherff (on the franchise tag).

Adam Schefter
@AdamSchefter

Tom Brady's contract details with Tampa, sources tell ESPN: 2 years, $50 million deal, all guaranteed, that also includes another $9 million in incentives - $4.5 million in incentives per year. The contract also prohibits and trades.

Steelers are signing Eric Ebron, hell yeah. TE position was a huge problem last year, great to see it addressed.

meh, 2 years and 16m is not that bad. Gordon/Lindsay is going to be a strong tandem.

I have an innate hatred of Wisconsin running backs. Don’t trust them. They’re like WR from Michigan or QB from ohio state.

Melvin really held out, lost his money to Eckler, then he had to settle for $13 million guaranteed to be outplayed by Lindsay and cut again next offseason. Hilarious really.

Foles has done more than Trubisky. Just saying. Trubisky is trash. Not sure why you're so insane about Bears QBs. I remember you making excuses all over the place when Cutler was their QB too.

No kidding. Is there a team in the NFL that would offer him a starting job if he was available at the beginning of UFA? Not a chance.

still crazy to think that the Bears even traded up from 3 to 2 to get him. 49ers used one of the picks they got to draft Fred Warner, and another turned into Dante Pettis and another allowed them to trade up and get Reuben Foster. Pettis hasn't done all that much so far, but Warner has been great for them and imagine if Foster had at least half a brain ...

so, I get the Bears fans' sensitivity. Not only did their team pick Trubisky over Mahomes and Watson, they even traded up and threw away a few more good picks and Trubisky hasn't even developed into a half-decent starter yet (and it's not even close). That's gotta sting.

Picking Trubisky over Mahomes is pure hindsight, no one was out there saying Mahomes will be a potential GOAT at draft time (most guys were saying he was a project). But drafting Trubisky over Watson is pretty much unforgivable, Trubisky did dick all in college and all Watson did was beat the Bama machine for a title. I think the moral of the story though is most NFL teams are pretty poor at evaluating QBs, ironic since it's the most valuable position in all of sports.

Sorry if I’ve missed but why did Brady want to leave New England?
