Keim said on his pod, if the ownership issue is resolved, and it most likely will be by then, folks in the building will def want to do Hard Knocks this year, to show how far they’ve come since starting to make all the changes to the org/re-branding.

“You saw it happen with max deals in the NBA.”
How the NFL’s QB market changed this offseason—and teams like the @Commanders, @Buccaneers and @AtlantaFalcons refused to chase good players with great money. https://t.co/AZ98Wbbv4L

The way people are reacting to this Clark and Reese thing, mannn I’m glad y’all can’t hear what’s said on a football field all the time lol. Y’all would think we’re barbaric

Did not see this until now when “Matt in Maryland” called & pointed out — Here was Angel Reese before game (apparently) to #Iowa fans and a 14-year old girl. @team980 https://t.co/5AwUj7Ibdv pic.twitter.com/g6QTPsFqg6

2 days ago ESPN produced a segment called ‘Caitlin Clark: Queen of Clap Backs ’. The focus; her clapping, “You’re down 15 points. Shut up,” and of course the “you can’t see me” hand wave.
Her “trash talk” was embraced and celebrated. It wasn’t stigmatized and pathologized. pic.twitter.com/7Upyw475ze

The Ravens have offered FA WR Odell Beckham Jr a contract, per @AdamSchefter.

One thing that scare me a bit with Darnell Wright – he doesn’t always bring his feet with him. Here you see him against another RD1 NFL talent in Brian Breese. He gets hit with the swim move and holds(but doesn’t get called). He’s not a quick lateral mover and sometimes it shows pic.twitter.com/vFs3atD76W

Darnell Wright up against Carter. You see the “lunge” and loss of balance here again. He needs to consistently bring his lower-half with him. pic.twitter.com/LEB6HkvlqG

The Colts brass will work out Kentucky QB Will Levis on Thursday in Lexington, per sources. Fair amount of travel for Chris Ballard and Shane Steichen this week. https://t.co/a6aV4xKNx0

Update: There are NFL teams that don’t think that QBs Anthony Richardson and Will Levis are first-round picks, per @AlbertBreer

From NFL Now: #UGA DT Jalen Carter is turning down pre-draft visits from teams outside the Top 10, as his agent Drew Rosenhaus is confident that’s where he’s going. If a team trades into the Top 10 before the draft, he would be open to visiting them. pic.twitter.com/kf7iQCN8wO

The NFL needed two more votes for Thursday Night Football to have flex-scheduling.
Among the teams to vote no: Giants, Jets, Bears, Packers, Saints and Steelers, per @AlbertBreer, @peter_king.
The Broncos and Panthers abstained.
The NFL plans on revisiting the topic in May.

Might be the frozen cocktails making me talkative, but there’s never a bad time for some gratitude.
I am forever grateful for every NFL fan who has ever bought a ticket, purchased a jersey or tuned in to a game on TV.
