I presume Culpepper. Unless it turns out Culpepper at third and Lee at second is better.

https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/drake-maye-is-skeptical-of-the-moon-landing Drake Maye thinks the moon landing was fake. It stands to reason that somebody was going to follow in the footsteps of Aaron Rodgers, but I wasn't thinking it would be Maye.

Sounds like Jurgens was getting quite a bit of blame for the poor play on the interior of the Eagles O-line. He'd been playing both LG and Center, It will be interesting to see how it goes in Baltimore. At this point, I'm not sure why anyone would make a meaningful trade with Howie Roseman.

Yeah, and did we ever find out what the 'personal issue' was that kept him out week two?

Maybe the Vikings trade Jennings back to San Francisco, who continue to have injured Wide Receivers? Also, I wonder if Tai Felton will end up with more receptions or tackles in his career. Currently it's Tackles - 9 Receptions - 4.

Yeah, that was a huge bummer. Best team in the league and they get routed both games in the first round.

Why did I get a notification that OBJ is signing with the Vikings? They don't even have targets for Jauan Jennings. Even when Jefferson is out.

Listening to the Pads/Brewers game is awkward. Is it just me or do the other guys in the booth sound embarrassed every time AJ Pierzynski starts rambling?

I like both yet still would trade both. History says the team getting the star player wins this trade just about every time. With a rotation of Gilbert, Lopez, Ryan, Bradley then the Prielipp/Abel/Rojas upside (Kremer if we must), the rotation alone would make the Twins a contender. Then you'd have the giant pile of money Tom Pohlad is promising to get a middle of the order bat to pair with Buxton, Jeffers (yeah, I'm paying him since we're going for it) and the young, but now with some experience core. I'd be looking forward to 2027 more than any season since Target Field opened.

Skeptical the Mariners will finally trade a starter, but he would 100% be my top target.

Unless he practices short hops at first from now until opening day, he doesn't fit on a well rounded and cohesive Twins roster. Therefore I expect him to be in LF opening day.

Burleson absolutely cannot hit left handed pitching, and this organization loves to platoon. I think you'd end up getting a part time player. And if he even takes a minor step back in his ability hitting right handers, he's going to look like a huge bust considering no one likes his defense. And while I'd be happy to take Yandy Diaz (who was DH exclusive this year), the Rays FINALLY got their new stadium approved and the league looks to be installing a salary floor. They're also on the doorstep of a World Series appearance. I don't think we're going to see the old Rays frugal ways again for awhile.

So the Saints gave Ryan Wright 8M guaranteed over two years because the Vikings couldn't afford to pay a guy who can coffin corner every punt he gets his foot on. Meanwhile the Vikings are paying Jauan Jennings 8M for one year to catch 2 passes for 9 yards.

I'd bet a lot of it has to do with the new(ish) replay review process that is both taking away part of their job, and showing them up when they're wrong. Even if the officials aren't going into the games deliberately trying to throw more flags, surely they are internally thinking that throwing more flags is how to demonstrate how valuable they are.

I would trade Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz straight up for Bijan. I'd even throw in Brosmer to close the deal.
