Like Higgins in Cincy, expect SF to tag him to then trade him. No different than the Chiefs tagging their CB to get a 3rd round pick. Despite that being the likely comp pick, but Titans are not really a PO team, so that's about 16-20 or so extra spots in the draft for them.

With the money that is being tossed around for QBs, SF will have to make some decisions. One of Deebo/Aiyuk won't be around in 2025.

You’re gonna sign him if you trade for him anyways.

Deebo tried to get out and got a deal instead. Let it play out.

You get Aiyuk's frustration, with 4 years in the league he's shown enough to get paid. Just tough for him since SF paid Deebo and are trying to figure out a way out of his deal.

Deebo is a $15 mill dead cap charge in 2025 if he doesn't return via a trade or cut. $9.2 mill of signing bonus and $5.5 mill in option bonuses remaining to be prorated after 2024 season.

With so many WR coming into the NFL, have to decide who are the elite WR to pay and which ones you move on from and replace via the draft.

Panthers and Jaguars getting new stadium renovations.







The 2-time defending and 3 out of 5 champion Kansas City Chiefs could not.

Jaguars will have to play elsewhere in 2027, I’ve heard Gainesville floated.

maybe Wembley?

I had thought that, but I know they’ve been looking at Gainesville. I bet the NFL would like them to try that, but London doesn’t have the facilities and amenities that all the teams have, and that they must have. Then you’re talking about whisking everyone away from families for 5-7 months.

Jax would move. Could car cross the state line to South Carolina for a stadium?
KC not sure why they went in with the royals but the threat of going to the KS side of the border may be what gets them their funding.

If your team is in a smaller market the team would move. And if you are close enough to the state border might be able to threaten crossing it.

Kansas City is actually in both states, South Carolina has the greater Charlotte area but not Charlotte proper. The South Carolina counties don't even combine for the size of the largest in the area whereas the greater Kansas City area's Kansas half combines to be roughly the same. This isn't comparable.

It's not like the 49ers would trade him anyways. They want to win now, the deadline for any deal to pass was this draft.

Cobb, family 'lucky to be alive' after house fire

Wide receiver Randall Cobb and his family escaped a fire at their Nashville, Tennessee, home this week.

www.espn.com

We got out of the house with nothing but the clothes on our back and no shoes on our feet," she wrote.

The Cobbs have three young sons.

Randall Cobb, in a joint statement posted to Instagram with his wife Wednesday, wrote that he was able to go back into the house and rescue the family's dog, Louie.


Cobb thanked the Nashville Fire Department "for their swift action."

"I can't get the image of the brave firefighter getting into position out of my head; he didn't even have water to shoot yet. I truly thought the cars were going to explode and that we would lose him to this tragedy. He is a true hero," Cobb wrote.
