The full breakdown of Brock Purdy’s $265 million contract are in via Mike Florio of PFT which gives us the opportunity to a more thorough look at the contract and see how it really compares with the other players earning somewhere in the ballpark of $50 to $55 million per year.

In a pretty stunning turn of events Saints QB Derek Carr has decided to retire from the NFL and in the process give up $30 million which was already guaranteed to him for the year. Carr was suffering from a shoulder injury and would have had to undergo whatever surgeries and rehab needed to comply with his contract but now he should be free to simply follow his own timeline for whatever medical procedures he may or may not need.

What a wild ride for the Saints and Carr. Not sure Ive seen a player walk away from that much which was already locked in for him for the year.

Value wise thats a good trade for the #Cowboys, far better than the last wacky WR trade. Must not have been much of a market. Even if they dont get a deal done long term odds are they would get a solid comp pick back and Dallas rarely signs FAs so its a much safer bet than most

Not sure if Pickens will be thrilled with being locked in as a 2nd to Lamb.
