Aaron Donald has to be thinking about a one-year comeback for a potential run at a Super Bowl after the Myles Garrett trade.

[Derek Tate @DerekTateNFL]

@FantasyKash I think Kollmann didn't have Kyle Hamilton being selected in his first round mock draft back in 2022. I remembered being a bit confused by it lol.

Consider me intrigued from a fantasy football lens by Keaton Mitchell joining forces with Mike McDaniel in Los Angeles.

Mitchell won’t see anywhere near the volume De’Von Achane did in this scheme, but i imagine McDaniel is going to find creative ways to get him touches.

[Derek Tate @DerekTateNFL]

Why sign Kenneth Gainwell to a market value contract if you are going to bring back Sean Tucker?

Tucker being the Bucs RB2 behind Bucky Irving made plenty of sense.

To me, adding Gainwell was a luxury signing at a position that shouldn’t have been an offseason priority.

[Rick Stroud @NFLSTROUD]

Bucs are tendering Sean Tucker on a one year deal as a restricted free agent.

I’m preparing myself that Joey Bosa will be the Bucs addition at edge this offseason.

Bucs new DL coach, Marcus West, spent last year in Buffalo with Bosa.

Hendrickson wouldn’t do a short term deal, but I could 100% see Bosa doing one.

[Derek Tate @DerekTateNFL]

@NFLSTROUD No need to be reckless. Any team must do their diligence on medicals. A meniscus surgery is not exactly a career ender.

Maxx Crosby is worth two 1sts, if his recovery is on schedule.

I just feel Licht/Bowles don’t believe we are an elite edge away from a Super Bowl run.

[Derek Tate @DerekTateNFL]

Read the room.

Mike Evans publicly dumps us.
The pass rusher market dries up.
Free agency officially begins later today…

And we post about our mediocre picks in the 2026 NFL Draft after last seasons’ collapse?

The Bucs trading for Maxx Crosby feels like a pipe dream.

Maybe Jason Licht works it out with Spytek, but I doubt it given his track record of not trading picks.

The likelihood of going edge at No. 15 overall or a middling deal for Joey Bosa feels inevitable.

[Greg Auman @gregauman]

I don't expect the Bucs to trade for Crosby. Having said that:

-- very real positional need
-- money available from Evans leaving
-- relationship with Spytek

It'll come down to which team's doctors sign off on his knee and how close to two 1s they can offer Vegas.

[Derek Tate @DerekTateNFL]

Is anyone else concerned about De’Von Achane’s PPR pass catching production taking a nose dive with Malik Willis under center?

[Derek Tate @DerekTateNFL]

@JoshNorris Well deserved. Congrats brother.

[Derek Tate @DerekTateNFL]

@AlfredoABrown @FSGAtweets Congrats Alfredo!

Seattle’s defense put on a MASTERCLASS in the #SuperBowl 🏈

What went wrong for the #NEPats? Can New England bounce back in 2026? What does another new OC mean for Seattle’s offense?

I wasn’t planning on having an emotional morning today, but this hit me in the feels as a fellow GirlDad.

Beautiful.

@MattHarmon_BYB Outstanding job as always brother.

[Derek Tate @DerekTateNFL]

Not sure what’s going on in Brandon Aiyuk’s personal life, but him completely falling off the grid - and any financial consequences that come with it - is concerning to say the least.

John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan both sound confused and betrayed with how all of this played out.

[Coach Yac 🗣 @Coach_Yac]

Kyle Shanahan on the last time he spoke to Brandon Aiyuk:

“I would say the last time it stopped for me was when I tried to get a hold of him and couldn’t. Tried a couple more times and couldn’t. And that matched everyone else who tried to get a hold of him and couldn’t. There’s not much of an explanation because it’s hard for us and anyone else to understand. That’s why it’s something I’ve never seen in 22 years of coaching.”

[Derek Tate @DerekTateNFL]

What a horrible look for the Buffalo Bills.

Clearly feeling some need to defend the decision to keep Brandon Beane at the expense of Sean McDermott and a trashing a young player still on the roster.

Damn.

[Ari Meirov @MySportsUpdate]

Wow. #Bills owner Terry Pegula says the coaching staff pushed to draft WR Keon Coleman and that was never GM Brandon Beane's top choice in that situation.

"That was Brandon being a team player. ... He's taken heat over it. I'm here to tell you the true story."

Wowza. I've never seen anything like this before... Coleman is still on the roster BTW.
