Trey Hendrickson's contract raise is a win-win for both the player and the Bengals

I think there's a win-win. You get more money for this year. You still get to be a free agent next year and maybe cash in one more time. And the Bengals... don't have to worry about it in the coming years.

Outcome of the contract's value is subjective to team and player goals.

An NFL trade request doesn't really mean anything anymore; it's just the new version of a holdout

What this should teach us more than anything about the NFL is that a trade request doesn't really mean shit anymore. In the NBA I feel like if you request a trade... it's over. In the NFL, that's just the new holdout, right? Is requesting a trade.

The 2024 off-season saw numerous trade requests (Aiyuk, McLaurin, Hendrickson) result in the players staying with their original teams on new deals.

Terry McLaurin's 'hold in' only worked because he didn't miss mental reps and stayed in shape

I like to think that Terry is a consummate pro... they were just giving him all the assignments, the playbook, all that stuff he was doing mental reps. He's gonna be in shape.

Subjective assessment of a player's preparation during a holdout.

Tommy DeVito will play a snap in the NFL this year

Will Tommy DeVito play a snap in the NFL this year? Yes. No, he'll be on a team though. He feels like a Saints quarterback.

Insufficient information about whether Tommy DeVito played an NFL snap in 2025.

The Brewers' pressure created their 'lucky' breaks

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.

This is an evaluative baseball argument rather than a claim with one definitive result.

The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly

Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.

The assessment of Simmons' impact and positional ranking is partly subjective and will depend on his Chicago performance.

I thought they could win the Super Bowl before Jeffrey Simmons. Now I really do.
