Brandon Scherff signed his franchise tender. Locked in at $18.03 million.

So many guards. Very hard to convince me Scherff is worth $18m... #WashingtonFootball https://t.co/Wse72l6muu

Good video as always from @swayyrun21. Scherff is a dog. I'm just mad we couldn't lock him down with a cap-friendly deal. #WashingtonFootball https://t.co/wjIs8uR6d0

The Chargers release of Trai Turner (via @AdamSchefter) is yet another reason why the $18M tag assigned to Brandon Scherff was odd to me.

Several really good guards are hitting the market this week. Would have presumably lowered Scherff's asking price.

Cornelius Lucas had a really good season for @WashingtonNFL. Was it a good enough season for them to think he may be able to start at left tackle in 2021, though? https://t.co/KJt4cxDq2f

— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) March 12, 2021

Its just terrible management. I was surprised it took him this long to sign it.

Cooley, correctly: "Are you a Super Bowl contender this year? Are you a legit contender this year? Because if not, why would you pay a guard $18M?" https://t.co/7uk52BOyCy

Yep. Thanks. Or: draft another and develop. Use the year to prepare. If u can’t keep a guy, but can replace in house then much better

Rivera continued: “I mean the kid, as I said: he's talented. And if he ever does get it, he's gonna make an impact."

Also notable: “There's an intangible that you have to have, and as you said: if you're 20, and there's a group of 30-year-olds, you better be as mature as them."

Anybody bringing up Cam Newton to WFT this offseason received the stink eye from me. Could have signed Cam for nothing last year and instead Rivera traded a 5th for Kyle Allen. Then, for whatever the reason, Cam didn't exactly kill it in NE. Wasn't that complicated.

— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) March 12, 2021

The Cam Newton re-signing has me trapped in the headspace between "Perennial Juggernaut Re-Signs Former MVP in Galactic Checkmate Move" and "Collapsed Ex-Dynasty Kids Itself By Re-Committing to Reclamation Project."

Leaning toward the latter.

Tom Brady reached agreement with the Buccaneers today on a four-year contract extension that voids to a one-year extension that locks him into Tampa through the 2022 season, sources tell ESPN.

#Panthers are now up to about $30 million in cap space after all their restructured deals. 9th in the NFL. Id expect them to be one of the spending teams this year. https://t.co/qgpBisuQDH

A breakdown of the adjusted contract for #Packers OLB Preston Smith, who now sticks in GB:
— $8M salary ($200K workout bonus, $300K in 46-mans, $6.5M signing bonus, $1M base.)
— $4.4M available in sack incentives, so he can eclipse the $12M he was set to earn before the redo.

I have a higher tape grade on Teven Jenkins than I did on Tristan Wirfs and I had Tristan Wirfs as a top 8 pick....

And even with that grade he STILL might end up as OT3 for me when all is said and done. This OL class is absolutely ***insane***

#Texas OT Sam Cosmi created some buzz with his workout yesterday:

6057, 314 lbs, 33" arms
4.85 40/1.68 10
30 vert
9'9" broad
4.39 SS
7.35 3C
36 reps

Cosmi and Rashawn Slater both posting 1.68 splits are remarkable numbers.

— Dane Brugler (@dpbrugler) March 12, 2021

After updating with numbers from @dpbrugler, Sam Cosmi is on pace to score a 10.00 #RAS, which would edge out Taylor Lewan for the best athletic testing for a OT in the last 34 seasons...assuming all of Cosmi's numbers hold

During our @nflnetwork coverage of Trey Lance's pro day, @MoveTheSticks says he got a text from a longtime NFL evaluator who compared Lance to Josh Allen.

Arguably the most experienced CB in the 2021 NFL Draft -- Camryn Bynum brings with him a tough, instinctive skill set to the pros. @Cambeezy_ has terrific ball skills to boot.

The NFL informed clubs today they will be allowed in their draft rooms for the 2021 draft, provided physical distancing and proper mask wearing are followed, per source.

So, no "home draft" this year, though cameras will again be installed with each GM and head coach.

— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) March 12, 2021

To be clear, those cameras will be installed with GMs and head coaches wherever they're located, but it's assumed most will be in the draft room. And the safety precautions, including distancing and masks, will be implemented in every draft room regardless of vaccination status.
