Without further ado, we will separate Sunday’s action in winners and losers.
Winners
Myles Garrett and the Cleveland Browns
Myles Garrett and the Cleveland Browns obtained what they wanted on Sunday. Garrett, the defensive player of the year 2023, snorted and swollen on sitting games If he was not changed to a contender, but in the end, he received the registration day he was looking for after all. The 29 -year -old is now the fourth part of the NFL in terms of Average annual salary ($ 40 million) and guaranteed money ($ 123 million).
The Browns now have their defensive cornerstone blocked during their 35 -year season in 2030, which allows them to concentrate on a quarterback with the second selection in the draft and does not even think about making Penn State Edge Rusher Abdul Carter. In addition, Garrett’s presence means that Cleveland should be able to present an average defense, at least, for his new rookie who started the QB.
DK Metcalf
Metcalf Is sought in Seattle After it was clear that they were rebuilding. Not only did he obtain his desire, but he received the largest contract for total value ($ 150 million) in the history of the Steelers. The average of $ 30 million per year in its contract is now tied in the fifth highest in the league among the receivers, and can still align in front of another open receiver that can scare opposite defenses in George Pickens. Relatively open and very effective looks are directed along the Metcalf path. That is a great victory.

Mike Macdonald and John Schneider
The Seahawks now have five selections in the first two days of the NFL Draft of 2025: a first round selection, two second round selections (one from the Metcalf trade) and two third round selections (one of the Geno Smith Field Marshal Trade to Las Vegas Raiders). The reconstruction is in Seattle, and when that is noisy and clear, that generally gives a regime (a chief coach and a general manager) extra time to solve things and develop young players due to the greatest expectations. Chief coach Mike Macdonald and general manager John Schneider may have restarted the clock in his job security after a 7-10 campaign in his first year together in 2024.
Davante Adams and Los Angeles Rams
The Open Davante Adams receiver needs a few more years to solidify his case of the Hall of Fame of Professional Soccer, and the three times there of the first team also wanted to compete for a Super Bowl ring in the process. After signing with the Los Angeles Rams in a two -year treatment and $ 46 million with $ 26 million guaranteed on Sunday, it was paid at the age of 32, and can give Chase.
The Rams were the closest to any team to eliminate the LIX champion of the Super Bowl, Philadelphia Eagles, in the postseason of 2024. Adams and Puka Nacu upper level as it has done now.
Aaron Jones
Aaron Jones is a 30 -year -old runner who will turn 31 in December, but he still got a good day of payment. He forwarded the Minnesota Vikings in a two -year contract and $ 20 million with $ 13 million guaranteed Sunday. That is more than double the one -year contract and $ 7 million who signed with the Vikings last season after being released by the Packers. Jones prospered in the offensive ecosystem of Minnesota, producing a single -season career in yards by land (1,138) and carrying (255).
These two totals showed the Vikings, in their mind, that Jones is able to shake the error of the injury to be a productive RB1 at their age. However, he got that deal despite getting a significant wear as the season advanced. He averaged 5.2 yards for hauling in his first six games last season and in one patio less, 4.1, in the last 11 Vikings games. Jones charged a mostly guaranteed contract during his 32 -year season. It is not bad at all for a corridor.
The Titans, who have the number 1 team, can now breathe easily when they are potentially exchanged to No. 3 with the New York Giants because Penn State Edge, Abdul Carter, will probably be on the board. This is because the Browns solidified their place of edge corridor when he signed Garrett on Sunday. Cleveland will certainly focus on a quarterback, which increases the heat of the wishes of giants to exchange number 1 if they prefer Miami’s road room on the Sanders of Colorado among QB.
Tennessee has a need in Edge Rusher after cutting Harold Landry, and now they can store draft selections in an exchange and still obtain their type with the third general selection.
Loser
Micah Parsons, Ja’Mar Chase, Tee Higgins and Trey Hendrickson, in addition to their respective agents, must have been drinking bottles of champagne after their positional markets made significant jumps on Sunday.
Parsons, three times there that is 25 years old, can demand an extension of the cowboys for at least $ 40 million in average annual salary and does not even blink after Garrett, which is four years older, signed for that.
Hendrickson will turn 31 in December, but he is only the fifth player to publish consecutive seasons with at least 17 captures, and his 17.5 in 2024 he led the League. Any The Bengals or other team will eventually have to pay for its services.
Metcalf, who turns 28 in December, is older than Chase and Higgins, and his road tree is less diverse than the current containers of the Bengals. However, he received an extension of five years and $ 150 million from the Pittsburgh Steelers. Both Higgins and Chase must charge after Sunday’s action.
All these players could have been extended by their teams last year. That would have saved both organizations a lot of money and space in the limit. But because both front offices were passive, they have allowed the rest of the league to go to the market in these position groups.
Equipment with capitalization space
Many players made agreements to remain with their teams, and some great exchanges have already occurred. That leaves teams with large pieces of capitalization space such as the New England Patriots (a better league $ 113.3 million per Overthecap.com), Los Angeles Chargers ($ 83.3 million) and Arizona’s cardinals ($ 74.5 million) than the left in the left arrives on Monday. Of course, there are options in the open market, but many of the best have already left. That means that teams like these with holes and massive amounts of space in the top will pay excessive talent or clear the current options and will bow further in the draft, which can have mixed results.

Cody Benjamin
Aaron Rodgers is a loser after Sunday for a couple of reasons. One is two possible showers evaporated for him. The Las Vegas raiders needed a quarterback, but chose to trade for Geno Smith. The Seattle Seahawks were an attractive destination for Rodgers with Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Tyler Locktt and DK Metcalf in the building. Now Lockett, Metcalf and others have gone, and Seattle has made it clear that they are rebuilding. That is not something Rodgers wants to do at 41.
Secondly, he lost the opportunity to finish his career playing in the same team as Davante Adams teammate for a long time: his 83 TouchDowns as a quarterback receiver duo of all quarterback are the third of all time. They are behind Peyton Manning and Marvin Harrison (114 with the Colts) and Steve Young and Jerry Rice (92 with the 49ers). Instead of Adams potentially following Rodgers to the giants, Steelers or Titans, Adams signed with the Rams. With Matthew Stafford returning to the Rams, that will not be a landing place for Rodgers.
On Wednesday, the general manager of RAMS, Les Snead, called the Open Receptor Cooper Kupp Playing for Los Angeles in 2025 the “Less Probable” option after Putting it in the exchange block at the beginning of this low season.
Now that the Rams have signed Adams, it is clear that they are ready to move from KUPP after acquiring another consummated veteran in their position.
Von Miller
The Buffalo Bills are signed again: Field Marshal Josh Allen, Khalil Shakir open receiver, Gregory Rousseau edge corridor and corner Terrel Bernard has received new businesses this low season. However, Miller was Cut Sunday before its 36 -year -old season.
Not only did he lose great money, but now he will probably have to wait for the first waves of free agents to be signed before discovering his NFL 2025 house.
