The original content produced by the PFR staff during the past seven days:
- After looking at the offensive and defensive side of the ball, Luke Adams examined the largest 2015 cap hits among special teamers, where Stephen Gostkowski and Mike Scifres top the list among kickers and punters, respectively.
- Sam Robinson delved into the extension case for Broncos defender Malik Jackson, arguing that the upcoming season will go a long way towards gauging Jackson’s market value. A strong 2015 could push Jackson in the $9MM/per year stratosphere occupied by Jurrell Casey and Corey Liuget.
- With Tom Brady‘s appeal set to be heard on Tuesday, Rob DiRe asked how the Patriots QB’s ban should ultimately shake out. The voting is rather splintered, as about 38% of readers believe Brady’s suspension should be vacated entirely, while roughly 26% think the ban should be extended.
- We launched a new series this week called Community Tailgate, where we’ll raise an issue and invite you the reader to offer your comments and feedback. This week, Zach Links and Luke covered four topics:
- Evan Mathis‘ landing spot (link)
- Greg Hardy‘s suspension (link)
- The fates of Dez Bryant, A.J. Green, Julio Jones, and Demaryius Thomas (link)
- The outcome of the Bills‘ quarterback competition (link)
