The original content produced by the PFR staff during the past week:
- Rory Parks examined the free agent case of Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul, noting that although New York could opt to place the franchise tag on its star pass-rusher, a deal that pays JPP somewhere between Robert Quinn‘s $14.2MM AAV and J.J. Watt‘s $16.7MM annual salary would be fair for both sides.
- Luke Adams posted the list of the NCAA underclassmen who have declared for the NFL draft, which includes Wisconsin’s Melvin Gordon and UCLA’s Brett Hundley. The list will be constantly updated and be available on the right-hand sidebar under “PFR Features.”
