Seattle Seahawks Lands Star Safety Jamal Adams

Jamal Adams finally got what he asked for months later.

The New York Jets traded Jamal Adams and a 2022 fourth-round pick was traded to the Seattle Seahawks for the 2021 first-round pick, 2021 third-round pick, 2022 first-round pick, and safety Brandon McDougald.

This trade brings a big-play safety they’ve been missing since Earl Thomas signed with the Baltimore Ravens in 2019 free agency.

Jamal Adams has been in the league for three years and has substantially been productive each year. In his three years, he has recorded 210 solo tackles, 28 tackles for loss, 12 sacks, six forced fumbles, four fumble recoveries, and two interceptions. He also has made the Pro Bowl twice, as well as being named First-Team All-Pro this past season. 

He would substantially help the Seattle Seahawks secondary which was once known as the Legion of Boom. He’s a major upgrade from Bradley McDougald. 

Is Seattle all-in on a championship run, only time will tell?

Patrick Mahomes Breaks the Bank with NFL’s Richest Contract Deal

Yesterday, star Quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, and the Kansas City Chiefs agreed to a ten-year extension contract worth $450 million.

Patrick Mahomes is guaranteed $63 million at signing and up to $140 million injuries guaranteed. 

Patrick Mahomes now has the highest NFL contract in history as well as raising the bar for Quarterback contracts.

Mahomes is well-deserving of this contract after bringing his team back down big against the Houston Texans in the divisional game 21-0 in the first quarter, to come back to win 51-31, or coming back against the Tennessee Titans to win 35-21, or to come back down 20-10 late in the fourth quarter against the San Fransisco 49ers, to win his first-ever Super Bowl and first-ever Super Bowl for the Kansas City Chiefs franchise!

Patrick Mahomes has always shown up in the big games and this new deal shows what happens when you produce on a consistent level.

Prove it Contract for Star Quarterback Cam Newton

Last Sunday, the New England Patriots signed star Quarterback Cam Newton. 

Cam Newton has been accustomed to injuries in the last few seasons. 

In 2014, he got into a car accident which resulted in a Back Vertebral Fracture. 

Cam Newton hasn’t played 14 games in one season since 2018. 

The two games he missed was the Panthers shutting him down due to a shoulder injury that he played through the whole season. Cam Newton had undergone shoulder surgery in Jan 2018. 

Other injuries he has dealt with in his career are Chest Rib Fracture and Ankle tears. 

Last season, Cam Newton injured his left foot which was later announced as a Pedal Lisfranc Sprain in week two which lead to him sitting out the rest of the season. 

Cam Newton when healthy is an electrifying Quarterback who can beat you with his arm as well as his legs. 

In nine NFL seasons, Cam Newton has thrown for 29,041 passing yards, 182 passing touchdowns, 4,806 rushing yards, 58 rushing touchdowns.  He also has made the Pro Bowl team three times, First Team All-Pro in 2015, 17 game-winning drives, and one Super Bowl appearance. He has also won 2011 Offensive NFL Rookie of the Year, Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Year, 2015 MVP and Offensive Player of the Year in 2015, and has been in the NFL Top 100 ranking from 2012-2019, with his peak being in 2014 ranking as low #24.

Cam Newton gets another shot to show everyone that he still has it with the signing in New England. 

However, the one year $550 K deal with the Patriots, looks like they brought him in for insurance backup if young promising Quarterback Jarrett Stidham struggles early during the regular season. Cam Newton also has a base salary of $1.05 million. Newton can make up to $6.45 million in incentives/per-game roster bonuses. 

Say what you want about Cam, but when it comes to crunch time he knows how to win 68-56-1 record in nine seasons. 

If Cam Newton can stay healthy it is no brainer he should start week 1 over Jarrett Stidham!

Makur Maker Could be the Spark to more Five Star Recruits Signing with HBCUs

We can’t say Black Lives Matter and not protect our HBCUs programs.

A few months ago high school Basketball phenom from Compton Magic AAU, Mikey Williams hinted at signing with an HBCU, after receiving offers from Hampton University and Norfolk State University. 

Today, five-star college Basketball recruit, Makur Maker signed to Howard University. For those that don’t know Howard University is in the MEAC Conference.

The last time big named basketball recruits signed with HBCUs were back in the 1970-90s with players such as Earl “The Pearl” Monroe, Willis Reed, Earl Lloyd, Avery Johnson, Rick Mahorn and Leonard “Truck” Johnson to name a few.

However, with Makur Maker signing to Howard University this could be the move to spark more five-star Basketball recruits to sign with Historically Black Colleges and Universities.

Makur Maker is a 6’11 235 pound Center from Phoenix, AZ.

Markus Maker averaged 20 points per game, eight rebounds per game, four assists per game, three blocks per game, and three steals per game.

Maker also received offers from Kentucky, Memphis, UCLA, Alabama, Oregon, and USC.

Only time will tell if more high school basketball stars sign with HBCUs.
