As a resident of Nashville, I would like to start the newsletter off today by formally welcoming to the city. I think my neighbors are moving out soon, so if you want to move in next door, just let me know.I take that back, you can't move in next door, because I don't think anyone actually sells houses in this city anymore. Instead, they turn the house into an AirBNB that can only be rented out by bachelorette parties. If you've never been to Nashville, it is the bachelorette party capital of the world. You can't walk three feet without seeing a bachelorette party. There are so many bachelorette parties that Will Brinson and I once embedded ourselves with a party to see if we could survive ( ).Anyway, this newsletter isn't about bachelorette parties, it's about football, so let's get to the rundown, where we'll have plenty of coverage of the Julio trade between the and .As always, here's your weekly reminder to tell all your friends to sign up for the newsletter. To sign up, all you have to do is . 1. Today's show: Bonus mailbag plus Julio Jones emergency podcastDuring the NFL offseason, we like to spice things up each week by adding a listener mailbag every Friday and since we didn't actually do one this past Friday, we're going to do one right now instead.Our mailbag episodes are pretty simple: We read listener questions during the show and then answer as many of those questions as po sible. Questions can be about literally anything. I mean, today alone, someone asked us to compare NFL teams to beers. If you want to submit a question, all you have to do is go to Apple Podcasts ( ) and Erik Johnson Jersey leave a five-star review.Here's a sample of the questions that we answered in today's mailbag:Q: If NFL teams were beers which ones would they be?A: This question was a lot harder to answer than I thought it would be, but I answered it anyway, because it combines my two favorite things: Football and beer. The are an IPA because no one liked them before 2012. The are Zima because neither of them have been relevant since the 90s. The are PBR because both have existed forever but have never been the best and the are Natty Light because nothing makes more sense than the Bengals being Natty Light. Q: What are your favorite alternate jerseys?A: The Creamsicle uniform is one of my favorites, but they haven't worn it since 2012 due to an NFL rule that requires teams to only wear one helmet per season. CHANGE THE RULE NFL, I WANT TO SEE THE CREAMSICLE JERSEYS. I also like the red uniforms and I think I might be the only person alive who is a fan of Seattle's radioactive green uniforms. Also, I left the powder blues off this list because they've recently been wearing them as their primary jersey, which means it doesn't qualify as an alternate.To listen to the rest of the mailbag -- and to follow the podcast -- . If you do click there, you'll also notice that we have a bonus episode in the form of our Julio Jones emergency podcast that was recorded on Sunday.2. Winners and losers from the Julio Jones tradeDuring the April 27 edition of the Pick Six Podcast, I predicted that Julio Jones would end up in Tenne see and the Titans made me look like a genius on Sunday after pulling off a deal with the Falcons. I feel so smart right now that I'm probably going to apply for Mensa tonight. I'll let you guys know how that goes. The details of the trade are pretty simple, the Titans will be getting Jones and a 2023 sixth-round pick while the Falcons will be getting a 2022 second-round pick and a 2023 fourth-round pick. There are winners and losers in every NFL trade, so let's take a look at who fell where after yesterday's deal.Winners:Adding Jones to the Titans' roster could create bigger running Semyon Varlamov Jersey lanes for Henry. The Titans star faced in the NFL last year, but with Jones now on the team, putting eight in the box will be a dangerous decision. If defenses keep doing that, it would mean Jones and will likely be facing single-coverage. If teams don't put eight in the box, then Henry should be able to run over any defense he faces. Either way, the Titans offense should be fun to watch in 2021. :This one goes without saying. Any time a team adds one of the best receivers in NFL history to its roster, the quarterback definitely comes away as a winner.Julio Jones:Julio wanted out of Atlanta and he got his wish. Now, he just needs to prove that he can stay healthy after mi sing seven games last season.Falcons: They can now afford to pay their 2021 draft picks. This is not a joke: The Falcons didn't have enough cap room to pay their rookies before the Jones trade went down, which is one reason they had to make the deal. This kind of cap mismanagement should probably also qualify them for the loser's list.Losers :The Colts added this offseason, but the Titans might have just one-upped them. The Titans won the division last year and their offense should be even better in 2021. , and Seahawks:The Packers probably could have helped the situation if they had been able to make a deal for Jones. As for Seattle, wanted Jones so badly that he actually called the receiver and had conversations with him about playing for the Seahawks. Adding Jones would have made both Wilson or Rodgers happy, but now neither player will be getting him. On the 49ers end, Jones put up huge numbers with Kyle Shanahan in Atlanta and the 49ers coach probably would have loved to have him in San Francisco. You can read more winners and losers . We also . Here's a look at the grades from our resident profe sor, Bryan DeArdo.Titans grade: A. Falcons grade: B. One person who probably would have given the Falcons a lower grade is Jason La Canfora. The CBS Sports NFL insider thinks the Falcons should have also traded . The Falcons seem confused about whether or not they're in a rebuild and the answer is that they're in a rebuild.From JLC: You can read .3. Packers president says Aaron Rodgers situation is dividing the team's fan baseThe next big date on the calendar for Aaron Rodgers and the Packers will come on Calvin Pickard Jersey Tuesday when Green Bay kicks off its mandatory minicamp. During the spring portion of the offseason, it's the only event Rodgers is required to attend. If Rodgers is a no-show, he could be fined more than $93,000, although the Packers could let him out of the fine by labeling his no-show as an excused absence.According to NFL.com, Rodgers' minicamp.If Rodgers doesn't show, that leaves the Packers in a difficult situation going forward, because if he skips minicamp, he might be willing to skip training camp and at that point, the Packers would have to give some serious thought to trading him. As you can imagine, the Rodgers situation isn't going over so well with fans in Green Bay. It's gotten so bad that team president and CEO Mark Murphy believes the into two sides: People who support Rodgers and people who don't. Murphy writes one column per month for the team's website and here's what :The irony here is that Murphy isn't even taking his own advice. He's talking about the situation publicly and it's probably not going to sit well with Rodgers that the team's CEO is calling his actions divisive. So is there a solution here that might work well for both sides?Peter King proposed one on Monday. King thinks the best way to solve this is for the Packers to make a deal with Rodgers by basically saying, "If you promise to play for us in 2021, we'll promise to trade you after the season." The weird part of that deal would potentially come in February if the Packers were to end up winning the Super Bowl. It would be absolutely nuts for a Super Bowl-winning team to trade its starting quarterback.You can read more .4. Predicting every game on the ' 2021 scheduleNow that the month of June is here, that means the dead part of the NFL offseason is almost upon us and although things can get kind of boring during that period, we're going to keep things spicy around here by going through and predicting every game on each team's 2021 schedule.There are 32 teams and we'll be doing one team per day until we make it through every team. Today, we're taking a closer look at the Cardinals. Our Bryan DeArdo went through the Cardinals' entire schedule and picked out all the games they're going to win and all the games they're going to lose. The Cardinals haven't finished a season with a winning record since 2015, which also happens to be the last time they made the playoffs, so all of this begs one question: Can they end both of those droughts this year?Here's a look at how he sees the Cardinals doing in three key games:Week 1: Cardinals at Titans. Prediction:Titans 31-27 over Cardinals.Week 8: Packers at Cardinals. Prediction:Cardinals 28-24 over Packers.Week 17: Cardinals at Cowboys. Prediction:Cowboys 34-28 over Cardinals.Overall, DeArdo is predicting that the Cardinals will end the season with a 10-7 record and if that happens, they'll be headed to the postseason for the first time in six years. As things currently stand, the Cards have the longest playoff drought in the NFC and they're also tied with the Bengals for the second-longest playoff drought in the NFL.If you want to see DeArdo's prediction for each game, . 5. collectibles are worth a lot of money If you're not busy this afternoon, you might want to go through your house and see if you own anything with Tom Brady's name on it, because with the way Brady things are selling right now, there's a 50% chance you could be a millionaire by the end of the week if you find anything Brady-related.There were two big sales over the weekend involving things related to Brady:Brady rookie card sells for $3.1 million. Two months ago, a Brady rookie card set a record when it was sold for $2.25 million, which was the highest price ever paid for a football card. Andreas Martinsen Jersey Well, that record has now been broken thanks to an auction where a different Brady . (Both cards are 2000 Playoff Contenders Championship Rookie Ticket cards and there are only 100 in existence.) If you've ever wondered what a $3.1 million card looks like, .Football from Brady's first TD pa s sells for $425,000. You'd think that Brady kept the ball after throwing his first career TD pa s, but that's not what happened back in 2001. After to Terry Glenn in an October game against the Chargers, Glenn decided to throw the ball into the stands and it ended up in the hands of a huge Patriots fan. After holding onto the ball for 20 years, the anonymous Patriots fan finally decided to sell it and it ended up fetching $428,841 at auction.Maybe I'm crazy, but I'd rather have the football over the card and that's if they were selling for the same price. Compared to the $3.1 million paid for the card, the football is a steal at $425,000 and just for the record, that will be the first and last time I ever refer to something that costs $425,000 as a steal. 6. Rapid-fire roundupIt was a busy weekend in the NFL and since it's nearly impo sible to keep track of everything that happened, I went ahead and put together a small roundup for you. signs two-year deal with .The upcoming season was going to be the final year on Edwards' contract, but that won't be the case anymore after he agreed to a with the Ravens.

Even if he doesn't win the grievance, he'll still be making some money in 2021 and that's because he with the Ravens that includes $500,000 in guaranteed money for the upcoming season, even though James won't be able to play.Titans sign wrestler.Trading for Julio Jones might have been the most surprising move the Titans made over the weekend, but it wasn't the craziest.
