New on SI: Irv Cross, Former NFL Pro Bowl Player and Broadcaster, Dies at 81
Cross was selected to two Pro Bowls as a player and was a commentator with CBS for 23 years. Former NFL cornerback and legendary commentator Irv Cross passed away at age 81, CBS Sports announced on Sunday. Cross was a commentator with CBS from 1971 to 1994.

New on SI: NFL Rumors: Bill Belichick Raves About Cam Newton During Offseason
Newton, currently a free agent, completed 65.8% of his passes for 2,657 yards, eight touchdowns and 10 interceptions as the Patriots' starter last season. Even though the Patriots' first season following Tom Brady's departure did not go as planned, the end results have not kept head coach Bill Belichick from heaping praise on starting quarterback Cam Newton. According to Ben Volin of The Boston Globe , Belichick has glowed about Newton during the offseason, offering rave reviews about the veteran quarterback's effort put forth during the 2020 campaign. The lone area of concern for Belichick about Newton's performance is his diminished arm strength. Newton has had several surgeries on his throwing shoulder in recent years. Newton, who turns 32 in May and is currently a free agent, started all but one game for New England last season, going 7-8 as a starter. He completed 65.8% of his passes for 2,657 yards, eight touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He also added 592 ...

The franchise tag window is about to open, but we still have uncertainty about the league's financial picture in 2021. Tuesday is the first milepost in the NFL offseason.

But here are projections for a $180 million cap, a $183 million cap (that’s been the working number for some teams) and a $185 million cap. Position by position for 180/183/185, all figures in millions: QB: $24.76/$25.17/$25.45 WR: $15.76/$16.03/$16.02 RB: $8.54/$8.68/$8.78 TE: $9.47/$9.63/$9.73 OL: $13.57/$13.79/$13.94 DE: $15.85/$16.113/$16.29 DT: $13.70/$13.93/$14.08 LB: $14.59/$14.83/$14.99 CB: $14.85/$15.10/$15.27 S: $10.47/$10.64/$10.76 Because the cap will be lower, and even with inflation factored in, all those numbers are down (and some significantly so) from 2020.

Conor and Jenny revisit Conor's most bold predictions, right and wrong, from past segments of the Weak-Side Podcast. Regular listeners of the Weak-Side Podcast agree that "The Orracle" is the show's must-listen segment every week. But how accurate is soothsayer Conor Orr? This week, thanks to some expert record-keeping by producer Shelby Royston, we hold Orr accountable with some of his best—and worst—predictions. Join us as we revisit nine of Orr's predictions this season on topics including: The coordinator he projected to be the hottest darkhorse candidate of this hiring cycle. The futures of the Giants' quarterback, general manager, midseason flier at running back and division race. How the NFC West would unfurl, including the team he thought would win a Week 11 showdown as well as his choice for a division champion. His mid-October pick for the Offensive Rookie of the Year.

Watt was released by the Texans, freeing him up to choose his next team. Jenny and Gary discuss Watt's potential landing spots, examine what he might have left in the tank and why it was a bit of a head-scratcher that the Texans didn't trade him. Also, the Carson Wentz trade saga drags on in Philly, where the Eagles thought they were in line for a Stafford-type return then realized they were in more of a Goff situation with their QB. It's too late to turn back now, and if the Colts indeed offered two second-round picks (as reported), should Philly do the deal? Finally, a look at Russell Wilson perhaps flexing some more QB muscle, and the Seahawks' very odd reaction to it. Could this have to do with the play-calling, the fa...
