Terms: $30M annually
Tom Brady announced on Twitter that he is leaving the New England Patriots, the only team he has ever known, and now there are reports that he is moving to the NFC and joining the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Rivers is set to join the Colts and take the reigns from Jacoby Brissett. Rivers is coming off of a 23 TD/20 INT season but despite being 38 years old, the Colts felt it was the right choice and to be honest … I don’t blame them. This is a solid move for the Colts, given their real QB Andrew Luck retired abruptly last season.

Jamie Collins re-unites with former Pats coach Matt Patricia to help fortify the defense in Detroit. After signing a minimun deal last year in NE, Collins inks a $30M deal. Good stuff man!
