Steven Jackson!

[moosekill]

People tend to take these twitter posts as gospel time and again, get their panties all in a bunch, then find out it was just the reporter speculating when they know nothing more than we do. Most of the news guys in town know less than we do.

He's too busy making commercials.

that cant be it. making commercials hasn't had a detrimental effect on peyton manning's play......

Steven Jackson filmed heading to the field for his workout

 

[RobertWeathers]

SJAX in town and Eric Martin coincidentally absent from practice.

My understanding on how the process works is....

1) Phone call with team/player & agent to gauge interest...1st interview stuff. (healthy, in shape, remember the plays, etc.) and talk ballpark $. If ok then they fly in.
2) Depending on the player, dinner. Chit-chat...BB takes him to the Ground Round for the tuna salad plate.
3) Team conducts a physical. Player signs waiver. If all checks out, he works out.
4) If workout is good- contract talks. If work out sucks, limo to Logan or TF Green.

Maroney is in the mix too..

Lawrence Malrony? Unstoppable!

That's a very good point and quite possibly the case.

They will be managing his reps anyway and probably wouldn't use him much, if at all, vs Tennessee.

This is about roster management. They don't need him for TN and something may happen in that game that re-prioritizes things. So, if a gentlemen's agrrement is in place, why not wait until after TN?

Eric Martin misses practice due to illness http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/patriots/the_blitz/2015/12/eric_martin_misses_practice_due_to_illness…

Have we heard from the team at Logan yet? What about the scan of hotel check-ins?

The Ground Round is still around, it thought it went under?

It looks like Steven Jackson won't be signed. We would have heard something by now .

Not true. They only worked him out today (Thursday). He visited with the Pats yesterday..

 

[DaBruinz]

The Rams had the league's worst offense when McDaniels was there. 32 out of 32. We already brought in Amendola, and some scrub Rams TE no longer here. Might as well bring in Jackson too. As long as Brady is here he'll continue to make the offense look good.

The Rams also didn't have an O-line, had QB issues and defense issues when McDaniels was there as the OC.

 

[Todd Bradley]

I'd love for this signing to happen, but at the end of the day, if it doesn't, I won't get upset. One certainly has to trust Bill's judgement.

I just hope we sign a capable Running Back to the active roster before game day....

It did but was reorganized a few years ago.

Ground Round Grill & Bar-Home

BB and Pioli took Rodney there in 2003 to close the deal. Only reason I mentioned it. Classic story...

They took Rodney to the ground round? they must not thought to much of him otherwise they would have taken him to the 99.

We'll likely hear pretty soon if this is going to happen. Money and contract terms shouldn't be an issue. Bill just needs to decide if the guy is in game shape. I would guess he knows by now, just my opinion.

Yep! Great story...

Pioli and Belichick a nice team - The Boston Globe
