About Dugger, at some point it wony be about numbers

I think the most we can rollover is 30m, and it doesnt seem like we are going to splash the remaining, so we dont really need to worry about the dead cap this year

He was supposed to be a cornerstone player, one of the few that didnt suck from previous stints. Then he Peppers gets the leadership position and his spot. Hawkins is brought in, a rookie passes him.

And it doesnt light a fire under him. There hasnt been a single good report on him.

Do we really need this mentality on the team? I dont think it matches with Vrabel's style

Goodbye, so long, farewell IMO

Wich is unfortunate because not to long ago he was listed and regarded as a top 10 safety.. he's shown that he can play at a high level.. in 2022 he was phenomenal.

Injuries have really affected him.. and that ankle was worse than initially reported last season.. Dugger realistically was never good in coverage his strength was usually up roaming around the line of scrimmage and playing the run.. he's still a good player and even in a reduced role he could still be effective here.. it will all come down to what the coaching staff believes come cut down day.

Dugger is a good football player. Hating him because out idiot coaching staff put him man to man with WR1s, while he was limping on an ankle that need surgery is obtuse.

Andy Dufresne Obtuse or Andy Johnson Obtuse?

Was Maye between the white lines?

No, he was doing the white lines

 

[DaBruinz]

Players seem to have been kept out of practice for precautions when dealing with something.. Davis, Gonzo, Hollins, james, Diggs... Larsen and dial are the only guys on IR.. hoping it doesn't pile up..

Larison, Dial, Durant, Lampe, and Roy are all IRed.

In a practical sense, ~$30M is the max that will remain, but there is no official limit to how much can roll over.

 

[DaBruinz]

Has anyone said anything about the injury to James, I believe after the injury he just walked off the field back to the training room which hopefully means he’ll be back soon.

It was reported as a Hamstring issue.. Those can take weeks to heal..

 

[Mike the Brit]

My top takeaway from last Friday was the offensive line. Not that all the players were individually great, but they looked well coached. There was a clear plan, changes were made smoothly and there were no pre-snap penalties whatsoever.

These coaches obviously know what they are doing. Just please keep Eliot Wolf out of personnel decisions.

Dugger was also an older prospect when we drafted 23+ I believe .

Yeah, he's already 29.

Where was that report? I’ve been looking and tried to find it, but came up empty handed

 

[BobDigital]

Hoping for just good health right now going into all important joint practices.

 

[BobDigital]

Just glad Bryant it out there and okay.

Also it felt like we got a lot of reports from this practice, which is great. I hope the press is continued to have access. Maybe Vrabel doesn't care about it as long as no video it out for other teams to look at plays and what not.

 

[Uptown]

Ok let’s trade Polk & Bourne to the 49ers for Bosa. They literally have no healthy receivers.

He'll probably never be a great Free safety.
Hopefully we find someone else.
McCourtey was underappreciated IMO.

They have no healthy WRs so they're... going to take Polk and Bourne... who are both injured?

It was a joke… notice the “For Bosa….”

He's a box safety never has really been a Free safety.. Hawkins who has impressed and gotten better with better coaching appears to be a starter next to peppers.. I expect peppers, Woodson and Hawkins to be the guys.. Hawkins and Woodson fit more of the free safety role.. they can control the deep half of the feild freeing up peppers to punish RBs and TEs over the middle..

No joking aloud on the forum...
