There are a LOT of reasons to justifiably believe that the offense should be upgraded this season, regardless of if this trade goes through. a. Both Campbell and Wilson SHOULD be better in their 2nd year of play and Wilsom moving back to his natural position. ATV has proven he is a plus player...

. My 2 cents: Schefter's speculation just reiterates the SAME points we have been talking about for more than 90 pages. 1. This deal won't happen until after June 1. - Well, what a revelation, Adam 2. The deal will likely happen with the Patriots - Well, what a revelation, Adam 3. The...

I saw a random clip from the msn page which rated the top 16 players of the 2020 draft 5 years later and one fact popped out. There were IIRC 4 OT's rated. The one who had the best rookie year (To the Browns) never was as good after that season and is no longer with the Browns. The other 3...

We saw what a difference Milt made to our defense. An explosive threat at DT makes EVERYONE around him better. IIRC the best players to be had around that 10 picks will be CB's and WR's They already have 2 great WR's, so one that high is uber-redundant, and Lawrence will have FAR more impact...

Still, am always suspicious of these big deal announcements when they first happen. Remember when Diggs was first signed, it was hailed as a 3 year $69MM deal, and in the end, it was a one year deal for under $20MM. Most of these "big deals" come with a lot of outs for the team. That's why...

I think the post that talked about the market for AJB was spot on. There are a limited number of teams who have the need, cap space, and draft capital to absorb an AJB. We hit all those markers. Also. we need to watch what teams will do in a week closely. What happens WILL affect AJB's...

I have been aboard the Edge/RT bandwagon pretty much this entire off season, BUT I'm beginning to wonder if grabbing the best LB available might not fit a bigger need. It's not that a RT doesn't make sense as well. It's just that whoever we draft at THAT position is likely to be a...

We have FIVE picks in the last 2 rounds and will have already picked 6 guys before that. There is no 'need" involved with those 5 picks. They are just five shots in the dark hoping to hit on one or 2 who becomes a contributor down the road. NONE of those picks are likely to become someone...

Well now you have peaked my interest. Did she get her children back. What was the outcome of the case?

Sounds like the injury only cost him 3 games when it finally tore. The key to me would be when he initially GOT the injury and how long he was playing with it. Sounds like this is much like the HLandry situation. Being a good soldier can affect your individual stats, so if he got it...

Thel, your feckless leader hasn't gone a day without playing fast and loose with the "facts", so other than your blind obedience to the daily lies, he is fine with you speaking your mind, UNLESS it contradicts his stated aims. And Buddy, these aren't memes this ******* is playing with, it's...

Well, based on the facts, it is clear that the NFL is the only monopoly that Trump DOESN'T like, so obviously the matter is personal to him. I find myself feeling more than a little uncomfortable agreeing with Putin's Puppet on this issue. The NFL's arrogant drive to extract every last dollar...

Here's the thing. When you are drafting in the 30's it is unlikely that you are going to get a starter in the first 3 rounds. At that point you are just hoping to get a rotational player who will improve over the next 2 year and BECOME a starter eventually. Of course every now and then you...

Most people forget Adam's most important contribution to the Pats. In 1999 Adam missed 3 FG's that season that would have tied or won games the Pats lost. If he had made those kicks the Pats might have been 11-5 instead of 8-8 and Pete Carroll would have been the HC of Pats as we entered the...

This is simply not true. Wilson became a multiyear starter for the lions, and, IIRC, was one of leading tacklers among S's for a couple of those years. As a football player he was a solid pick. I always thought Wilson got tarred his rookie year when he was thrown into a game (Seattle, I...
