It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Edelman and Amendola worked pretty well together on the field at the same time. Good WRs are never redundant.When Bourne was acquired I called the two of them redundant, two really similar players.
Like who? Skinny twig Thornton?And if you put Meyers on the field for max snaps, that's pinning someone faster and more talented on the bench.
Not sure why but what do you think Slayton is going to cost? If it's similar money to Meyers then I'm going to lose my mind.I'd take Darius Slayton over Meyers all day everyday.
****ing state.
If he is, maybe he just figured out (learned) that he doubled the cost to Meyers if he stayed here.Is Bedard reading this forum?
It's doesn't helpIf you believe taxes have ANYTHING to do with it you're a rube. We aren't a destination anymore because we both suck and won't pay enough to offset the fact that we suck.
Nobody said they were "bad," but Meyers at 11 million per was a bit rich.Edelman and Amendola worked pretty well together on the field at the same time. Good WRs are never redundant.
Thornton is the same exact size as Jameson Williams, only now he's bigger and has more experience. Marcus Jones is also a dynamic athlete, he looks like Tyreek with the ball in his hands. Draft another one, draft two... and bring a guy like Slayton in.Like who? Skinny twig Thornton?
Meyers was considered the #1 WR available in free agency, he should cost the most among all free agent WR's.Not sure why but what do you think Slayton is going to cost? If it's similar money to Meyers then I'm going to lose my mind.
Post of the year: that's how hypocrites like him act pathetic.Then get out of the thread. You keep making the same post whining about people being negative. Of course people are going to be negative when we didn’t sign one of the only homegrown wide receivers that’s been any good here. He didn’t even get overpaid. It was a contract that we could have and should have matched for a player we know works in our system.
Hahaha... yeah, millions of dollars means less than feelings.If you believe taxes have ANYTHING to do with it you're a rube. We aren't a destination anymore because we both suck and won't pay enough to offset the fact that we suck.
My mind would be changed if we got a true #1 but is there reason to believe that will happen given our history? Last time that happened was 16 years ago.
One of the greatest trades in league history. They gave the Raiders 4th, got a couple of HIF caliber seasons out of him, and then got a 3rd from the Vikings for him.Moss wasn't a FA. He was brought here by trade. WW was a RFA but the Pats traded for him.
EDIT: Never mind. Don't want to sidetrack the thread because of Bedard's idiocy.Hahaha... yeah, millions of dollars means less than feelings.
Oh for the love of ****ing god, taxes aren't stopping elite players from going to teams in California, New York, or freaking Chicago and it wouldn't stop players from coming here if we were either A: elite or B: PAID THEM.
Here comes the spin doctors justifying BB's horrible move. Meyers got exactly what some of us myself included thought he was worth $11Mill. So you get rid of your Struggling QB best target Bravo. Bottom line we should and could have kept him.I’m honestly not as worried about this as everyone else here is. He was a solid player but not not a game changer. If they acquire a game changing player at the same position, the overall group should be fine. Spending $11M on Meyers would have just kept them where they were last year which was not going to get you that far, they’d still need to acquire another guy.
he wont stay healthy...never has. I really liked him coming out of college but its easy to see that he cant be trusted to stay healthyMcD loading up in LV...if Jimmy G can stay healthy, they'll have a really good offense.
