Official 2021 Cutdown Day Thread

[PScottman]

Cooks is in his 7th year in the league. He's not on his rookie deal. Cooks signed a 5yr/$81M deal with the Rams after we traded him to them.. That deal has since been redone and he's a Free Agent after this season as Houston changed the final 2 years to VOID years..

When the Patriots had him he was on his rookie deal. Sorry I wasn't clear.

Is that Reagan?

Indeed it is, sir

Trust but verify

From that link:

Now it’s important to remember that, come the first week of the regular season in September, the team must be able to fit the total cost of the 53-man roster onto the salary cap.

That was in the context of the off-season, where he was describing how much cap space is impacted by signings due to the top 51 rule. The point the author was making is that you need spare cap room once the off-season is through because you need to account for the additional guys on the roster.

He used 53 man roster as shorthand for that, which he probably shouldn’t have because it clearly confused some people. But no one ever anticipates players being on IR or PUP, even though it happens every year. And everyone forgets about the PS because they account for so little on the cap.

But yes - all off-season it’s only salaries of top 51 players plus bonus prorations for all players (including dead cap as needed). Once final cut downs occur, you need to account for everyone.

Can you @woolster22 for a well-thought out, mainstream pov?

Do we call advil a "headache vaccine?"

The covid "vaccines," don't actually prevent infection like, you know, every other treatment labelled a vaccine in the history of medicine.

What's mainstream and what isn't doesn't matter.

Fun fact: the woman that signed off on Oxy/Fentanyl approval is the same woman who was in charge of the Covid therapy approvals.

She already proved herself incapable, but go ahead and trust your health to her. It's not like the Sacklers just agreed to cough up 4.3B to purchase their innocence or anything. What cpuld go wrong?

Like every other moronic claim you’ve come up with, this is spectacular Dunning Kruger ignorance. Impressive…claiming to know medical history and in the process showing your entire ass crack to the world.

You don‘t know what sterilizing immunity is. It means that a vaccine is created whereby the host isn’t infected at all. That’s what you’re claiming every vaccine does, but as usual your Neanderthal brain is left to guessing, lying, and misleading. The large majority of vaccines do not have sterilizing immunity nor is it necessary. You know why? Infections are not diseases unless they persist and worsen.

Yes, MOST vaccines are effective despite not preventing initial infections. You don’t understand the very basics of what you’re talking about once again as diarrhea oozes out of your mouth.

What is sterilizing immunity and do we need it for the coronavirus?

Neutralizing antibodies prevent the virus from replicating.

Coronavirus: few vaccines prevent infection – here's why that's not a problem

Sterilising immunity means that the immune system is able to completely prevent a virus from replicating in your body. Not all vaccines provide this.

In general, most vaccines do not completely prevent infection but do prevent the infection from spreading within the body and from causing disease.

No he didn't start a second career. He simply continued the first one.

Instead of auditioning sub-UDFA-quality Safeties for the PS, how about auditioning CBs, ILBs, WRs & OLmen for the 53, Bill?

Like whom? Please tell us about all of these talented players who are sitting at home jobless but are worthy of a spot on the 53. Please tell us whom Bill and the rest of the GMs across the league are missing out on. You had been pounding the table for Jurrell Casey but he just retired so it seems as though Bill was right about that one and you were wrong.

Just give us one name at each of those positions. I’ll be ready to deploy the dying laughing emoji.

Over the past ~29 years, i've learned there is a line that should not be crossed. In that instance, didn't feel as if it was crossed.
