Yup, read it upside-down. So much for Takitaki's 'upside'.

A couple of guys there I’d love here (Hunter and Simmons).

 

[venecol]

Why?

Why?

Are you two related?

 

[TommyD4207]

Gotta fill the holes, I like Reagor I badly want to see him do well.

I've been watching football a long time, he's got the worst hands...by a lot...that I've ever seen from a wide receiver. Need I remind everyone of the deep shot that Mac actually put on the money for once, which Reagor tried to catch with his arms completely out to his sides. He should have been cut right after that play.

Admit you said the exact same thing when you read it.

Regarding Brian Burns, I thought the NFL outlawed teams tagging players with no intention of signing them in order to trade them for draft picks?

You're going to be sleeping for a long time.

Just change his name to Rip Van Winkle

We tried to sign him but he wouldn’t take our lowball offer.

If the NFL was truly concerned they would eliminate the tag altogether.

I was wondering the same thing.

This ^ is a pretty silly quote. if they keep Duggar... not signing Justin Simmons will be a non-factor.

Tyrone Smith played decent last year for 13 games but has missed the majority of two seasons of the last four. Jonah Williams is overrated trash. I'd rather take up and coming OT's like Oli Udoh, Yosh Nijman, both under thirty, both have proven they can start in the NFL, both superior athletes coming from great lines in GB and Minny.

Ridley will not make or break them, Hollywood Brown won't either... they'd both be solid adds... but neither player has lifted their previous franchises up, nor was either considered a #1 WR by any measure. Ridley was getting outplayed by Christian Kirk until he got hurt.

They can find great WR's from the third round on, no need to overpay for average or merely good. The best way to find super weapons is to draft them.

Nick Foles was aware of how things worked and got the Eagles to remove the tag as they were trying to trade him. Some players don't understand, have bad representation/no representation or care how what power they have.

Hollywood is meh but he'd be a massive upgrade for the team.

Simmons would play center field allowing Dugger and peppers to cause chaos in the box.

A stick with a rubber glove glued to it would be an upgrade

Only if the price is right.

Chiefs are doing the same thing the Snead.

I want to see him with real coaches.
