Re: NFL things and stuff.....
[quote=That Guy;1140593]i think sanchez is probably better than rg3 or kaep, but it's got to be depressing for the broncos fans that were looking forward to this season.
I'm also not super happy about the giants and iggles getting so much better (on paper) this offseason.[/quote] Not worried about the Giants or Eagles. We all know from experience that signing free agents doesn't mean more wins. The Eagles have gone on a few spending sprees and it hasn't worked. |
Re: NFL things and stuff.....
Eagles already shipping out two of their big $ free agents from 2015.

that's a big FU to chip kelly, but they've managed to get rid of bad contracts, which never happens in the NFL. |
Re: NFL things and stuff.....
Just thought I would put this in here:
[url=http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/14974768/nfl-nflpa-move-deal-strip-roger-goodell-disciplinary-power]NFL, NFLPA move toward deal that would strip Roger Goodell of disciplinary power[/url] I honestly feel that issues pertaining discipline are one of the biggest carrots that the NFL dangles in front of the NFLPA. While I understand the need to have fair disciplinary system, I feel that the focus on this takes away from other areas such as player compensation (franchise tag, guaranteed money, etc., etc.). It's almost as the NFL says to the NFLPA, "sure we'll concede to your demands in terms of player discipline, but as long as we can keep the same system of compensation." |

Well the problem is Chandler Jones was in the running for Defensive Player of the year and Cooper is a flat out bust at guard. don't know, me think this is dumb. |
Re: NFL things and stuff.....
Better to get rid of a guy a year early vs a year late I guess.

We just saw a very average DE (malik jackson) get 90mil and 42 of that guaranteed for 14 sacks in 4 years. Here Jones is sitting on 34-36 sacks so imagine what kind of money he's going to command. BB isn't going to pay these guys JJ Watt money. He got great value for a guy they had no intentions of extending. |

Yeah still just don't like it. Cooper sux, he was probably a cut in camp. Why not WR Floyd? Or another player? Chandler jones isn't replaceable with a late 2nd round pick. I don't like it. |
Re: NFL things and stuff.....
Well, you're just a poopy head and should Google "Belichick's brilliant" to see how silly your negative ninny remark is.

That depends on the pick. It certainly puts a ton of pressure on BB to land on a pass rushing pick this draft. It's a big crap shoot really. That said, it's better than him getting nothing for allowing Jones to walk due to a insane contract. As far as Cooper goes, I can't disagree with you on that talking point. [url]https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2016/03/15/pro-grading-the-patriots-cardinals-chandler-jones-trade/[/url] Cooper has been hampered with injuries for a good part of his tenure in the NFL. Hopefully that can change, but it's still a big gamble. |

Terrible trade. BB is outsmarting himself. You have to pay someone. You can't just pay everyone on your team 5 million or less. Sometimes you have to overpay to keep your best guys. It's not like they're paying Brady Joe Flacco money. Getting rid of your best defensive player for a scrub guard and a draft pick is stupid. Pass rushers are a premium, not a guard. Makes no sense to me. |

Doesn't Belichik always pull sh*t like this all the time though? Getting rid of their best players so they don't have to pay them (if they feel that they can be replaced). Yet it always ends up working out for them. |
