NFC East better be Eagles.



Why not Eagles. With Bradford signed its looking less and less like they stick with a QB at 13.

Agree completely. Prescott is like a (much) lesser version of Wilson when he came into the league. Really good mobile QB, weak passing QB. Let me be clear Prescott doesn't nearly have Wilson's athleticism and talent, and I am in no way saying they are equal. Just that the similarities are there. Prescott would be a great pickup in the later rounds with our scenario, since he would get two years to ride the bench and develop his passing skills. Hopefully DeFillippo and Reich would be able to mold him into a passer while he sits.

I'm told Brice McCain's deal with the #Titans is for $5M over two years. Base salary of $2.2M per.

He's not very good. He played decently under LeBeau in Pittsburgh, hence him signing with LeBeau in Tennessee.

He's a far better slot corner than anything we had last year and we used his as our number 2....when you sign guys like him it's usually to patch up some holes because they are at least decent doing certain things...and the Dolphins just forced him into a role he's not good at and he even said he was the most comfortable in the slot not on the outside when we signed him.

I was surprised to see he was planning on visiting Pittsburgh if things didn't work out with Tennessee.

Of course I have no idea what the plan is for our DBs. Looks like Gay, Golden, Blake, Boykin and Allen are all UFAs.

I'd be happy to see the end of Blake. I'm kinda surprised we haven't re-upped Gay, but he's 31 and maybe there's some concerns about term and amount there. I thought he played pretty well last season, but then with Blake on the other side why would you ever need to look in Gay's direction?

I'd like Boykin back. When he finally got on the field he made plays, but we underused him criminally and I could see him getting bigger money elsewhere.

Allen is likely gone unless he sign him for a one year deal (he's 33).

Given that this is most of our secondary, I'm just a bit perplexed that we haven't at least re-signed someone from this group. I can't imagine we think we're going to draft/sign an entire new secondary (minus Mitchell).

Since we no longer have ez on RBH's ticket I support a RBH/rando ticket.

I hope once they are elected they pardon eznark, bionic, AT, and jak for false crimes.

The Steelers need to sign Gay before free agency begins. He actually has some value. Boykin probably wants to go somewhere that will actually play him. Every single one of the rest of those guys can eat a bag of dicks. They all suck. The Steelers will probably resign Blake and have him start instead of Gay...

Put me in for the 49ers. I love this time of year.

Two of our biggest contributors are gone and one of them is permanently gone? This thread got a lot shittier. Seems like most of his comments were in jest...

Put me in together with Doomsayer for a 3rd year in row, we have always been able to get a good idea of what the team needs to draft.

I think the Steelers will actually play Boykin if he were to come back. We were just scumbags who didn't play him due to the prospective draft pick tied to our team's usage of him.

I hope Gay is signed as well. His dances alone are worth the price of admission. Who would have thought he'd become the anchor of our secondary after his first stint with the team?

So John McClain of the Houston Chronicle said in his weekly chat to expect the Texans to announce re-signings for center Jones and RG Brooks early next week and Foster will be released.

Going by McClains history: Foster retained and Jones and Brooks will sign elsewhere.

Yes we have!

I'm pretty curious about this year though... I think we either go Defense and try and trade up for one of the QBs or just draft a QB straight up.
 
think Seahawks will make a move on Alex Mack? I liked how Lewis turned things around last year so I'm not sure.

Also, are we getting purged? MRSA just got banned too.

Colts Concerned About Condition of Andrew Luck’s Shoulder?

According to Jason Cole of B/R, there’s concern within the Colts about the condition of QB Andrew Luck‘s shoulder that cost him some games last year.

Luck has been rehabbing his shoulder during the offseason, but the Colts have reportedly tried to get Luck to see a new specialist regarding the injury.
Cole mentions that Luck’s shoulder remains a long-term concern for the team moving forward.

Usually would just blow this off but it would explain why the Colts havent moved on Lucks extension.

OMG it's the end of days

*runs away into the night

The way he was going on I think it was obvious it would probably happen

Fuck that sucks so much. We are losing all the people that would post about football in this thread.

And the thread moves on. I like 98% of the people who post here and just tune out the nonsense when it happens. If you have an opinion either way fine you should but dont try to take the thread down with you in some "glorious" fashion to feed your internet ego.

If you dont want to be here and abide by the rules then just leave. Utilize the damn ignore feature if certain posters bother you. To hell with that "its cowardly" nonsense to use the ignore feature. I catch myself posting more at Battle Red Blog @SBNation more lately but I still get news and entertainment here.

Browns C Alex Mack is voiding the 3 years remaining on his contract and is set to become a free agent, per source. One more free agent OL.

Was to be expected. Thankfully we got the great Cameron Erving though. Thanks Ray!

Agreed.

I mean I am not evens opposed to drafting Lynch or Goff if they fall to 13 (to start in year 2 or 3) but at worst the Eagles should draft Prescott in the 3rd round to make sure they have someone who they can develop and grow.

Luck's shoulder is an issue? That's not good. He has an okay arm but it's not anything special. He can't afford to lose velocity

Lmao, Jason Cole friend, his sources are as good as Breadstream's and my grandma's cats (my grandma doesn't have cats).

A shoulder injury isn't what kept Luck out. You can stop the concern trolling now.

Wasnt trolling, as I stated I usually would just blow it off. Why havent the Colts moved on an extension for Luck? What is the incentive to wait while QB salaries rise with each contract signed?

Foster is staying. I'll eat onions covered in mustard if I'm wrong.

He suffered that injury around the Bills and Jets game, and then the Pats game is where it was noticeable. In the Panthers game you could see bits of it too, that one was in pouring rain...

He then styled on the Broncos the following week, and sustained the injury that put him out for the year on a scramble...

He'll be fine, if not, I'm sure the Broncos wouldn't mind another Colts gift. ;__;

It's weird, they canceled some backorders (see Mrsa's post) and put new orders up ...

Yeah, I think I'll probably just grab the regular Conquest from Best Buy and download Birthright. Gotta get a MicroSD for the New 3DS I just got anyway
