Yeah Rubin outplayed Mebane last year and this year's draft is extremely deep at DT, so Mebane had to go. Very likely we take a DT with one of our first 2 picks.
The Salary Cap exploding makes him the highest paid DE in the league, Mack and Miller will easily get more when it's their turn.
McClain's losing his touch. Hope he writes that out on print for tomorrow's Chronicle.

Defense has been in at the bottom of the league four years running now? Most of you would be pissing and moaning about how Reese did nothing to address this or that position if these deals weren't being made. It's nice to show patience NOW and go on about how to build a team. I don't see people showing that patience while your calling for his head during the season.
It's a three year deal for all intents and purposes....for a team that's completely in reload mode in an absolute garbage division with a 35 year old Super Bowl winning QB still playing at a high level. Oh and with a shitload of money to burn.

Damn thought for sure he was gonna stay. Didn't think we would give him 3 years though, just use him as a stopgap while we develop someone from the draft.

I mean, I know I sortof payed a *little* less attention to football last season because I was so busy, but who the fuck is Oliver Vernon? What the fuck?
I'm not ecstatic about Osweiler but I don't dislike the deal either. 4yr/$72 million deal means if he doesn't perform they can probably get rid of him in 2 years. If he does pretty well then that'd be great. But it's better than spinning your wheels like the Texans have been and it's better than Hoyer or any of the potential QBs in the draft.
The Lamar Miller signing I do like. It was time to move on from Arian Foster. Alfred Blue just isn't very good.

maybe hawks shud get potroast?
Nah Knighton is completely done. Should replace via draft.
Good... get him out of the NFC West... ever since he popped up, he started fucking us up.
not that I think Blaine and the 9ers are going to do anything...... the Denver Kaepernicks tho?
Kaepernick is about to have the highest selling jersey once again.
edit- and the Texans stay making the wrong decisions at QB. smh.. all that talent on that team. (or atleast you would think so with how they make it so far with no QBs.)

Honestly the only person that should be pissed at the Giants right now is Tom Coughlin.

I'm just waiting on the Panthers big money move at safety to be resigning Roman Harper.

I'm hoping alot of the ifffy roster decisions that were made recently were on him personally (Kuhn; Kuhn; and Kuhn).
Depends on the guaranteed money. If that $37M is actually pure guaranteed money, it will be spread out over those 4 years so if you cut him after 2 years you'll still eat some significant dead cap over the remaining two. To the tune of $18.5M.
We'll have to see the actual contract to determine that of course, but you can't really escape that guaranteed money for the most part.
yay?

Don't troll like this.
Not right now. People are in real serious pain, don't you get that Spinluck?
People are hurting as if they just ate 1 too many (i.e. 1) of your world-renowned dinners.

Either my sarcasm detector is broken or you have a very loose definition of 'elite'.
@bylindsayhjones
Chiefs also fined $250K; Andy Reid fined $75K and John Dorsey $25K for illegal contact w/ Maclin while he was still an Eagle.
Paper thin depth at CB, and garbage at LB and S.
Now to see who they sign as low and mid tier FA's.
At least the GMen are spending money where they need to be unlike a certain AFC North team I won't mention.
This Free Agency period is stunning. I can't believe the Texans spent $126 million in 50 minutes:
Osweiler: $72 million
Miller: $26 million
Allen: $28 million
Their GM guaranteed himself a job through the season by going after these players. Texans fans how does it feel to have a good offseason thus far?

Crazy day so far.
Sad to see Snacks go, happy about the Forte pickup depending on the salary.
Wouldn't be surprised if we lose Fitz now though, Broncos need to grab a QB will probably make a solid run at him.

I doubt it.
They'll draft someone if necessary, and maybe bring in some vets in the meantime.

not really. this is a league where fucking Brock just got paid close to $20 mil a year. i think the niners could take it or leave it. what is the point of trading kap for a 4th rounder?
p.s.
its down to the niners and raiders for sean smith!
Enjoy the penalties!
Is he your starter next year?
On one hand, I'm REALLY fucking bummed about losing Mebane.
On the other, that frees up a lot of money for other stuff.
Losing Sweezy is pretty big too as much as I didn't like him. We REALLY need Okung back now.
I feel like we're losing a ton of people and not really bringing in anybody. Remember when everyone wanted to come play for Seattle?
