I agree, they will probably target someone in the second. RB is one position that will probably have a run going in the second with multiple RBs flying off the board.

Well, Detroit has stuck with him for how long now? They obviously see something the rest of us don't.
Or they're just stubborn. It's hard to say which.
How so? Bradford still has value around the league. You could trade him and get some value back. Or keep him and let him play. If he tears it up, well then you in the fortunate position of having two valuable assets at the most important position on the field.
2 linemen who have ever started a game, Kenny Britt, Tre Mason and Tavon

Does Stills to MIA put Wallace on the chopping block?

Antrel Rolle just finished his last appearance with Joe and Evan.
Thanked the NY fans. Says he has a tattoo of NY on his chest and no matter what, he'll always be Big Blue in his heart but he wants to continue his career. He was very emotional throughout.
Trel was on the decline last year but you're getting a hell of a leader, Chicago. If he still has something left in the tank, your defense will benefit greatly from it.
I wish him the best. Things were rocky early on but he quickly converted into a Coughlin team first dude and he had some great years with us.

No ones paying a high price when they know that MM is going to be Chips QB. Then you have to take into consideration how pissed Murray is going to be. Bradford was a huge influence on him coming here and now you've benched/traded him before they ever took a snap together.
Bradford is our QB.
You aren't getting it. I already said Bradford is the plan. I don't think they are moving up to get Mariota.
That said if he slips and is there at 20 there is no way in the world Chip doesn't take him
God dammit Saints you fucks
At least Cajun loves when his team sucks, that should help with the 5 year rebuild

Option B there combined with his contract that makes him immovable.
I wanted him to the Bears, supposedly they offered Chicago him for a first. I would have taken that, but I guess Pace is gonna go after defense or a lineman
I don't expect him to play great, but he will be a great locker room leader. You never hear NY media or NY fans talk great about a guy who leaves, for some reason you guys love this dude, and I'm excited to see what he can do to the mess of a locker room we have.

I guess the patriots have a plan
Yeah. I went to Georgia and worked with the AD office some when i was working on the Ga Bulldog Radio Network. I'm still somewhat close to a lot of the guys that were there in the early 00s and i eat, breathe, and dream georgia football. Gurley is the best college RB i've seen in at least 10 years with the possible exception of AP. If he's there I think Dallas should grab him.
You then ignore a hole at either G, CB, S, or WR to draft a backup QB if we still start Bradford. Chip is making win now moves, having Bradford and MM on the roster doesn't make much sense.

75% chance Hardy's mystery team doesn't exist
20% it's the Raiders
4% it's the Bags
.8% it's the Patriots
.2% someone else
Happy Birthday mech and bread
EDIT: Jaguars auto corrected to Bags. That seems appropriate though.

That's the least of his troubles. The real problem is the colossal drop in the quality of his protection. Then you have jack and shit for him to throw to and you have why I give zero fucks about Foles going to a division rival. I'd rather they stuck with Bustford just in case they ever draft some offensive talent, eventually. This isn't the best division for him to have crap protection against either.
Get a young player with NFL experience you know can play, versus drafting a WR you have no idea what he can do.
I was hoping it was a typo but damn you are serious

Brees gonna just throw to the opposing teams, I guess
If Gurley is available at 27, there are probably question marks about his availability early in the season. Investing a huge asset in a player that wouldn't be available early doesn't seem smart especially when there will be capable backs later in the draft. If you draft Gurley, and say he isn't ready what do you do then? You already invested a first round pick to the RB position, are you going to invest another pick as an insurance for Gurley.

Really? There's been a number of guys that have moved on from the Giants that have gotten love from us and from the media. Justin Tuck when he went to the Raiders comes to mind. He'll retire a Giant one day (same for Antrel, IMO).
Antrel was feast of famine on the back end. He could make some great plays and at other times take some really poor angles and get burned. He was asked to play nickel corner for nearly an entire season (he's a converted corner) and played that pretty decently despite being signed as a safety. Ultimate team guy.
Like I said though, he quickly became a vocal leader and was nominated as a defensive captain twice by his teammates. Apparently John Fox told him to completely be himself and let loose in the locker room. That's the biggest addition he'll bring to the Bears. If you can get something out of him on the field, even better. Last season was a really poor season for him play wise. Hopefully he comes in with a chip on his shoulders for you guys.
One thing - he never missed a game for the Giants. 84 games played with the team. Very healthy.
He'd fit the void we have right now. Alshon is the 1, Royal is the slot, Martellus is the TE, we need a #2 and can draft a #3 later in the draft eventually. Pace will pull a Millen and draft a meh WR in the early rounds.

I hate free agency
Trust me, your receiving core is NOT your void right now. Giving up a 1st for another receiver would be Trestman-esque
A first round pick for Kenny Stills?
I mean they clearly have no idea what theyre doing right now, sending scouts to watch Mariotta as if they can get him at #7? Everyone in Chicago is blowing Pace already, and he's just Emery 2.0. GM still being told what to do by Phillips.

Gurley is good enough that if he doesn't play until the 2nd half of the year, it's still a good investment. I think Randle and McFadden can be productive behind that line. Neither of them is going to all of a sudden look like Murray, but they'll keep the running game going until Gurley is ready. Gurley is a guy that Dallas would have zero shot at getting if he didn't get hurt. He was a top 10 talent, when there really isn't many of those at the RB position. Gurley is a stud.
Why? This is fun!
It's our mess of a defense. Which still is paying an old Jared Allen to play on grass. Clearly they know what they are doing there.
It is certainly a lot more fun coming off of a SB win.
No, you just give the ball to one of the other 4 rbs you have on the roster.

Ellerbe for Stills and Miami's third rounder.
CJ Spiller signs with the Saints. Looks like Reggie Bush will probably end up joining the Patriots.
Not a bad return, honestly. I wouldn't have done it, but a 3rd is fine.

Dolphins will get WR Kenny Stills, Saints get LB Dannell Ellerbe and Miami's third-rounder, per source.
