The only move worse than letting MJD go is signing MJD.

I'd rather have felt bad about having an offensive weapon than having nothing at all, though. When all is said and done, I traded away my starting RB (Helu), WR (Garcon), and second rounder for a third rounder pretty much.

Yeah but at least you didn't compound the bad trade by resigning the guy.

McNeily: you wouldn't have paid what he got paid, right?

Welcome to Carolina.

Or the whole thing:

Panthers get:

Jeremy Maclin, WR
Eagles 3rd Round Pick

Eagles get:

Jon Beason, MLB
David Gettis, WR

Eagles become even more of a ridiculous team. You better win a championship now, CB.

I mean I would've attempted to bid and rebid depending on what he wanted. I had 18mil in free space. He's getting paid, what, 13-14m a year? Yeah its ridiculous but I can't even use that money on anything now! I guess I can try and grab whatever trash is left in the WR pool after the draft.

Lol and the worst thing is that I might not even be at the draft because the Redskins game is so close to the start of it. I wasn't mad about missing the first few rounds a day ago (because I don't have a first or second rounder and it takes an hour or so to get through those rounds).

Playing random games is such a waste of time. You can't work on anything normal because they're always doing the same thing over and over. You'd think this guy would stop pulling Aldon Smith off of the line when I keep running Sproles right at the spot he left. Even with the 49er AI defense helping him out, I still ended up with ~150 yards on 25 carries.

There was nothing in the WR pool to begin with. All this FA period had was DEs and MJD.

I guess I see a few HBs in the draft that are decent. I just hope they last until the 3rd round. Same with some WRs.

Does anyone want to play a game?

What kind of crap is this? FA was only open for an hour? Who the fuck needs 27 hours to scout

My sentiments bro, I thought I would have more time to bid in the 2nd and 3rd rounds because when they say "Bidding starts at 11 and goes till the games start" that I thought rounds would go a bit slower

but no, they don't give a fuck about you or me

Bidding was open over night/in the wee hours of the morning! I guess that time span is more suited for everyone rather than morning to afternoon.

But then again I wouldn't have been in this situation if Madden didn't screw me over.

It was also open in the early evening and all morning until noon. Don't pretend you were put upon.

I'm not. I didn't say everyone was against me. I just wasn't around. What I don't get is that scouting is given a longer time frame than bidding. Since everyone can do scouting on their own time.

It's because scouting is the last step before the draft and we are going to draft tomorrow. That's the whole reason we agreed on a time to do all the steps before the draft!

1. we had to work FA/scouting/draft around the playoff games this weekend
2. you think FA bidding should be longer than scouting? some of us had 40-50k worth of scouting points. i spent about an hour yesterday and another hour today doing nothing but scouting. i spent maybe 2 minutes on my FA bidding
3. check your PM's

intangibles, motherfucker
I think a mix of a weak FA Class and most people being around this morning made it move quicker than anyone expected.


Edit: stop trying to pawn off frank gore you shameless asshole

Yes I think FA should be longer than scouting. FA requires everyone to be there. Scouting can be done at anytime. It may be longer; however, you also have all season to do the scouting. FA bidding only happens once.

worse kept secret ever.

WR Roddy White can be had for the right price. Make some offers, all will be considered.

Sources are telling me GM DCX is having a tough time moving Roddy White. Perhaps he'll need to take a lesser offer than initially anticipated.
