  1. Yeah and for those saying its a culture move... what culture do we currently have that we are worried about messing up. Plus if chuba is the make or break for our culture... regardless, bad move. I would have preferred to let chuba walk, reduce sanders snaps to 0 since we couldn't showcase his no talent enough for a trade, and play chuba/brooks/Dillon Johnson (on our practice squad), see what we have with the young guys, and make a decision in the offseason.
  2. Literally where i am at with this. I mean its hard to hate chuba. But this was a bad business move.
  3. Well Dallas basically said fug RB after we drafted brooks. Not sure if they are a good example. They could've used a late round pick. Some of those late round RBs are playing pretty good. They just went all in on the ghosts of elliott and cook for some reason.
  4. That's like saying Rhule drafted a football player, not a long snapper (joke). Position does have to play a role in this. I just don't think its a move we should have made. Is it a culture move? Sure I'll agree on that. Was it the right move? I guess we will have to watch it play out and see.
  5. We are trying to create a winning culture by doing things that winning teams don't do? I am not mad at the extension. It's just not the move I would have made.
  6. If you look at teams that do it right, you build the OL. Most average RBs look above average behind top OLs. You build and invest in the OL. Good teams only pay/invest high assets into the RB position when they have the luxury to do so. You definitely don't do it in the early stages of the rebuild due to the NFL life expectancy of a RB. You won't have a young brooks let alone a young chuba once we are out of the rebuild.
  7. I don't think I would've minded maybe a 2 year extension vs. the 4 year they gave him. I get it, realistically, you don't expect brooks to come in and explode on the scene. You also didn't draft brooks to be a bell-cow kind of back. I think a 2 year extension to build brooks into the lead back while also drafting chuba's replacement either 2025 or 2026 and work him in. Brooks was a sanders replacement and not a chuba replacement that much is evident. Personally, I would have let him walk and brought in a bigger back via draft. Personally I don't like chuba and brooks being double trouble. I would prefer to pair either one with a bigger RB.
  8. A few things i loved from this video: XL hype on JT long gain Chuba giving pre-game speech JT telling the OL they deserve this win before the final drive
  9. I thought we only had 1 pick in the 2nd (via Rams), bears has our original pick
  10. I would lower expectations on the 10 to 15. Chuba is barely getting 20 touches a game. Unless DC magically starts running the ball more (like he said he would), I don't expect Brooks to get to 10 to 15 carries (other than an unexpected chuba injury).
  11. Why did the Steelers trade him? They traded him and then turned around and are in the market for a WR, why?
  12. The Los Angeles Chargers are in the market for a wide receiver and could be looking to New England to acquire one. The team is one of the clubs that has an interest in veteran K.J. Osborn, according to the Boston Sports Journal. (Sorry for not posting tweet, at work and just looking at CBS sports trade deadline rumor tracker)
  13. This saves us 2M in cap space next season correct? Not big but just want to confirm
  14. Marshon Lattimore deal heating up apparently
  15. I think its more of a just in case measure... doubt they actually move him for cap reasons. Could be wrong, but i doubt it.
  16. Honestly will prolly take us sending a pick and paying sanders salary to move him
  17. TMJ... i mean mingo for a 4th... that's just a good ole fashioned robbery in broad daylight
  18. i thought we only had 9 picks, this is showing 10? Thought we had 9 and we traded a 7th receiving a 4th. does this not reflect the 7th being traded?
