Yep, I think Morgan would start opposite CJ with Ealy getting plenty of rotational snaps.

Yep. I want nothing to do with Cotchery starting again. #2 WR needs an upgrade.

Anyway to confirm if this is legit or not? Not familiar with that Twitter account.

Chip Kelly has lost his cotdamn mind.

I'm not taking a side on that one, nor did I intend to start a debate on the matter. I'm just saying that's been Elway's stance on Thomas all along. He never even entertained the thought of giving him a big money deal.

Our rookie WR wasn't the most polished player in the league and dropped some balls! Fug the fact that he had 1000+ receiving yards - a feat very, very few rookie WRs achieve - he fuging sucks!!!

Living here in CO, I can tell you that Elway was pretty adamant all along that Julius Thomas isn't an elite TE and shouldn't be paid like one. I think most people thought he was bluffing. Pretty clear now that he wasn't.

I don't think Chandler is a lock to make the roster in the least. There's no savings by releasing him this year, but it doesn't really hurt us in terms of dead money either. It's essentially a wash. He was horrific last year. Worse than Bell even.

On a cheap contract as a backup? I'd be fine with it. My fear is that Rivera would want to start him.

I like the idea of him playing for an AFC team. I want the AFC to sign all the elite players who don't come to Carolina.

Re-do that draft today and KB goes before #28. Not sure if he qualifies as a "steal" just because it's hard to truly qualify any 1st round pick as a steal. You expect those guys to be good, but he was definitely a great value pick. Now, Bene in the 5th? Norwell as a UFA? Those are steals.

IMO, you simply can't spend that type of money on any player who isn't a franchise QB when you're dealing with a hard salary cap. Suh is a beast, but my god...

I'll be the first to admit that the drops were frustrating, but to call KB's rookie season a disappointment is a statement that is worthy of nothing but ridicule. If anyone would've asked any of us when we drafted him at #28 if we'd be happy if KB had 1000 receiving yards and 9 TDs as a rookie, every single one of us would've HAPPILY taken that. There were a lot of posts from posters saying they'd be happy with 600 yards. Hell, historically, 600 yards is a pretty damn good rookie season for a WR. 1000 yards for a rookie is HUGE.

Pretty much the truth.

Yeah, Demaryius Thomas and Dez Bryant are both clearly a grade above Randall Cobb. That's no knock on Cobb. Thomas and Bryant are ELITE NFL WRs. Cobb is a WR coming off of a really nice season. He's only had one 1000 yard season. He had 1287 yards last year. Meanwhile, Thomas has had three straight 1400+ yard seasons including last year's 1619 yards. Bryant has had three straight 1200 yard seasons including last season's 1320 yards. Bryant has 41 TDs in the last three seasons. Thomas has 35. Cobb has 24. Cobb is good, but he's no Demaryius Thomas or Dez Bryant. Then again, that's why he signed for "only" 4 years/$40M with $17M guaranteed while Thomas and Bryant had to be franchise tagged.

If the team that drafted him in the 1st round and groomed him into the player that he is doesn't think he's worth it, then he's probably not worth it.

I hope Smith goes to SF. I have to imagine they'd release Stevie Johnson if that happens and to be honest, I'd rather have Johnson.

Hell, if the 49ers would cut Johnson and we could get him, I'd let 'em have Torrey Smith. Johnson was a beast for a terrible Bills team.

What was Stevie Johnson? At some point, they just have to admit that it's the guy throwing the ball.

He knows he's digging his own grave. At this point though, he has no choice to just keep digging and ride it out as long as he can - i.e. when Brees retires.

Yep, the Saints just keep kicking the can down the road. They'll keep doing it as long as they can keep Brees playing. At some point though, the poo will hit the fan for them with the cap just like it did for us. The difference is that when it hit the fan for us, we were able to land a young franchise QB. It'll be hitting the fan for them as they lose their franchise QB. Gonna be bags on heads again in N.O. before long.

DeAngelo's age and recent production kills his market on it's own. IMO, he's probably a vet min come in and fight for a roster spot type guy at this point.

Megatron and Gronk both struggled with injuries this season. Meanwhile, Ingram had by far his best pro season. Horrible comparisons.
