Yep, this checks out. Very on brand with how you've come across online.

Gonna be some good eatin' tonight

If you're in the left lane, look to the right. Is there someone beside you? Are you soon overtaking someone in the right lane immediately ahead of you? No and no? Then get the fug over. That's how it's supposed to work. Doesn't matter if you're going 100.

From a roster building perspective I understand putting CMC on there given that he's one of the best receiving backs ever. But the way these teams are usually structured in terms of sheer merit not sure about that one.

Obviously Armanti. LOL

This is the time for positivity. Everyone is undefeated and coming off of an off-season of hopefully helpful moves. We'll find out what the reality is soon enough.

The perks of being a respected organization that fields a contending team.

Honestly Woods was pretty trash. Tackles can very much be a double edged sword for a DB. Can be because he's really good in run support or can be because he's giving up a lot of completions.

I just want us to focus on the rest of the league not leaving a mark on us because so far during the Tepper era it's right on our forehead and kinda shaped like a mushroom.

All that really matters in NFL contracts are the guarantees. Everything else can disappear with the stroke of a pen to release you.

Bingo.

Win some games. Then you can talk. But this just rings hollow when we've done nothing but lose since Tepper bought the team.

Yeah, they've really fuged this up. I still think something happened post-draft that made them regret taking him and now they're stuck between a rock and a hard place. You either give the guy the contract his draft status dictates or you trade him for whatever you can get. Those are really the only two choices you have.

Because they think he's gonna bust and they want to be able to wiggle out of the deal. Everyone knew he was boom or bust. I think something happened since the draft that makes them think he's a bust.

Yeah, when you draft a guy you have to understand and realize you're going to be giving him a contract commensurate with that draft position. It is what it is. If you don't want to do that for anyone on the board, trade down. Hell, pull a Vikings and sit on your ass and let the time run out and the next team up pick. LOL! But don't draft the guy and then think you're going to get away with some contract shenanigans. Hell, his agent can't allow it looking out for his own interests. If Stewart was willing to sign a deal wildly out of step with the norm on a bad way his agent would probably tell him he's got a walk. If I want to sign future 1st round draft prospects I can't be a part of this.

Here something else to consider. We're already heavily reliant on rookies at EDGE rusher with two 2nd round rookies on the roster. If you add a third that's going to be three rookies on that unit and you're going to have to bounce a vet. That scenario had Wonnum included in the trade along with a 2nd and a 4th. Three rookies on one unit just seems like a bad idea. Rookies need a lot of coaching and development and you're going to be stretching that thing while also requiring them to play a lot of snaps.

Something happened. Anyone drafting him knew they were drafting a boom or bust guy who had to a lot of potential but hadn't done much of anything on an actual football field. Something happened between the draft and now to make them have buyer's remorse on that pick.

They've spent all their cap on a QB and two WRs. Re-signing Tee Higgins to a mega deal was a serious mistake IMO. They don't have a defense or an OL. They were in a situation where they had to let him walk IMO.

Even in Scourton's down season he still managed more sacks than Stewart got in his entire collegiate career.

No. I honestly didn't think he was worth more than about a 3rd round pick to begin with and I'm not even sure I would've taken him that high. His lack of production is beyond alarming. The guy has bust written all over him. I wonder if the Bengals just finally actually watched some tape on him or something? Like oh damn, we fuged up! LOL

Sorry about the kitty, man. That really sucks.

Yeah, I think counting on a rookie 4th rounder to start would be a big mistake. Bring in a vet stopgap and if the rookie is ahead of schedule, great. But don't force it.

Good grief LOL

Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.

We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.
