man those two would kill each other. literally.

also, god, stop with the whole "HE WONT SPEND A DIIIMMEE!!!" he has spent money in the past, he will again. No excuse for this shitty season but come on...

When was the last time we signed a big time free agent? I remember one year, we wasted a ton of money on Sean Gilbert and Doug Evans who both sucked. If anything, it must have scared ownership because I remember us being cheap since then and having to get excited when we'd signed washed up talent like Keyshawn Johnson or overrated talent like David Carr. I don't remember big time free agents even visiting us recently.

I know Jerry spend money in the past. Sure. BUT it's been awhile.

We went after some receiver from Seattle who bottomed out. We also went after Ken Lucas. We got Chris Harris. The FO has a history of going out and getting good players when it thinks they're worth the price. I just don't see him as cheap. You can argue the talent evaluation is poor and therefore we don't jump when we should, but I think we have had some great FA signings over the years, that while they may not have cost a ton, show he isn't exactly trying JUST to be cheap... he just sees no reason in spending money without a good reason.

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
