A little over a day left to get a new CBA done. Well, that's not entirely accurate. In 2006 they extended the then current CBA a week because they were close enough to get it ironed out. So, there is very little possibility of the thing being done by tomorrow.

....But, if we hear they are extending the current CBA by a week or two you know they are close and barring a last second change there will be no lockout.

so...because I don't know...ya...that's right, I in fact don't know everything so fug you ok...get off my back you mother fuger....anyway....if the deal is not even close and the current contract expires without an extension, does this automagically mean a lock out for sure, and if so, does it wipe the entire season???

or...do they still have the ability to let the current contract expire, keep working and salvage all/part of the season??

Good guy to listen to on these issues is Muhsin Muhammad. He used to work as a player rep. And while yes, he tends to approach it from a player's perspective, he has a better understanding of the issues involved than most of the guys covering the NFL.

      Trading #8

      some of my favorite mocks i do are trading back with Indy or Miami, but not Arizona, as that lets Hotlanta pick before us.

      Who Has to Be Off the Board to Trade Back?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Carter, Graham, and Hunter for me. Other than that I'm listening to offers. Hell, I'm listening to offers anyway. I'm not doing the Gettleman thing of submitting the pick immediately. If the phones are ringing there's no cost to listening. Maybe someone has an offer so good that I can't refuse.

      These numbers do not measure a player's prime. Do these numbers include OL pulled up from the practice squad for a game or two then cut?  Do they include players who might have been injured or cut for reasons other than they were past their primes?  The average career for an NFL lineman is 3.63 years, and that is because there is a lot of turnover--regardless of a player's prime. In fact, if only 55% of Offensive linemen drafted in the first round succeed, then the failure rates of most offensive linemen drafted and undrafted would be much lower, cause them to skew the average age of the OL.  This suggests that most players' retirement from the NFL is not based on their prime, but other factors.  They are cut, released, injured--and that is based on their level of play compared to others, not their levels of play within their personal skill range--something that peaks during your prime. In this case, I was talking about Moton, an elite offensive tackle, one that avoided the factors that shorten careers unrelated to their primes. I identify Moton as the team's best offensive lineman on an impressive OL--that distinguishes the type of player being referenced, so I did not provide a lot of qualifiers--as you didn't with your stats.   In this article below, one that evaluates established Offensive tackles, it states the following, which supports my comment:  "Most elite offensive tackles start to decline at roughly the age of 32 if they haven’t already."  So to say that Moton was at the end of his prime was not a reach or careless speculation.  If a player has the skill to be competitive and they can avoid injuries, their career expectancy is much higher than an average of all offensive lineman on a fluid roster. https://www.milehighreport.com/2017/2/27/14724674/age-wall-for-offensive-tackles-nfl
