Why not? Isn’t going to hurt to kick this tire.

I like it. Big. Fast. Something to prove

Awe. You came out of a cave to post your 74th post to comment on me. I feel special

Damn, that's a brutal receiver room.

Wish in one hand, 💩 in the other, and see which one fills up first. 😉 One guy just signed a very nice multi-year 2nd contract, and the other a vet min. Yet somehow they are comparable players?

Power is definitely on Beane's agenda. Whether Cephus or Claypool make the team isn't the issue. They are symptoms of a trend supported by the drafting of Coleman and Ray Davis and the signing of Hollins. Beane/McD/Brady want to be able to control the clock and beat people into submission if necessary. Someone else mentioned that Cook wore down late in the season. Cook also isn't a "physical" runner, but Ray Davis is. They also aren't ignoring speed. Samuel and Hamler are burners. Shakir and Cook are also fast. Seems to me that management wants a team where they can be flexible in their game plan to exploit holes in the defense. We'll go deep on teams the stack the box, run against teams play nickel and dime, and throw short and medium passes on teams the play 2 deep zone. They are also trying to solve our issues in the redzone. They have gone bigger and strong to be able to pound out yards without giving Josh a pounding.

Hamler looks skinnier to me than Lil Dirty. He's more like Deonte Harty or Roscoe Parrish. If he makes the team, he'll make a handful of eye popping plays and spend half the season on IR.

Of all the scenarios, I can't see them starting VPG at LG. IMHO if he starts anywhere on the OL, it's center.

I don't mind the approach at all. But we still need a number 1 receiver. Maybe Coleman becomes that guy, but it is a major question mark at the moment.

I'm giving Claypool the benefit of the doubt over the trainwreck that is the Chicago Bears. Can you name a receiver in the last 5 years that has panned out for the Bears? Me neither. These GMs play politics to cover up their own mistakes. Fields is a bust so let's blame it on the receivers to save our job. Suddenly the Steelers are talking bout Fields running back kicks! Isn't that tacit admission that he's inept as a passer? Claypool wasn't going to get many looks in Miami being the new guy in town with Hill and Waddle. This signing is all upside.

Maybe the reason they drafted all those team captains was because they knew the needed the types of players to mentor and uplift the bad citizen they really had in their sights, Chase Claypool!

Exactly... @SDS you wanna change the Wall logo to Statler and Waldorf? Seems more appropriate for the clientele..

Do they though? They were in contact with Beckham a while before the draft. They reportedly offered him a contract then. After meeting with them 31 other teams had the opportunity to sign him at what appears to be a severely reduced rate from what he was making in years past. Yet there he was not scooped up. Kind of tells me where the league views him as a player. He's past the "hot commodity" prime and on to signing on the same day as the Chase Claypools of the world.

Hey if Allen can handle Diggs, he can handle claypool 😉

The decline in your ability to be an objective and open minded poster is also faster than Coleman 😁

Hate to see it NE.

I applaud Lurch for his position on this and apologize to Frankish for doing so.

Huh?

And what was Diggs? A big pain in the ass in the locker room. It was tolerated until he became ass on the field too in the second half of this season. Now he is someone else's problem. Claypool has some ability. Its a good low cost signing. Maybe he will get it together finally, playing with a QB like Josh Allen.

Oh yea and even for the people down on tua he’s objectively way better than fields/kenny Pickett

Claypool, Hamler, Isabella, Cephus, Shorter, Shavers…we probably have the most talented WR room 5 through 10 on the depth chart, whatever that’s worth.

Honestly, if you told me Claypool was going to sign with an AFC contender I would have picked the Chiefs all day long.

Campaigns are required to disclose their spending. Paying for an in-kind contribution to the campaign from his business (instead of the campaign itself) and not properly reporting it, Trump violated the disclosure requirement. Had he paid Daniels from the campaign, Trump would not have this legal exposure to the Manhattan DA. He might have faced a fine at worst from the FEC. But then he would have to disclose the payments to the FEC, which makes the reports public. So he took actions to conceal a payment that he believed would help him win the election and thereby cause Hillary lose it. This creates legal exposure for Trump under a couple of laws, mainly: NY Law 17-152: Conspiracy to promote or prevent election 52 USC § 30118 Notably, the FEC reached a settlement with AMI over AMI's violation of 52 USC § 30118(a) for the catch and kill of the McDougal story

As long as we don't shank a punt.
