    Hunt would be the best RB the Bills have had on their roster in a very long time.  Great runner and weapon in the passing game.  I doubt Cleveland moves on from him this off-season though.

    Agreed.  I think the Cle management is aware their OL is elite and when D'ernest had the opportunity in Hunt's absence, he flashed.  They can get away with a "downgrade" here and still get the production while reducing their cap number.  You could be right though, he is under contract w/o guaranteed $.

  2. Are we sure all of the "morality-based"  arguments would come to the surface if it were Tyreek Hill we were talking about bringing in?

     

    The nice part about decisions at the franchise level is they're downstream from the league.  Gives individual franchises the opportunity to then make their own decision after the league gives overall direction.  If the league decides one way/other, then it's fair game as franchises are here to win in any way possible within those boundaries.  Watch D Watson and how many teams will freaking lunge to get him if the league lets him back in.

  3. Heard this one today on a podcast:  Projected Hunt to the Bills

     

    No guaranteed $ from the Browns, probable cut candidate.  D'ernest Johnson taking his spot. $5M estimated cost.

     

    Great fit for this offense.  Not a big number for a guy that can start/handle 3 downs if need be.  Has shown ability to produce big in a 2 back timeshare as well.

     

    We know what he can do on-field.  We know off-field was ugly a few years ago.  Has kept himself out of any further issues in Cle.  

     

    Also projected Allen Robinson to Buffalo.  (God, and your salary cap team, are you listening?)

     

    I know, typical off-season sh-t but, ARob dreams aside, the Hunt possibility is a very interesting one.

     

    If I hold this one up against:

     

    Fournette

    Patterson

    Chase Edmonds

    M Gordon

    R Penny

    M Mack

    James White

     

    As interesting as Penny would be, I'd take Hunt if we could afford him.  Thoughts?

    Reading what he wrote it sounds like he's saying bye to the current Packers team, not a retirement.

    Most sensible take.  He could also be looking to dial up the pressure with GB management, indirectly.

     

    The pitchfork and torch crowd here forgets that his team badly needed a better WR2 to "win now" and inexplicably used a 1st to draft his replacement.  That management has fk'd the team, ARod and their fan base out of several SB runs.

     

    OBD would burn to the ground if the same thing played out here during Josh prime years and he would be martyred.

  5. Interesting....

     

    One one hand, if he is guaranteed a job in broadcasting, he can enjoy a very low stress lifestyle compared to coaching in the NFL

    On the other:  you have to have a major competitive fire burning to get to where he is now....that doesn't just vanish and he's very young in NFL HC terms.

     

    LA, for some reason, is one coaching situation/fan base that I can see a champion HC walking away from and not going for the repeat.  There's just a "meh" to everything bout LA pro football.

    Good stuff,.  was wondering if Josh would make the rounds out there on radio row.   Glad he is.

     

    From the Rome interview,  It's a shame he can never look at the KC game as one of the best ever NFL playoff games.  The 13 seconds...  that loss gutted him.  

    He reached deep and found more sauce he even knew he had in that game.  So fortunate to have him.  Dynasties are launched in those moments.  Here's hoping!
