    We needed a depth signing. The good: It’s a 30 year old player who had a second round pedigree and logged a lot of snaps while starting 17 games last season for the Chargers. The bad: He hasn’t been good, especially last season coming off of a broken knee and MCL the prior season. The unknown: How well he bounces back in his second season back from that injury and how he does playing less snaps. So much comes down to what the contract is. 

    You forgot- The obvious: Anyone with a pulse is an upgrade from Settle.

  2. Classic fan mentality in this thread. Since Kincaid has emerged, they advocate for trading Knox..."He makes too much money!!" They act like they're paying Knox out of their own bank accounts. If Beane were to listen to them, trade Knox for a 4th rounder, and use that pick on the BPA; then the Bills end up with, let's say, a backup OT. Then in week 3, when Kindaid pulls a hamstring, Morris or some scrub rookie/street free agent ends up starting at TE. Then the same fans that b!tched about Knox's contract rant about the team not having any depth and what a poor job of roster construction Beane has done.

  3. The twitter discussion that the Cover 1 guys have been tossing around- signing Poona Ford, trading Oliver and 3rd to Denver for Jeudy, then resigning Jordan Phillips or another such vet DT- does intrigue me. But if Oliver were to be traded, who would take the "whipping boy" mantle he's inherited from Edmunds?🤔

    That’s 30 years ago now.

    And Tasker is a guy who is arguably the best cover guy in NFL history- and should be in the Hall. But you can be sure that members of this board would have bitched about him- why he was being paid so much, a waste of a roster spot- etc, etc. as they do with every ST player on the team now- it's moronic!

  5. If this board had been up and running in the early 90s, members would have been calling for Tasker/Pike's releases continuously- "Well, they're overpaid!" "What does Pike do on defense?" "We can replace Tasker with a receiver that actually plays on offense!" "Polian and Levy worry too much about special teams!"

  6. This is a colossal goat f***! I cannot believe that this team would saddle itself with this crap, on the cusp of a season where they are a Super Bowl favorite. The longer this festers, the worse it will be for the team, especially if they "close ranks" around this bonehead, a rookie PUNTER, who is already becoming a gangrenous limb. Loyalty to a rookie punter, who has questionable judgement is, in and unto itself, terrible judgement on the part of this front office and staff. What he did-or didn't do, doesn't matter. He's a millstone around this franchise's neck now. They need to cut and run.

    Small marketers always crave national attention. Recognition can alleviate thin-skinned self-consciousness. 

     

    Raiders @ Rams is a good opener.

    No. No it's not. You might as well watch a MLB game- they'll bore you to death. Carr is a dud; he's always been a dud; he always will be a dud. He has always had weapons- don't think that the addition of Adams will change the dynamic. He shares the stage with Cousins as the most uninspired, unwatchable QBs of this era. Watching any game featuring Carr is akin to watching your neighbor mow his lawn. But sure, the Raiders are a big name.
