Apples to oranges. The Top paid center in the nfl makes $11.25 mil per year. The top paid left tackle makes $16.5 mil per year. You have to go down to the 16th highest paid left tackle to be at $11.25 mil per year. I don't see a 26 year old Dion taking $12 mil per year. Also, Bakhtiari signed 4 yer ago. Pretty sure the cap has gone up a few times since. If I'm Dion, I want $15 mil per year. If not, I'll be franchised at around $15 mil or I'm a FA free to shop around. Someone will pay at $15 mil for a 26 yr old LT who started 4 yrs straight. Just my take.

Try this for entertainment.

A tear or two when I got to the Fruit Loops part. Maybe SmokinES3 should read this.

I'm not advocating to pick up Winston, but all indications are he is a good locker room guy and knows the qb position well. I do have a question though. Why is competition good at other positions, but not at QB? Allen is in yr 3, not a rookie. Competition should do him good. The question isn't about Winston, per say. Just wondering why you would emphasize Winston would come in to compete and make it sound like a bad thing.

and Dawkins should be a guard, according to some here. ?

I remember that game. Pretty sure we were about to run in the winning TD and we fumbled. Their LB ran it back for a td. Am I right? Edit: Nope, wrong game. This was fun to watch though.

I wrote in a previous thread I think we start the season in October. Thurs. night Football on Oct. 1 will open the season. No games in London or Mexico. 17 weeks will take us to Jan. 24th. 3 weeks of playoff and no pro bowl or media week in between. SB on Feb 21st. Bills vs. Niners

Not worried about Devin's confidence. May the best man win.

I have. It's not what you make it out to be. Not even close. Again, this is a JP thread. Not a Star bashing thread. You've had plenty of chances for that.

Before this thread get's locked, I wanted to call you an idiot.

Star didn’t beat his man men enough to get enough tackle opportunities to miss. Even though this is a Jordan Phillips thread, I thought I'd fix that for you.

On that note, I was going to post the following bold prediction: RB Cam Akers RD 2 WR Antonio Gandy-Golden RD3 RB AJ Dillon RD4

Even though I don't think he'll be there, I voted Mims. If he's not available, Cam Akers over Taylor.

Offensively, Duke dropped a td, then drops a pass with a minute left in regulation that would have shifted field position. John Brown can't keep his feet inbounds for an incomplete pass. Josh fumbles and turns the ball over at the beginning of the 4th, leading to a Texans score. We have a really good drive to kick a fg and go to overtime, even with Duke dropping the pass mentioned earlier. Duke dropping that pass means we're now working for a fg instead of going for a game winning td. 2 guys miss a block on a qb sweep in overtime that would have been a td or at least have us in fg range. We didn't lose because of game planning or play calling. The players left too many plays on the field to blame the staff.

We held a team that averaged 24 points per game to 22 points, in overtime. We had 2 players with Watson in their grasp for a sack and he gets out of it. Just a special play by a special player. It was a team loss. There were enough plays left on the field by the offense and defense to win it. Players execute better on a few plays and we win. Coaching was fine.

I think if these 2 players switched teams last year, the numbers wouldn't follow the player. KJ's numbers in Washington's defense last year would have been just as ugly as Norman's were. I believe Norman's numbers would have been pretty good if he played here last year. I'm expecting a good, bounce back season for Norman. Wait a minute, this is a EJ Gaines thread. Sorry.

Maybe you misunderstood me, not sure. My point was that we only have 1 rb on our current roster who played any significant snaps(Devin). When Devin was out, Gore took over. He's not here anymore. So, it is a glaring need. Not sure what the mulligan comment means, we played the games. Sure, I remember Davis in the playoffs. Another reason why having a good stable of rbs is a glaring need. We currently don't have that. I'm not counting on Yeldon or Wade to take over if Devin gets hurt. Don't see how anyone here would.

When I saw Akers to KC at 63, I yelled "NO!". If he's there at 54, I have been on the grab him side. Seeing him potentially go to KC makes me want him even more. Imagine him in KC with everything else they have?

We have 1 rb who played any significant downs last year. The fact that the rb position is "easy" to fill does not mean it's not a glaring position of need. 1 guys, 1. Definitely a glaring need.

As an FSU fan, you are way too kind. That offensive line has been horrible the last 3-4 years. They are comparable to the horrible Bills line in 2018. In other words, they suck. If you put Akers behind a competent line, watch out!

How about pretty wife, ugly girlfriend?

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I LOVE YOU , MAN!!!!

Another "chief" battle?

Is that a Tee Higgins joke?

I think the season will start in October and end in Jan. 17 weeks would be the end of Jan. No games in London or Mexico. No media week between the end of the playoffs and the Super Bowl.
