Slippery Rubber Mats

Im completely happy with AJ being gritty here.

He wasn't exactly languishing though. Cleveland was hi first team and he had a nasty injury in his contract year, and didn't get picked up. Still, as a good value free agent find I could see the comparison.

While yeah Fitz will be Fitz, I think he's in the right division and right team this year to make the playoffs. Then he'll throw a few back-breaking picks in the wildcard round and move on to his 28th team next year.

Correct me if I am wrong, but Hollister has 2 practices in May/June that reporters could see. How can he "look good" enough where anyone could make any kind of judgement about how he will fare this year? Offseason be crazy

It was I really impressive article I'll grant you. But maybe we should wait for another article later in June before we are ok with making this guy a starter? I'd even like to see a July article. Maybe a few blurbs in there somewhere too.

perhaps not but he's been around

It's solid veteran list. Same sorts of dudes that get practices off during the season. Also dudes near the end of the line with no desire to get hurt at voluntary practices.

Agreed, particularly on the D line. Last 3 drafts we've drafted the cornerstones of the hopeful future at that position. They def needs reps though, and will be deep in a heavy rotation once the games start.

The way I look at this is: what couldn't they do at the old number (3+mil)? They need to pay Rousseuueoeu ~2. That would leave them with a million plus, so basically no flexibility at all after that. Now they'll have around 9 mil to work with. I could see a vet CB around 5-6mil plus rooks. Leaving them 3+ to do business with after that. Ertz seems like he could fit in instead of the CB with some cash left on the table to pay Greg and have about the same amount left over as before.

Because "aging" doesn't matter if you only have him for one year, and obviously people are banking on the production drop being from offensive dysfunction in Philly. Whether or not you agree is a different matter.

That was Ziggy Ertz, hot dog vendor. No relation to the football player, hell of a dog though.

Machine Gun, I completely agree. It’s absurd in the most Billsy way.

Slipping on floor mats is one of my favorite inside jokes from the dark years. Just so ridiculously Billsy. Poor Kolb. I’ve read he’s got it bad. Wish him the best even though the mats thing is funny. The Buffalo Bills, eternally in a search for a franchise QB, signs a shiny new free agent QB and as he’s running out to greet the fans and media he raised his arm to wave only to slip on some slippery rubber mat left out in the middle of the field. Leg broken career over game over bills.

We will dominate this year if we can get a running game.

I'm glad we got in early. Several teams have up and coming elite long snappers and they will want to reset the market too. Beane is working these fools.

How do you make the HoF as a long snapper?

Search for Dion Dawkins at the Grand Buffet on youtube. He was engorging himself and after 14 plates he was walking out and some dude caught him on vide saying "I'm going for four hundo". He'll be ok though.

Maybe he worked hard over the break to do what they asked, and coach feels like he deserves some public praise for it. Without looking too deep, it seems like that to me.

Shiiiiiitttttt, I'd take that deal in a heartbeat. EDIT: I did not intend this to be a pun, sorry about that LOL

Yep if you squint real hard and forget most of what you know about football you could imagine a scenario where Jeff takes us to like 6-10. But instead he just crapped his pants.

I bet he hasn't even spoken with Wade and Duke Williams today. Not even a quick text message to say good morning.

I appreciate your enthusiasm but no, I completely disagree. We've seen next to nothing from wade, and this is a championship caliber team. If I cut Jones, I'm carrying a different professional football player at OL or probably DL. All that being said, Wade is a cool story and *****, I hope he destroys preseason and we have to keep him.

And the guy you are championing has never touched a football in a live game that counted. And in the games that didn't count, you saw him for a total of about 13 seconds.

Doesn't wade have like 3 preseason carries total? Regardless how those 3 carries went, that's all you've seen of him. And based on 3 carries you are confident he will replace Jones's special team value? Peak offseason right here.

4 is plenty. If we got like 1 or something, sure, something to complain about. 4 vs 5? Just looking for something to complain about IMO.
