  1. I think the guy gets a bad wrap as a big guy. Blount is a big rumbler and he's been a very effective player over the last couple of seasons. Tolbert also has catching ability. If he was our feature back i'd be worried, but as a backup RB/FB I think he's probably fine. Tolbert has 2400 yards, 45 total TDs, and another 1700 yards receiving.
  2. Alternative facts... fake news.
  3. If you have to franchise/plan to extend watkins - carrying over a little cap space is pretty important.
  4. Per football outsiders he was one of the worst running backs in football. http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/rb They had a pretty bad O-line FWIW, but in his game against buffalo's terrible run defense he looked pretty terrible.
  5. They valued him at 1.7 not 2.7 million. They didn't want to pay him 2.7 million to be a backup RB. It would have been the 13th highest cap hit on the team. For a backup... at a position where the best players don't get paid a premium. In addition, it sets a higher negoitating floor if you are intending to negotiate an extension.
  6. Would've liked him for Madden. I like never throw to my left receiver, except drag routes. And on drags i prefer pure speed/acceleration. We'll see what Zay's numbers look like then!
  7. After doing wonderful trades to get rid of bad chip kelly contracts, i wouldn't imagine Roseman would be in the market of paying for a 3rd free agent WR in 2017. You have to think one of Matthews, Agholar, or Dorial Green-beckham can be a serviceable number 2 receiver to go with Jeffrey and Torrey smith.
  8. Yeah i guess so - i just look at it like Ivory is the one who's always hurt. Yeldon is so not TD Mike BTW. 5 TDS on like 400 touches and very few big plays.
  9. I think it all comes down to fit and style. Denim will look terrible if you're wearing old style painters jeans that are oversized. But a good fitting pair of jeans with a good wash looks good with pretty much anything from a T-shirt to a button-down shirt.
  10. I don't really understand the speculation. He has to basically lose his job to a UDFA.
  11. Very negligible cap savings, and he's been sure-handed in the passing game. I think he sticks with Jax at least 1 more year. Scratch that - basically no cap savings. U save 400K but then one of your 400Kish RBs whos currently not in the top 53, will be in the top 53. Negates any savings.
  12. Also 5th and 7th in rushing. 3rd and 12th in attempts....
  13. Here's some tape for everyone... I wonder what people would think if Tyrod threw 4 picks on the final 5 possessions of the 4th quarter. One on the 2 yardline on 2nd and goal. And this pick six that legit cost them the game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IzpSBGvaWU
  14. I kind of agree with the "he's done" people... but also i feel like it'd be a reverse-jinx on how things ended between him and the front office.
  15. Agreed - but it costs more to get rid of Agholor than it does to keep him. 0 Dead cap to cut DGB - so hes in the tougher spot.
  16. Which is how NE has been structuring deals to essentially cut players and avoid the comp pick loss.
  17. Somehow we managed to not get comp picks after brown and gilmore walk. I think it probably comes down to cutting so many lousy draft picks
  18. You just need to finish near the bottom. SF has Hoyer, and Cleveland has Osweiler, even the Rams or Jags wouldnt surprise me too much. Well.. there is an entire college FB season to evaluate... but there are several top guys who are supposed to be good.
  19. Sure - and he can see his kids every day... he just has to fly back to san diego... Because there's always a flight available after practice... Or he can play for LA and just drive home.
  20. How can they keep him and not push Brady out? Brady is still the best QB in the league and said he wants to play 5 more years. So you either push him out, or let Jimmy walk. Your only way to prevent it is to pay him what - 25 million dollars to be a backup?
  21. I didn't say to sign them... i said they're in play along with the 2018 QB class.
  22. I mean... yeah. If he doesn't get an extension by mid-July, he's 100% in play. Maybe not for us but its one more QB needy team that gets someone.
  23. Tyrod has to make the playoffs and drastically improve his numbers for him to earn an extension. He's gotta know that too.
  24. Well they were saying the 2018 class is amazing and deep. I'm throwing out the fact that Jimmy G should be a UFA - or they will tag and trade like they did with cassel (unlikely because they seem to target free agency more than they did in 2009 and it hamstrings your cap room).
