Lest people constantly call me negative. I like this signing.

That's the point though. You're not relying on him. You've got Tre and Norman and Wallace and Neal and Taron Johnson.
I guess what I'm getting at is how do you even justify giving him over a roster spot unless he is head and shoulders better than the next best guy.

I know he's cheap but how can you rely on a guy who is never available?

I don't know, they already have 3 edge guys 30 (Murphy, Hughes, Addison) and over.
You would think it would have to be for someone younger and it really makes you wonder if Clowney is the guy for a one year prove it deal.
You know more about this stuff than I do, so you may be right about Griffin.
Addison has 3 years of term, Hughes has 2 and Murphy has one. You would think they wouldn't want to have Clowney and Hughes up in the same year so a 1 year or a 3 year make more sense that way and a 4 year might be perfect so you had one potentially come off the books each year and Clowney would be the youngest of them all

Just a QB, RB, and a pass rusher away? Thank God. I thought it might be something serious.

Something's cooking when the Bills start restructuring.
Depends on what they did. Could be accelerating hit into this year to make more next.

Only counts completed deals I'm sure not any of the deals with complicated pending language that aren't technically completed

Man, I can remember thinking that Treadwell with his size, strength and multi-year high volume collegiate production would be really something in the NFL. In his case, his poor athletic testing results (40 and vert) were a red flag that should have been heeded.
Kinda like Tee Higgins, no?

Tom Brady was seriously the exception wouldn’t you agree
Yes, but they have had the option to extend Brady on a multi-year for the last couple years and chose not to. They have had some decent QBs through there recently and I don't think BB will go into a season without a functioning QB at his age. There is a distinct possibility that they just go back to physical football and defense like they did before Brady was Brady. Knowing the the league has to prepare for teams like KC by getting smaller and quicker, a team that commits to pounding the football right now could have some success.
Brady was part of the equation there, admittedly a big one, but BB is the thing that has made it work. In the 20 years Brady was their QB that team evolved at least 3 different times to match what the team had and/or to do what BB thought would work to counter what the league was doing.

I can’t believe that.... I’d love this.
You know, I remember a time being excited that Drew Bledsoe was injured and being replaced by a scrubby 6th round pick. Perhaps we should consider the possibility that Jarrett Stidham isn't garbage and/or that they are planning on taking a QB in round 1 and doing whatever it takes to make that happen.

The participation trophies basically facilitate that. When we hand them out we say something about the player and their improvements.
I wouldn't pay for participation trophies, either.
School gym? They wouldn't pay for the banner?
They would. I challenge the kids to make me pay for it. They've made me buy 5 in 4 years and we've come in second 4 more times.

Participation trophies aren't the problem. It's not keeping the score that's the problem. We still tell our kids "your team won/lost" at the end of the game, if they can't tell already. Some of the kids still keep score during the game themselves.
The problem are the insane parents who berate coaches, kids and officials. Getting referees is increasingly difficult in all sports as people stop doing it because it's not worth the hassle. Getting coaches is almost as difficult. I am anti participation trophy in general because I think they are wasteful but the reason the participation trophies exist is not because the kids asked for them, it's because there is a loud segment of parents that demand them.
If you win something that's fine, celebrate that. If you didn't win find another way to celebrate your improvement. If you were there just for fun then none for this conversation matters to you because you had fun. I've coached quite a bit as an adult, some paid gigs some volunteer, and there were plenty of times I knew our team wasn't going to win much and resetting those expectations for everyone early on wasn't fun but it made everyone happier in the end. We probably aren't going to do X but you as an individual can do Y if you work hard. Achieve your goal, take that win for yourself, and try to enjoy playing because you want to play.
When I got my current job I killed the participation trophies. If a coach wants to buy them or the parents want to buy them that is their business but it doesn't come out of my budget. My budget pays to help you improve as a student athlete. If our team wins a championship I buy the banner for our gym out of my own pocket.

Im sorry but I love to see guys like him crash and burn. Remember after being drafted he said he was PISSED he was drafted so low and that 9 teams made a mistake? No, only 2 teams made a mistake and the Cardinals were lucky to recover quickly.
I remember Thurman Thomas saying basically the same thing.

Take as many victory laps as you want. I'm not sure Allen is any better than Mitch Trubisky. I didn't like Rosen either FWIW.

They decided they weren’t into drafting Tee Higgins, so they have this extra Higgins jersey laying around...
They could give it to the butler...

If Gurley's knee checks out, get it done. Problem is I suspect his knee is much worse than Rams are letting on. A healthy Gurley, and SIngletary, with Diggs, Smoky, Beasley, and Rambo sounds like best offense since Kgun
If he were healthy they wouldn't be moving him. It's a question of how broken is he?

Upgrading backup QB really needs to be a consideration. I dont know if Winston is the right fit but we need a guy who can come in off the bench and win a game if needed and then potentially start a couple weeks. I don't think Barkley is that guy. As much as he stinks, Blake Bortles might be an option, he and Allen are similar and you wouldn't have to change the offense much.

So similiar amount of sacks with Bruce having 2.3+ times the amount of tackles.
That sounds about right 2 to 3 times as good
Twice as many forced fumbles and 12 fewer games played because Bruce missed almost all of 1991.
It is eye opening. Bruce's overall impact on the game compared to Mario Williams isn't even close.

I’d consider one of their 3rd’s to take him. You’re essentially buying a 3rd round pick with your cap space and gurley might be useful for a year or 2.
I'd take him if they gave us solid draft pick compensation. Otherwise it's clear they are going to release him. On a pitch count he can still be a useful player but you don't pay platoon backs his salary

That's cool. I'm going to go ahead and keep paying it every month even if it's paused and just pay down the balance of the loan during that time.
It's also a very helpful thing for people who won't be in that sort of position and it takes a lot of pressure off people.

They should run this show at immigration under a big sign that says "You sure you wanna come here?"
