What would we do with our first round picks from the bears? Lb and WR?

He was the last pick of the 4th round. As a QB he's not even supposed to still be in the league. It would be more of a shock if he was decent.

This roster is significantly worse than last season. Our line was destroyed, shady is another year older, Preston Brown is going to be a pretty big loss until the kid learns the ropes, Brady isn't suspended this year, Miami and the Jets improved, probable reduction in turnover differential, no upgrades to wr, Kyle hurt, outside of Marcus Murphy no other player flashed even a little something in preseason, and we have one of the hardest schedules in the league. Those are a few of the reasons I have major reservations about this season. If we win 9 games this year, it means several key pieces stepped up and we're very close to being a very good team. I'm skeptical that happens.

Jonathan Cooper, Navorro Bowman, Kevin Minter, Breshad Perriman Michael Johnson is not that.

Tremaine Edmunds is 20 years old

This roster looks awful, top to bottom. We've got a ton of players on our 53 that I expect would have been on cut lists if this were another team. The part I'm having a tough time with is that most of the players here aren't very young. Most of them have already peaked, or appear unlikely to break out. Usually I talk myself into scenarios like, oh well if this guy can take a little step up and we get a breakout year from one of x.y,z we'll be in good shape. The only guys I see as potential breakout candidates on this roster would be Peterman, Zay Jones, Murphy, and Edmunds, based pretty much on them having extremely limited experience. That's not a great situation to be in. Before pre-season I may have said Milano and Logan Thomas, but not feeling particularly high on either at the moment.

While fielding an historically bad offense. Your response is completely irrelevant to that that point.

Jonathan Cooper

Are we on the hook for his cap?

SIgn him and cut ivory

I find it impossible to believe that Foster is a better player than Coleman at this point. He had to have been a cancer.

Fair.

I agree with that. Teams would rather gamble on a RB in the top 5 than trade the pick for Adrian Peterson on his prime. It's overwhelmingly rare to get more back for a player that actually proved he was a stud. I've never understood it, because really, what are these teams hoping to land?

Been saying this for years. He knew who belonged in this league and drafted NFL talent. If one of those happened to be a QB, he'd still be here.

I'm pretty sure that's exactly how he fleeced the Bills out of 12 million. Taking a page right out of the Matt Flynn playbook.

If I had a nickle for every great game a player had in the 4th quarter of the 4th preseason game...You sure that's what you want to hang your hat on? Right, because football coaches are known to tell the truth to stupid questions

If you would have asked me before pre-season I would have said 9 or 10. Given that none of our WRs have stepped up, our line looks all-time bad, and Tremaine appears like the game is a bit too much for him right now, I think realistically we're in 3-4 territory unless Murphy transforms the D, or this o-line learns how to play NFL football. I think the NFL is going to be very strong this year as a whole, and we're one of very few teams that doesn't have something they can hang their hat on. I think we get flashes of great play at various points, but ultimately come up short a lot due to inconsistency and the oline.

It wasn't a bargain when Haynesworth got a similar deal nearly a decade ago. This deal won't look good 20 years from now even if he maintains current production. It's just an insane amount of the cap to give up for 1 player and all but ensures all their depth will have to be rookie or vet minimum deals.

Unless they do it in the next two years, this move ensures the rams are completely screwed for the next 6 years. kiss your Super Bowl hopes goodbye, LA.

We've kept numerous rookies on IR that seemed to stub their toe getting off a plane. Can't recall any of them ever working out long term, but wouldn't be shocked to see him there.

It's a fantastic town as long as you can learn to handle the heat.

Spoken like a true home schooled kid.

Definitely. I made less money coming back to Buffalo after a promotion and 4 years experience than I did as a fresh grad of 3 weeks in Seattle. I effectively capped the salary range for my profession in Buffalo at age 25. I immediately doubled my salary upon moving to Austin.

Buffalo's a great town to be from, but a hard place to live if you ever spent time anywhere else. The job market sucks for anything remotely 21rst century. I've moved away 3 times, but I have a feeling I'll always find my way back. Haven't been back to see anyone in 4 years, do it's probably time to stop in. Right now I just can't afford to live there and make a living, but maybe 50 years from now when my student debt is paid off I can die at Nick's diner eating a ham skillet breakfast.
