    $90 million in cap space next year and the 2020 draft is flush with offensive skill positions. They know what they're doing. Next year I expect a big push to upgrade the offensive talent. Beasley Brown and Singletary will hold down the fort if Allen continues to progress.

    I could see 1st round WR, 2nd round OL, another mid-late round WR project, and a QB project based on how Tyree Jackson does on the practice squad this year.  Probably another RB (5th round?) with Gore retired.

  2. "Beane has basically given little attention to the playmaking positions this offseason" = 3 new TEs, 3 new RBs, 2 new WRs.

     

    "We went defense heavy in the draft" = 2nd, both 3rds, and 5th round picks all used on offense, and we supposedly would have taken Hockenson if Oliver didn't fall to us.

     

    This is the worst case of "we didn't get the guys *I* wanted" confirmation bias I've ever seen.

    You realize Barkley is playing well in preseason against 2nd and 3rd stringers, right? Not regular season against starters with a game plan. He looks good, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

    He's also playing WITH 2nd and 3rd stringers and without a game plan.

     

    That's like saying "Well if you take out these lucky couple plays he had his game wasn't THAT good", without also eliminating his two worst or unlucky plays.  You can't do that and have a logical argument.  It's bending reality to fabricate a point.

    I didn't think I had to spell it out but they are F - R - E - E !!!  BTW no one's PM'd me yet. Man I can't even give these away!

    I ask because the exact thing I referenced happened with the first preseason game.  I spilled the beans on what he was asking for them and he was soundly mocked by the entire forum.

    Oh, you got me on a typo/auto correct! Well done!!  For a few minutes, I’m glad I was able to validate your life as the superior fan! Now hurry, Mom has your breakfast ready. 

    "Mitch Morris' health" would indicate not autocorrect.  The apostrophe for the possessive is properly used on a name than ends with an s and autocorrect wouldn't add that on its own.

    Yep, all beverages are prohibited. Here are the only allowed items:

    Except when they permit them, like they did last year despite being "prohibited" at the time.  I know the list.  It was extra hot last year but cooler yesterday so allowing it then was likely a shallow PR move so they don't look bad for allowing people to get heat stroke for the sake of concession profits.

    That's insane if true. 

     

    Another reason to Hammer's it up beforehand and have no food or drink inside minus a bottle of water I bring in.

    They confiscated my bottle of water on my way in.  They also took my mesh see-through bag and made me carry the rest of my stuff by hand, which was difficult on crutches.

  8. Lotta people both here and commenting on the article itself missing the point that they clearly specify this is not the league's doing.  Third party administrators automatically flag any contracts for players who sign a contract without a drug test done that year.

     

    Silly oversight that should be addressed in the next CBA, not worth the headline outrage from near-sighted idiots too lazy to read the article.  There will be no punishment for the "player".

    I know Rex looks like he is out of control here but you should pick a different video since the scoreboard is 34-8 and clearly he did his job that day.

    Or the team got it done in spite of him.  Maybe could have been 38-0 with a better coach.

     

    *edit*

    It's like where defenders of (for example) a controversial movie say "the boycott/internet outrage clearly accomplished nothing, because the movie still pulled in $X million opening weekend".  Well maybe it would have done 10% better without the boycott, or would have had better numbers after the opening weekend when the boycott-proof diehard fans had already seen it.

         Funny how the McBean haters have disappeared from this board?

         Two years ago people where apoplectic on here regarding “ The process”, looks like they might be onto something both business- wise and talent evaluation- wise.

         

    Apoplectic is a great word.  Belongs in a word of the day calendar.
