Allen should start with #1's
thenorthremembers replied to Niagara Dude's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree. But I am a little worried Peterman is fools.gold in the preseason. He looks great because he makes quick throws. Against vanilla defenses with wider windows that works well for him. My worry is when defenses tighten up his arm strength issue will show itself again. -
That play right there may have cost him what slim chance he had at the practice squad. Reminded me a lot of Sammy Watkins giving up on routes. Bad news for Foster is he isn't Sammy Watkins. For a guy who caught less than 10 balls a year in college you think he'd be playing like a mad dog for the chance to be in an NFL game

The Reilly drop on the sideline was bad, and two of the three long balls are tds if someone like Coleman is running under it. He looked fine tonight. His arm strength really is abnormal. Not many people can make the throw he made to McCloud. If they move him along slow he has a chance. But he isn't ready just yet

The guy on the physically unable to perform list is durable? -
Interesting Astro Tweet re: Beane
thenorthremembers replied to Johnny Hammersticks's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I completely agree with you. However, if there is nothing to it, why make the tweet at all? And then to top it off, follow up on the tweet? If you're stating the obvious, preface it by saying "this is only my opinion but" or "I have no inside information but" Stuff like this is the reason you have Jerry Sullivan on Buffalo Rumblings blasting non-union writers. I fully support the guy's right to do something he loves, but if he truly had no real information (acknowledging the tweet was cryptic and not specific to Mack) he should have stayed off of twitter, or at the very least been more responsible about it. Because as it stands now this looks like an attempt to gain twitter followers to push his writing career. -

Still cant believe we traded Takeo Spikes for a guy that never played for us. -
I feel for the guy in terms of the loss he has suffered in his life, grief is a heavy thing. However, it's just one thing in a long list of terrible things people deal with in life. That said, Dareus is 28 years old, he will have his whole life to grow up and make amends, seek forgiveness etc. But the time to play ball is slowly dwindling.

The dead cap is only 6.8 if he is released. The dead cap for a post June 1st cut is 2.9 this year, and 2.9 next. -

That's a good point. He really didnt specify names, we all just kind of ran with it. The vague tweet stuff is something I find a little off putting, but if I had the information I may do the same thing. -

I don't want to judge a guy I don't know, but it seems like the latest tweet may be aimed at moving the speculation on to Aaron Donald as the Mack well is running dry. -

Doesnt necessarily mean their front office people were there. However, to the original point the closest training camps to Van Nuys are Oxnard (Dallas) and Irvine (Rams) both of which are an hour away. So who knows. -

Both teams could easily do the trade. The Raiders have more than enough cap space to give Mack the extension once they release Donald Penn, they can easily afford Hughes in the same scenario. I honestly have no clue why the Raiders seem intent on alienating their best player by letting him hold out. They are stupid not to pay him this second. -
It's 100% habitual. And I've seen lives of people close to me destroyed from it. Have a friend who wont leave a job he can't support his family with because he can't pass a drug test. Had another friend shot to death selling it. Freely admit both of those things would probably mitigated if it were legal. I also don't think its a direct health hazard like harder drugs. Its addicting, but I also like to have a drink of beer or wine more than once a week so I can't judge.

No he just tweeted a bunch about how Trump sucks, how big of a golf and soccer fan he is, and how domestic beers are less amazing than imports to push it down his Twitter timeline. Come to think of it Jeremy White and Schoop are slowly becoming the same person. -

My prediction is absolutely nothing is happening beyond a massive upswing in twitter followers for this guy. -

When I imagine this, Newton leans in for the hug but misses slightly. -
It's not funny, but my thinking is this was an issue prior to football. Otherwise, I think Richie's story is a pretty good lesson in being up front with your intentions, and also not biting the hand that feeds. The Bills came and got him when he was poison in the NFL. He gave a ton back, but should have been up front that he didn't want to take a pay cut. Now he is in a situation where if he ever gets another opportunity, I dont think he will, it will be for veterans minimum. Should have stuck it out with the Bills.

Remember that time when he almost traded for Andrew Luck? Feels a lot like that time. -
Browns fans react to Coleman trade
thenorthremembers replied to Rigotz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
All well and good but for the last few years he hasn't shown to be motivated. Not sure he is even marginally better than the guy who starts at 3 tech in Jacksonville's defense Malik Jackson, pretty much a toss up. Not even sure the guy starts the year on the active roster as he is still facing a possible suspension, and he was only a rotational player for them last year. I am glad we got a 6th round pick for him. -
Browns fans react to Coleman trade

The fact we got a pick for someone else to pay his 16.5 million dollar salary still boggles my mind. -
Bills trade with Browns for Corey Coleman
thenorthremembers replied to 17islongenough's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Did that tweet above say we took Pryor off their hands? When did that happen? Is this the Mandela Effect happening right before our eyes? -
Bills trade with Browns for Corey Coleman
thenorthremembers replied to 17islongenough's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He has talent, but honestly think he was over drafted to start with. Productive in college but he played in an offense with one of the most basic route trees going and he never had to block. Hopefully his limited time in Cleveland helped him learn alot because his speed is unreal. -

Going to go ahead and assume its the 4th from the Ragland trade.
