Agreed. I would be ecstatic with Worthy

Becoming more of a possibility with each pick

Kaiir Elam part deux 😂

Well Tyron Smith hasn't played double digit games in like 10 years, so...

Jets not taking OL would've been very...Jetsy Smart move imo

Just disagreeing in the word "scary". As you note, they are likely at minimum the 3rd best team in their division (similar to last year)

Scary? Things are looking up but easy on the hyperbole, it is Chicago. Playing in the sorry NFC does help though

Phew

No massive holes other than WR. But S, IOL, and DL have mediocre depth at best. We're better off at LB and CB than some believe, but help there wouldn't hurt either.

Terry, is that you?

Obviously, right here🤷 It was a response to a previous post. Big time Sabres fan but they are inarguably one of the most pathetic franchises in American sports.

If Terry isn't willing to hire top tier guys while presiding over an NHL record playoff drought and with the supposed "sole existence" of the Sabres being to win a Stanley Cup, we've got some serious problems...

Guys like Craig Berube, Todd McClellan, and Gerard Gallant are all not currently employed and would've been outstanding choices. They wouldn't have to wait for any of them. So the question is did the Sabres even try to reach out to any of them? My suspicion is no. Unfortunately the Sabres under Terry have become like the Bills under Ralph during the drought. They go with the guys they "know". All of this said, I do like Lindy and he does have a great history as a Sabre. I just shake my head when a mere six days pass before he is announced as head coach when there is no other demand for his coaching services.

If they went through an extensive head coach search, were turned down by a few top candidates, and determined Lindy to be the best option? Yes If they went the nostalgia route and didn't even conduct interviews (which is likely what happened)? No

Pretty much. I actually think he was really good in the booth for a first year guy. Still kinda weird to announce your retirement after jumping into broadcasting.

Obviously

That was the previous lease lol. Notice how it says 10 years? The new lease is for 30. It does contain a decreasing out as time goes on, but it's not remotely possible for at least 15 or so years.

He's a bit...old (81) Also, I don't believe he has nearly enough bank. Pretty sure his net worth is something like 150 million.

I think the OP hurt himself thinking up this topic

I don't think Devonta Smith is worth that contract. AJ Brown is a true #1 option. 25 mil for a #2 (albeit a very good one) is pretty crazy imo

Maybe he's become best friends with Beane after voluntarily taking that pay cut 😂

I see he's still on the magic mushrooms

Except in 2019. He was probably my favorite player on that relatively nondescript team.

I didn't realize Jason Whitlock was still a thing. For anyone who hasn't followed his career, he makes a living off of taking contrarian points of view. He doesn't actually believe in anything he writes, he's just in it for clicks. Been like that for a long time. In this case, he's probably right.

He never was imo. I have zero confidence that he can make a big kick and his nickname was definitely not earned like Hauschka. Even Rian Lindell felt more trustworthy. Bass should be on the hot seat to begin the year.
