The other report is $23.2M........which would be $5.8M........but either way it's too much.
Just get rid of the kickers and punters and frickin' "long snappers"..........goofy specialist positions.........add more actual scrimmage players and make all 53 active and with that depth you can easily go to 18 regular season games.
There are literally 6-7 grunters and punters now on every team whose primary purpose is to play teams........which are dangerous and don't sell jerseys.
Start possession at the 25 after a score or at start of halves.................instead of punting just flip the field 30 yards if you don't want to go for it..........no more field goals or extra points...........only ones that will miss the kicking aspect are the book makers.
No thank you, kicking/punting adds complexity and more strategy to the game. I'm not interested in watching teams go 4 and out on their own 25 and watch the other team slap 100 points on the other team because they get to start on their 25 every other possession.

Everybody else is getting bigger contracts, why should we be surprised to see a kicker get more money? Especially when he can hit a 60 yd kick.

They are good. Especially as a group. But they are not stars
I strongly disagree about Poyer and Hyde. They are difference/game changers. They may not be top 5 safeties but they are certainly game changers. With a better pass rush I expect them to get closer to the 10 combined interceptions they had in 2017.
Also, Milano has to be counted as a game changer. After his injury, the defense fell apart. The defense was a different animal with him out there and in my book, that’s the definition of a game changer.
Tremaine hasn’t earned the game changer title yet. I believe he will but you’re giving it to him and not any of these three? Also giving it to Dawkins over these three? You’ve lost me. A game changer title is earned not given to somebody because they have potential.
How do you define a game changer?

It’s just that I don’t think the preseason gives that much of a taste. They’ll do it in practice, but not many of us will see it.
It doesn’t matter if the fans see it, the coaching staff needs to see it. I trust them to make the right decisions

Absolutely true. However, don’t you like to play with new toys first and then eventually get bored and pass them o?
That’s what training camp and preseason is for. Show up in shape and look sharp and they won’t be moved but always look to acquire assets instead of just cutting players.

Jeepers freaking creepers, in August this team is going to end up cutting guys I like quite a bit.
Or trading them for future draft picks...

Id much rather have an OT than a DT. DT is not an important position in the NFL as it once was.
Protecting Josh Allen is 100x more important and its worth investing in.
Completely disagree. The position keeps evolving as do all of them. Pass rush up the middle is just as important as it is from the edge. Pass rushing 3techs can still destroy a game plan. Ask the Rams how they feel about the DT position. A penetrating DT can be more distruptive than an edge player, especially a guy with an explosive player like Oliver.

Well they are picking at 3, so they are by default going to get a highly skilled player. For some reason, an pass rush specialist scares me more than a DT. Edge rushers is a more highly rated position.
Except Aaron Donald was the most disruptive defensive lineman last season. It’s not about position but impact. Position really doesn’t matter at the line, what the player brings to the table does.

The more I examine the roster and our recent additions, I agree that we still need to draft another O-Lineman high.
We are set at center with Mitch Morse, and we need to have confidence that Dion Dawkins returns to form after a sophomore slump. I think that Ty Nsekhe will be a significant upgrade over Jordan Mills, but he's already 34 and can't be counted on as a long-term answer. We added some nice competition at the guard position, but neither Spencer Long or Jon Feliciano are guaranteed upgrades. And we have no idea whether Wyatt Teller will develop.
I'm comfortable enough in our additions at Wide Receiver to let things play out, and we don't need to draft anyone else high.
Our biggest remaining needs (in order):
1. Tight End
2. Offensive Line
3. Defensive Tackle/3-Tech
4. Defensive End
So what if Nsekhe is 34, can't he start one year and we find a new starter next year? The guy doesn't have a lot of wear and tear on his body, he is a monstrously sized tackle that can hold it down for this year. We have other needs too, no need to reach. Who is playing the 3 tech on the line? That's a big question mark. We need a more dominant pass rushing presence and Oliver could be that option. Devin White would be hard to pass up pairing with Milano and Edmunds. Just take the best player.

It didn't affect Hurst whatsoever, so he's still on my board.
Just because it turned out okay for one person doesn’t mean it will for another. Each case is different and must be treated as such.

They still want to fill the roster with draft picks, more quality chances at that are better.

Much better moving forward/against the run than in coverage. It was the book on him coming out of college and I don't think it's changed.
He's still a top five linebacker.

That not fraudulent. It just means the deal isn’t contingent upon securing financing. It means the buyer loses his deposit if the financing falls through. Most buyers who make offers like this are pretty sure they can get the money together.
How many Presidents can you name who held the office before? I can name only one.
The President is still a very important figure in his demeanor. If you have a guy that pushes hate and lies, what do you think the American people are going to do? Too many uneducated people in this country that are played like puppets.

I can comprehend this just fine, thank you very much. The fact remains that they paid a limited LB $5 mil per year more than the best all around LB in the game. Just because the cap goes up doesn't make it smart.
I consider him a top 5 MLB and he went to a perfect fit. How is he limited in your eyes?

I’ve been opposed to politics for a long time. I generally try to avoid those conversations cause people are so passionate but for all the wrong reasons.
Sadly unless there is some sort of serious revolt and restructure nothing will ever change. It’s a business just like anything else and in the end, money always wins.
Bernie Sanders, no super pacs, been in and around politics decades. The candidate was there but America is just blind in their loyalty to their party. He stands up for every group in this country, maybe we will wake up and see what needs to be done and stop being so greedy. Only way we have a chance to unify. That being said, there are a lot of unintelligent people in this country due to our school system. College is grossly expensive and has dug a massive financial hole for so many. Greed wins again.

I mean, the Bengals just gave a giant contract to a horrible tackle... Maybe we can call and offer to give them a cold if they give us Green.
3 year 21 million dollar deal for a tackle is nothing. Salary cap went up, contracts will all go up. Look at what Trent Brown got. Daryl Williams is about to get an astronomical contract too but that's what happens when the cap goes up.

The problem is people are choosing one side or the other like it's a football team. Loyalty no matter how terrible the candidate is. There are so few level-headed people that can look at our situation and understand what we need to get out of this divided angry state we are in as a country. Vote for the best candidate, plain and simple. No super pacs, no figurehead President garbage. And greed and money have created a society with people not understanding our real problems for the human race.

What does it matter? He’s a public speaker. That’s the position. It’s not a serious position anymore. We will see more celebs like the rock or another Hollywood star take the spot in the future. The country is ran by corporations. Who speaks for them is irrelevant. They run this place. Hate trump or Obama or Hillary or whoever, they’re just the face to a group of corporations who are here to make more money. The president position is a joke, has been for a really long long time
That's the entire problem and it absolutely matters. Politics need to change and stop being run by large corporations that are smashing small businesses and our climate into the ground.

Politics need to change, no large corporations swaying votes and no inexperience bs presidents who are profiteering their own businesses while in office lol.

Silly money. He's good but he's getting considerably more than Kuechly. Let them spend it all on the defense.
Keuchly was signed when the salary cap was much lower. With the cap hike, there will be larger contracts moving forward. How come fans can't comprehend this? Keuchly would be signed for way more than this right now if he was a free agent.

What does it matter? Such a giant waste of time and money. Doesn’t matter what side you’re on as far as the current president, like him or hate him it makes zero sense to investigate a failed bid.
Not when he lied about his net worth and is President now. Still don't know how that happened. Can't get most jobs without experience, I guess President doesn't apply.

Kwon Alexander.
When will the 49ers learn? They love forking over massive UNEARNED contracts to "potential" as if those players are already Elite. They did it with Kap, Jimmy G, McKinnon, and now Kwon.
Somehow, the answer to the trivia question "Who is the highest paid ILB in NFL History" is at the moment Kwon Alexander. How is this possible?
- He is an undersized LB whose best asset is speed.
- Now he is coming off a torn ACL so who knows how much that impacts his speed.
- He has missed at least 4 games in 3 of his first 4 seasons.
- He has one season over 100 tackles.
-
Since 2011, only 9 players in the NFL have over 50 missed tackles. Kwon has been in the NFL since 2015 and already has 78.
- NOTE: He has missed a total of 16 games and parts of others. So he amassed those 78 missed tackles in just under 3 seasons too.
YET, this guy is somehow the highest paid ILB in NFL History? While everyone was freaking out while guys like this (not him specifically) were getting grossly over paid for what they have done on the field, I am thrilled we don't have a FO making frivolous moves like this. This move could work out for the 49ers, time will tell. But man its crazy to see how much some of these guys are getting paid for doing so little.
I think FA is off to a very good start for the Bills, now if we can land another quality OL like Williams, Saffold, Taylor, etc we will have had a pretty good FA overall.
Except in 3 years this won't be considered an overpay. The salary cap goes up and so does player salaries. It's not extra money for teams, it's more money for players. There will be a lot of top paying contracts this year because of the large cap hike and if it happens again, we will see these contracts be buried. Why is this so hard to understand for some fans?

I like Morse a lot. To me the Gore and Johnson signings weren’t necessary. The TE I know very little about. Certainly not enough to be upset about it. The C I like a ton. Saved the day. The RB and CB I personally wouldn’t have bothered and I don’t think they will help. The TE is an “wait and see” All and All, not bad.
We were very thin at the CB position and experience there is important. Why is everyone getting so upset over Gore? A future hall of fame player that brings more than just his talent to the table. He rushed for 722 yards with a 4.6 yds/carry average last year. It doesn't bar us from drafting a running back and was only 2 million. A rookie can learn from two future hall of famers. Running back by committee has been used by New England for several years. I think people just like to complain. They made 4 solid moves on day one and fans were complaining the whole day.

Kroft is being brought in to block first and has upside as a receiver. We had zero blocking tight ends on the roster. They may draft their receiving tight end for Allen, deep draft in that area.

A lot of talent there. Hoping they use their extra picks to get 2 seconds or just more day 2 picks. It’s the offensive sweet spot in this class.
