Eric Washington

Ike Boettger is likely penciled as the LG for next season. As it stands today, assuming Morse is released, we’d have Dawkins/Boettger/Bates/draft pick/Brown. They’ve been developing Ike, Bates is the heir at C, and they’re gonna give Brown one more shot at RT. I think Beane is correct in his stance that Brown having missed camp and recovering from surgery stunted his development.

This is a special bunch. But, then again, the whole of western NY and all of its expats are some of the best people on earth. We enjoy many, almost an infinite number of, common bonds. This place has pulled me out of more than one “funk” in life and, for that, and for many other reasons, like the obvious ones, I’m grateful.

In this defense, neither safety places that “center fielder” role. Heavy run support is provided by each safety (and nickel). Tre doesn’t have the size or temperament to crash downfield as our defense calls for. His body would hold up.

Tre cannot play safety in the NFL. He wouldn’t last the season in this defensive scheme as a safety.

Who else thought his arm looked dead? That he just looked old and tired? In my opinion, if he continues to play, next season could be a disaster for his new team.

This seems a little harsh, does it not? Can you imagine the uproar that would have been if Bruce was rotated in and out of the lineup? Or Ted Washington? Our rotational philosophy does rub some of us the wrong way, and I could also see how it’d be frustrating for many of the players, too. Sometimes it’s maddening when we have a 3rd and short and the line is not the starters. I know I’d want Daquan, Ed, Groot, and Von fronting our defense in just this situation. Who wouldn’t? You, presumably?

Well, I’ve seen it all. The most wholesome part of football has been sullied. What’s next? Did Marv Levy shake babies?

There’s a reason Beane gave up on him. Complete zero.

I had to buy my shirt at Domino’s back in the day. I don’t miss those days…and I think Cody won’t miss his days of buying uniforms pretty soon, too.

Seems like a great kid. Like a really humble person and great teammate. But, BIG BUT, his hands have turned to stone. Seriously, WTF happened?

I’d expect McD to be super duper extremely heavily involved in both the game plan and defensive play calling from here on out. If we put forth great defensive game plans and play, Frazier probably gets his second chance to be a HC. My spidey senses tell me that McD wants Eric Washington to take the d-coordinator helm next season. But he can’t can LF, of course.

You, my homie, are classless.

Yeah, you’re right. I don’t know how some of these guys get cleared medically.

If you’re that player who’s gotten at least one non-rookie contract, do you seriously consider hanging it up after watching what’s gone on this season with Tua and now Damar? (A few others, too) Not many guys will do this, and I’m not claiming they should, but how can a fella not think about this when they self-evaluate after the season? Wives, parents, and, hopefully, agents need to have these conversations. We’re not at the same risk level as Bering Sea fishing, but it is not sustainable. Poyer? Dude, your body is breaking down. Micah? Walk away while you can. Mitch? Same. Saffold? Do you really need the extra $3mil? I could say something about half of our team alone. Guys may start really thinking about getting in and getting out with their health first and the wallet is just a bonus. Is this conversation too soon? Maybe.

You should be a life coach for football fans. This is 1000% correct and needs to be understood by anyone who watches football.

He’s not a diva, but he’s an “ALPHA” which has me concerned. If he were to start acting like that serial blowtorcher in Miami, I’d have to call him out. Everyone involved can prevent that from happening by giving him the damn ball whenever he wants it. Diggie, don’t get your finger dirty.

This one hurts and reminds me (again) how fragile life is and that not one day should ever be taken for granted. Franco was, by all accounts, a tremendous guy. Tell those you love that you love them.

Gonna need two guards a d a RT. Bates will slide into center.

Do you think Deshaun Watson is looking forward to playing Christian Wilkins?

Oh thank God. Mods can close the thread if you want. I’m not there and just wanted to know what the odds are.

iIf they do, what’s the latest they could announce it?

The Cards definitely knew what they were getting with him. They’re the suckers. Everyone had Cody graded higher than where we picked him. (Everybody means lots of organizations)
