  1. Purdy is not that great. He's a middling QB that is another product of the Shanahan system.
  2. I mean, the market is what it is. But guys like Tua, Lawrence, and Purdy getting this kind of money is insane.
  3. What seems fair to you, and what the franchise that has sold it's collective souls to Satan receives for player punishments are two completely different things entirely.
  4. Peter Pan guy? Takers?
  5. There are a couple RB's I can remember being truly productive into their 30's. John Riggins had 1,300+ and 24 TD's at 34, then 1,200+ and 14 TD's at 35 toting the rock. Walter Payton killed it from his age 30 to 33 seasons, going for 5,889 yds and 34 TD's rushing. If Barry Sanders had played another 5 seasons (truthfully, just another 3), I have no doubt he would be the NFL's all time leading rusher. Players like Henry are a rare breed. But, all it takes is one injury at this stage and he's likely done. An ACL, an achilles, a hip labral tear, any of these could spell the end.
  6. Nice breakdown. Beane/McDermott, though we get frustrated and talk a lot of crap at times, when you stack them up against the other top end teams in the league, we look just as good. I really believe this year's draft is the one that is going to put us over the top. I really loved this draft class.
  7. Xavier Restrepo has entered the chat...
  8. Tough break. Hope he makes a full recovery.
  9. If my guy would have just taken some of that $$$, bought pizza and water bottles, then distributed them in a nearby neighborhood he could have gotten off scot-free.
  10. This takes "That's my Quarterback" to a whole new level. TO won't out here getting Romo tats.
  11. George Pickens = SB
  12. If this defense is what I think it will be, then we should at least be representing the AFC in the SB. I think Benford, Hairston, White, Strong, and Taron Johnson will be the best group of CB's in the NFL. I think Groot, Jackson, Bosa, AJE, Sanders, Oliver, Walker, Jones, and Carter will be one of the more formidable DL's in the league. (That's not even counting the PED boys). I TRULY believe that opposing QB's are going to be losing sleep before matchups against us this year. We actually have some REALLY good depth at key positions, where in years past we have not. And with JA17, you know what the offense is gonna do.
  13. Tyler Shough seazn.
  14. Terry sold shares to finance his part of this new stadium and these are the HS auditorium seats we get?
  15. Cook is a good RB. He is way better than D'Andre Swift. Trying to compare the two just doesn't make sense, to me at least. Their body types are different. Their style of play is different. Swift is like a little bowling ball at 5'9" and 215lbs. James Cook is 5'11" and, at best, 195lbs. Cook is lightening quick and has a burst that Swift does not. I would compare Swift more to someone like David Montgomery, and Swift is not even on his level. Yes they are different players, but Cook is a legitimate homerun threat at the RB position where Swift is not. I know I have my opinions about how he and his camp have handled situation entirely from the jump, and I still think his brother is a complete idiot, but our current team would be weaker without him. It would put more strain on Josh to carry the load if Cook were not here, more so than he already does, and that is not what we want or need at this stage in Josh's career. The hits do start to add up and take their toll. Cook is someone that other teams do have to gameplan for because he is that homerun threat. With the position not being addressed in the draft, and a trade not being made at the same time, I think that pretty much settles he will be here this year. And he better be ready to ball out if he wants to get that big contract he's looking for.
  16. Malaki, get ready to meet our very own JA17.
  17. Yes!!! We need more of Gabe Davis' mom's thoughts on things.
  18. I don't think it's necessarily gonna be a who, but more so a what. I think the Bills defense will not only be top 3 in sacks, but also top 3 in takeaways. Opposing QB's are going to lose sleep when they see us next on the schedule.
  19. And they'll still be the factory of sadness on the field.
  20. Hoecht and Ogunjobi can get the boy right.
  21. DC is only about a 3 hour hike from where I'm at in VA. I just might have to go check this out.
  22. I hope, after all of the offseason additions to the DL and Secondary, that we absolutely murder Burrow and the Bengals this year. We'll see. I still think they are the worst matchup until we prove otherwise on the field. I have seen us beat both KC and Baltimore, no matter how people feel about the way it happened. I haven't seen us beat the Bengals with Burrow, Chase, and Higgins.
  23. Ehhhh, I don't know about the TJ Watt comparison. Watt has more bend, and is even quicker than Jackson. For Jackson, I was thinking more along the lines of JPP.
  24. I really like our draft as a whole. And though I think Dorian Strong will end up being our diamond in the rough, I REALLY liked this pick, especially where we were able to grab him. We now have two mammoth human beings that will be lining up at bookends on the DL for years to come. At 6'6", 264lbs, with 33" arms, even when he doesn't get to the QB, he will certainly disrupt passing lanes. Fact of the matter is though, for a guy his size, he's quite twitchy and nimble out there. He also converts speed to power well, and will absolutely manhandle opposing blockers. He also plays the run well. It will be interesting to see our rotation this year. I expect Jackson to see a lot of work on early downs, and Bosa in more clear passing situations. I also think the staff wants to get to the Playoffs with a healthy as possible Bosa so they can turn him loose. This DE group could be the best we've had in a long time if everyone stays healthy, that's not even counting PED boy.
