That’s the kind of thing that can stick and keep your speed and agility down which is 98% of Lamar’s game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Well, the top team discussed is Dallas, but they have only $12.6 mil. space which ranks them 19th. The top teams are the Browns, Broncos, Pats, and the Jets. I know the Pats lost Chung this year, so they might have an interest. I’m not letting my own feelings about my vitriol for the Pats and Jets Get involved, just thinking who needs safety help, and who has $. The other factor is who is willing to take in a malcontent who thinks they can control him. We don’t need him, but even more so, McD doesn’t want that kind of guy. I know I don’t. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my buddy drafted him in our keeper round (10th round, goes in reverse order from the previous season's finish - get to keep the player for the next season), and i just sent him that and went oh mannnn gonna linger all year bruhhh 3 hours ago, machine gun kelly said: Well, the top team discussed is Dallas, but they have only $12.6 mil. space which ranks them 19th.

He's a free safety though. Dallas makes sense - since clinton-dix would likely be playing SS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Getting back to the OP, this article explains it https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/inside-the-earl-thomas-ravens-divorce-and-what-e2-80-99s-next-for-both-sides/ar-BB18jSlF Apparently it wasn't the typical training camp scuffle, but a prolonged thing stemming from Thomas getting called out for a busted coverage, which was one of many assignment errors. A few things to know about the Thomas release: • He was not well-liked by his teammates. He had a pattern of being late, and in a recent practice, he made multiple assignment errors, causing defensive teammates to confront him about his preparedness. He missed at least one walk-through with no valid excuse. When the incident at Friday’s practice happened, very few if any teammates came to his defense. Teammates backed Clark, the significantly lesser name. • The money will hurt Baltimore—a $15-million cap charge this year and $10 million next year for Thomas to not play for them, unless they win a grievance to get some of the money back. • The grievance process will be fascinating. The union represents Thomas, but also Chuck Clark—and also the rest of the Ravens who are not on Thomas’ side. What if more comes out about this dispute that shows Clark to clearly be the aggrieved victim, for instance? Can the NFLPA stand up for both Thomas and his apparent sworn enemy? This will be a fascinating case to follow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have defended multiple players taking cheap shots at other players multiple times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be a fascinating case to follow. I had made mention before that the guy seemed like an ***hole and that was the reason I didn't like him. I believe it was in a thread someone created about the players they disliked the most. Thomas was on my list. This just kind of validates my point and tells me my intuition was right.

Happens all the time. They will have different NFLPA reps but it is perfectly possible for a union to represent both parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
