This is the guy that married Stephanie McMahon.  Too much drama.  Pass.

That’s Helmsley. Triple H, not double😎. I have to say Macho Fan stole the show at the draft. RIP Dick “the Destroyer” Beyer

Now that we've exercised the 5th year option on Edmunds, we could always tag Hurst next year if we need more time to re-sign him.

 

A 2nd is a bit high for what could possibly be a 1-year rental, but I dont want to throw any long term money at him until we see him perform in our offense.

 

But I also wouldnt hate it if we made the trade and immediately inked him to a 3 year deal.


the thing with rentals is we are transitioning into letting guys walk in free agency, so a late 2 for a 3rd compensatory is a good backstop for value loss

The NFL network guys seemed confused and thought it might actually be Savage.  That would have been a cool trick if Macho pulled it off.  “Macho Lazarus.......oh yeah”.

would be his 3rd team since 2018 - a first round bust given the Falcs passing O and the Ravens heavy TE-centric approach...doesnt excite me as stats are mediocre at best...would just muddy the waters I think

So does Lee Smith.  

Offset by his numerous penalties

Atlanta traded a 2nd rd pick to Baltimore last year to get him.  The 5th year option would have cost $5.4 M.  He's set to make $2 M this year.  

 

Beane likes his draft picks.  I wonder if he'd trade a player to get Hurst.  Maybe throw in the pick they got for Lee Smith 😁

i dont disagree, but tough offense to pull targets in... maybe the only WR room better than ours in the league

 

He had 88 targets last year.  That's double what Knox saw.  Double Knox's targets and he actually has the same yardage and TDs as Hurst.
