Jags listening to trade calls for Brian Thomas

There's something to this... it took Tremaine 4 years, until he was 19 years old, before he became assignment-sound.

 

 

And that was just this season.

"even if a move feels highly unlikely," says Russini.

 

Yeah, that. Might be one of those, "We'll listen, but unless you blow us away, forget about it," deals.

 

Can't see it happening, really. Wouldn't mind a bit if it did, but the likelihood is just miniscule.

 

Haven't kept up with Thomas, really, so I can't say anything either way about the folks here saying he hasn't been very good this year. Interesting, and it makes you wonder why.

 

But again, can't see this happening.

By far the best player on that list is Diggs, whom we traded a pick for.  Everyone else is average at best. 

 

 

Nonsense. Ridiculous.

 

Groot is living up to his pick. Not exceeding it, but he's living up to it. Oliver keeps improving, he also is playing really really well. This DL is a different entity when he's in there.

 

Kincaid shows signs of becoming a top five TE, and soon. Not there yet, but he's very close.

 

Certainly Elam is a failure, even if he seems to be significantly better in the different system they're using in Dallas. In ours, though, he simply wasn't good enough.

 

Edmunds played really well. It's not a mistake that he got what is now, two years later, still the 3rd highest ILB contract in football according to Spotrac.

 

People hear someone is a 1st rounder and say, "How come he's not playing like this guy, who was top ten, and this guy who was top five and this guy who was #12?" It's a lot harder to get players with genuinely huge impact late in the first, it just is. It happens, but at lower rates.

You ppl are dreaming if you think Brandon Beane, arguably the worst evaluator of WR in the NFL, is going to do this.

 

Steel yourselves for disappointment.

It’s almost like he flat-out doesn’t like playing with Lawrence 

Lawrence gets his receivers killed.

Every time I see this guy, the same questions come to mind:

 

1) When is he gonna cut that damned hair?

2) Is he too much of a narcissist to cut his hair?

3) Will he ever reach the point where self-loathing overpowers narcissism, causing him to cut his hair?

 

Every time.

Given the complexity of the Bill's offensive scheme is hard to imagine him being ready to play for the Bills before next season.    

Complexity LMAO.  Brady can’t get 1 yard in short and 1.  Go watch the 49ers and Lions if you want to see some complexity.  Nothing complex about bubble screen and no passes longer than 10 yards.  Brady complex 😂 🤣 😂 🤣

I don’t think it’s ridiculous at all. Oliver is a huge letdown for a top 10 pick.  You say he “keeps improving” which he does, but hes been in the league too long to still be waiting.  He is also a huge letdown for his $24-25 million cap hit.  That’s a MASSIVE contract.  Both Oliver and Groot can go for an entire month or more without making a single impact play.  Total inconsistency.  Groot at least has a low cap hit the next year or two.  But to my eye AJE generates more pressure on 1/4 the snaps.  And don’t get me started on how good he is against the run, because it certainly doesn’t show, or help the team.  
 

Guys like them not producing are literally why we have struggled to win the tough games. 
 

if Oliver were Jalen Carter or Chris Jones we’d have won a SB by now.  
 

Kinkaid is a pretty good pass catching TE but he’s hardly a complete TE and he still isn’t impactful enough on a consistent basis.  Is he really any better than Knox? He is used differently, he’s basically a big WR. He can’t hold a candle to old A** Kelce 

 

and for the record, I think Oliver could be a cut candidate this offseason, his contract is way too high.
