Re: Caleb Williams News and Rumor thread
The most infuriating thing about deions shortlist is Washington is on it. Seriously WTF that is a garbage ass franchise. You're right.

Re: Ryan Poles Presser
Obviously I was a “Fields believer” but credit to Poles, the way he has “De-Beared” this teams recruitment strategy has been very impressive. Salary cap - sorted Draft capital - sorted QB clock - reset Age of team - drastically reduced. Those had to be his main aims and he’s done a great job turnin...

Re: IOL thoughts
He did but of course the situation was different. It was midseason and Sweat would have hit free agency at the end of the year. He'd also been working on an extension for Johnson for some time at that point and even thought he was closing in on a deal but it didn't materialise. He knew he wanted to...

Re: IOL thoughts
But the bigger question is can TJ be extended? My belief is Poles has handled the extension of two of his best homegrown players so far so I have no reason to believe he can't get a deal done with Jenkins that suits both parties. But until it's done all we know is he's in the final year of his curr...

Re: IOL thoughts
Guards still grow on trees - Alot of our problems over the years was the lack of Tackle play - Even Chris Williams had a half way decent run at Guard. And are new injuries better? Like that all of his body can be an issue? I'm not sold there. There is Guards next year on FA too - pretty much every ...

Re: IOL thoughts
Jenkins missed time last season but not due to recurrences of previous injuries. I do find it mildly amusing that people always emphasise the need to build the OL and how the Bears have consistently failed do so and then they unearth a guy who's head and shoulders above anyone they've had for years...

Re: IOL thoughts
With regards to Jenkins' availability, it's worth noting in the past two seasons he's played in 25 games the exact same number as Jaylon Johnson who's just signed a lucrative 4 year extension. Correct. The availability issue is a hangover narrative from his rookie year concerns that are well behind...

Re: Plan that gets MHJ to #9
Harbaugh is crazy. I'm half surprised they didn't trade Herbert - the fit with him and Roman seems odd to me. Harbaugh is like Parcells/Darth Vader in that he wants "his guys", and it's his personnel moves that will ultimately do him in IMO. He likes his "try hard guys" who will...

Really? That seems off. They just cut/traded their top two WR - and the draft is shaping up where they might get the Top WR (and the value if on WR there) I am NOT ruling out OT mind you - but WR seems at least as likely Couple thoughts 1.

Re: Plan that gets MHJ to #9

Re: 2024 NFL Free Agency chatter, there will be punch and pie
One of the best corners in the game traded for a very small return. We keep seeing this happen, its an interesting recent trend. Contacts (timing of them + projected future cost) is driving this, these players are all far better than the returns they got in trade: Allen, Fields, Snead, etc One of t...

Re: What value would Braxton J ones have?
I don't either. Although I wouldn't rule it out if Poles trades down. Poles has also expressed his satisfaction with Jones development from a 5th round pick to a rookie starter at LT and in his improvement in year two. If I had to project an OL in round one is would be one of those more like Darnel...

Re: Is It Too Soon For Thoughts On Pick #9?
I really feel like trade down from #9 is coming - barring something crazy (Basically if the LSU WR or MJH are still on the board) With 4 QBs going Top Ten as my assumption (*) (*) Could 4 QBs going Top Ten also maybe force an error by another team picking Top 15? Like Bo Nix/Pennix goes Top 15 just ...

Re: Ranking the new additions
Are you taking into account the potential loss of a Comp Pick with the Everett signing?

What in the fresh meatball hell is this thread? Look, I like Bagent as much as the next guy, but he lacks an arm and no way he sees the field unless there is an injury.

Eagles fans I know did not think very much of him. But they also noted that by the time he was coming in - the whole Defense was collapsing Heard that myself.
