I get that, but the Saints have convinced me that the salary cap is not real. Gettleman's main problem is that he believed that the cap was real.

So if a 2nd year player doesn't become "elite" it's a slump? Got it. Who'd you want at 7 last year that you haven't gotten over?

In regard to Chinn, numbers going down because of a position change is not a slump. I'm a little concerned with the position change causing an actual slump. I know he played safety in college, I just hope they aren't putting too much on him too soon.

Nope. I'm not a draft guy or an intentional tank guy. It's just that a Kyle Allen can get you a Teddy Bridgewater or a Derrick Brown, but a Jimmy Clausen can get you a Cam Newton. I'm half joking, but if Sam busts here, I'd just as soon have a top 5 pick next year.

If you aren't a legit contender, all a quality backup QB does is wreck your draft status. As far as vet coaching up Sam, he's got actual coaches for that.

He definitely hasn't eaten any wins in a while

I hope you're right. It has disaster potential.

Bad is definitely a safe bet. Mediocre might be a little bold this year

The gameday threads will be filled with knee jerk overreaction Brian Burns will get at least 1.5 sacks Someone will catch a ball while being defended by Donte Jackson The O line will be mediocre Edit: That last one might be a little bold

Rhule’s only NFL experience is OL coach. I sure hope that is an indicator that he knows what he’s doing there. If Moton was going to make the switch he should have done it a few years back. If his agent told him he could get LT money, I can’t blame him for not doing something that might not be comfortable to him. it is strange that they’ve changed their tune considerably about BC. I wonder what they’ve seen, good or bad.

I’m starting a GoFundMe campaign to get him half a couch

Only if you’ve got a really good starter and are a playoff caliber team trying to stay in the hunt. If Sam sucks or goes down, I want Will Grier at the helm and a top 5 pick next year, not Teddy or Minshew coming in and stringing together a handful of garbage wins.

I can only read in Spanish or Cantonese. A translation of said recap would be terrific.

Yeah, Teddy force fed to Anderson the first third of the season, now his agent and half the huddle thinks he's Megatron.

It was Bell. And to be clear, Gettleman said that Bell was left handed and also noted that he had “left tackle feet.” And to be fair to Gettleman, Byron Bell was just as awful on the right.

Yeah, I thought that was dumb. So we refused a Bear’s offer that was enough to move up for Trevor? I know what he means, but like you said, it’s stat rubbish.

I get why Robbie doesn't want to play without an extension in place. I also get why the Panthers don't want to give him one. We've got a lot of young talent we are going to spend big money on to retain in the next few years. #2 WR isn't the spot where you want to tie up a bunch of money.

I agree, but if he's mediocre, he's a huge upgrade to our QB2 position. If he looks mediocre, I would assume he's going to be a journeyman backup QB. Extend him as such, and let him compete with/mentor/backup the new guy.

Rashaad Gaulden makes Hiruki Nakamura look like Jordan Pugh

Yeah, but the Jets atrocious OL have to be taken into account too. They were worse than the Bell/Chandler Panthers OL of 2014 where Cam scored 18 TDs to 12 picks in a 7-8-1 season.

Yeah, I've never had a situation where I've thought, "another naked dude in the room would really enhance this experience."

The offseason argument generators ain't what they used to be. This guy isn't fit to carry PFFL's mousepad.

The biggest question for sure is QB. If Sam looks awful, I have full faith that the FO staff will move on and try again next year. Their philosophy is obviously QB and LT are not worth paying high dollar for unless they’re known entities.

Please change your user name to Lionel Bitchy.

Jiminey Christ, man. He inherited one of the worst/talent depleted defenses in the NFL and coached Brian Burns and a bunch of rookies to a respectable level. I mean, he’s not ‘hindsight message board guy’ good, but I don’t think he’s got a ton of figuring out to do.
