As a teenage boy, that would have been good enough! I grew up in the 80's when you had to make do with your dad's stack of dusty 1970's playboys and the sears catalog bra section.

Absolutely. I'm honestly excited to see this group in action though. Burns, YGM, Fox, Nixon, Brown, Jones, Reddick; That's a lot of bad-ass coming at a QB!

THIS is a big ass-end.

dammit, my grandma lived next door.

I'm actually married to a former dancer, and Olivia's form is weak. (I could definitely let it slide though) Getting old sucks ass, but it sure beats the alternative.

Pretty sure the only play he needed to remember that night was to hit the gap at full speed and never look back!

I played 1 match of beach volleyball last Saturday, and I'm still limping and my shoulder has a weird popping noise now!

Damn Olivia, my birthday's Friday! Come on down!

how does opting out affect his contract? Did he get paid last year? Do we get an extra rookie contract year? I can't recall seeing anything about that at all.

I noticed during the draft that a lot of the players ended up opting out for at least part of the season to "get ready" for the draft. Does that mean that we might have more pro-ready rookies this season?

Appreciate it. I had missed (forgotten?) this signing completely somehow.

He's on the official roster again, listed as a LB/DE.

Right? Irving is our starting LT going into camp. Greg has a 50/50 chance, at best, of making the team.

And we signed him for 2 years, $6M! Not too shabby.

Love that our staff recognized our limitations in the red zone/ 3rd downs last year and went out and grabbed a guy to fix that. He's our best FA pick up on offense.

Is this a good time to reminisce about the fact that Chase Winovich was drafted with the #77 pick we traded to move up for Greg Little? Dude's a beast.

Hard to guess what Brady's going to get up to this season. Last year CMC was out except for early on, and TB didn't have the arm to really threaten the long ball. He went for the easy, quick pass and let his receivers run up YAC.

Our offseason, draft included, was all about addressing the red zone. Moore had 6 TD's on 35 catches, Arnold had 4 TD's on 31 catches, and Marshall had 10 TD's on 48 catches in 7 games. Add in an improved O-line, a h-back who wakes up looking for someone to block, and giving CMC ample time to heal instead of rushing him back in, and we should score a bunch more TD's. And I still haven't mentioned Sam being a scrambler.

I'm still 50/50 on David Moore being ahead of him. I think he's a very talented player that should have been gone long before 59, but I still consider WR a luxury pick. As you point out, there's a lot of weapons ahead of him. I'm going to be a little more optimistic than you, and predict 500-600 yards and 8-9 TD's. His height makes him a red zone target, and he's also wicked fast with a QB that can actually pass it 40+ yards, so he'll get a few long TD's.

post season pie!!

He still has almost $15M left on his contract for the next 2 years, but none of it is guaranteed. So he may be willing to restructure with whatever team picks him up.

Already decided that his might be my next jersey.

Ian has definitely not produced as we hoped he would, But I'm looking at Tremble as an upgrade to Armah and Manhertz this year. Manhertz had 12 catches for 142 yards and 1 TD IN 5 YEARS AS A PANTHER, but was kept around for his blocking ability. Armah (a TE in college) had 8 catches for 29 yards and 21 carries for 35 yards and 3 TD's In 4 years as a panther. So, even if tremble doesn't develop as a pass-catcher (I think he will), he instantly improves 2 positions, and allows Brady to get a little bit more creative with the play book.

They should have tanked that final game against us so that they would get a better pick this year. We all know that losing is the only way to get better! am I doing it right guys??
