Mr. Scot

I would think of Boston more as a Rivera guy than a Hurney guy.

I was thinking he was on a two year deal. If it was only one, then yeah he's gone.

That could very well be what the expression means to Fitterer though. That's largely how I took it.

That'd make sense.

That's probably accurate

Lack of good quarterbacks or lack of good quarterback development? I've seen that question posed a couple of times. It's a valid one.

I suppose Paradis is still possible but we've got so few offensive linemen under contract it's hard to say. Worth noting that we are in the period where franchise players can be designated, so we could get news on Moton soon.

Probably went for a big hit but missed.

Mentioned in the other thread that Fitterer has been meeting with the scouting personnel. Guessing that they've been doing roster evaluations and these transactions are coming out of that. Makes me wonder if anybody else is in the pipeline.

Okay so far today, Boston, Weatherly, and Palardy. Wonder if anybody else is in the pipeline. Also wonder when we're going to hire a DL coach

They didn't. He's only been informed of his release. It won't be official until the league year starts.

It's just noting a trend from those particular years. Guys drafted from 2017 forward would still be on their rookie contracts. And to be clear, it's not going to stop teams from drafting quarterbacks high, but obviously they need to do a better job of either drafting the right ones or developing the ones they draft.

Seeing word from Jeremy Fowler that Stephen Weatherly and Mike Palardy have gotten the same news. Apparently, it's cut down day.

As I recall, Fitterer was meeting with all the scouting staff for a two week period to get our offseason plans started. Gotta figure these recent transactions are probably coming out of those meetings.

I'm curious which other contracts you would put on that list.

I'd be for it. Feels like it's been forever since we had a really good safety (other than if you count Chinn)

Where did you get that I'm set on drafting a quarterback? I've said repeatedly that all of the runners up to Lawrence make me nervous for varying reasons.

Didn't we already release Short a couple of days ago? I never saw anything on if that designation was being applied to him.

I would say Tepper has been owner long enough that he deserves to be evaluated on his performance. Again though, my hope is that he's learned from his mistakes.

Thanks. I was thinking it was CJ something. Maybe I'm remembering someone else.

There was a safety that everybody really liked at the Senior Bowl, a guy that Matt Rhule mentioned specifically when he was asked about draftable players. Naturally, I've forgotten his name

Manziel...damn. I was desperately hoping the Cowboys would take him. Word was that Jerry Jones really wanted to but everybody in the Cowboys draft room was fighting to talk him out of it. Practically had to tie him to a chair. I remember there being a story that either a cab driver or a homeless guy told Jim Haslam he should pick Manziel and he listened. That was as Cleveland Browns a story as there ever was.

Didn't see that coming yet, but not against it.

Ah I was thinking you mixed up GM and QB.
