The NFL Shield At Midfield

think marc james is going to be making any bets this year?

any sources? that was fast e: nevermind

if that happened i think the jig would be up and that would be all the proof we needed that gettleman is an evil genius

man what the hell

i mean lmao david foucault graded out higher than both hurst and henderson in his starts

seantrel henderson graded one spot higher than byron bell last year on PFF. he was the third worst tackle in the entire league. james hurst was the sixth worst. our own blindside graded out higher than both of them. i mean things like this are easy to say when you watch them on some other team getting their quarterbacks killed. the rhetoric out of this fanbase probably would be the same right now. it's amusing to me how lining up nate chandler at RT and byron bell's ass up at LT was such a travesty but the proposed solution to that problem was either a 7th round rookie (which is what henderson actually was, not an UDFA) and a rookie UDFA in hurst whom nobody would recognize or care about if he wasn't a tar heel. making either of those two day one starters is every bit the "gamble" with cam's health that chandler or bell would have been even if they both turned in to all pros.

if philly brown continues to develop along with kelvin benjamin and we pluck a jaelen strong out of this receiver class in addition to a talented prospect to sit and learn for a year behind oher and olsen locked up we could have a pretty formidable offense going in to 2016.

the first part is only significant to you because you apparently didn't realize that there was a reason for that yes if cam was drafted in 2010 under the old CBA as the first overall pick he probably would have gotten record breaking money and it would be a non issue. in other news if the queen had a dick she'd be the king.

who the hell was drafted at quarterback in 2010 and is getting a big contract extension from the original teams right now anyway? look at this cavalcade of stars:. -Sam Bradford QB Oklahoma 1 1(1) St. Louis -The Golden Calf of Bristol QB Florida 1 25(25) Denver -Jimmy Clausen QB Notre Dame 2 16(48) Carolina -Colt McCoy QB Texas 3 21(85) Cleveland -Michael Kafka QB Northwestern 4 24(122) Philadelphia -John Skelton QB Fordham 5 24(155) Arizona -Jonathan Crompton QB Tennessee 5 37(168) San Diego -Rusty Smith QB Florida Atlantic 6 7(176) Tennessee -Dan LeFevour QB Central Michigan 6 12(181) Chicago -Joe Webb QB UAB 6 30(199) Minnesota -Tony Pike QB CINCINNATI 6 35(204) Carolina -Levi Brown QB Troy 7 2(209) Buffalo -Sean Canfield QB Oregon State 7 32(239) New Orleans -Zac Robinson QB Oklahoma State 7 43(250) New England

depending on what happens with wilson and the rumors of a fully guaranteed contract i'd be comfortable with cam getting 5 years/$75 million fully guaranteed or something like that. at least his cap figure will be exactly the same every year that way.

i guess that's a reference to kaepernick and dalton. think hard about the new CBA and then consider which rounds they were drafted in. also quarterbacks drafted in 2010 (drafted a year before cam since you mentioned it) were selected under a different CBA with different rules and aren't subject to the option system as first round QBs and others are now

ted thompson started off his packers career with two straight non-winning seasons ozzie newsome, widely considered among the elite GMs in the league, took over a ravens team in 2002 that had won a super bowl two years earlier. three of the next five seasons would be losing ones contrasted with two playoff trips, both one and dones. even if gettleman does suck and is an incompetent idiot he's going to be here for several years

can we just retire this argument to the straw man hall of fame already

oakland has $44 million in cap room according to overthecap i've got a good feeling about this

come on oakland you know you want to give him 5 years/$60 million with $20 million guaranteed

i am dead serious and not trying to be a smart ass here: has a big time franchise quarterback ever signed with another team other than the one that drafted him and mentioned "they didn't give me enough weapons" as the reason?

"the panthers didn't deserve to be in the playoffs!" who in the division deserved it more then? considering that this team did it with one hand tied behind its back i think that sort of evens things out.

nice

ink that contract greg

all this said though i swear if our opener is another 4:15 kickoff against the fuging bucs

reminds me of the acquisition of kemoeatu in 2006 for this team "can you imagine kemo and jenks side by side? who's going to be able to run on that?" then week 1 the falcons rushed for like 250 yards lol

set that mousetrap

him and lavonte david i know they're consensus elite players and they're undeniably among the best at their positions in the league, but it seems like they're just kind of there every time we play them. maybe one of them will have a nice pass breakup or a sack or something but that's it. i can't remember one of them just taking over a game by himself like we've seen luke, thomas davis, or hardy do.

i'm kind of surprised that we haven't heard reports of the panthers pursuing chris hairston. he's a sleeper with upside who could probably be had at a reasonable cost.

nicks, crabtree, and stevie johnson are out there. i don't think it's impossible that something might happen between those three.
