Worse than that, if he had not been injured he gets extended and the first year does not have to be 17.4 or whatever the hell his 5th year contract pays. They could have cut it down with the planned extension that did not happen.,

Up front, control that and you are ahead of the game every week. The receiver stuff is Bryce centric. To me, protect Bryce first. We have enough skill position guys that if he is really any good he can make it work. If we protect him.

I have this feeling that our history was part of Morgan’s pitch. Bet he told him all about it. Sam Mills forward. edit: if I wanted to sell a LB on coming here, I would have highlights cut and play it for him. All the way front to back, our history our guys, and tell him we wanted him because we think he can carry it forward.

Well Phillips IS a risk, injury wise. Lloyd? In what world could even a bad version not be a big upgrade at the position compared to the last three years?

This is one of my big sources of entertainment. And I have been entertained.

You got that right.

You could look at it like I look at XL/Coker. Coker offsets the XL error. Dan got Lloyd 5 mil per year cheaper than people estimated. He got Walker way under the estimates. I don’t think Walker is great but given the situation that was good work. Phillips got paid but collectively we made out pretty okay. 10 mil cheaper on Walker and 15 mil cheaper over the contract for Lloyd. That is 20 (oops 25) mil saved apply it to Phillips and you get him for 25 per year x 4. The inferior (we think) guy from the Chargers got 4x25.

Feeling a lot better. Stress is much relieved. I know he isn’t perfect or close, but I was willing to do a multi year deal to address that mess.

If he can do to use what he did to the Cowboys, more power to him.

Pauline has been being mostly right about this stuff for a long time.

S, ILB, DT or DE. Maybe if a viable LT plummets down to us, you do that. I haven’t seen anyone listed near 19 at C. I absolutely do not want a TE or a WR at 19 and will be hoping we don’t do that. Maybe trade down would be good. The top of the second looks pretty fertile to me. I would be good with getting something we could use to get into that area a couple of times.

I saw something a couple of pages back I really had to restrain myself from replying to, on that front. I typed paragraphs of rebuttal stuff and did not hit send.

Wow he actually pretends to consider week 1 for Icky as realistic? That is highly questionable judgement right there.

There is the Norfolk Canyon bottom, and then there is the Mariana Trench. But whatever, I just wanted them to remove the big excuses of a bad OL like we saw happen after 2023. They have given this kid or tried to give him everything you could ask for. We don’t need to be feeling like we need yet another year of wait and see after 2026. We need to see, now.

Maybe. I am hoping they will get ahead of it with a rookie to develop this year. Money in that OL, just too much to add to it. I thought we’d get stuck for more years and more money too. And don’t think he is on par with Icky. We had Nothing though, so I am just really relieved today.

I have been leaning that way. The money and every time I see that huge brace he has to wear I think about why and it doesn’t seem to be temporary.

I don’t think they will take a tackle in the 1st this year. That might be a next year option when they have concrete results on Icky and see how Moton does in 2026. Same for Walker I guess. They won’t have any of that next month.

Very relieved. And one year… at that price? And got Lloyd at under the predicted rate too. Good going. This is the best option we had. By far. Short of a trade or a trade up in the draft. Neither of which I would have been real happy with but we were in a bad spot. I don’t think he is quite on Icky’s level but he was the best way to go. I am surprised he took a 1 year deal. I probably would have preferred three year but we can develop someone this year. All in all, this is the best case scenario. Thank you Dan.

Dallas didn’t really listen to him. I hope we do. I

I’d say this Pearce deal is far worse than what took Hardy down.

He obviously listened to his elders. I believe my grandmother actually told me this: if you want to know how your girl is gonna look in 20 years look at her mother.

His usual way. Bail the pocket to the right side, or slip forward past the blockers into that space between them and the LOS. Or just throw it sideways..

I didn’t know what you meant at first until I thought about it a second. Yeah that is in play. Hmmm.

That post is so full of poo I don’t where to start.

You can certainly find lawyers to attack the victim, and the police. The ‘best’ ones have no conscience, no remorse and will say anything. It seems like the guiltier the defendant is, the more outrageous their claims.
