Martin doesn't sign retirement papers by 4 pm

Will not report to camp and is on the will not report list. Why would you want to keep this guy around if he doesn't have the desire to play? Let him go and fill the spot with someone who actually wants a chance.

We put him on the "Did Not Report" list instead, his spot was filled earlier when we signed Wile and Capers...

My guess is he doesn't want to practice against the Dolphins and will be back for rest of the camp!

Hated the signing when it was first announced, despite needing all the help we can get at OT... hate it even more now.  Dude wasted everyone's time, and suddenly decides to retire literally days before training camp.

Someone else could've had this dude's spot and minicamp/OTA reps.

didn't know enough about his play to hate the signing initially.  But I'm sure ANNOYED about this mess right now.

DG seemed really pissed about that when he spoke this morning. "Not going to go there" regarding whether Martin had an injury or not is interesting too. Seems Martin never told the team anything then out of nowhere he's like "I'm retiring and I have a back injury." Actually I kind of doubt he has any injury at all...

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
