Eric Reid files collusion grievance against NFL


Recommended Posts

It’s going to be really difficult if not impossible to prove that the 32 NFL franchises have not decided independently that he isn’t worth signing.

Yeah, it seems pretty clear that he’s getting blackballed along with Kaep but proving t is another thing altogether.

I probably would have waited until after mid May - June.

This, and also until maybe Vaccaro and/or Boston get signed.

If a team signs him now, it can mess up their compensatory picks for next year.  If they wait until the 9th it will not.  Take a look around the league--what teams have signed any Free Agents since the draft?  This timing was just dumb on his part.

per an unsourced report from an nfl.com reporter that wasn't corroborated by neither reid or john lynch.

Mike Garofolo, and neither Reid's camp or Lynch would confirm or deny it.

Maybe he wants too much money like the rest of the unsigned FA safeties. Got to turn it into a pity party instead though.  Hes only hurting his dumb ass yet again. Maybe he should go pick up trash for a living.

    • Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at. 
    • Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often. 
    • With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
