He’s been with them what he was expected to be with us.  Good run stopper, suspect in coverage.  He didn’t practice with us basically ever due to injury and was one of the only unvaxxed guys on the team.  He would be better than Carter for sure, but at the time it was honestly the right move.  He likely would’ve been cut anyways

The only part that hurts is that we are paying 2 million for him to play there.

The pro-bowl is just a popularity contest and is completely unwatchable event. 

Our issues are way bigger than a LBer who has issues staying healthy. If you want to get mad, go and look over the money and draft capital spent at QB. It makes the Perryman situation look like a warmup.

Just like the Butker thing though and Christenson not starting. Its just pure incompetence in evaluating.... he is still much better than Carter and we had him on a super cheap two year contract. We lose Carter next year and will have to pay someone more who will likely not be as good now.

We signed him bc we saw talent in him

and wanted him here.

 

we traded him bc he didn’t want to be here and didn’t practice along with internal vaccine shenanigans. 
 

it was the right move at the time. It was a free draft pick for us. 

How is paying 2M a “free” draft pick? Gotta hear this.

      Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.

      It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?

      I can't see a world where the money goes down, but maybe your lottery odds are now your contract numbers you can offer.  Thunder? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 20 million.  Hornets? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 80 million.  Some form of a system where the money is still there, but so is the freedom of choice (on top of bad teams getting *some* competitive advantage to signing them).
