Gotta figure there will be some discussion of Bozeman today, but I don't know if this is something that's genuinely possible.

Bozeman has been great here, but that $16.6 million is a huuuuuge hunk of money. He deserves way more than the $2.8 million he got last season if we want to continue with him. 

If we put him somewhere in the top 10 salaries for centers in the NFL, we're looking between roughly $8 million and $12 million per season. And that's going to require some serious cap massaging and converting a lot of the salary into bonuses... which oftentimes end up as dead cap with us.

He's 28, almost 29 by the time the season gets into full swing... could we get enough out of him to roll out a full five year contract and not regret it down the line?

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Joe Person Draft Weekend inside info

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
