Ive seen some Mack cut talk.....weird how this is playing put. Allen and williams at those numbers is dumb as well. I get herbo needs his weapons and all, just looks a rookie GM moves.

And they will need to pay the QB soon

Third round pick and a player...

I know he didnt look like the ramsey of old, but hes not done either...... Funny how the "fug dem picks" changed into "please take my high priced vets, I need picks in return".... Still worth the SB, but rams youth talents are bare.....

phins won this, 100%

Maybe we can get Hopkins for a decent price if that’s all it took for Ramsey?

Adrian Wilson could be a help

That should reset the QB market, me thinks...... feel worse than hernaiy, i need to dig in their GM and hope he never comes to carolina....

Simply put, you have to make a choice. Like the panthers with tri turner and norwell. Chargers need to pick one WR and draft the others replacement, same for the bosa&mack deal....you can not tie up that much cash in one spot...

Bro check on bhops salary........and his recent PED issue, one more fail and its full season I think. High risk and he was never a speed demon.

I would imagine they eat part of his salary and get the dead cap hit like we did for Moore. We don’t need him to be a speed demon, just a big body with a huge catch radius for our rookie which is exactly what he is. If one of our 4ths gets it done, you think it’s worth it?

Those Rams picks would have been gems.  Very possible one of the 1sts would have been a top 5. Also, us taking those 3 picks would have made them a weaker team in the future as they’d have another expensive player added. We had the opportunity to make a real fleecing.

I'm hoping the Boze $$ numbers thrown out are negotiations. They ask for $16M, we offer $11M....settle for $13.5-$14M. Done. 

Our cap opens up next year anyway. Gotta keep the OL intact and Elflien ain't it with a rookie QB and a rebuilding WR/TE corps.

I do want him and that 4th would force me even more...........just the PED deal. He can not help the team if suspended for the whole year. 

Our asst GM and current WR coach, should know 1000x more than what i do about hop.

 

Not long ago he was right there in the best WR talks. 

 

Is he still the same great WR without PEDs? That my main hang up...

I have been eyeballing him for about 2 weeks now. Spotrac estimates his salary around $9m, but they are off a lot--I think $5-7 gets him because the TE market in the draft is so deep.

Done. He's still young enough and could be in one of those situations where he just needs the burn in a system that understands his strengths/weaknesses. I think Brown can do that with his background with TEs.

For the burns trade, hell yea, that team is rebuilding and the teams in its division are tough each week. 

Its crazy how things change soooo fast now-a-days. 

Finesserererer miss the boat.
