That feels like a lot of money for Perine. We're talking about a guy who has rushed for less than 1000 yards in the last five seasons... combined.

Somewhat has fresh legs.  He was thought of just a bruiser early in his career but he showed with the Bengals  he has receiving back capabilities and can pass block. 

Sean Payton loves to rotate RBs, ones that can do it all and Perine has shown he can when given the opportunity.  

Also, I wouldn’t count 2018 and 2019, Washington and Miami did not give him any chances.  He’s had 500 scrimmage yards per season with the Bengals.  Obviously not eye popping numbers but for a back who can do it all and has fresh legs.  I think it’s a fair deal.

Josh McDaniels clearly didn't learn a damn thing from his debacle in Denver. He's doing the exact same thing in Vegas. He might end up black balled from the league after this.

I was living outside of Denver at the time and was going to nearly every home game (company had a suite at Mile High) and tried to tell folks it was every bit as bad as Lane Kiffen in Oakland, the only difference being that the Broncos didn't air out the dirty laundry like crazy ass Al Davis.

I remember thinking about a month after the Broncos hired McDipstick that they needed to fire him.  He had already set the place on fire in that short amount of time.

By his own admission, he doesn't deal well with people.  He commented that he had improved in that area since the Great Denver Debacle, but I don't see any evidence of it.  If the Raiders Razing ends up like the Denver Debacle, he may be back under Hoodie's wing.  Hoodie is not exactly a people person, either, but he manages to keep McDipstick in line.

His game-time decision making has not exactly been stellar either.  Which begs the question about whether his success was his, some chemistry he had with Brady and Hoodie, or was due to Brady and despite him.

Davis ought to be standing in the median of some busy intersection with a sign saying he needs money to fire and replace Josh McDaniels.  If he picked the right intersection in Vegas, he'd probably have the money in a matter of hours.

As an offensive mind, he can be amazing.

As far as leadership though, I wouldn't trust him to run a lemonade stand.

    • Agreed. This is why I believe we should get a veteran Inside linebacker. The market is prime to pick one up. 
    • My big issue with Mesidor in the 1st is that he's a 6th year college player who will be a 25 year old rookie. I mean, we're talking about a guy who's as old as some guys are when we're talking about second NFL contract. A literal man playing amongst boys. Will that translate when everyone else on the field is a grown ass man too? I get really nervous about these older prospects who blow up in their final year of college play. He's not quite XL level where XL did practically nothing before his final year but Mesidor's final year was definitely the anomaly. He went from solid college player who might get an NFL opportunity to being talked about as a 1st round prospect. That's a HUGE red flag for me.
    • Every player can't be a top 20 at their position. We have to get out of that mindset. The good key players at key positions will fill in the gaps for them AND help them improve over time. Bring in FAs that are good enough. Not the best FA at his position or a great player or even a particularly good player. Just an NFL level talent. The good key players that fill in the gaps should be acquired through the draft. That is why you get the best player available unless it's a position you already have a good key player there. Exception is if your team is on the cusp of having a super bowl team, and a few plays a game will actually make the difference. Then you chase the big time FAs to get you over the hump. You don't spend on big time FAs when you know you're 3-4 years away from competing. The cap and average length of NFL careers aren't built for that.
