heh yea shame we'd never make an

effort to go after him.

he has multiple DUI's and is one screw up away from being suspended for an entire season. plus he held out nearly an entire season and may have cost Chargers a playoff run.

not exactly a team player if you ask me. phenomenal receiver but he has a lot of baggage.

Did not know this. I'd trust Rivera's judgment since he does have experience with him although I don't think he will be adding any WR but just add a receiving TE. As far as players holding out, they do it a lot to get away form the team, hell Palmer threatened to retire. I think VJ wanted out bad might not remember that right. I like the list of FA wrs but I doubt any of them (that are good) are going anywhere.

oh trust me I'd love to have VJax here. he is one of the best WR's in the game, but it's understandable why we wouldn't go after him.

IIRC, Jackson's changed his stance on holding out if franchised, probably cause it's going to be for just over 10M, as opposed to the 3M he was getting with the RFA tender.

one reason i think we at least look at floyd is that the san diego system has depended on big receivers. floyd knows the system and still has a good few years left. i don't care about the mentor thing, but we know that he isn't the risk that someone like VJax is. we also really don't have anyone that can compare with him. both lafell and gettis have a little size on them, but floyd is about 20 pounds heavier than either one and has at least an inch on both.

Top guys almost never become available so it was always a pipe dream. Only chance really would be to target players from a team like the Raiders/Jets/Vikes who have multiple deserving guys expiring and only one tag. Too bad the Panthers also seem to be in that position as well so I don't think they are going to outbid everyone on whichever of the 4 receivers hits the market. The only TE I think they have a shot at worth getting is Boss.

      Who do you despise more… LaMelo Ball or Bryce Young

      By Lurk21 · Posted

      Names I'd keep an eye on... Coby White,  Jalen Suggs, Amen Thompson  and Stephen Castle...  3 teams except Orlando has checked on Melo before and rumblings of sours getting rid of fox too. I'd think they think Melo and Wemby would make them nuclear out west.

      Well he somehow had 12 preseason carries for not playing. He also has 20 carries in the regular season, not three. He has actually played in about 7% of the offensive snaps for this regular season(33% of the special teams snaps). This isn't stuff you have to make up, these are very easily referenced statistics, man.

      It's not common for a RB to recover from two ACL tears in the same knee. It's fairly rare. You are correct that it isn't the career ender that it used to be but there is also the fact that we appear to have largely moved on with the additions of Dowdle and Etienne.  Dobbins is a very good example. He has basically missed 54% of his career regular season games since he came into the league in 2020. It will end up being 57% at the conclusion of this season. It's a big contributing factor to why he is on this third NFL team in 6 years. It's certainly possible that may be 4 by the beginning of next season. I would say there is very little chance that Brooks ever contributes in any meaningful way in Carolina. Possibly with another team but I am extremely skeptical of his future here because of those injuries and because of the roster.
