Bears and Broncos willing to open up the books.

We'd be the last team to open ours.

Incorrect by a long shot. Dallas will never open theirs. NE, Washington would be right there with them. They don't want to because it would show small market owners they have TONS of extra money that could be disbursed in revenue sharing. Hell it might show they have been hiding money that should have been shared in the first place.

Spot on point.

Teams opening their books would have consequences in the league well beyond the CBA. It woudl drive a wedge between small market and big market teams.

Can you say, "MLB?"

And it's not so much what, how or where the teams are making money as much as it is the right of a privately owned entity to keep their books shut.

Unless I have a publicly owned company with a bunch of stockholders to keep happy and Wall Street has their rules, why should I open my books every time someone asks?

How about if everyone on the board agrees to show me all their personal bank records?

    • Yeah. How he shows up in training camp with a year of NFL training and nutrition will tell us all we need to know.  Side note... how has Bryce still managed not to find the weight room?
    • I hope he finds his lane in year 2.  Now that we signed Walker, I'm really intrigued how Dan feels about the DL. Is there a piece there in R1 that presents value/BPA and fills a void for one of the spots w/ DB and Wharton.  I'll give Wharton another year to show us why he was signed here. With A'Shawn gone, I don't think BBIII is it.  Our edges are set and our LBs are balanced. Horn/Mike Jack and Moehrig will hold the secondary together. DB is, well...DB.  However, I think this is an area that is the biggest question mark right now. I see 1 of 3 spots that are locked and loaded for us. If we move to a 4 down front, I assume Phillips would slide down to be the additional linemen, but we still have questions about the other two spots in either scheme.  I'd feel better with a tradeback, but I do wonder how McDonald would do here. Maybe Woods....but McDonald really does peek my interest.  Or, can Jackson take that next step. The coaching staff speaks highly of him for what little he played. Here's hoping he stays healthy and comes into TC with something to prove. There's a spot to be taken, here's hoping he takes it.
