so after seeing all these crazy contracts players are gettin this offseason a thought crossed my mind and just wanted to see what u guys thought about it? ( if this has been brought up before i appologize, i didnt see anything about it) but do u think there should be a cap on how much a vetran player can make? i know this has been mentioned for rookies but i havent heard anythng about vetrans. haynesworth getting 100 million dollar contract, and guys like peppers wanting the same thing is just crazy imo. especially with the economy the way it is right now. what u guys think?

Wanna see a players strike in a hurry?...

ill be the first to agree that the players would hate it. and as a fan i would hate to see a strike. i think i would go crazy withouth a football season. but i just dont think some of these players are worth that type of money

I don't disagree with you. But then, companies that are laying off people should not be handing out ginormous bonuses to the CEO, but it's happening all over...

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
