A second.......plus we don't have to pay 16.5 million dollars.

All of a sudden, we'd have a pooLOAD of money to spend.

Resign Kyle? No problem

Resign Goings? No problem

Sign Torry Holt? No problem

Sign all of our draft picks, including a new 2nd? No problem

...and for the record, put me down as the forum's NUMBER ONE fan of second round draft picks. I say they are generally the best deals for the money. You're still getting a top notch draftee, but at an exponentially lower salary than a first rounder.

So all those people (me included) that were saying that the Patriots sold Cassel and Vrabel too cheap to the Chiefs were really talking about the Panthers because the guy that wrote that article made it sound like the deal for Peppers has been in the works since before that trade was made.

I'm cool with it though... that 34th pick is still a high pick and we lose Pep's huge salary and can (hopefully) get a good player for a much lower salary than a first rounder.

      Never, and it doesn't have to be an old grizzled vet, sometimes a vet can learn something from a young player too.   Do you not see players talking to each other between plays, quarters, on the bench, wherever, in EVERY sport? It's what players do, especially the great ones, they're always working on their craft and learning tips from others to better themselves.   So when your entire receiving room outside of one player, who has mostly played special teams in his career, has played 1 season or less in the NFL, it's not a lot of experience there in the locker room and on the sideline and is a tad concerning in regards to the proper growth of all these young WRs with great potential.

      So me "putting my foot down" would be me spending more money each season to watch the games without sound at the bar? Do you not see how dumb that sounds? Streaming a game here or there isn't tough, but doing it for 17 games a season, when more than half the time the quality is terrible if it's even working at all, and it's just an awful experience to follow your favorite team. It's literally spending at minimum an extra $100 a season to have a worse viewing experience if I were to "put my foot down" as you say, and then don't get to also be able to easily watch all my fantasy players as a bonus on top. I spent at over a dozen years going to the bar every Sunday to watch us play, so now that I get to watch from the comfort of my couch, plus get all the other games, and spend less money doing so, yea, I'm going to pay that money without a second thought, it's a great deal for me and tons of other fans.

      I wanted Stroud as well because Reich only wanted folks who fit his scheme and he isn't a good enough coach to adapt to his players. Canales didn't have that choice and was hired knowing that his job was developing Bryce. To his credit he was able to embrace the challenge and make the necessary changes.
