I hope we make some free agency splash. And I know this article is about DJ and Brown, but gawd is there any way in hell we can move Tyrus Thomas?

I believe if TT would have been dealt with, it would have been in the draft. But not one of those teams is willing to take all that money and Thomas. Not sure if there will be any team willing to take on the money and give us something in return.

Also, Diddy, I thought Kemba was going to take over since he was the 9th pick over all last year. Thought we were riding with him now and letting DJ walk?

I'm excited to see what Kemba can do with full reign over the position, but no way we should let DJ walk for nothing. I've always liked DJ and hope if he doesn't stay as the backup that we get some value for him and move him to a good team. He's a good player and a good dude.

I just think it's the logical thing to do in extending the QO to him, so we cover ourselves and guarantee compensation in some way.

But again, I have no idea why we extended the QO to UPS. I'd much rather have Dj White in tow.

One wonders if Cho is even trying at this point.

Two days of bad news in a row. The Bobcats were taking a SF. Gilchrist was the #1 SF on everyone's list, so they took him. Doesn't mean they loved him more than the other top 5 prospects, they just couldn't acquire more assets, so they had no choice.

Now they restrict Augustin & Brown.

Yeah, Cho's quit.

One would hope. With the Bobcats, expect the worst.

They couldn't have offered Augustin "LESS" to guarantee that he walks?

Not sure I understand what you are getting at with the last sentence? Or really anything that you are saying for that matter.

All we did was extend a qualifying offer. They are both young players with some value. No point in not considering retaining them. Especially Augustin. Hell, DJ could compete for the starting PG spot, and is at the very least much needed depth. You could project him having a critical roll if he were to resign.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By frankw · Posted

      Oh please with the wallowing in victimhood I'm going to take my ball and go home routine. You were just in here referring to people as super weird haters because they don't completely agree with your borderline delusional spin on what Bryce Young is and isn't as a fourth year starter. We can hope by some miracle that Bryce Young will actually be able to lead a formidable passing offense this season without being irrational homers and pretending verfiable data and what we have seen with our own two eyes doesn't tell us exactly what he has been to this point which is someone who moves the ball at a historically low rate.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      I am curious who's behind all of this though. A video and photos from years ago surfacing? Someone has a vendetta and is driving this PR campaign. I'm loving it, but I'd also like to know who said mystery figure is.

      I say positive things about Bryce when he earns them. Which he has a handful of times. It is all here and on the record but your lobby won’t focus on that or the flat out truth inside of our critical comments.  It is a constant thing with him and his backers - one or two good things and people are trying to extrapolate that to proof we should commit to him, while ignoring or making excuses for the larger portion of his track record.  When he is able to consistently turn in franchise QB extension worthy outings the tone of the posts will reflect that.  I have already said that if he would play like he did in the WC as often as we need him to, I would be okay with keeping him.  See you don’t want to talk about that though because it shows actual fair minded evaluation not stanning.
