Adults

Seeking autographs at training camp are sad,creepy, and pathetic.

Not the ones who come down to the fence after watching practice but the ones who sit at the fence the whole practice and scream for players 10 years their junior and calling then sir and Mr.

I think that if they're calling them sir and Mr that at least those adults were raised with manners and some class.

Nothing wrong with any person of any age trying to get an autograph of his favorite player or players imo

Now if said adults are shoving little kids out of the way, then I do have a serious problem with that!

Was the guy that was yelling Mr. an older guy trying to get a helmet signed?

Most of them are probably looking to resell them. But why anyone wants an autograph in the first place is beyond me. Then again, some of these people swear to rage if Medlock doesn't start. Some people take this team and sport wayyyy too seriously.

I'm ok with autographs. It makes for nice memorabilia but what I witnessed was pathetic

I've heard a lot of negative comments about adults asking for or and trying to get autographs for themselves. Personally, I don't see anything wrong with it. It is the adults that are buying the tickets, paying for overpriced parking, drinking the overpriced beer in the stadiums, buying the overpriced paraphernalia, vehicle stickers, tags on the front of our vehicles and so forth. I have never gotten an autograph from anyone, but I would not feel bad about asking for an autograph from a player on my favorite team that I support.

Yeah autographs are cool, but I feel like I'm beyond that now at my age. Dick LeBeau played golf at my club this year and I could've easily gotten an autograph, but I just said I'd like to shake hands with a hall of famer and joke about him being the godfather of the 3-4. He smiled and we talked a little football. He had nothing but praise about Cam.

    • Would be happy with Lomu or Iheanachor at 19. Fano is intriguing but I don't think he makes it.
    • II see it this way: We have to look at long-term needs and current depth.  We have filled some key spots with players on one-year contracts.  I firmly believe that they intend to pay Bryce some big bucks next year.  That means you cannot hope that your rookies in 2027 can fill the spots vacated by the veterans you could not afford to re-sign.   We need to consider the cap and the fact that the need to start a rookie is not viewed as a positive by coaches and general managers, but they value first contracts--so it is a delicate balance. I think they have to look at the cap by position--"Can we afford a $50m QB and a $100m OL?  That is half the cap, before you pay your WRs and RBs and TEs.  They need to start getting younger on the OL as well.   I am not suggesting that we draft OT in round 1, but we could and I would get it.  RT on a 1-year deal, they may have intel about Ickey (who was not the best LT, to be honest) and 32-year old Moton is on a bad wheel.   Now if you go by Morgan's history, you can almost tell what position we are going to address with the first pick by noting the positions he has not focused on in free agency.  DT, considering the lack of performance by those not named Derrick Brown and the loss of Robinson, is screaming to be addressed with a top player.  Wharton is not an early down DT (DE if you want to get technical) and our LBs need to be clean--they were not in 2025.  Look for a DT early. I also think we will address ILB (pass covering Will) on day 2.  The other day 2 pick will be an OT, in my view. Do not rule out CB.  We are thin there too, and Jackson is in his final year.  I am not sure that we love Smith-Wade.  Some crackhead on here talked about moving him to S----stay tuned.   Hopefully, a team wanting Ty Simpson will move up and offer us a pick or two to move back. DT WILB OT OC QB  (you heard it here 337th--but this pick could come sooner than you think.      
    • Bryce had some bad games, but he had some good ones as well (and this is coming from a Bryce skeptic). I think it's a little simplistic to put all the offensive woes on Bryce, you also should be looking at O-line play, receiver play, RB and TE play, and also coaching. There's no way when I look at the offense in it's totality am I ready to say that a so-so to bad offense was all on Bryce, and, I also can't say that we don't need to upgrade any position on offense, save Tetairoa McMillan (who also wasn't perfect) and maybe the starting guards and T-mo.
