Louis Delmas?

With the Lions signing Bush as well as a few others already, it looks like Delmas won't be brought back in Detroit

He could probably be signed for cheap considering his recent injury issues, but I think he could be worth the risk as if he can stay on the field, he would be a difference maker out there

Thoughts?

Always liked delmas, but injuries concern me.

That's why I think he could be signed on a pretty cheap 1 or 2 year deal, I'd be willing to take the risk on a 2 year deal since he could be a big time playmaker if he can stay on the field for 16 games

Like Delmas along with Adrian Wilson, Dwan/LaRon Landry, "Kenny Phillips", Babineaux, Michael Huff, Glover Quinn, and Pollard. All of them could be have at a really reasonable price, but most likely isn't going to happen.

Look for us to go after these guys: Corey Lynch, Chris Maragos, Danny McCRay, Jeromy Miles, Jamarca Sanford, Madieu Williams, Josh Barrett, Craig Dahl, Matt Giordano. Yea, these guys are Panthers kind of guys.

What is getting old is the fact that we are so strangled by the contracts to our running backs that were cutting great players and scooping through garbage to try and make our team competitive.

I will not let it go and will continue to bring it up whenever the hell I feel it is relevant

No, its really getting old now. If you want to be funny, talk about the LBs. "I think we need more LBs". So please quit.

It's was all good moves at the time extending Dwill and Stew, and adding Tolbert. Now, it looks really bad. Who's to blame? Hurney or Rivera and Chud? Foxy ran the hell out of Dwill and Stew. Why can't Rivera and Chud?

We actually do. Hard to be ironic

I laughed at both the Williams and Stewart moves. Specifically D-Will's, because it was the worst and the others are not as bad if Williams didn't already have his contract. Hurney fuging magic.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
