1984Echoes

I believe all of this... especially the bolded part.

Avila was NEVER "File & Trial"... Just sayin'... 😉

And Devin Sweet is pretty much hot garbage so I'm not certain what they're even seeing here...

Yeah, I haven't seen anything concrete about dumping Speaker Johnson... Just rumblings. Which don't amount to squat if that's what's being squawked about above...

Glasgow will be relatively cheap. Good player for us at OG... top-notch. But he'll be 32 next year and won't command max dollars. Detroit wants him and he wants Detroit. I see a reasonable 3-year contract for him. Jonah most likely leaving prompted me to push OC/OG need all the way up to the top. The O-Line makes this team go. **** up the O-Line and we **** up the entire season. Is nobody else aware of this? I'm quite happy with Powers-Johnson in the 1st. He could become the immediate starting LG. We have Sorsdal, who still needs some work. Foster in the 5th is another developmental guy who could play OG or possibly RT, if needed. I'd still like to re-sign Jonah... but even if we did, having Powers-Johnson, Foster, and Sorsdal as primary backups solidifies the O-Line for 2024 (TOP priority even given the Dire Straits of our CB's...). Some teams in cap-hell won't be able to franchise their FA CB. Or will have to choose between two top players, leaving one of them exposed. And players will WANT to come play for Dan Campbell and Detroit. We finally have an edge there. I like the Chiefs CB the most: Sneed. Get him, live with Sutton as #2 and Branch as nickel, and draft another high round CB to develop, whether that's 1st, 2nd, or a 3rd rounder. There are several guys I like in the 1st, Tampa is usually floating around in the 2nd and I like him hugely in that area, and Khyree Jackson is a fallback guy I like in the 3rd. We should be able to sign 1 FA pass-rusher. And we can draft a couple more. Repeat after me: "I trust in Brad Holmes. I am a believer."

He'll probably be assigned to Toledo. You may yet see him again...

The trade-Hooker-for-whatever-we-can-get idea is pretty asinine. IMO. Based on your excellent post here...

There will not be a "JARED GOFF" chant 2 seconds after Baker runs through with the Bucs. THAT will be a generic "Boo" the Bucs.

But the "Jared Goff" chants ramped up 20 decibels at the same time, or immediately after the Stafford boos. Like 2 seconds afterwards. No, this was all about Stafford & Goff. Not some generic opposition boos. "BOO" Stafford. "JARED GOFF, JARED GOFF, JARED GOFF!!!"

They showed the video of Stafford coming out of the tunnel... The boos ramped up 20 decibels as soon as they spotted him.

I am less concerned about credit and more about jinxing or something else going wrong... When we get the signature... a sigh of relief that it got done...

That was a: "What the ****?!?!" scream at the TV... And that was a WOO HOO just a couple minutes later (or, more like a "whew" wipe the sweat off my brow...).

That sounds like a smart idea...

From Buffalo to New Jersey? That's a long hike...

One rumor has Fields to the Falcons for their 2nd and a couple later round picks in 2025...

The question on Free Agents however... is who squeezes through the Franchise Tag process to become available...? According to contract/ cap issues... I believe Chris Jones and Danielle Hunter are freeing up in 2024. I'd take either one. Might be able to snag Kendall Fuller at CB... Or maybe Sneed with the Chiefs... That would devastate the Chiefs if they lost those two (Jones & Sneed)...

I forgot my /s.

The Bears will trade Fields to the Patriots for the #3 pick....

No comment until there's a signature on the dotted line... Only then, at that point, will I crow if he's still in that top10-top5 range...

I'm thinking exactly along these lines...

He is consistently being mocked in the early 20's, sometimes before then... So we'd have to trade up for him it appears.

It reminded me of the Netflix series Daredevil and Punisher. Gritty and street level and sometimes brutal. All good series. And yes, Andor for Star Wars was in the same vein... great series.

On a WAG... I think Aaron Glenn is going to lose out on a "one more year to prove yourself on the ability to develop a top-notch defense"; and that we're going to lose Ben Johnson, most likely to the Commanders IMO.

Satisfied with the final episode of Fargo... Especially with the last confrontation between Ula Munch and the Lyon family.

One of the more successful arranged marriage that I can ever remember...
