Same. Tyson is going to destroy him. Now, if you will excuse me, I plan to yet again go down another 1-hour Mike Tyson YouTube rabbit hole.

The guy that has always struck me as the most natural candidate to move to safety was Benford. But I think they really like him at corner.

Worth every penny. He is the MVP on defense.

I just don’t get it re Copeland. Poised to have a great year next year for us, IMO. He can’t be worried about his minutes.

Agreed. Poles isn’t going to pass on a 3rd and 4th round pick to do Fields a solid. The reality is he blew it— could have sent him to the eagles, and gambled, and then scrambled.

I was wondering what was going on. Seemed surprising they wouldn’t get an invitation. This makes more sense.

My thought is that these Achilles procedures and recoveries have really improved over the last 5 years. I remember reading something about even since like 2019, there has been dramatic improvements. That, plus the fact that Tre is more of a zone corner— I can see him getting back to being a productive starter. will he be an all-pro? Doubt it. But it wouldn’t surprise me to see him starting for a team here in the next 12-18 months.

I heard the eagles had offered more for fields than what they offered for Pickett and the bears turned them down! so then they trade him instead for a 6th?!

Very interesting. Appreciate the inside info. Might be that Copeland seems to be a little too free wheeling and probably doesn’t play within the offense as much as the staff likes?

I am happy we are looking at him. He wrote one of my favorite piano concertos.

it is a lot to invest in a guy who isn’t going to play. The drop off between having a top-5 backup and a top-20 one isn’t that much either. For example, the rams just signed Jimmy G to a 1-year deal. Seems like that is the better move.

Agreed. This is utterly pointless by the eagles. Maybe they just think he is worth that much as a backup QB…. Which he is not.

Copeland transferring would be a heart breaker. Everyone loves him. Just a fun player.

he was terrible. Their offensive scheme didn’t help. But he is basically going to be a middling backup.

Smart move by the Steelers. Pull the plug now; draft a guy like a Penix to groom Behind Wilson.

Don’t get me started on Tee! He burned me!

tell that to my fantasy teams! I think you guys are right that 2021 was the real injury plagued season. But even when he played the last few years, he always struck me as gimpy, battling through toe injuries and groin injuries and hamstring injuries. maybe it is just more exaggerated in my mind because I had him in fantasy for a few years, and felt I could never rely on him.

I think you sell him short. I bet he returns to a roster and returns to play at a really high level. This is an injury he can fully recover from.

good points. I love how he runs, but he hasn’t carried a full load yet.

Just hope he stays healthy. He has been snake bit.

Dodged a bullet. We can’t afford to take expensive flyers on any more old guys. Need to get young on defense.

This is HUGE!!! Cook and Ty are a perfect 1/2. Maybe get a cheap vet or late draft pick to round out the room.

Father of the Bride! It is one of the few things that still sticks with me from that movie! here is the clip, @BillsFanForever19

Tough way for the season to end in one of their poorest performances. Just sloppy.
