Andrew Son

BS narrative. He never was

And how many wins is Sammy instead of Matthews worth?

No, he signed on to win the super bowl with Sammy, and everything changed with that one move... my god, this place

Ummm, my guess would be Matthews?

No, we can jump the ridiculous conclusions on this situation. Just not on the possible reasons for shipping Sammy out...

I see you are much more liberal with some "translations" than others. Link?...

I like to take that strategy a step further and whip it out at the first opportunity.

Do you listen to many coaches? Coach-speak is extremely prevalent. They all basically say the same things. The Rex's of the world are the exception

Penalties are a problem, but most of those were not actually penalties. I mean there was no contact on the blocks in the back. The call on Yarbo was terrible. The offensive PI on Logan? The refs were beyond awful.

We need to find a way to get Groy on the field

I thought LoRax looked good in space. Was encouraging. Jerry Hughes is fun to watch, so quick. It was also nice to see Gaines make a play. From a coaching perspective, they did a nice job with clock management.

Not really the backups on D. But yes, it's bad

No way I would do that. WR is WAY deeper than RB

No worries, just wanted to clarify

It was a joke.

So, 3 and a half quarters?

I don't see him ever coming back. Golf is a young mans game.

I don't see how that happens. Shady is clearly in the top 3 at RB right now, IMO. I'll definitely snag JWill late if I take shady

No Tyrod mention? He's a pretty good fantasy QB, especially in 4 point passing TD leagues

I think you are confused. Screens are thrown to dynamic athletes. Guys like Desean Jackson, not Hines Ward

Yes, Sammy makes every team in the league better. But team building in complex. This is partially where I see the real value of analytics (Not when to punt or whatever). Analyzing contracts, cap allocations, draft pick investments, etc., and comparing to successful championship teams. How do winning teams allocate their resources?

I'll try to find the stuff I've read on it. I was responding to impacting a game without getting the ball

At this point in his career, I'm not ready to say that Matthews can't do that. And I'm certainly not ready to say that Zay can't. I feel like the "terrible" trade crowd is arguing with themselves in this thread. Keep throwing out stats about how great Sammy is. Great. I agree, as do most people with two eyes. The real question is about team building. I don't think it's crazy not to think that paying an elite #1 receiver big money, if he would even sign beyond the franchise tag, is the best idea for a team in our situation. Save the cap space, and accumulate picks, and give us the flexibility to go after what really matter- a franchise QB. Yes, you can try to do both, but the having more picks and more cap space just increases your odds. Plus, you can't pay everyone. Lets go over the best receivers in the game, again- OBJ Julio Brown Green Hopkins Dez How many championships? You can do this exercise with greats going back to Megatron, Moss, and TO. Elite WR's are great to have, and yes, good players are better to have than bad players, but great receivers alone just don't move the needle that much. Especially when you have to decide how to spend your limited resources. And double especially on a run first team without an established franchise QB employing a WCO horizontal attack.

Jordan Matthews, and Boldin, are among the best blocking WR's in the game.

I'm sure the lockout will coincide with our championship window
