You shouldve bought into Apple and Microsoft in 1990! (See how helpful your comment is with the hindsight of knowing about an injury that came after the contract? People act like we gave the dude $100M with Derrick Rose's knees)

You know how we enjoy seeing him on there because hes candid and refreshing? Seems like a cool hang? Players and other agents see the same thing, and makes him look great to do business with. Its basically an unpaid advertisement.... not some self-validation attention seeking. You dont get to be a GM by not being on top of your work. Dude made sure he addressed anything needing addressing before a 15-30 minute appearance. Any FA/player agent hes working with was aware ahead of time he had a quick meeting..... somebody else was delegated to handle non-urgent matters for 15minutes. Rest assured if something unforeseen pops up in, again during a 15-30 minute window, his phone is on his desk, his assistant is standing there to give him the Bat Signal, should something arise. Same energy as "Dude did X-Player go to an MLB game during his bye week?!?! Shouldn't he be out catching and throwing balls" CHHHHHHHIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL. This is a part of the job and directly work related

Who else they predicting?

G2 be honest, Chargers havent very much been worth watching. In seeing his 40 time at 4.51, and some less than awe inspiring stats. Im a basket half full kinda guy, and im not seeing total doom n gloom on the thread yet.... anybody able to tell me why I should get excited other than being young

Almost certain they ship bitchens out. Im one to say i don't mind some diva for high end performance but the dude is unbearable

Who's our 5? -dareus drag race -that 3rd rd DT had a gun charge, forget his name -von miller Who are the other 2? Possible that dareus is before the cutoff, so might be one more Oliver got accussed of dwi but was found to not be drunk or whatever. So that proli counts as an arrest

You hope its not true that we trade a #30 overall for a WR in his prime that absolutely terrorizes opposing defenses for years, solidifying us as a contender every year afterwards? LOL Go look at how many first rd grades are out there for 2025 draft. Go look at all the guys being mocked to us at #30. Which one is more likely to close the 3point gap we lost by in the AFCCG this past season?

"30 points a game", much like the good to great defenses we've had, is a regular season analysis. 27 vs the Ravens 29 vs the Chiefs. 33 was the magic number for the AFCCG. Mahomes and Reid continually outcoach opposing DC's, and stacked defenses. If you forget the recency bias of the SB, Mahomes has won the SB ~50% of his seasons. It doesn't matter what studs you put out there on defense, theyre going to outscheme you, and limit your defenses star players. Trying to copy Phillys defensive mold would take us throwing everything out, and starting all over again... you can put an All-Pro player at each level of the defense and they'll find a way to scheme that guy out. We are never outscheming them like that, and we don't have the resources to implement a DL like PHI has, and especially not at the same time as we're filling out the back of our defense to PHI's caliber. We're miles away. On the offensive side of the ball, we had a chance to put that game away. Our defense was -- THE OFFENSE. Control the ball, score at a high clip, and TD's. The offense got bogged down one too many times. Chiefs were able to put minimum resources to our outside WR's, and sell out to stop the run, protect middle of field against our TE's/Slot. Adding one bonafide outside threat ( A.Cooper hurt and thrown into the grind mid-season, without TC or a chance to develop chemistry, does not count) into the equation, helps overload Spags' defense and completely alters their defensive gameplan... that game isn't coming down to a 4th and inches (was a 1st on 3rd down anyways). We're instantly a better balanced team. We sustain more drives, or cap them off with 7's instead of 3's. Mahomes is forced to play from behind, and unable to make a mistake, or settle for 3. Bills get to play more loose, take shots deep that hit. Or aren't the end of the world to waste a down on, if the defense cant crowd the line/middle of field. We can stress a defense with; the run, short throws, medium throws. There is zero threat deep, or to the outside of the field. TL:DR 1 single player, a legit #1 WR takes the offense over the top. Its the only position group on offense where we have no true weapon. VS Rebuilding an ENTIRE DL & SECONDARY. ^^forget what we've done in the regular season, it doesn't matter. We had/have a potential 1 player solution to our PLAYOFF problem. If it's not DK, then package some of our 10(!!! 10 !!!) picks in the draft/trade market to go make it happen. We have the best QB in the league, and he has 1 WR, who's in the slot

How the heck do you use Spotrac? LOL I went to look at Milano after seeing this. It said possible out is 2026 at $11m dead cap, but it didn't say how much thatd save us. I too feel this is creeping in. Love the player, hate the injuries. Cant afford to pay two guys the way they do, and have them both getting banged up.... they're NFL LB's, theyre gunna take a beating, games happen here and there, but Milano has gone from 2-3 games a year to starting or finishing the year on IR.... we can't allocate those resources to him anymore. Maybe a reworked deal could be had that helps us out? He seems reasonable

Saw it compared to Peyton's Omaha productions, and hoping thats true. No rush, but hope Josh sticks around the sport when hes all done. Super funny and likeable, would make a great cameo in movies too. Kinda like Roger Clemens in Dumb & Dumber, or Bill Romanowski in Benchwarmers. Dude likes his slapstick goofy comedies, and his fiance is in the industry, literally wouldnt surprise me at all

9 years $82million earned. Good for him and #GoPack ! Nice move for the Bears, the Lions (and us) have got their turn as of late. Hoping Ben Johnson can help turn them around, this is a good start. I hate Chicago, but those fans deserve it

Id much rather he adjust his approach then trade out of the type of picks we need. Were an extremely solid team top to bottom, we dont need more day 2 and 3 guys to "exceed expectations", we need bonafide stand out stars. Take TRUE BPA minus QB. His trading up hasnt worked out the best overall, but I like the aggressiveness, as its the only way to check both boxes of BPA & NEED at same time. Just use more caution to not over reach. I trust Beane to make adjustments, hes a top GM in this league whos finally getting some seasoning through experience. Play with fine tune knobs a bit

Dude also had nearly a perfect score on the RAS (relative athletic scalwe). I follow that guy on Twitter.... he makes no claims to high rated players being the best or anything, its one component needed to excel in the league... but Spencer Brown was had in the 3rd and had a perfect 10.0, not something many players get. Interesting stuff, and Beane does have a tendancy to take genetic freaks

I can't tell if this is good or bad LOL it looks like a lot, but I know those sites are very comprehensive in listing injuries. Is this good bad or meh?

Tag n trade seems likely. Lame, we just went from 1% chance to .25%

Devils advocate a bit here: Youre on the Raiders. Unserious franchise, bad coach, bad owner, bad QB. You're money driven, and your team is TRAAAASH with nothing to play for quickly. I want the ball, cause Im a WR, but also cause last payday. I could see a poor attitude like "5-12 or 4-13; who cares, gimme the ball at least"

Boos on the road are cheers at home. Maybe we'll shower him with Gabriels Gate wings ?

I tended to agree off the top of my head, and still do mostly..... but I fell victim to the old & (moistly expensive) WR's hype- and lumped him in with Hopkins, Beckham, Cupp, even Amari . He did a lot more with Jets in 11 games than I realized. Id still proceed with major caution but:

Would they trade him for next to nothing just to keep him away from us or AFCE? It might not be that easy for Jets Although, he does NOT HAVE a no trade clause, he flexed his muscle into being traded to Jets, so I'm assuming he'll have leverage on where he goes.

I get theyre buddies, but after last season why the heccc would he follow Aaron? I doubt hes ever been accused of being a MENSA member, but Rodgers missed him a ton. Jets: 11games // 67 rec on 114 targets // 58% Compl% // 854 yds // 7 td's (OK this last one jumped out after seeing it) Cant remember and too dumb to read Spotrac: Did the Jets give him a new deal or did the Jets inherit this only???

Dang it, this sucks. This is the version of Hard Knocks ive been pining for the most, and it delivered. Schoen is a walking duck, but absolutely loved seeing inside a front office. With that said Belichek and an inside look at a hopeful UNC college team, is one helluva consolation prize! Cant freakin wait 100% this. Theres no way he went to them. Dude proli hung up on them..... then AD got wind of it and told him its happening no matter what. Would be awesome to see a local college team of mine shoot up through the ranks

What part of 2023 Diggs (or even 2022) is supposed to make us believe he was any different than his 2024 version? Dude was disgruntled, phoning it in, and old. Half season of that version of Diggs is enough to convince any of us that Brady has no use for a true #1 WR? That we're voluntarily choosing to be run first versus stacked boxes, we prefer to spread the ball around in middle of field where it is heavily guarded and cramped because the defense is only having to commit the most bare minimum resources into protecting outside the hashes. Brady wants to run a balanced offense, with a bottom of the barrel outside attack. I don't see it.

LOL were all thinking it, but i have a better chance Scarlett Johannson knocks at my door begging for a place to stay tonight lol if somehow Carter made it to even like #8 that teams phone would explodeeeeeee

Give it to Brian Cushing and Bill Romanowski. Everyone gets free peptides and designer oils!!!

"Soon to be 30" - Garrett will be 29 until the very end of the season. Crosby turns 28 during preseason. Also, DE's have shown to age gracefully and have longevity. 30 isnt some magic witchcraft number. -"1st round pick". that first rd pick is #30, and likely will not have any 1st rd grades left. Its not a bad pick to have, but were talking about a HOF with several prime years left, who doesnt miss time really. At a position of need/premium position. Elite DE's are almost like QB's now. Good luck getting one thats elite in FA. Good luck finding a HOF DE at #30. I slightly prefer Crosby, but would defecate from my urinary tract if we landed either
