Never had em, but I'm gonna be honest, now I wanna try em. I could use a night waking up in my neighbors yard after **** punching my wife...

Lol that dude has 133 followers and an unverified account... it's garbage. Throw something at the wall and see what sticks.

Roscoe's future....

Welp I think it's been well covered... and covered.... and covered again by posters saying the same, correct, thing about it... So to be different, here's a picture of a monkey

you still think we'll be using paper.... you're soooooooo 20th century!

I find this shocking you must be writing a letter a minute because I can't imagine you thinking fast enough for this to be a problem... I wonder if in 100 years when writing is entirely done, will there be a great debate about changing key boards and forcing people to re-learn just like the debates that have been had about Metric versus the English system of measurement... which we are still the only country to still use, despite having officially "converted to metric" for 30 years...

I hear he was on the Massapequa Semi-Pro Curling "rock hurlers"...

I think your dentures slipped.... You mean young?

They no longer teach penmenship or anything like that in schools... 33

Anyone else notice when they sit down to hand write a few notes, that they can type for hours without a problem, but 5 minutes into a note and your hand feels like it's about to fall off?

or you can scroll up and save me the time ? I agree, however I could see them keeping him to help block in the run game 100% due to the injuries we currently have at TE. I figured 4 TEs and 4 RBs no FB... But with the TE issues, I could see Kroft being moved to the PUP or IR designated to return after preseason. If you lose Kroft and you have Knox banged up that puts you in a tough spot at TE, so maybe you keep a FB JUST IN CASE as an extra blocker if they struggle running the ball. I may be over thinking it though. Also DiMarco is big on special teams and you know how much McDermott loves his special teamers haha

yeah I am aware, I was taking it in a different direction...

Yeah he'd be a good Mayhem... "I'm stone hands Jones... Its the 4th Quarter, 5 seconds left and you're down by 4. Your team has the ball at the 5 yard line... You could've had a better receiver but instead chose a cut rate player like me... You throw me the ball expecting a Touchdown and celebration.... instead I ripe out your heart and end you playoff hopes with a bobble and drop as time expires. so get Allstate and prevent Mayhem like me."

I'd be more disappointed if he didn't rejoin the Raiders.... now we can enjoy more issues and complaining and him torpedoing that franchise... Can't wait for him to have just 1 catch in week 1 and call our Carr.

They Made the decision not to pick up his option after the draft right when Beane was coming in and Whaley was being shown the door. I wonder if the decision would've been the same if Beane had more time in the front office before he had to make the decision. Regardless they decided not to pick up the option on a guy who had been hurt often, and they were in the process of revamping a roster. Then when they got to Camp they saw an opportunity to move Sammy to get draft assets to help ensure they could get their QB. They obviously valued that above all else... and I don't blame them. Regardless of if they'd picked up Sammy's option or not I think he would've been traded so they could add that 2nd and Gaines, which allowed them to feel comfortable trading away Darby for a 3rd and Matthews. That 2nd helped them get Allen, and that 3rd helped them get Edmunds... Would you rather have Allen and Edmunds, or just Allen... the reason I put it that way, is if we didn't have a 2 seconds, we would've needed to give up our second 1st rounder to get Allen. And we wouldn't have had the extra third we used to go up for Edmunds either.

Thanks man, and I see what you're saying. Part of my response is more than just for the guy I'm arguing against, it's also for the other people reading his post and maybe not having all the information to know why the argument he's putting up is inaccurate. So Hopefully I can change his mind, but if not, at the very least, I've put the accurate information out there to help other people come to their own conclusion with all the facts and figures. Haha thanks buddy, these are fun analyses to run... When you look at our contracts versus those of the Jets and the Browns, you can see our GM has a clear road map towards keeping our young talent, and the Jets and Browns are looking for splashes versus "Building"... in a few years it's going to be VERY hard for them to keep their guys as those contracts are still big and hard to get out of, but our guys are all being re-signed because the bulk of the cap hits for our higher paid players are front loaded and the deals are easy to get out of.

As I've said in my other replies to people who've asked me this, yes that is correct... I have gone into more detail in those but I'm not retyping the same thing over and over.

Good! Makes playing them week 1 look that much more satisfying!

Did you even bother to read the rest of my post that you cut off? Because it entirely disproves your inaccurate statements... I don't think you understand how the Salary cap or dead cap works... Dead cap hits are the remainder of guaranteed money... He got $11M at signing (money which has already been paid and needs to be accounted for over the 4 years of the deal at $2.75M per year), and $9.4M across the first 2 years of the deal. Add up $11 + 9.4 and you get how much? OHHHH right $20.4... the exact same as his dead cap hit if we cut him this year. His pro rated bonus this year is $2.75 (same as every other year) + his $7.4M guaranteed Salary ... that equals $10.15M So in 2020 if we cut him you take $10.15 and subtract it from the TOTAL GUARANTEED MONEY which is $20.4, not your made up number... and you get..... DRUM ROLL $10.25... the exact number I already stated. His "Cap Hit" in 2020 would be $11.625M, so his dead cap would be $1.375 M LESS than if we kept him on the roster... you just subtract the dead cap of $10.25 from the roster hit if he were on the team of $11.625. So there would be savings by year 2 if we needed to cut him... it's not ideal that we wear the dead cap of $10M but at least we aren't handcuffed to him forever since we can get out from under the deal in year 2. The savings are even better in years 3 and beyond. If you're comparing that to the Dareus deal, you may want to get your facts straight... Dareus signed a 6 year $108M deal in 2015. In that deal he was guaranteed $65M PLUS a $25M Signing Bonus, so you're talking about $90M that needed to be accounted for by the cap. He was traded in 2017, the 3rd year of that deal. He was 3 years in and the dead cap was $10.66 in 2017 and $14.2M in 2018 making a total of $24.86... his dead cap 3 years in was still more than the total guarantees given to Morse. On the flip side, if we cut Morse in the second year of his deal we will already realize cap savings of $1.375, and in the 3rd year we'd be saving $4.875M in cap and wear just a cap hit of $5.5M, all of which is the remainder of the unaccounted for bonus money. The reason the deal isn't a massive boondoggle disaster is because of the structure Beane uses with his contracts. He makes them so that they are nice upfront money for the player to give them an incentive to sign on the bottom line, with most of that money in the first year or two. THEN After that first year, the team can opt out without a big cap hit. Here's another example... the Trent Murphy Contract: Year Age Base Salary Prorated Bonus Roster Bonus Per Game Roster Bonus Workout Bonus Other Bonus Guaranteed Salary Cap Number Cap % Dead Money & Cap Savings Cut (pre-June 1)Cut (post-June 1)Trade (pre-June 1)Trade (post-June 1)RestructureExtension Total $14,525,000 $5,250,000 $1,000,000 $1,500,000 $300,000 $150,000 $5,625,000 $22,318,750 2018 28 $2,625,000 $1,750,000 $0 $500,000 $100,000 $0 $2,625,000 $4,662,500 2.6% 2019 ? 29 $5,800,000 $1,750,000 $500,000 $500,000 $100,000 $150,000 $3,000,000 $8,706,250 4.6% $6,500,000 $2,206,250 2020 ? 30 $6,100,000 $1,750,000 $500,000 $500,000 $100,000 $0 $0 $8,950,000 4.5% $1,750,000 $7,200,000 So he signed in 2018 and got a signing bonus of $5.25M and $5.625M Guaranteed Salary over the life of the 3 year deal with all of it in the first 2 years. So had we cut him in 2018 we would've had to account for the bonus plus the guarantees, so the cap hit would've been $10.875M, his cap number on the other hand was $4.6625M, so we would've had to use up additional cap space to cut him. HOWEVER the reason this deal is a perfectly constructed "Prove it" deal where if they wanted out in 2019, his Cap hit is $8.7M-ish they could've cut him and only worn a dead cap hit of $6.50M and SAVED $2.2M+ for this year. In year 3, 2020, his cap hit is $8.95M, however he has $0 in Guaranteed Salary, and the only money remaining from his Signing Bonus is $1.750. So the dead cap to cut him would only be $1.75M and we'd SAVE $7.2M against the cap. So if he's good we keep him on a good contract for a pass rusher in 2020, if he sucks, we cut him and wear a very minimal cap hit. And at the end of the day the player is happy because he earned good money over the life of the "Prove it" Deal.

Oh I entirely agree, I am just saying I have my doubts about the Phins as an organization right now... we'll see how things shape up but they seem a bit ass backwards still... not as bad as teams like Houston the Jests, or Booz-azona... but still not quite on the rails.

If the best QB in history is coming out and saying "It sucks but I'll deal with it" then AB absolutely looks like a "Damn Fool" acting like he should have more pull than the Tom Bradys of the world...

Good thing the Dolphins have it all together...... ?
