...why not?....said to still have all of his NFL buckos......no soup kitchens on the horizon......getting out now healthy makes perfect sense.... Rob Gronkowski, who hasn’t touched a dime of his NFL money, shares the #1 piece of advice he gives his teammates Published Tue, Jan 29 2019 • 1:02 PM EST • Updated Thu, Jan 31 2019 • 10:58 AM EST Courtney Connley https://www.cnbc.com/2018/10/12/rob-gronkowski-shares-the-money-advice-he-gives-his-nfl-teammates.html

....yup...long LONG way to go......still have FA $$$ in the cookie jar was well as 10 picks....

...not 100% sure, but I thought there were some in season ST personnel changes that may have affected him (others will know much better)...but it does appear McBeane & Company are committed to addressing ST personnel along with a new ST Coach.......hopefully better days are ahead..........

....can't find anything regarding other visits....seems to only be Bflo......maybe McBeane only offered him a "one year prove it deal" while he hopefully gets an invite for something longer term....just a speculative guess....

...any idea why he was a holdover through 3 regimes?..........

...LOL...."AB meet our Mr. Edmunds"........

...a poster elsewhere offered up the Titans scheme change in 2018 as a possible reason the kid struggled......sound familiar??...... ✔@MikeGarafolo "A small step back was expected, considering the Titans implemented a new blocking scheme in 2018. But I think they took enough of a step back that it’s fair to question offensive line coach Keith Carter." "Typically, I’d say give Carter another year. There’s no reason to make a snap decision, especially after a transition year. "

....PERFECT analogy.......

...will be interesting to see how the new OL Coach evaluates and meshes talent.....hopefully flexible regarding scheme to play to personnel strengths.......we need a Mouse McNally tinkerer.....

...um....well...er...think I've been busted...kid does have some talent and perhaps with a better supporting cast he can progress quicker to the final 53..........

...LMAO...even Waste Management refused to pick this garbage up.....Chuckie to the rescue.........

...10,000 sq feet of emptiness??...........

...think perhaps you meant Spain......here's what I posted in another thread about him...eerily all quiet on the Spain front............ .can't find where else he has visited.......wonder how accurate this PFF assessment is and whether it is an impediment...... .."After earning a career-high 84.2 overall grade in 2016, Tennessee Titans guard Quinton Spain has struggled to return to such form. His run-blocking grade has fallen from 80.8 in 2016 to 57.3 in 2018. ".. .."Spain’s pass-blocking grade has been 75.6 or higher all four years of his career; it’s his run blocking that has been up and down. He needs to get back to where he was in 2016 as a run blocker to blossom in the NFL again."...

...agree 'Crispy....no need to rush him.......needs more work to develop...........

...good call Doc......crazy to eliminate the run dynamic from Allen's arsenal........just need to reduce it a bit, becoming more selective and relying on his supporting cast......rather have him on the field for 10 years as our franchise quy versus on a gurney as a headhunter target...........

...certainly does...was meant as sarcasm for the ongoing Josh naysayers.........despite the disdain for the pick from "expert" urinalists and posting pundits, interesting to see how ex-NFL QB's, REGARDLESS of their success level in the NFL are high on Allen like Simms, Palmer, Dilfer, etc....

....with a year under his belt and what is shaping up to be a far superior supporting cast (BEFORE 10 picks), he'll continue to improve IMO....stay tuned....

....like an Earl Scheib paint job...........

....CERTAINLY has carved out one helluva niche, hasn't he?.........

...LOL...I was actually being sarcastic about Benjabum, but failed.....

...it's been in place for 10 years...nothing new........

...Sullivan should just stick to writing obituaries...........

...so Crosman was a victim then?......

..be careful...Simms is on board with Josh..........
