Bullying? LOL. It's football fans giving each other the business.

What's wrong with that.

The only positive is Beane has $900k diverted to the 2025 cap. The $900k covers a Shavers salary of $799k. I have to believe the contract was structured exactly for a scenario like that. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/25275/marquez-valdes-scantling/contract/cap

The thing about Shavers is he played fairly well last summer too. He could be a real steal playing on a Reserve/Futures contract. Let's all hope he can be a plus for the team.

I see MVS on the bubble with Claypool and Hamler. One of those vets make it. I don't see Coleman (a rookie), Shavers (UDFA) and another UDFAs making the roster. Too early to see who is ahead.

That's true with every sport. The 1980s players were the best athletes in the country at the time. High school baseball teams today could beat the 1899 Brooklyn Dodgers. The 2 eras cannot be realistically compared.

I'm editing my own post. MVS is currently on the bubble.

Funny, I don't remember grass at the Rockpile.

It's sounding like he's on the bubble and it's floating toward the rose bushes.

Way too early for any worrying. I guess with the bit of struggling with McGovern's snaps I would like to see him get more C snaps than G, but that's just me being overly cautious.

I've read all the stuff posted here. Seems he has taken 3rd string C snaps and 2nd string G snaps. Have not heard anything about good or bad.

I love hearing about Josh on rollouts and bootlegs. Have seen a little from Daboll but did not see that from Dorsey at all. It seems to me a natural thing to do with Josh. A few years ago, Daboll had Josh do some naked bootlegs to the left and they worked very well.

Best way for Hardy to make the team is as a returner and depth Slot CB. Looks like it will be a battle with Cam Lewis for that spot.

In hindsight he should of went under the knife right after the injury.

Dorian Williams and Nick Morrow. Don't worry.

I am so hoping Knox can stay healthy all year. If he does, I think Dalton and him are going to cause a lot of headaches for the opposing DCs.

I think it was because MVS apparently is no good at STs.

Give the kid some snaps with Josh when the pads come on.

I don't see any "surprise" cuts worth mentioning. Will there be one or two new guys taking some depth spots, yes there is a chance. I'll wait until camp and the preseason games are done to see if there truly is a DHC. Browning over Martin is probable. Collins getting cut for a younger guy would not be surprising. I see both Hollins and MVS making the team and the fight will be for WR6 with a WR7 going on the PS to start the season, (like last year). Cam Lewis cut might happen, but if it does it will be because Hardy (or someone else) is looking too good and excelling on ST. The battles are really for the top PS spots.

No, but if someone not on ignore replies to them than the original post is shown. I quickly move on not reading the reply. I'm a strong proponent of not feeding the trolls for that reason!

I'll just leave it at this. If Josh signed for $43M in 2021 and the cap went up $10M instead of down $15M his % of cap would of been 20.5% instead of 23.5%. That's all I'm trying to say. The math doesn't lie.

I think you are missing my point. You quoted Allen in the 23% and others around 20%, that's the "difference" I'm talking about. GMs owners and agents also knew that the Covid was just a "glitch" in the cap increases.

As is my migration of all 3 onto my "ignore" list. Why people voluntarily listen to this stuff is mind-boggling.

I agree with your premise about the % of cap at signing and the dollar cost of the contract. One thing that is different is Josh Allen signed during the cap decrease due to the Covid issues in the NFL. If the cap went up instead of down his % would be a good bit lower at signing. The other thing that makes Josh's contract better is the 6-year length instead of the "now normal" 5 year for franchise QBs. For those wondering, Tua's 4-year contract is no doubt due to his health risks.
