  1. Would be a fair contract. Also, Mathieu is better than Poyer. That’s a fair barometer of a contract.
  2. AJ only knows how to play against Austin Jackson. Embarrassed him in college and in the NFL. If he could only face him every week he’d be an all pro.
  3. It’s trading Wyatt Teller, which goes with picking Cody Ford. That one pick cost them a shot at all those receivers in that round. It also cost them Wyatt Teller when you really look at the long term effects.
  4. That’s gonna be a pick right there
  5. Honestly, I really liked what I saw from him when he was on the field. He just wasn’t on the field very much. I think he winds up being the Charles Johnson of the Carolina rotation. Not a game changing player, but a very solid all around player who will wind up in the 6-10 sack range every year.
  6. So do we get a comp pick? 🤷‍♂️
  7. The thing that I find most annoying about this craziness about holding is that Araiza is not the first K/P combo guy coming out of college. Those guys learned how to hold. He will too. I get being worried about hangtime and stuff like that. This discussion continues to make something out of nothing and there seems to be a new post on it every couple of days. Araiza has big hands, is super athletic and was a DB in HS. It is extremely unlikely that this will be an issue.
  8. Not me, but a lot of fans did and I understand why. I always thought he was terrible. Fans fall in love with tough guys with cool nicknames. At the end of the day, he is a backup player in the league. Which is fine.
  9. Chan and CJ Spiller and Brian Brohm, Levi Brown. Glory years baby
  10. He ran a 4.65 at the combine. Then ran an electronically tested 4.52 at his private workout day during covid. Devin Singletary ran 4.66. Duke Johnson ran a 4.59. Conclusion, the room is slow aside from Cook. Taiwan Jones ran 4.33.
  11. I put that play in my playbook for my varsity team. Counter power away (wham) from tight bunch with a jet motion to the playside is just nasty on so many levels. Kick from the guard and seal from the f back. Just nasty.
  12. Yeah I love Bates. I mean every time he has played, he did a great job. Athletic, young, former left tackle. I am excited to see what he does over an entire season. I am with you on Wydermyer too.
  13. Let’s return to this hill together mid fall! I totally agree.
  14. Trentative Edwards JP Loserman EJ “Slow eyes” Manuel Keith “Dogcrap” Ellison Jon “It’s not delivery it’s” DiGiorgio Kevin “Bathroom mat” Kolb “The Neckbeard” Kyle Orton Donte Whiffner Chis “Lunchpail” Kelsay Jonathan “Not so fast Freddie” Smith Bryant “Broken Dreams” Johnson Ko “I’m Famous” Simpson
  15. Yeah the guys that excel sometimes just have that track background and have done a lot of that straight line stuff. I like Wydermeyer’s potential a lot.
  16. I think they are going to look at cheap vets who get cut. Not much of an opportunity here for young UDFA guys to make the team. But there is a slight need for some veteran depth that may want to come along for the ride and compete.
  17. I would go with really good then. Before he got injured in that Colts game he was starting to get more touches than Devin. He runs hard and runs downhill and he is bigger, faster, stronger. To me he is the perfect complimentary back to Cook and is here for 2 more years. I do like Devin, I am simply saying don’t be surprised if he wrestles that spot back. He’s fresh and probably fully recovered from the ankle.
  18. More interior OL depth shook loose from Kansas City. Austin Reiter was Mitch Morse’s backup in KC and filled in admirably when Morse was hurt. He also started as KC’s center in 2019 when Morse was gone and won the SB. After starting for them for two years, KC let him go when they drafted Creed Humprey. Signed as a FA with NO and has bounced around since. Athletic dude who has won a SB. Guys like Reiter and Van Roten are relatively young vets with starting experience who can play all three interior positions (Reiter is more of center and Van Roten is more of a guard) and would be perfect functional depth. Both should come cheap.
  19. I would’t count out Zack Moss. I know he did nothing this year, but he took Devin’s job the year before and was the main guy before he got hurt. I mean he was really, really good. And he has two years left on his deal.
  20. In my world the starting line is: Dawkins-Saffold-Morse-Bates-Brown Locks: Doyle, Quessenberry Competition: Boettger (if healthy a lock), Mancz, Ford, all those other guys Tenuta etc. Van Roten is just a better version Mancz, plus he was drafted by Carolina and reportedly they pursued him hard in free agency before the Jets overpaid. I don’t have a problem with what they have done so far. But this is an obvious pick up for depth, and the presence of Mancz and Capra aren’t reasons to not pursue Van Roten. He was not available when Beane made those other signings.
  21. He has to be coming. Just released after the Herbig claim. You can do a lot worse in terms of guard depth. He can play center too. He was terrible for the Jets but who wasn’t? Bills were in on him heavy in FA a couple of years ago. Former Panther. Smart Ivy league good guy. Former college left tackle.
  22. Gotcha! That us a great question. I really wonder if there are times when we are truly straight man to man. I feel like it is mostly combo coverage.
  23. i agree with this. He has his moments. Way less hateable over there in Tampa.
  24. My stance is more about Dorsey and Brady than Kromer. The Felton/Boobie years was Rex Ryan ground and pound with Greg Roman. Just a totally different offense. Shula/Dorsey had Mike Tolbert in Carolina, but he really wasn't a FB. Joe Brady basically got rid of the fullback at LSU and Carolina. I think we are going see a mostly one back offense with the tight end playing the F off the line. Doesn't mean Gilliam does not make it, but it depends on if they want to keep more tight ends and whether or not they want to keep Moss/Duke Johnson. Gilliam's prowess on special teams is why he makes it. Regardless of what we saw last year, I don't think we are going see the fullback very much.
