20+?

A few. I believe Cover 1 did a segment on him as a possible FA target. How many poster saw that…. Probably not as many as will comment on this post.

If you sign the guy it’s for the future. You get him cheap for 2-3 years and let him rehab this year.

It might. Wilson grew up idolizing the guy. 🤷‍♂️

He’s been slammed around by some of those Bears and Viking defenses. The media is probably what will make or break him. NYC reporters aren’t going to throw softball questions.

Suppose we could root for a pair of 1sts to the Packers and Milano to railroad ARod like his name’s Mike White.

Yup. Plus if he gets fed up and retires post June 1 the cap hit gets spread out too. If you want a good laugh hit up a Jets message board. I swear half of the jets fans hate him already. 😂

The full dream scenario is the packers pull out post June 1 after the insults and file an evidence backed tampering charge. Jets lose out on Rodgers, Lamar, and still lose a 1st round pick.

IIRC, beats the pulling Olinemen to the gap.

You’re probably correct. Although, it could be if they’re looking at him as late season depth this upcoming season and a starter the year after. The money would have to work, but injuries are one of the few ways to get top talent at a low price.

Collins torn his ACL and MCL late in the season. It’s entirely possible he’s not ready by training camp.

IIRC, Collins can also bump inside to guard if Brown beats him out at RT or if Morse gets injured and Bates needs to move to center.

Hopefully Kyle Allen can go et in JA17’s ear immediately when he drifts away from the mechanics he works on with Palmer. That might be worth his salary without a snap.

Rodgers sat for three years (05’-07’) like Jordan Love, not five. As for HOF QBs, there were several others competing against Favre and Rodgers in the NFC during that timeframe. Favre lost to Aikman’s Cowboys three times before getting to a SB. Lost to Elway in his second SB. He then lost to Steve Young, Kurt Warner, Vick, McNabb, Eli Manning, etc. Rodgers is a bit more interesting as he didn’t face the same number of HOF QBs. Still lost to Warner and Brady. Lost to the 49ers an inordinate amount of times to sandwich his career. He’s had plenty of talent around him though. Even the past few years he’s been playing with multiple probowlers and all-pros on both sides of the ball. Heck Micah Hyde was stuck behind multiple pro bowlers for the start of his career. There have been some freakish plays mixed in that rival our own “13 seconds”. Most notably the onside kick against Wilson’s Seahawks and the “Fail Mary” with replacement refs that robbed GB of home field advantage. Having a pro bowl DT retire mid career, pro bowl CB and all pro safety retire from injuries mid Super Bowl window also screwed that team. Most folks don’t remember how good some of those Packers teams were. For example, that Super Bowl team had a HOF safety, 3x all pro safety, and two pro bowl corners one of which was rounding into a top 5 CB in Sam Shields. Winning Super Bowls is difficult. We’ve all had our expectations slanted by the Patriots success and most recently Mahomes/Reid and the Chiefs. McCarthy certainly screwed the pooch with game management several years against other playoff coaches, but he was/is no Dick Jauron.

They are. Once again…. If you have a link to any clinical research performed In the USA between the Nixon and Bush II presidencies feel free to post it.

If you have more information than me feel free to share with the group. Lord knows I’m not an expert on testing drugs. “Starting in 1966, several states banned their use. In 1968 LSD was outlawed nationwide, and in 1970 Congress passed the Controlled Substances Act, classifying that drug and psilocybin, along with several others, as having a high potential for abuse and no accepted medical use.” https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/johns-hopkins-scientists-give-psychedelics-the-serious-treatment/

Probably didn’t help that no one was allowed to research any of this for decades lest their patients brains get cracked into a hot skillet like and egg. 🤪

There are some studies that show increases in neuroplasticity with treatments of psychedelics. It’s very early in the research stage thanks to the schedule 1 legality issues. There are some notable examples of former fighters, solders, etc using psychedelics to help cure depression, ptsd, and other problems which are often symptoms of CTE. I’d have to look for more information, but there’s a bunch of literature one can dig through.

In related news…. New Balance is exited to be extending their sponsorship of Toma, and will be celebrating the extension with a hybrid lawn mowing and golfing training shoe to be released on Fathers Day 2024.

Yup. Holcomb called plays last year as interim DC in Carolina, and before that as DC in Arizona

I hope he’s not sick or dealing with a tragedy.

If Benford is transitioning to safety then getting a FA to start for at least the beginning of the year is a good idea. It’s a position in flux due to Poyer (FA), along with Hyde and Hamlin’s injuries. I’d almost want to see a vet like Adrian Amos brought in on a 2-3 year deal to cover a Benford transition and possible injury to Hyde who may be gone after this upcoming season.

Excellent opportunity for Webb. He’s certainly put in enough work to earn a reputation around the league to get this job. Perhaps he’ll be ready for an OC promotion when Dorsey/Brady move on.

Richard Sherman and Roquan Smith did it, but there are a couple notable differences. Neither are QBs, and they both scored much higher on the wonderlic. Sherman graduated from Stanford. Roquan Smith majored in economics and has a track record of shrewd contract manipulation going back to national signing day.
