This guy was supposed to be a raw "high ceiling" development pick anyway, but it does hurt he's missing the chance to get real game experience his rookie year. Hopefully next year he hits his stride. It is pretty rare to pick up a day 1 good starting EDGE in the 3rd round, so I didn't hate the pick in a vacuum (although I wanted a WR or Safety there).

He’s played some. He rotated into games earlier this year when Hairston was out.

This is a bummer, because even if he’s a JAG, he still had several years in the system and understood the defense. Anybody else we pick up will also be a JAG, but they won’t know the defense.

The Bengals are definitely going to march down the field for an opening drive TD. I’m sure the game day thread participants will be extremely measured and rational in their responses.

If he doesn’t report I don’t think we pay him anything.

I think the catch is that it would annoy Drew Rosenhaus (which is a plus in my book).

I'm pretty sure the Bills can put him on the "Reserve/Did Not Report" list, which makes it so he doesn't count as a roster spot and his cap doesn't count either.

Dak is so hard to gauge. He seems to play pretty well (consistently a top-10 QB every season), but his teams never get it done. This year it's mostly due to a terrible defense. I kind of feel bad for him (but then I think about how much money he makes and I don't feel so bad anymore).

Stick a fork in the Cowboys, they are done!

Ravens just got smoked by the Bengals and haven’t looked very good in their recent wins. I wouldn’t be penciling them in for any given spot. If Pitt splits their matchups I actually think they win the division. Easier schedule, and their backup QB is better.

Half the reason the Steelers are in their current predicament is that Big Ben hung on for way too long and didn’t let the Steelers draft his replacement and retool/rebuild. Pretty rich for him to be giving an opinion at this point.

The cap hit isn’t that bad, and he’s Lamar’s favorite target. Probably structured in a way to get out of it after year 2.

I agree that Allen is not trusting Keon right now, and basically not looking his way (which is obviously limiting).

So we have 4 guys here with routes that break 5 yards short of the sticks. Not sure I understand the play call on 3rd down. It’s like the goal is to get to 4th and short or something.

For better or worse, Allen will not give up on a 3rd down and punt by throwing it away, running out of bounds, or throwing well short of the sticks. Live to fight another day is not in his vocabulary.
