You are in top form trolling in this thread.

I'd like to see it for one of our Alternative uniforms. The home crowd would go NUTS. And I love our new uniforms. But if we are going to go with an Alternative set for a game or two each season, I like this over the All-Reds, and even the 60s throwbacks.

Yeah, the GB and Pitt just seem like lazy takes. He's from Wisc, and his brother plays in Pitt. So what. We could get there by releasing Butler and Jefferson too. I wouldnt mind keeping Addison around. He was the best of the under-performing bunch.

Mike Shanahan's wife wouldn't come here either. I also seem to remember from my childhood in the 80s that Andre Reed's wife was very unhappy here and almost caused him to leave in Free Agency.

I've said the same thing. Cutting Jefferson and Butler saves us $12.5M Give JJ $9-10M and save $3M to spend on the OL.

lol, not really

Astros really brought a ton of bad sports karma to Houston. Texans fall apart. Rockets in shambles.

Considering he played something like 90%+ of the snaps for Houston last year, I absolutely agree. Less snaps would keep him fresher and up his production. And while I'm sure he'd like less snaps, I dont think he'd be happy being depth. He still wants to start, and then be on rotation. Just my guess.

We'll never allow him to vacation in Buffalo in peace!

Happily married to the hottie

Why would he? Assuming they re-sign Dupree, JJ doesnt even start there. And Ben is on his way out in a tough division, so they arent guaranteed contenders.

They cant. Not at his current contract hit and with only one year remaining, and everyone knowing they pretty much had to release him. Plus, that's a really dirty way to handle your star player and historically "good soldier".

One down.

Yes. Just over $5M this year, and $11M next year.

This thread is worthless without pics... She's his wife now, btw. Yeah, I'd rather have her and be in SF than alone in Buffalo. I dont blame him one bit.

I'm pretty sure the Carrs already know to stay far away from Houston. Will be very interesting if LV tries to trade him there. That family is on record (often) talking about how that mismanaged franchsie ruined his brother's career. The Carrs are the original Watson. Would be hilarious if TWO QBs forced their way off the team in one year.

Starting to smell a little cultish...

Speaking for myself, yeah, pretty much. Expensive and old. If we are going to pay top dollar, I'd rather it be for a guy coming out of his rookie contract (or close enough to it like Dupree). Hughes and Addison are 32 and 33, Miller is 31. We need to get much younger at the position so we can nail it down for the future.

Yeah that seems about right. I wanted to give 2 2nds for Ngakoue last year.

Cmon man. Cant start this thread and not provide a list, or even a single suggestion.

They definitely each bring different things to the table. The knock on Etienne is the mileage he has already accrued, and how much wear and tear has been put on his body. Best case would be both are available at 30, and we get our pick. I'd be happy with either in that case, knowing that Beane got the guy he truly wanted. But I also wont be upset if Etienne goes early and we still take Harris. I don't necessarily see that as a desperate move to fill a hole. Especially since RB isnt a huge need.

So you think employees should stand up for themselves and walk away from bad management in order to protect themselves and their reputation, and try to find work elsewhere. Especially when they are told they can have input on the HC hire, but than aren't given that opportunity. Another vote on Watson's side!

There is a HUGE difference between the 2015 Pegulas who were first-time NFL owners and complete outsiders to the league and in way over their head to start, and 2020 Cal McNair whose father started the team and has been around the NFL since at least 1999. Even with the extra decades of tenure and experience, he has managed is team to be in a far worse place than the Pegulas.

I let them work that out in camp. Bring in good competition and let the cream rise to the top. And I'm not really giving up on anyone since we have a 19-20 game schedule to think about now. RBs get banged up. Worth keeping a few around, especially when theyre all on rookie deals.

I absolutely agree. Dont get me wrong, I'm only focusing on the Harris pick here because it's the main topic of the thread. I'd say our Defensive Front 7 is the biggest area of weakness, followed by some OL needs. If it were completely up to me, we'd have the unicorn DE or LB waiting there for us at #30. Additionally, after watching us screw up so badly with wasting early 1st round picks on Lynch and Spiller, I have been in the camp that pounded the table to never draft another RB in the 1st ever again. Buuuuut... that was when we were always picking around #9-12, it's a little different at #30. And we have other ways and opportunities to address our needs besides the #30 draft pick (the rest of the draft, free agency, Beane's trades). So if Harris (or even Etienne) is there, I wouldn't be upset if we snagged him.
