Phil The Thrill Posted December 31, 2019 Posted December 31, 2019 Good for Eddie. Seemed like a real good guy. But when they gave him significant playing time, he didn’t really deliver. Maybe he can give Minnesota a boost in their DL rotation 3
Virgil Posted December 31, 2019 Posted December 31, 2019 Hate to lose him with the possible turnover next year at the end position 2
BubbaT Posted December 31, 2019 Posted December 31, 2019 I wish him good luck. He always played hard here though production wasn't real high.

wppete Posted December 31, 2019 Posted December 31, 2019 Good for Eddie! Hope He tears it up in Minn!

Jets signed all their PS players to futures today. after some research. I do think you can still poach them as technically they are not contracts until the new NFL year. So they are still technically UFAs at this point for Playoff teams Edited December 31, 2019 by MAJBobby

plenzmd1 Posted December 31, 2019 Posted December 31, 2019 Wonder how the pay works? Players get 17 checks, they already paid in full. Any one know?

I would appreciate it if you would post the actual link, and not an amp link, in the future, in order to give your posts more credibility. 1
hemma Posted December 31, 2019 Posted December 31, 2019 Curious if their GM called Beane for his insight before the transaction. This FO has a different feel about them & I wouldn't be surprised, given that it was out-of-conference, if Beane/McDermott put in a good word for him.
GG Posted December 31, 2019 Posted December 31, 2019 He had a great game vs Vikings this preseason. I'm sure that helped their scouting.
