Bringing in Ebron to a group of Maxx Williams, Gilmore, Boyle, and the kid who got suspended. Are we going to allow Maxx to start and see what he can do or?????

I think we pretty much know what Maxx can do at this point, which isn't much. The guy looks super slow after those injuries, and especially that super secret knee surgery he had. He's turned into a decent blocker at least and has even gotten reps at FB, but I don't see a huge future for him.

And Gillmore is a FA transitioning to OL.

Gilmore is an offensive lineman. He gained 40 lbs and a fa

Just curious, what is everyone seeing in Crabtree that I am not? He has a lot of drops, which we already have on the team with Perriman. I have read comments on other sites that his attitude may not be the most desirable. He was just cut by the Raiders who were more than happy to sign Nelson. What am I missing?
2nd most tds in the league the last 3 yrs i read. Rz beast. We can get to the 20 ok but fail to score tds hence the amount of fgs tucker has to make. He can help change that

Exactly, what I said earlier. Being a red zone beast and all
 
As much as I like Crabtrees skillset and production I like what his former teammates said about him last season:

“My brother would always tell me stories about him when they were in San Francisco together and just the things that he could do,” Derek Carr said. “Now I’m seeing him do those same things. He’s not slowing down. Crab is a guy that genetically he’s going to play as long as he wants to play. It’s not going to slow down for him.”

And from Amari Cooper:

“I usually use my feet to get separation off the line of scrimmage or at the top of my route,” Cooper said. “But, one of the things I’ve learned from him is you can also get the same results using your hands.”

And don’t let the low-key swag fool you. Crabtree does get excited, when it comes to the Raiders offense.

“Crab is a gamer,” Cooper said. “He loves game time, he gets really hype. He’s always giving me motivation right before the game.”

The Campanaro situation irritates me. There's a player in there somewhere but for one reason or another it's just not transferring onto the field, I guess mainly injuries?

Camp had his most healthiest season of his career last year but it's not his fault The Ravens didn't use him alot on offense. There's not doubt in my mind that he can be a productive slot receiver but he just wan't used much on the field.

His cousin lives close to me and although he isn’t sure if he will be resigned he did tell me that they are staying in contact and it is a possibility he is back.

Jensen highest paid center in the league now. Signing a deal with the bucs 4yr / 42mil.

Crabtree was cut so he doesn’t count towards the comp picks right? Wonder if we’re going to get a nice comp pick for jensen

It will be at least 4th, most likely 3rd round.
I'm still at loss how Jensen can be highest paid C in the league. Looks like Bucs have fallen the next victim of the Ravens FA who played well in his contract year.

We signed John Brown so they'd offset unless another of our FAs gets signed by a team.

Bucs were stupid to give him that much of a contract.
