can't overload too much from this year to next year due to the cap. I don't know the percentage increase from this year to next year they are allowing, but the league had put some rules in place. Now maybe that has been changed since the CBA was approved. That I'm unsure about.

Think that was pre-new CBA to eliminate the possibility of teams pushing all their cap spend into an uncapped year. Don't know the details for sure, but wouldn't think that'd be an issue now.

I think that's correct, but don't know the details since the CBA was approved either.

You say that like EDC won't bring in his goons on some Thief's Theme by Nas type of shit.


More like YOUR excitement. The JoeyFlex meltdown thread needs to be re-energized!

Oh it’s coming.

Eric is gonna take a player who I actually like, but he’s gonna be like 2nd on my board instead of first, and I’m gonna lose my fucking shit
 
Admittedly I’m a hater, but regardless I really don’t understand this perceived market for brady. Watching him play last year it would seem to me no one would want to sign him.

only if they can read the way they should - we saw how bad we were with athletic guys who didnt know what they were doing last season - we brought in josh bynes who is not athletic at all and it massively changed the defence just because a guy at Mike knew what he was doing and made good reads

as cool as it is to salivate over the athletic gifts of someone like murray the athleticism doesnt matter if he isnt going to make good reads - would rather have basically any of the other day 1 and 2 touted off ball LBs in this draft class

Give me queen, that dudes trigger is instant. Great fit here.

honestly the only downsides I see are occasionally suspect tackling, he often is just like a half yard shy in zone, and when he doesn’t get to blast blockers violently he struggles to get off blocks. Seems to be ultimate upside since our scheme covers his weaknesses and he’s also not gonna be a liability in terms of angles or reads at the POA

yeah im watching the saints game right now and seeing really active hands and good fight - constantly working to maintain control with his hands especially in the running game

doesnt offer a huge amount in the passing game - he's constantly working to win position but he doesn't win outright often against the pass because he doesnt get himself free - can be caught leaning with his length and get nullified going straight down the middle if he doesnt get dominant hand position early in the down

but really strong at the point of attack in the running game and controls the OL well

ha ! I went right to the saints as well. tends to get his hands off first with great inside position. Im watching vs. us and he's actually giving Stanley the business a little....whixh sounds ridiculous given how lopsided the game but
 
I know most are not big names, but still surprised we haven't seen any of our own get plucked today. I saw one tweet about interest across the league in Peanut, but nothing beyond that. Nothing on Jimmy or Pierce.
