    He’s Baaaaaccccckkkk (Jaylen Mills Signs 1-Year Deal with Pats)

    "up to" usually means a lot of NLTBE incentives and roster bonuses, which would reduce his cap hit.

    He’s Baaaaaccccckkkk (Jaylen Mills Signs 1-Year Deal with Pats)

    so basically cut him, the re-signed him on a deal with less guaranteed, but a hypothetical higher ceiling if he hits a bunch of unlikely incentives would be my guess?

    NFL Free Agency Game Thread: Rumors! News! Uneducated Guesses!

    Looking at the last 5+ years in the picks (excluding the rookie because too early) around 14, you're looking at: pro-bowl caliber O-linemen (Wirfs, Lindstrom, Tunsil, Ragnow, Kelly, Slater), locked in starter level LTs (Miller), star pro-bowl defenders (Burns, Edmunds, James, Lawrence, Humphrey...

    NFL Free Agency Game Thread: Rumors! News! Uneducated Guesses!

    My point was more that Russ isn't a QB who limits his WRs, he was garbage the year before and his guys put up big numbers, if anything he's better for WR production than team success because he likes to throw deep and never uses the short routes (because he can't see them).

    NFL Free Agency Game Thread: Rumors! News! Uneducated Guesses!

    The same Russell Wilson who had 2 WRs go for more yards than Jeudy the year before, 2 go over 1000 yards in 2020, 1 in 2019 with a second over 900? Listen Russ was bad last year, but I don't think he is a defacto excuse for Jeudy. Last year was his best year, he has some interesting rate...

    NFL Free Agency Game Thread: Rumors! News! Uneducated Guesses!

    Cabot is very well sourced in the Browns org, and it's clear why they leaked to her, to put the pressure of "Browns are interested but have no first, DEN can get a deal done if they come off the demand for a 1st" I'm not as clear on Allbright, but I'm sure his source is a strategic leak, I was...

    2022-2023 General Celtics thread

    I expected a win because it was 5 in 7 days with a lot of travel so Kings were likely to have dead legs late, but this was still a strong performance across the board. Nice coaching adjustment too, picked up Sabonis much higher in the 2nd half, really changed the game.

    jeez, supposedly, at least pondered, possibly from.... so many qualifiers in that, and out of Denver.... tells me the offers have been low, I mean, why qualify both what the offer was and who it was from

    A Time to Worry: Celtics Postseason Concerns

    My problem is less with the late 4th than the whole rest of the 4th. They went big the whole quarter.

    A Time to Worry: Celtics Postseason Concerns

    White should have played in the 4th against Utah regardless of whether Brogdon played, because he's one of our best players. Joe's mistake is he saw Utah was big and said "I should match", which is dumb because Luke Kornet isn't good. So you had him standing there like 7 ft of wet toilet paper...

    How to improve the WR position

    I mean, that isn't at any point what I said... but. Yeah, if you pay a league average QB top $ you have very little chance at winning a title, and even less of competing over a longer period of time, as those teams always bleed talent as guys need new deals and you can't afford it all because of...

    How to improve the WR position

    Then they would have been around the playoffs but not real contenders through the end of the Smith deal, same as they were. A top QB is the most valuable thing in the sport, the 2nd most is a good QB on a rookie deal, if you don't have one you take shots until you do. Also, QBs who don't work...

    How to improve the WR position

    I mean, people keep saying things as if you can't start looking for your next QB until you get rid of your current one. The Giants are a great example of totally fucking up (even if it pans out) because they declined the 5th year option.... but didn't make any moves to get a new QB. Now if they...

    Jaylen Brown, Year 7

    off the top of my head, I know Lowe mentioned it on a pod a while back, Matt Moore has referred to it, couple others, all just in the context of "keep an eye on this down the road" it came up the most around the time of the Durant talks. I agree, if he gets the super-max he'll stay (at least a...

    Jaylen Brown, Year 7

    There has been a lot of chatter that he isn't thrilled about being seen as the number 2 over the last year or two from people who have good NBA insight. Nothing official and nothing sourced, but it's been out there a while. And he did a couple interviews in the last week talking about how...

    How to improve the WR position

    I think they're making a run at Hopkins, which is interesting, it implies they want to run for a title in the 2-3 cheap Mac years. I also think they were a victim of circumstance a bit, this is the worst WR class in years, they got the best one arguably. They got probably the best receiving TE...

    Jaylen Brown, Year 7

    sounds like: Depends if I get the super-max extension. But yeah... after this year they need to start thinking about whether they need to move Jaylen for value. Nothing about what he says or does off the court says anything other than "I want to be THE GUY for someone else to build my brand, I...

    How to improve the WR position

    It depends on how much better. We were discussing mediocre QBs, where year to year a cheap guy could well be better. I think you're looking at.... Expensive mediocre QB- basically no chance to win a SB, could make the playoffs... not set up to win if you draft a QB and hit. Cheap mediocre QB-...
