I have zero respect for BB.

To each their own.

How 'bout them Rams.

They retooled a bit on the O-line I think and I vaguely recall them signing a WR to replace Britt who signed with...someone else.

Could be worse. with better Oline play you might already be better off then last year.

E-a-g-l-e-s eagles woooo :d

E-a-g-l-e-s eagles woooo :d

Eagles been making moves, that's for sure. Signed Alshon Jefferey, Torrey Smith, errr some O-lineman I think. Definitely helped your offense. With a good draft you could really go places.

Do you think you caught up with the Cowboys and Giants?

One of, if not THE best corner in the Draft. Aiming high.

You guys definitely need Corner help though. Letting what'shisface go to the Dolphins didn't hurt much (except financially) last year, but definitely need at least one good corner to take care of the Odell's and Dez's in the NFC East.

This draft is soooo deep at corner though, even if you don't get that exact one, you will still be able to get a good one.

yeah apparently this draft cbs is like 2014 draft with wr's sooo much talent but if eagles fix their secondary fletcher cox will get even more sacks

[xskarma]

lol sorry @draynay. Seems your RB is a bit of an idiot (and we're all too eager to jump on any news that comes out >.<

Where are you guys seeing this Butler news?

Just people speculating cause Butler was rumored to be in the Saints trade. He can;t be traded yet though, since he;s a RFA and he hasn;t signed his tender. He has to sign his tender for the Patriots to officially have him under contract and be able to trade him.

It's likely that if he does get traded that he;d want to negotiate with whatever team first and get an extension with them ready for when he gets there. I doubt Butler wants to be traded and play on his original 4M tender, when there's CB's out there getting 10-14 million.

Also, if I am the Pats, I would not trade Jimmy. Brady is 40 now correct?

40 on August 3rd I think. So before the season starts.

Probably something about being "too urban".

"#Raiders agree on a 2 year deal with OT Marshall Newhouse, source said."

lol apparently the Packers offered Jared Cook more money than they ended up paying Bennett. Time for an agent change.

Ouch. That's Ted Thompson going "If you try to fuck with me, I WILL go out of house, just to spite you."

Next Packer free agent that wants to get bottom dollar out of him cause he only wants to sign homegrown talent will think twice.

[Grube]

Sly Williams signed with the Titans. Kind of surprised he went to a 3-4 team when he was better before switching from a 4-3. Hopefully he finds a better fit there.

I personally hope they trade Jimmy G to the Browns. The common idea going around is BB retires with Brady. If that’s the case, then they are going to rebuild in many ways once they leave regardless. If they think Brady has 2-3 years, then chase as many titles as possible in that window. Considering the Browns situation and how many picks they can give over I don’t see how you don’t take them. I mean we are talking possibly getting the number 1 overall plus some, for a backup QB. Who could turn into the next Matt Cassel. You take a 14-2 SB team and hand them a plethora of young weapons to go along with their FA signings and possibly a healthy Gronk (Maybe one season?) and that’s a much scarier team then what we just saw.

Obviously if BB is considering staying even 3-4 years after Brady retires to help them out then this all goes out the window because if BB thinks Jimmy G is the real deal, at least in NE, then you are talking about chasing now or later.

I’d prefer they go for it now just so the Brady/BB duo put up literally uncatchable numbers until medicine or the game evolve to the point where playing to 55+ is a realistic thing.

When everyone says "Jimmy G" it makes me think of Jimmy Graham. Can people please use the full name? Or their last name? I mean hell, I don't even think there has even been another Garoppolo in the NFL, or really pretty much anywhere famous.

His name is hard to spell.

Exactly, if im gonna have to say it a bunch I would prefer to go with Jimmy G, plus it sounds better. And considering how little in the spotlight Graham has been I think most people now moreso associate Jimmy G with him then Graham.

[xskarma]

We can call them East Jimmy and West Jimmy. That solves it.
