He'd be the main subject in the 30 for 30 documenting the careers ended by Kam Chancellor.

Idunno, TJ McDonald is the one who dick tackled him.

I kinda wanna try it, even though Im patently terrible because Im not as invested in the pro life. Got my team name picked out though!

Are you still mad the fantasy gods answered my prayers on DeZ Bryant during week one?

And I already got my team name. It won't be Team Booty because that was just something I had on the fly.

I was never actually mad

Just, pls no more curses, or I'll make sure Dalton's thumb breaks again.

Then you're further along than me, I've got to come up with a new name.

[THE Bigzoman]

Buddy is a Miami Dolphins fan and has been trying to make an arguement for the Dolphins to sign Greg Hardy.

I imagine Hardy and Suh would get along just fine.....they'd be like the Waynes Brothers intro

Somewhat NFL related, but it looks like Lovie Smith is going back to college football. This makes me a happy camper since it's looking like he will be coaching at Illinois.

I read this earlier. He used to be pretty good coach, and even if he wasn't successful at the Bucs he did oversee the growth of both Mike Evans and Winston. If he can continue doing that he should be okay. I think recruiting will be a hard task for him though after spending so long at the pro level.

He spent a lot of that time as a pro in Chicago, so he should have some good cred locally. Its only 3 years since they fired him so there will be plenty of recruits who grew up Bears fans when he was HC. Could make for a good fit.

Woo baby! First page!
Excited for next season ladies and gents

Think this season I'm gonna work on getting some Cardinals tickets (beyond the Pats game)

Considering his post-season stats for 2015 he literally is the definition of being pretty damn lucky.

Jesus. That's disgusting.

Been pretty boring lately news wise. Really been deflating my balls.

Don't you start...

There. All caught up.

Alright, maybe we can do some prognosticating on the eve of Free Agency. List time!


The questions:


1) Which Free Agent will sign the biggest contract?

2) Which team will "win" Free Agency? (Improve most I mean)

3) Which Free Agent do you hope your team keeps on the team?

4) Who do you think your team signs from elsewhere?

Broncos sign the biggest contract with BrockLobster. Manning is done, don't know why he's pissing on the wheels of progress.

Raiders will win if for no other reason then their cap-space. Jaguars who have the most, will continue to shit the bed.

Hope the Pats keep Akiem Hicks, and let Blount go.

I'd hope the Pats sign Roddy White, but he'll get a big contract somewhere else. Chris Ivory could be a decent pickup if we can get him on the cheap. Edit: Okung would be super nice too

Doug Martin. Cowboys. DO it.

All in jest, had to get something about it on the front page because in the coming weeks it'll be in the middle of free agency.

Heard a lot of times that teams are really going to unload players this year. Lots of guys sitting at the threshold of little dead money left.

1) I'll ignore the franchise tagged players and say Olivier Vernon will get some massive contract somewhere by a pass rush needy team

2) I think many people will think the Raiders, but I think McKenzie is actually too smart to get suckered into bad deals, which is usually needed to get the top dogs. I'll say the Jaguars surprise everyone.

3) Akiem Hicks, no question about it.

4) SURPRISE PICK! I'll say Belichick does something no one expects and signs running back Stevan Ridley after he spent last year on the Jets. Ridley needs a bounce back spot, and the Patriots need a bruiser. Ridley should be fully recovered from his ACL after he was so-so last year.

I'm kinda happy it's been as low-key as it has been.


Had to look at the full free agency list, and yeah. There's going to be a ton of talent out there

Please no.

I debated putting a question on the list about the biggest surprise cut, but wasn't sure if it was interesting enough. Usually we're more interested in who gets signed, not who gets cut as a result.

[WskyDK]

I'd rather resign Steven Jackson before we signed Ridley.

Blount has gotta go though. I've never liked how he hits the back of the line and just stops doing anything.

Think that would go to Roddy White.
Sorry, have a bit of a boner for him since there's a snowball's chance in hell he'd end up in New England.

SUppose I should read the news before I post.

[Darth Belichick]

I could only laugh for the Browns as the only team with triple digit odds, and it jumps to 200.

[draynay]

1) Which Free Agent will sign the biggest contract?

Cornerbacks have been cleaning up and so I figure Janoris Jenkins gets the best deal. Since there isn't a big time LT or pass rusher available my money is on secondary.

2) Which team will "win" Free Agency? (Improve most I mean)

Raiders are gonna grab Weddle, maybe an OL, they have the cap space and have shown enough progress to entice some signees.

3) Which Free Agent do you hope your team keeps on the team?

Saints really only have one, Benjamin Watson, he was awesome, would love to keep him.
Rams need to pay big to keep Jenkins but it would be nice to have him in the fold.

4) Who do you think your team signs from elsewhere?

Saints won't do much, maybe a guard to replace Evans.
Rams will probably look hard at available QBs, not sure who will be available or who I'd favor.

[Darth Belichick]

I want the Pats to sign Ivory to be honest. Him with Lewis is a pretty good mix.
