Eh, nice knowin' ya Dane Fletcher. Good multi-role LB but nothing special. Better coverage guy IIRC but with Collins, Mayo and Hightower he's expendable. Maybe Armond Armstead works out and Ninkovich moves back to full time LB too.

Then he was giving me poo poo that Cam Newton was going to leave Carolina for Denver because they've got all the good receivers and playing in Carolina will make him want to go to an actual franchise that can get receivers. The panthers could find the next Marques Colston right guys... right?.... guys?

It's pretty much a done deal that the Seahawks lose either Thomas or Sherman in 2015. I don't see how they can keep both of them and still field a team or retain their 2016 free agents. Seattle has 22 players reaching free agency in 2015, including Sherman, Thomas, Baldwin, Avril, and Maxwell. Just looking at the list I see almost a dozen that SOMEBODY'S gonna want to throw money at. Cincinnati's in a similar position. 11 current or projected starters reach FA in 2015, including 4 pro-bowlers. Burfict, Green, Boling, and Dalton are clearly all a disaster if they're lost (Yeah, maybe it's better they lose Dalton but Mike and Marv aren't gonna see it that way unless he has a truly disastrous year). Robinson, Lamur, and Gresham are kind of a toss up. Peko, Maualuuauaga, BGE, Newman, and Nugent are obviously gone. It's going to be a nightmare. I hope they get a couple deals done this off-season, cause otherwise they'll definitely lose a few players that aren't expendable.

Boling is replaceable and may have already lost his job to Pollak, Robinson will come cheap, Lamur is a complete question mark but will probably also be cheap, Gresham will almost certainly walk, and Lawfirm and Peko are two of the worst contracts on the team anyway and them being gone makes the more important players easier to re-sign. If the team continues to draft even passably I don't see a real problem at all. The real problem arises if Green or Burfict walk in a manner similar to Joseph did in which case gently caress this dumb team forever

Seattle has 22 players reaching free agency in 2015, including Sherman, Thomas, Baldwin, Avril, and Maxwell. Just looking at the list I see almost a dozen that SOMEBODY'S gonna want to throw money at. There is absolutely no way they lose Thomas and I think they'll bend over backwards to keep Sherman. Thomas will more than likely get his deal this year to stagger things with Sherman and Wilson. If they don't sign anyone they've got a reasonable amount of space to roll over. I really don't think their cap situation is that dire. They'll probably lose some decent players to FA, just like this year, but thus far they've done a great job developing depth (reminder that Byron Maxwell was 3 guys back on the CB depth chart to start the season.) Also, Byrd's contract, and the contracts being handed out to most CB's this year, helped them out a bit WRT Shermand and Thomas.

Of course, DRC is great before he's an Eagle. He loving blows and become one of the worst CB's in football as an Eagle and the first year he's not in Philly, he goes back to being one of the best in the league. And now, he's trying to get back into the NFC East. Good luck with DeSean & Maclin, bitch.

Listening to Eric Decker on the radio trying to say he wasn't motivated by money to sign with the Jets is hilarious. He said all he cares about is winning games and Sedano called him out and said if you're motivated by winning why wouldn't you stay in Denver with the HoF QB. Decker scrambling for an answer was so awkward.

Denver never offered him a contract though. So that's probably why.

Guys who come out and say "I want to get paid" always seem to get poo poo on. Nothing wrong with wanting to get your cash, you have a short time here and the NFL isn't doing you any favors once you are gone. Winning games is one of those "He's a team player!" cliches you have to toss around to the media or they write stupid things about you. Just be like Jim Morrison and get your kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

DangerKat posted:So the dude wants to relive his college days. Who doesn't? I mean say what you want about Geno, obviously he had a terrible year overall, but he really improved the last 5-6 games of the season. Plus he throws a real nice deep ball. Not saying this matters all that much, but I don't think that Geno is the hopeless case that many here think he is. But yeah, I'm sure Decker would have gone back to Denver had they offered him something even close to what the Jets did. Professor Funk fucked around with this message at 15:10 on Mar 17, 2014 |

Yeah what was Decker going to say, really. You have to go with some flavor of "Because I wanted to go to the coolest team ever". Sometimes the answer is more plausible or delivered more smoothly (Steve Smith & Ravens), but Decker couldn't say some flavor of the truth, i.e. "because the Jets would pay me, which they were willing to do because their other WR are pretty bad!" leading to the NY Post "Eric Pecker" headline etc.
