No not particularly, but I have some amount of faith in Andy Reid (despite his love of Alex) and if they take Watson it's because Reid buys into him.

A long term deal would probably pay Cousins like $20+ million per, so I can see why you just say gently caress it and franchise him again.

But yeah, Kirk deserves to be pissed.... about getting more money then just about any NFL player is actually guaranteed.

Though as long as Washington re-signs their weapons, he's in pretty much the best chance to succeed and demand even more money next year now.

Except the franchise tag again next year would pay him $28.8m, and they can't afford that, so Washington has no negotiating leverage with him left in order to get a discount over his FA deal next year. Hell, since he wants to go to SF, they have to pay more.

They didn't have any leverage once he was willing to take the tag, but now it's official.

and yet somehow still underrated, thanks to some just terrible injury luck. His 2012 was one of the best seasons ever put up by a RB but it too will be forgotten because of the low TD count (5), despite the insane feat of averaging 6.4 YPC on 230 carries.

Jamaal Charles has the best YPC ever and never had a season under 5.0 and that's a really good stat, but what made him even more amazing is that he was really great at all RB duties. Amazing blitz picker-upper, one of the best receiving backs (his 4 TD 200 yard receiving game against the Raiders 2 years ago is still one of my favorite sports memories), and he was equally good at running between the tackles as outside. Really complete, elite back.

The part where Parry hosed up was assaulting someone. Now if he just stole the cart and was drunk, that would be hilarious. But hitting someone isn't cool.

We put a 2nd round tender on our RFA starter. He's actually a solid dude so incredibly doubtful that we drop cash for Peterson.

RB is not a position of need for the Browns, given how solid Crowell has looked. Of course, browns organization, clown car, whatever. But they need basically every other position before RB and have eight boatloads of cash to hand out so I doubt Peterson gets a second look in Cleveland

Hey you know who has opinions? Bill Polian has thoughts that he'd like to share on TO and Randy Moss's hall of fame chances

quote:

“I take neither,” he said. “First of all, here’s my position: (I want players who) contribute both individually and to the team. T.O.’s situation, T.O.’s temperament, his ability to contribute to the team was well known up front. He was going to be a problem. We did not want to deal with problem children. Others may. We didn’t.

“That’s number one. Number two, every year in Indianapolis we said the following: ‘The price of admission is 100 percent effort all the time in everything we do.’ Well, how can we take Randy Moss when we make that statement? It’s that simple.”

---

Furthermore, where effort was never questioned with Owens, it was with Moss — with Hall-of-Famer Jerry Rice once saying that watching someone as talented as Moss not always give 100 percent was “hard for me to swallow.” Nevertheless, like Owens, Moss is expected to reach Canton — maybe not as a first-ballot choice but soon.

“I think they will, unfortunately in my view,” said Polian, “because whether you like it or not. these ‘electoral campaigns’ have a way of swinging people. In my view, and I said this publicly last year, I think the Hall of Fames are for people who make their teams better, not who detract from them.

“Now, T.O. was a bigger detractor over his career than Moss, but you certainly wouldn’t call (Moss’ attitude) any harbinger or example of what you want in a football player other than when he decided to play. ‘I play when I play.’ I don’t buy it.”

TO and Moss are #2 and 3 in career receiving yards for the record.
