He WAS surprisingly... alright... in 2014. Then he promptly fell apart and started dropping everything again.

LaFell is a fine 3rd option for an offense. Not good, but a fine guy to have around.

Is it possible that the Hoyer to SF is a smokescreen by SF to force Washingtons hand on Cousins? 🤔

That would be a pretty bad look for the org, but I can believe anything of Jed York

Brandon Lafell was surprisingly good last year. As long as he isn't your first option he would be a good pickup.

I don't see why they would, Cousins himself is the best leverage SF has in their pursuit. Just because they signed Hoyer, doesn't mean they wouldn't also still want Cousins; Hoyer's reportedly only a 2 year deal, and they can afford two QB contracts in the short term.

Worst case scenario SF rolls with Hoyer for a season and picks up Cousins next year when Washington refuses to pay him $40M for a third franchise tag.

A guy called into Mike Francesa today asking about guys like DJ Fluker and Chance Warmack as possible helpful additions to the Giants or Jets offensive line.

Francesa cut him off and said that those players don't exist and are probably just names of the caller's friends.

Ideally, but this is still Jed York's 49ers, so the worst case scenario is Shanahan and Lynch being fired next year, Jed taking over personally as GM and Skip Bayless gets brought in as head coach with an eight year contract. Also Bowman's other knee is shredded in a freak snowboarding accident during the offseason, and every high priced FA they sign this year "retires."

Yeah full circle. He takes off his Falcons uniform after the Super Bowl, walks out of Falcons HQ, around it, back into the building, and inks his contract.

This guy says, in the same breath, that he doesn't recognize the names and that the caller made them up and then also says he couldn't understand what the names were. So which was it? And why didn't he ask the guy to repeat the names?

yup

e2: he also literally questioned how women would be able to walk up and down the sideline of a basketball court for an entire game while wearing heels

He might mean "free agency player" in the sense of teams that are big players in free agency?

Otherwise, yeah, there have been a bunch of individual players who were big-name free agents that got rings on their new teams.

This is what I meant, but I phrased if poorly. The list of names people brought up only illustrate my point though.

Revis - was cut, not a FA
Manning - was cut, not a FA
Talib - free agent
Ware - was cut, not a free agent
Woodson - free agent
Boldin - was traded, not a free agent


Most of those guys didn't impact the comp picks and good teams extend their own players and let the guys who are overpriced walk. It's how you stay competitive consistently.

Hopefully the guaranteed isn't high


It's a dumb position to be in, but it's probably the right move for the Dolphins to overpay Branch on a deal for a year or two to buy time.

They need to be four deep at DE and they've got Cameron Wake and nothing else- no depth, no developmental players. FA is pretty well barren, and there really isn't anyone else available who fits this defense- they're either undersized edge rushers(which isn't really the wide-9 thing contrary to popular belief) or they're guys who fill the Jason Jones of a guy who is going to move inside in passing situations(which the draft is also full up on)
