Hizawk posted:What is the reason for the Raiders getting rid of the best defensive player on a rookie contract? Mack is only technically on a rookie contract -- his fifth year option was picked up, so he's being paid $13M this year and his contract expires after the season. Yes, that's why I've been pooh-poohing Packer fans talking about trading for Mack.

Guys in the prime of their careers caught up in the cross-fire of something that shouldn’t really be controversial. Of course, the owners are smug as gently caress about it and the fans who don’t think athletes are spoiled will say “Well, blame Kaep!”. On top of that more players are going to become worried. Black men still can’t win in this drat country.

WHOOPS posted:right, i get why their odds were increased, but i’m asking what other chatter there is to support the Packers actually pulling the trigger (there isn’t any from what i see). Other than the bookie odds and the Packers' needs/resources, it's pretty much Packer fan wishful thinking and Gutekunst not immediately killing the idea when it was brought up to him last week: quote:Brian Gutekunst didn’t explicitly say the Green Bay Packers were interested in a trade for training camp holdout Khalil Mack, but the first-year general manager certainly didn’t dismiss a question about the possibility of calling the Oakland Raiders about their All-Pro edge rusher.

https://twitter.com/AKinkhabwala/status/1028988439306362885 You gotta be loving kidding me. You won 0 games last year and now that you have a young franchise QB that needs the experience you're going to die on the hill of "I need to win 5 games with Tyrod rather than 3 with Baker, who cares about his development?"

The browns aren’t winning poo poo this year. The best thing they can do is use a young unbroken promising an and draft picks to lure a decent head coach after this season

He’s certainly capable of starting right away but Tyrod is also quite good and young QBs (especially on the Browns) have a tendency to be ruined learning bad habits playing on a bad team that doesn’t protect/support him. Can you name QBs whose development was hurt by making them sit a year or, more realistically, half a year? At the absolute bare minimum you want Tyrod out there week one in case the line without Thomas is a sieve.

Not that Kizer was as good of a prospect, but the Browns trotted out a QB who wasn't remotely ready for most of last year and they went winless to show for it.

Browns Sit Rookie QB behind competent Bridge QB Internet and sports writers "Get him on the field it is the only way he is going to learn!"

I'd be extremely reluctant to promote Todd Haley to head coach. He's poison. I like how Ben Roethlisberger is no longer talking about retiring anymore now that Todd is gone.

I’m not sure you can really call mcmagic the entire internet. In theory I like the idea of letting Mayfield sit for a year. This is tempered by the fact that he’ll be “developed” by Hue loving Jackson (for as long as he lasts as HC) so it’s hard to say how much benefit he will actually derive from that. At least Zampese seems to have a not-totally-embarrassing resume as a QB coach I guess?

Really though, how can you know either way? “Rookie started early and turned out bad” could’ve been even worse had they sat their first year, “rookie sat early and turned out good” could’ve been awesome from the start and had to shake some rust off once they finally got to start games.
