Man it seems like his personality totally changed after that back injury. He was a great teammate prior to that, very positive in the locker room by all accounts.

We need more women in STEM, and by that, I mean skateboarding, television, esports, and magic.

Pretty sure those guys are all FA's already. Saw one guy question if maybe they'd package Bakh in, in which case sure go ahead but we better be getting a 1st or 2.

Oh, that'd be super interesting. Bakhtiari was excellent last season after he shook off the rust, but that's a massive contract and I'm never going to feel confident about his health again. Probably a bad idea to move on unless we can bring back Yosh and feel very confident about Tom's development (or Jones or Walker I guess, but I don't think they got any playtime so I doubt it).

Also, compensatory picks for the draft:

Bears: 7th round
Packers: 5th round + 7th round
Vikings: 6th round

eh

People are talking about Derrick Henry to the Lions as a potential option and oh boy would I like to see him running behind that line

Would probably mean cutting Jamaal though which would make me very sad

Yeah for sure, the Lions have said about how they want to bring him back. But he's likely to be fairly expensive and you almost certainly wouldn't want both him and Henry.

Jamaal is the soul of the team. He’s a limited player but I think the ripple effect from letting him walk would be bad.

It all depends on what Williams gets on the open market. Lions will have him back at the right price.

And they're not getting Henry. No way.

This draft is loaded with RB. They'll go that route.

Kind of a bummer but I figured this was coming - Thielen looked slower last year and was constantly coming off the field limping.

Teams have access to all the player's chipped movement data. They can quantify how much slower he is. I just wonder if they've shown it to Thielen.

Yeah, it’d be cool to see him come back for a one day signing whenever he does call it quits, his local boy walk-on rags-to-roster story is great, but he just ain’t worth the money for what he offers these days, especially with Osborn emerging to back up Jefferson.

Only 2ish years starting. The bears tried to do the right thing and have him ride the bench for 03 and 04. Which made only a little sense since we were fielding the likes of Chad Hutchinson, Chris Chandler, and Craig Krenzel. Certainly more of a "learning what not to do" situation. Then he was injured before 05 which led to orton starting. Yes he was on the team from 03 to 08 and it was a strange ride.

The Eagles didn’t even hire Matt Patricia, and Slay wants out. The mere act of them speaking to Patricia made Slay sour on the front office.

Can’t say I blame him.

That's surprising, Smith was still good last year I thought. Maybe he's just taking a hard stance on renegotiating his contract.
