You really think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and be a llama?

This isn't true anymore.

Gano missed just two kicks last year. In a year where kicking percentages were at their worst in like 10 years.

There's a real downturn at the moment in reliable kickers.

I think he had all of one 50 yard FG and he missed 3 extra points.


I guess I'm still kinda in the "kickers are fungible and not people" phase

The Bucs have exercised one-year options for safety Chris Conte, tackle Demar Dotson and defensive back Josh Robinson, extending each player’s contract through the 2018 season.

Isn't good? He was an above average guard prior to the triceps injury and considering how poo poo Wes and Ben looked in his stead...this is a big restructure.

Levitre was the better guard on a dogshit interior offensive line when we traded for him in 2015. He was a penalty machine.

The entire line performed loads better when we brought in Mack, but Levitre was still inconsistent, and he's had injury last season. He's good, not great, and while I'm glad we've got him still, he's not a great solution unless he can stay health and stop holding. We traded a goddamn 6th for him, he's not a world-changer, and we only did THAT because our line was that loving bad.

Yeah, am still pro upgrade the guard position via draft/fa but Levitre is more than serviceable in the interim.

Brees ain't leaving, they're just settling on a price he can live with. This is manufactured offseason drama.

They restructured Brooks Reed yesterday. Him and Levitre's deal probably paid for Matt Bryant.

I don't predict the Falcons going big in FA this offseason anyway, so I expect Matts extension to come later, once they've determined how much cap they can give him this year in signing bonus.

I don't think they go big either, but they have a lot of spots to fill...Levi was a June 1 cut, so his money doesn't come off the books til then and extending Matt now will provide immediate cap space to help fill the holes of those we let walk...I feel like it will get done before FA starts, but I dunno. I haven't heard squat other than negotiations are under way so :shrug:

They can behave like any savings from a post-june-one cut are already there. They don't need to wait until then to use that cap.
