What've you got against peppers? Versatile super athlete seems to be the in thing at the moment

Jabrill Peppers is an awkward pairing with Reshad Jones. I don't trust Peppers to play that much single-high, so you're ultimately in a position where you're asking your $12m a year ultra-safety to cover for him... all so he can fill a role that your $12m a year safety is one of the best in the league at.

Dolphins I think are better off looking for a single-high safety. It sucks that the Patriots re-signed Duron Harmon because that would have worked out well.

Fair enough. I assumed they'd draft him if they felt he was bpa and figure out where to play him after that. I can't imagine he'd end up as a conventional FS, more a wierd nickel guy.

i love in all the talk about how the glennon deal is a savvy front-loaded contract that doesn't really hamstring them they forget about the fact that glennon completely sucks and will probably at most like 10% better than whatever vet min scrap heap guy they could pick up.

Draft like 3 QBs in the middle rounds and just let them battle it out over the season. Maybe you hit on something.

Of course it really doesn't matter because they aren't spending any other money and are still way under cap so gently caress it. Just a garbage fire of a franchise.

Because Cleveland is rebuilding, which means they would be stupid to give him a 15,6m one-year contract.

Did Glennon even have the starting job at the end of the season? I thought he got yanked at some point last season.

$240 million of Johnny Walker Blue and Throatzilla's services.

He started playing safety after his freshman year, so he has understandably been raw. Extremely athletic guy. Last year was his best. He can hit the gently caress outta dudes but has been known to take poor angles at times. He can succeed but shouldn't be the last line of defense

I'm assuming Gronkowski is dead and this is how they're going to cover for it.

He's not dead, but the percentage of players that come back and last after the amount of injuries and surgeries that Gronk has had is not very high. I think it's just insurance because he's very liable to re-injure from now on.
