Yea.

Supposedly they informed him that they were already planning on re-doing his deal after this season so hopefully that good faith effort means...something.

They are hopeful he shows to tc...lol...

Sometimes I feel really sorry for Jameis Winston until I remind myself that he is a scumbag rapist.

Also that he has made more money in the past 3 years than I would if I cloned myself 50 times, killed all of us, and had our internal organs sold on the black market.

Why wouldn’t you just clone the organs instead of a whole human that you have to kill off?

Killing clones has all of the self actualization benefits of suicide without the pesky 'being dead' at the end.

Julio Jones

Devonta Freeman
Tevin Coleman
Mo Sanu
Michael Thomas
Ted Ginn
Alvin Kamara
Mark Ingram
Mike Evans
Desean Jackson
OJ Howard
Cam Brate
Chris Godwin
Ronald Jones (R)
Greg Olsen
Devin Funchess
DJ Moore (R)

The crazy part is only three guys on the list are over 30, DJax, Olsen, and Ginn.

Yea, I mean absolutely, otoh they only have $5m in cap room already and have extensions coming up for Matthews, Grady immediately and players like Jones, Neal, Beasley, Coleman (potentially). That coupled with the fact that holdouts never end well for the players, I can kinda see their side and the whole 'just wait til the offseason and we got you' mentality.

We will see what Julio thinks though with TC starting next week...

Makes you think, doesn't it? Fully guaranteed contracts, no franchise tags, I think you would see more trades and huge names moving around. Like what would be the equivalent in the NFL to Lebron leaving in FA? Imagine Tom Brady leaving NE in FA. It would never happen.

*Team starts doing no huddle which means Mariota is calling the plays and not robeski* HOLY poo poo THE BALL IS MOVING

Right? On the first series I remember them going no huddle and Mariota calling three run pass options from the shotgun in a row. Every single one went for 15 yards +. Now that I think about it that might have been before Robiskie but whoever it was still sucked

Yeah I don't think you can argue that the NFCS has the best skill position players. What's cool about those older dudes is they are some of the best players. Jackson and Ginn in particular are easily two of my favorite WRs. I have a thing for savvy veterans who can still go deep and run right past the coverage

Joe Montana with the Chiefs, Brett Favre with the Jets/Vikings, Peyton Manning with the Broncos.

Granted, their replacements were lined up, but they all made playoff runs and Peyton even managed (to have the league leading defense carry him to) a Super Bowl win.

Reggie White might be a better example, but I'm not sure of the circumstances surrounding him leaving philly.

Weren't all them in the twilight of their careers though? Manning was post neck surgery...

James is in his prime. Though, getting a bit old for sure but is not showing any signs of slowing.

Ginn and Jackson are both great. I feel like the lighter, slimmer quicker wide receivers age a little better than the big bodied fellows.
