2019 NFL off-season thread

Every team has every incentive to talk up Murray. It isn't like he's a mystery after winning the Heisman, and I imagine more than a few teams are hoping some team will want to move up in the draft to take him (and not the player those other teams really want).

 

I can see Oakland drafting Murray at No. 4 and him flaming out because he's was taken too high and rushed onto the field for a bad team.

 

Good to see the Browns finally got a kicker.

 

That's Hall of Fame stuff right there. Maybe Jim Brown can mentor him and teach him the finer points of going from an abuser of women to the team's official mascot.

 

Jamarcus Russell just kicked Kareem Hunt's girlfriend in the head and has no idea why.

 

Boycotts the NFL for the Super Bowl, but it's all good to sign the new contract.

Reid: New deal with Panthers helps grievance

The last few years, I’ve wondered if there’s a mental health or CTE issue with him. He just can’t chill.

 

Can't agree with you here. His issue was legitimate.

What I was - and might still be - curious about is if Cam Newton's shoulder does not recover in time for the season? Do they consider Colin Kaepernick for at least this season, and perhaps a backup role if/when Newton returns at full strength? If Dave Tepper was willing to go against the grain and sign Reid, surely this has to be on the table at some level, though we're being given the line of "he'll be ready for the season" (um, we'll see). And, keep in mind, Tepper was the one who broached the issue of what to do if Newton's shoulder issues were at an Andrew Luck level.

 

It's almost as if you expected him to wait for an actual trade or perhaps comprehend the fact that the team doesn't have to grant his request. Honestly, I think that is going to end up being the Steelers' best option. Brown's antics can't be doing anything but hurt his trade value and unloading him for pennies on the dollar and taking a big cap hit makes no sense.

 

And then Ray Rice knocked her the fuck out!
