Let me go on record for how horrific the Adams move was from the Raiders perspective and how fantastic it was from Packers perspective.

I can't argue this one. I don't know much about him but he was solid enough last year and Poles should be familiar. I presume $ will be small / reasonable and you need some players. With that said - how is he 3 years in the NFL but 29 years old or something? Did he play in AFL or some other league for a long time or was he some super old collegiate player (or go on a mission / do service time in an academy)?

So I think the Packers & Goodell should do a hidden cam prank on Rodgers and announce the first pick the Packers make as whatever best available QB is on the board. Have a hidden cam following Rodgers (get his reaction)...than Goodell can go....sorry, correction, with the x pick in the 2022 draft, the Packers select wide receiver....

Stupid Richmond...Stupid Hawkeyes....why do I get my hopes up every year come tourney time

Yeah - it’s more I think he has to conserve and that means defensively it just doesn’t work. What I don’t know is come playoff time does it look different and does he have another level that doesn’t cause his body to explode.

Not if they move him with other parts for a better player. I don't think that admits a flop - that is just a step up from your initial move. But with that said - I don't think this front office has that sort of attachment. I also think a lot of this would be different if they had a 100% Lavine and not a 70% (or whatever e is) Lavine.

Vuc isn't part of the LT (IMO). I think he gets flipped in the off-season with others.

I don’t think Armstead is package deal other places just that New Orleans probably pays him the big bucks if they land Watson and he probably likes the No relocation etc in that move (while staying on a team that should really contend).

Once they get Watson - they restructure his deal and can create a bunch of space. The hard work is getting the $35M free to start so they can take him - once they get him (as his contract is currently established) - than they can get creative and spread things into a more cap friendly deal which would give them space for Armstead (presumably).

It seems like Armstead is going to stay in New Orleans - with Watson looking more and more likely to be headed there.

I can’t discount Lynn - dude was really good last year…until his back gave way. But astros are horrific match up for him.

Kopech too. And honestly…Keuchel will be better.

He is healthy and special. 1yr qualifying…no brainer…no brainer. 4 yr…only if you got a discount. What giants did…brilliant with good balance upside vs downside risk (imo).

I got to find a way to make it out there for at least a game. Got the itch…but my kids bye weeks for their sports that i coach aren’t until April…..

I just want Rodon…ugh I hate that they let that sort of arm walk. So special. He is going to kill it with Giants. Kill it. I couldn’t have cared less if they did much more than that to be honest. Cause even with scrubs at 2B and RF if I got Rodon, Cease, Lynn and Gio…knowing I got Kopech, Lopez, Velasquez…whomever else at the 5…plus the rest of the regulars in that lineup..I’m good.

I think Gio wins the Cy Young this year.

Why did I think Abreu was signed another year. Vaughn slides in, Abreu gets ring (and retires) and Sox use money on new talent. That is me trying to Be optimistic…but Abreu is the man.

Or he is a genius. He got paid massively - and in 1-2 years he knows Rockies will move him and he will leverage that no trade to get him somewhere he can win/wants to be and spend most of his career on a winning team having gotten a massive contract too…win win!

Honestly - what If they went Juju, Valdez and a draft pick. I think that could happen. I saw someone else suggest Juju, Arob, 2nd rounder and that isn’t a bad dynamic with Mooney. Reality is first is more likely and I do like Mooney, Juju (just stay healthy) and a rookie. Juju is money in the slot and I think he compliments Mooneys game well. I will say - with the money Miller and these pass rushers got - I am really curious what they could get for Quinn.

Rodon? Yeah - I love Rodon. But they missed the market on him this off-season. And let’s be honest - it was cheap…

I’ll just say everything I have heard tell me this front office is trash and has no clue what the real world dynamics are like. They are in make believe land and completely failed consistently throughout the off-season. The team is still really good - but that doesn’t mean the process and front office get any grace from me. They have sucked period going back the past 12 months (basically post Lynn trade).

So Sox are still a really good team - but this front office is still trash too. Period - end of story.

Lavine injury is hurting them and Vuc has to get upgraded. I think they can win one round but that is it. That said - arrow is still pointing up.

Missed all of last year with Raiders but went from undrafted to a pretty solid depth guy (at a minimum). Presume cheap so can't complain with the signing and still young. Presume cost very low resources so again, no arguments here.

Is he any good? Seems like a good use of money (2 Yr 8M with 1st year fully guaranteed). He plays center & guard and started 28 games over past 2 seasons for Packers. If nothing else - very good depth move that can help if they miss on some of the bigger targets they chase or if Borom doesn't pan out at guard like they hope.
