League-wide, the RPOs have certainly been sniffed out, especially with teams (seemingly) rolling back the QB running as an actual option. And when the RPOs are Trubisky's favorite play, it causes issues. Tell you what, I wish more people here could watch Baltimore play offense right now. It seemingly makes a lot more sense for Chicago's personnel. It's power run mixed with deep passes. It's one of the more fun examples of football this year. Longtime CEO coach John Harbaugh finding a player he loves, getting an experienced but seemingly outdated OC in Greg Roman and creating something new in a league that seemed to be homogenizing. But for me the NFL this year has largely been awful, certainly aided by Bears. Not fun at all, can't wait for what should be one of the best NBA seasons in a long while.

This is a terrible post.

Yeah it's big list of rebuilding teams. If he has no serious teams as his suitors that's not good for him getting the amount he wants.

He didn't trade up to get Daniels.

He's clearly good, but for him the margin between good and bad is very thin. His offense isn't elite, it's good. His defense is bad. If his offense regresses, he's bad. He's a guy I just don't feel I would think "well RF is now solved for years", and so it's hard to want to give him that 4 year deal.

Dalton is a much better qb than trubisky but at the very least has a much higher floor. His offensive talent now is terrible.

Gonna go out on a limb and say blue jays aren't going to sign him.

Even seeing Trevor Lawrence struggle in his second year (a bit), you just can't evaluate a QB with just one year starting in college.Defenses took away all of Trubisky's comfort plays, and he just cannot adjust. It sucks, there is no easy path forward for bears. Andy Dalton has to be the move. He has a very reasonable deal.

It’s kind of amazing, this many years, many different decision makers, none got lucky.

Got some news about JBJ

Having lived through Adam Eatons 2016, I find your claims specious.

The cardinals just made playoffs on backs of a huge defensive improvement. There’s also no guarantee that a player going into his age 33 season like Calhoun maintains his modestly above average offense.

Yeah I think people are way too presumptuous they will decline. If they are making a run at Cole maybe they shed cost prior and just plan on Addel?

Isn't Betances available this offseason? We are pretty good at healing torn achilles, maybe give him a 2 year deal and make a 2021 play.

Is Nimmo really the "dream" or just a realistic upgrade?

Is this the Arby’s?

Didn’t I see ATL playing New York last night? Did they have a back to back during preseason?

The only prominent “local guy” we heard some smoke around recently was Schnell.

I thought the season started today for some reason. Boo another preseason game.

Moustakas at 2b then shifting to DH is one possibility. The other is Leury, in-house. Defense-wise, jose iglesias could be cheap.

I know the tool is finally working right when I am struggling to make a true super offseason and stay under $160 mill (which is already $40 mill over where I'd expect it)

but opting in guarantees his salary. Depends on his priorities. I think it's interesting for sox either way as it forces boston into some very weird territory if he opts in.

I think debate will heat up on JDM when people know he's available.

I disagree. I know he was ineffective after injury, but I was surprised how much even pitchers with TJ were getting in offseason - and he's only 28 and had a history of effectiveness.

And colin mchugh / wood getting unlikely small contracts.
