  1. Roy Williams is a classic underachiever and a bit of a douchebag, but I would put him below Edwards & Santonio Holmes, but above the old receivers discussed earlier. Probably on par with Sims-Walker and probably cheaper at this point. I'd say his more than a bit of a douchebag. I think his attitude probably puts him in less demand than he'd otherwise be.
  2. Cowboys to release both Roy Williams and Marion Barber.
  3. lol...yea there's no undrafted success stories out there...like Kurt Warner, or Warren Moon, or Antonio Gates, or Priest Holmes, or Tony Romo, or Jeff Saturday, or Adam Vinateri, or . I never said there wasn't. There's always diamonds in the rough. But as of right now they don't have much value and you can't be certain they'll even develop into useful players. lol...ok. I guess I failed to see the "diamonds in the rough" exception regarding your description of "turd mountain".

  5. lol....Bengals.
  6. That was expected, right?
  7. Pisa is coming off surgery and would be unable to participate in training camp immediately.
  8. I really like fftoolbox.com a lot.
  9. Man this thread is full of killjoys. Also, I like the Eddie Vedder song...it's lyrics are no more or less ridiculous than the Go Cubs Go lyrics. I'm not sure how you can be ok with Go Cubs Go but not like the Eddie Vedder song based on it's lyrics.
  10. I hate this idea. Players coming off career years right before FA really scare me. 17.5 Sacks in his career prior to last year (7 seasons and 66 games). 12.5 sacks last year at age 30. 2 forced fumbles prior to last year, 2 FF last year I dunno, he just screams 'huge bust' to me. He'll probably go to the Eagles anyway.
  11. I'm really glad to see they made a deal with Linnenkohl (although there are other Cs like Kirkpatrick/O'Dowd/Barnes as I think they are UDFA as well) as Bears needed to get a young C that can either start or most likely learn under Olin for a year (or whatever his contract will be- hopefully Olin will be ok with being a backup after this year if it's a multi year deal).... I don't know about the other guys so I couldn't tell you anything. Just thought I would throw this out there for you guys. So there's a couple of centers in there.
  12. Sure, it was total luck. By your logic it was "lucky" the Bears even made the NFC Championship because they got to play the woeful Seahawks. GB went on a great run, and played the teams in front of them. I don't know what else you would have expected them to do. AND it was with a bunch of the regulars on IR. Just wait until the season starts and we have a lot of those guys back. The Pack are gonna lose a lot of ppls to free agency.
  13. It wouldn't be a Bears offseason without making a safety switch positions.
  14. I was just about to ask what people thought of signing Mebane. As much as I want Henry Melton and Matt Toeania to be capable of holding down the DT position, we could certainly benefit from an upgrade. I don't know much about Mebane though other than apparently he's a run stopper. Can he be the three technique DT for the Bears? He only had 1 sack last year, and 10 for his career (5 seasons). I know that's clearly not the end all for a DT but I wonder if he's only a run stopper. Yahoo sports has a list of the top 100 FA's. Mebane is 42.
  15. NFLPA leadership unanimously ratified the CBA. It's now down to the rank and file membership. They need 50% + 1 vote to pass it. There's almost no chance they won't get that.
  16. Wrong Jets receiver to be interested in. :(
  17. Training camp report dates: WEDNESDAY: Denver, Arizona, Dallas, San Diego, Philadelphia, Jacksonville, New England, Oakland, Baltimore and Seattle. THURSDAY: San Francisco, Cincinnati, Tampa Bay, Kansas City, Miami, Atlanta, Detroit, Washington, New Orleans and Pittsburgh. FRIDAY: Chicago, Buffalo, Cleveland, Indianapolis, New York Giants, Green Bay, Carolina, St. Louis, Tennessee and Minnesota. SATURDAY: New York Jets and Houston.
  18. The floor is 99% of the cap for the next 2 years, and 95% of the cap after that.
  19. No wonder Forte is pushing for a contract extension.
  20. I've gone with Forte Knox for two years running. Probably will stick with that unless something better comes up.
