Offseason news

[jarntt]

Hurns is an interesting one. I've never been quite as big a fan of any of the Jax guys as most people. He can play and make this team no doubt, but he isn't good enough to make them think "now we can cut Dez without worrying". As always I am very interested to see the numbers he will get. Hurns and an early draft pick added to this receiving corps would be pretty good IMO and could change the dynamic of this Offense. T Will is all but gone next year IMO, but if they bring in two guys that are going to play a lot of snaps and don't cut Dez they may just eat the guaranteed dollars and cut him this year because I don't see any way they cut Beasley and I get the feeling they like Brown (and I kind of do too). Switzer would be another possible cut if they get someone to return KOs. If done post 6/1 Scandrick's savings will help cover a T Wil cut.

Route Guru?? How hard is it to learn 6 yards and cut out?

Sounds promising.

I am all for drafting Ridley If he is sitting there. Ridley is going to be a great receiver.

Does anyone think Maurice Hurst could slip to us in the 2nd round?

What was his medical condition again?

 

[Schmoopy1000]

dont know of any.
Only thing I read about him not going 1st round is possible size.

After thinking about it the trade for the raider full back makes sense. He is a good receiver. He is a weapon.

Had an irregular heart beat - held out of combine tests. Says the same thing was caught during medical checks at Michigan too. Something to keep track of.

If the Colts sign Irving and we get 36, but I don't think there is any way he falls into the 60's

Sometimes perception is important too.

I guess it's not surprising they had no problem with the Cabo trip either

Why you can't blame Stephen Jones' trip to the Bahamas for Cowboys' free agency inactivity

Cowboys sign LB Joe Thomas to a 2 year $4.6M deal

Seems a little high. Wonder if no guaranteed money. Like to see the details. Wonder if there are bonuses for starts or snaps played or something. Doesn't seem like an every down player, but if he can play in passing situations that may be good for us. We need someone next to Lee in the nickel.

Yep, we finally get into the FA game and sign a Special Teamer.

We have had him before. He was on our Psquad a couple yrs back. He has had some nice moments and made some big plays for the Pack.

Found this on Wikipedia so take it for what It's worth.

On December 18, 2016, Thomas laid a hit on Chicago's Ka’Deem Carey with so much force, that the "C" decal on Carey's helmet flew off.[9]The Packers won the game 30–27.
