2017 NFL Off-Season Thread

[DFF]

Cordarelle Patterson is signing with the Raiders

[Lineker]

That's so Raiders.

[gunnar hendershow]

In response to the Eagles having all that dead Daniel money.

It's the omnipresent ghost of Chip Kelly.

[Lineker]

Eddie Lacy to Seattle. One-year deal for $5.55 million, with $3 million of it fully guaranteed.

[DFF]

... and they are still interviewing Charles too.

[Toe]

I'm glad Tyrod Taylor is staying with the Bills. If Buffalo can strengthen their defence this off-season, they might actually be a competitive team. It didn't help that Shaq Lawson missed time and Ragland missed the whole season. Those two should help.

Smart move.  The days of the bell cow back are gone.  Having Lacy and Charles means you have a persistent run game people have to respect.

Poe to Atlanta?  They're chattin' it up.  Andre Roberts just signed, but I'm far less enthused about our new Fair Catch Machine.

Lacy and Charles? His name escapes me right now but did they not already have at least one good back?

Thomas Rawls, who has some injury history. 

Do they still have Prosise too?

[livid]

Yes they still have Prosise, meaning Rawls might end up being the odd man out since they drafted Prosise in the 3rd round last year.

A team would probably give up a 5th for Rawls.

[Lineker]

Pats have added another, in Rex Burkhead.

Anyone know if he's any good?

 

I wonder how that affects Blount too

[DFF]

Percy Harvin retired again (again?).

Datone Jones signed with the Vikings

Yeah, signing the best KR in the league and an explosive but imperfect 4th WR on a one year prove it deal IS 'so Raiders' and we have Reggie to thank for that.

@Maxx, I need a Cowboy fans opinion... Aikman or Romo?

 

Also, someone on Reddit told me that John Elway 'never did anything until he got TD' and, thus, is 'not even in the conversation' for best QB of his era...

[Maxx]

Aikman always.

[Meacon Keaton]

Reddit sounds dumb.

It is! Tony Romo would have won '5 or 6 Superbowls' and Jerome Bettis is better than Marcus Allen.

[TCO]

Different eras and teams but Romo's stats are much better than Aikman's though, so there's that.

I don't think you can really compare post-Manning rules to pre-Manning rules.
