2021 NFL Off-Season Thread

I don't think he's particularly good but they needed another body back there I guess. 

[Meacon Keaton]

I think that’s actually a fine pick up. I have a soft spot for him though since he’s a cancer survivor.

[gunnar hendershow]

Yeah I think he's just your run of the mill RB but there are worse options back there. I think they'll draft a RB early to better complement Murray.

[Adam]

Kliff likes his 5-wide Offense so I don't know how high a priority RB will be (compared to CB or maybe TE) in the draft, but we do need a good powerful back to mix up the plays.

Worth remembering as well that Kyler takes a lot of the run plays himself in games.

Do they still got Drake/Edmonds?

Edmonds but Drake is in Las Vegas now.

The Bills have announced their plan is to return to full capacity attendance this year with proof of vaccination.  Only a matter of time before other blue state teams start to follow suit (and for Trumpers in those states to go "BUT MAH RIGHTS!!!!")

[Lowerdeck]

The Patriots want full capacity, but I don't know if Mass. is ready to go there yet.  The Red Sox are around 15% (iirc) at the moment.

Connecticut meanwhile is already at 50%

The Bucs opting out of voluntary workouts because of COVID after having a maskless boat parade is hilarious.

The Browns now have three of the past seven No. 1 overall draft picks on their roster, including quarterback Baker Mayfield.

The NFLPA was basically using skipping voluntary workouts as leverage to adjust the offseason schedule, which the NFL did.

I accept this only if they are used as a means of hurrying people to make a pick by having them perform "You know that you should pick somebody" over and over during the countdown in whatever room the GM is.

Former Dallas Cowboys defensive end Aldon Smith has signed with Seattle, the Seahawks announced Thursday. A source told ESPN it is a one-year deal.

Those charges will likely go bye-bye, as there's video evidence he was breaking up a fight, and was not the assaulter.

Not bad.  Pretty uninspired but their previous jerseys were trash so this is an improvement.
