2011 NFL Offseason Thread

I was just about to post that. Chris Kluwe's been the best thing that's happened in this offseason.

[Panni]

Haha thats a great proposal by Kluwe. I also love this line from the writer "Rolling Stone said "they are to the Minneapolis rock scene what MouseRat is to Pawnee." OK, they didn't say that. I said that."

You know what upsets me about the Jets, no matter who we sign we're still in a division with Tom Brady. Until that's no longer the case I can never truly expect them to win the division.

I like the decision to get Haynesworth by the Pats. Gave up nothing and chances are he'll be more motivated than in Washington.

Well, I don't think he can possibly be less motivated

I'll take it. As long as he shows up as Titans Haynesworth instead of Redskins Haynesworth I'll be happy and if not, its only a fifth rounder so no problem there. A 4-3 defense with Haynesworth and Wilfork in the middle sounds like something I'm going to enjoy watching.

In more "prepare for lockout 2021 news", Kevin Kolb to the Cards for Rodgers-Cromartie, a 2nd rounder and $63 million. All that and $20 million guaranteed for a guy with 7 starts in 4 years and a -3 INT to TD ratio.

I like Tavaris Jackson from the glimpses I've seen over the years.

Whose dick has Tavaris Jackson been sucking? Have you actually seen him play?

^ that.

I'm sorry Tavaris is horrible. even with Adrian Peterson and Sidney Rice the guy wasn't halfway decent and before Favre they couldn't make the playoffs. he's garbage, and Seattle is stupid to take him.

I really like Asomugha to Houston if he does go there, much better fit than the Jets and is a huge upgrade for the Texans. this revamped defense could finally push them into the playoffs.

I could see Wisenhunt breaking Kolb's confidence like he did with Leinart.

Wow...talk about a rip off. The Eagles must be screaming in joy after this one.

[Lint]

I'm an Eagles fan...won't hear me complaining about it

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Just on ESPN, Chad Ochocino a New England Patriot.

I don't really have details, I just caught the end of it.

ESPN is going to be unwatchable now, if the Jets get Scrabble you might as well forget the other 30 teams out there.

[Hellfire]

My day gets even better. I still want Randy Moss back though.

Pats/Jets is the new Sawx/Yankees, aside from the Jets never winning anything.

I don't have a problem with it. DRC is overrated; he's basically all potential at this point (same as Kolb), and was a poor fit for AZ's defense that wasn't long for this team anyways. A 2nd rounder to account for the disparity in positional value is fine. The contract extension is too much, too soon though. They should have waited until mid-season to evaluate his worth at the very least, though I can respect going all in for "your guy" (and Kolb has been Whis's "guy" since well before last season even ended).

[gunnar hendershow]

Well the thing with the extension is that there were likely other suitors and the Cards had to offer a big deal to make sure Kolb didn't feel like another team would be a better fit.

Another difference is that it's not even the biggest NY football rivalry (Giants/Eagles) and isn't the biggest AFC rivalry (Colts/Pats and Ravens/Steelers). At least with Yanks/Sawx they're the two most popular teams in the American League.

[NobBe Nobbs]

DRC's already been to the Pro Bowl. He's a bit more than 'just potential'.

Adrian Wilson went to the Pro Bowl last year.

Adrian Wilson was absolutely, unequivocally, undisputedly garbage last year. The Pro Bowl is just a popularity contest, it doesn't hold much water.

[Maxx]

I bet it could hold a lot of water in the lower bowl.

It's been done.
