Everyone Stay Calm
March 23, 20108
by Alex Zeese
Despite all the talk from Doug Williams earlier in the season about the team being way more active in free agency this offseason than they were the last few years, it seems like things are still business as usual at Redskins park, or at least things look similar to what we have seen in the last four or five years. There’s no need to continue to get worked up over this situation.
At this point the Redskins are not going to sign any kind of big impact players, mostly because there are no great top of the roster starters left on the free agent market. We got Paul Richardson, he is going to be a starter, and that’s going to be it for big name free agents in 2018. We’re past that point in the season and we are no longer that team that throws silly money around, anyway. At this point the blockbusters are all done. The team is now at the five dollar movie bin of free agency – there are still plenty of good finds, but it’s not going to be a splashy acquisition. Sure, a player like Hankins might still sign on, sure, or Junior Galette may yet come back, but neither are going to be outrageous deals. The Skins are probably not going to break the bank for either of them.
Here’s what I wonder, and stay with me on this: is the team is holding off on any signings because they really want those supplemental draft picks next season? If you weren’t aware, 4 is the max a team can get, and the way it looks right now, Washington might be in line for all 4. Is this a kind of weird offseason guru move that the Skins have never done historically? If that is the plan, I like it.
I am still a person who would rather the Redskins build through the draft more often, so if this is a bit of long term draft strategy on the part of Bruce Allen, than I’m thrilled by that. The Redskins historically are one of the worst teams in the NFL when it comes to getting supplemental draft picks. Of course, I also recognize that we’re giving up former draft picks to get more, but the general idea is replacement of departing talent with cheaper versions who have potential.
This has been how the Redskins have operated the last five years. We don’t traditionally bring in a big name free agent, unless someone like Desean Jackson or Josh Norman unexpectedly becomes available. The Redskins simply prefer to go after average guys who can fill a hole for one or two seasons as they try and focus on drafting and grooming talent. For us fans, yes it is a bit dull, but if you look at the end results, things have been way better the last few years because of it. Do you really want to see the return of Vinny tossing out contracts like stuffed animals at the state fair? Would you rather hear about Redskins One frantically jetting around the country in search of the next Fat Albert?
I didn’t think so. What they’re doing now is better, trust me.
New show up.

Finally back from Fresno… what a wild weekend
Sounds like a post written from a small child 😉
hello mudder, hello fodder, here I am at camp grenada…
“Mad” Mike Hughes, the rocket man who believes the Earth is flat, propelled himself about 1,875 feet into the air Saturday before a hard landing in the Mojave Desert. He told The Associated Press that outside of an aching back he’s fine after the launch near Amboy, California.
“Relieved,” he said after being checked out by paramedics. “I’m tired of people saying I chickened out and didn’t build a rocket. I’m tired of that stuff. I manned up and did it.”
Austined’
the only thing I can say to k0n’s dinner is
I had a shrimp salad and popcorn for dessert
I did live wild and had a nice ice cold glass of chocolate milk
Homemade Pasta e Fagioli (‘Pasta Fazool’) soup and a Caesar salad with a glass of white wine here.
Soups always taste better the 2nd day.
Josh Allen was recruited by nobody except Wyoming . He said he was “no star ” recruit coming out of HS .
Sounds like Cousins…
I was checking out his pro day last week . He threw it 80 yards with ease .
Jeff George could do that too…
I think the guy has more upstairs than George did. He was accurate on his pro day . Got rave reviews . Time will tell I guess
Definitely. Only time will tell if he can handle the position at the pro level. Has the athletic tools. Let’s see what that translates to.
Big as shit , strong .. He’s built for December FB someplace cold.
That definitely helps in the NFL.
He was super scrawny coming out of HS. Put on a lot of weight and muscle in college.
Discussing who is better between Drew Stanton and Robert Griffin.
Yep, it’s the off season
yep. I got sucked in.
Stanton has a job, in the NFL, as a quarterback. That makes him better.
This may change next year, as he is going to Cleveland to be made into glue, so….yeah.
just to be fair , I said that an hour ago.
I worked 14 hours today, don’t care.
I worked zero hours today and I don’t care either . Think of all that double time you made .
Most of it will go to taxes to support D_C’s medication.
Baaawwhhhh !!!!!!!!!!!!
He’ll be at Walmart come April 1st loading up on steaks.
In a motorized cart with nasty bare feet .
I’ll see you tomorrow, Buck. 12 hours yesterday, 14 today. Most of it on a ladder in our radiation unit repairing badly abused 253 SS Alloy. I’m beat.
Later
What a feast tonight. I’m just copying from the menu here as most of my faculties and energy are being used to make this post while my stomach deals with what it got tasked with tonight.
The starters…
Ahi Tuna Nacho, rare, crispy wonton, wasabi aioli, sweet soy
Tenderloin Crostini, sliced filet, béarnaise, demi glace
Home Smoked Salmon, Seattle style, caper dill aioli
Wood Grilled Oysters, garlic butter, parmesan
My entree… Seafood Oscar – half pound lump crab atop pan seared King Salmon
The side… Adult Mac N Cheese, smoked gouda, cure81 ham, white truffle oil
Dessert… This crazy moist chewy brownie buried under heaping scoops of vanilla ice, walnuts and whipped cream. And…some kind of peanut butter cup cake thing that was magnitudes of order better than a Reese’s peanut butter cup. Pure decadence wrapped up in a chocolate crust and peanut butter filling.
Plus a few Woodford Manhattans and great company.
I….am…..stuffed.
I couldn’t read half of that without being stuffed…
Where at?
Kenny’s wood fired grill. If you’re ever in Dallas…good spot to eat.
Kap or Manziel. Id rather have either as my backup over Colt.
(Stirring the pot)
Can I repost this later for my enjoyment?
I was trying to stir the pot but got no takers

I was maybe we’d hear some Duke complaints about home cooking for Kansas, but then… Duke would have to be like the last school to make that complaint.
Did a small child do this?
I hate Duke. It gave me great satisfaction to do this.
So yes…
Yep
Mr Moe has gone negative . The Skins haven’t done one thing right since KC left . I snoop around from time to time . I think the hate Snyder crowd has rubbed off on him. Nobody around to give him an honest debate .
I think he is wrong on AS . That was a good move .
I think teams knew what Cousins was going to do long before the free agency date. I think everyone knew he was going to the Vikings and so teams took the best of the rest early. The Redskins gave up a lot to replace the guy they couldn’t keep. They made the best choice though. Veteran guy who does things like running the football better than Cousins. He was definitely the right guy.
I think by the combine, it was well known by most teams that he was going to the Vikings
the 49ers thing last year was real, and the Skins too might have known that it was a low % chance so they decided to get a bird in the hand before free agency

@RapSheet
The #Browns and QB Drew Stanton have agreed to terms on a 2-year deal, per agent @MikeMcCartney7.
Hard to believe teams are failing to realize gems like Kaepernick, Griffin, and Manziel are out there unclaimed.
I see what you did there…
They realize it. They’re just too cowardly to take on the better player.
Hmmm… interesting you consider it cowardice… not prudence.
Wait… it’s not interesting. Scratch that.
Stanton is twice the player that your boy is
He can actually read a defense
Your boy should have gone to Canada to learn how to play qb but he’s not that bright
LOL
Stanton has a CAREER QB rating of 66.4, which is a helluva lot worse than RG’s worst year.
One of em is in the league , the other isn’t . The guy has become half a nut job and everybody knows it .
I actually think that part is hurting him worse than his ability .
Teams don’t want the distraction of him being the backup, and he’s too injury prone to rely on as a starter.
But he is undoubtedly a better QB than Stanton, as are Kaep and Manziel.
He’s injury prone because he is an egotistical moron who refuses to protect himself
^right, that’s why his ankle dislocated with no contact whatsoever.
You’re as dumb as he is . refusing to admit you’re wrong when everybody around you knows the deal . He busted his ankle because he was trying to make a play where their wasn’t one . Once again he failed in the pocket , sprinted out and tried to throw the ball awkwardly and not in control.
He breaks his shoulder by running head on into the one guy that can actually hit him out of the ten other defensive players . Stupid .
Again, when he broke his shoulder he was running out of bounds. Cousins has done the exact same thing, gotten rocked by a defender, and came away uninjured.
He ran straight into the only guy that could hit him. The only one . He could have slid , he could have picked another spot to run out , but he didn’t .
You are either delusional or lying on purpose .
You’d be better served trying to teach your dog quantum physics
Jesus, Buck, you’re as bad as Greg when it comes to the RG hate. Robert was just running towards the sideline looking to make a throw when his ankle fell apart. Trying to make a play … wow … how terrible.
I just said that . Running toward the sideline while awkwardly and not in full control of his body , attempting to make a throw. He was always running around half crazy because he didn’t know WTF he was doing from the pocket . He wouldn’t slide and he wouldn’t throw the ball away . Deal with it.
So you’re smarter than 32 NFL GM’s
Because all 32 agree that rgriffin is not nfl caliber
He’s not a distraction because he’s not a threat
He’s a flash in the pan he’s a has been
And just signed a two year deal
What’s your guy got
He’s done as an athlete and a good to majority of the reason why is his own stubbornness and his actions
Griffin is terrible, Kaepernick is decent but not good enough to justify the pr nightmare. Johnny may try get another shot but he’s most likely not gonna be a good NFL QB
Question was whether they’re better than Stanton, who has never been anything but terrible, and they all are.

New York Jets rescind offer to Ndamukong Suh http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000922979/article/new-york-jets-rescind-offer-to-ndamukong-suh?campaign=Twitter_atn …
Making a play for Hank
Hadn’t thought about that… you may be right.
I read somewhere recently from one of Suh’s former coaches , you have to scheme around him , because he is gonna do what he wants to do .
I’m so good I don’t have to listen to anybody…
He’s a little strange in my opinion , but he’s a load . Beast to deal with if he wants to be .
crap in a hat if that happens.
I don’t understand our entire free agency strategy at all.
Strategic patience…
I get some of it, we’ve got some guys, Scherff, PSmith, Crowder coming up in the VERY near future who need to be extended.
The Hankins situation, I don’t get…he’s 25, was the 3rd best dt against the run something we struggle MIGHTILY with, he’d be coming to play against the Giants, whom i’m sure hed love to stuff it up their tailpipe twice a year….
I’d have broken from the routine to get him inked to a deal, even if it meant kicking some Kerrigan money down the road
all true. Let some good players at real position of need go by , IDK .
Jets have too much money to compete with, plus, prob better Def coaching
Haynesworth is still flopping around . Tighten up Steve , Alex.
My take is that the kids are extremely admirable for their determination to make a difference. This is what democracy is all about. They’ve already made a difference, getting Florida to raise the age for gun purchases to 21. I hope they don’t become disillusioned when additional change proves harder to come by.
I think your take is way over stated and wrong but then it’s you so…
Quit your whinging, biotch.
You can’t even discern between commentary and whining… biotch…
So Pernell has gone dark. What’s the word on a deal for him?
maybe it was a smokescreen for a cheaper Junior
Just when we were getting the McPhever.
My wife works in a public school and she wishes like hell she could carry her gun concealed . There are at least five students that have to be escorted everywhere they go , because in her words they are bat shit crazy . They actually have to pay someone to walk a kid everywhere he needs to go , everyday .
You can’t just walk in her school off the street . You have to be buzzed in electronically by somebody looking at you on camera . You have to have an ID and a reason to be there . The place is locked down during school hours .
The answer for Austin’s scenario is a bucket of rocks in every class room!
Woo-hoo…the blog is working again. How about them Redskins!
Well, the kids of America showed up all across the country. Good for them. Here’s how I think things will play out:
– These children have organized and mobilized overnight, and they are not going away.
– They will target any Congressman or Senator who refuses to take action on the gun control issue and reducing gun violence.
– They will drag their parents and friends to the polls.
– In the meantime, there is a statistical likelihood that yet another mass shooting will happen before the end of the school year.
– When that happens, the movement will only grow stronger.
– An “A” Rating by the NRA will be targeted and punished in the polls. A+ NRA grade = F- Ballot Box grade.
– Young eligible voters typically don’t vote. They will now. And do so in numbers never seen before.
There could be a bloodbath during the mid-term elections. Fortunately, not a drop of blood will be spilled.
Just thought I’d drop in a truth grenade.
Young people being propped up by the left as a tool to chip away at liberty.
They’re pissed at non-action. Don’t blame ’em.
Non enforcement of existing policy.
Which is non-action
So we take action by creating new laws that won’t be enforced.
Makes sense
As long as nothing is done, incumbents who have been bought by the NRA will be targeted to be voted out of office.
The failure is the execution, not the policy. Voting people out won’t change that.
But that doesn’t matter to the people pushing the kids to the forefront. It is just a power play but the left to take back Congress and continue the inaction
It doesn’t matter to them. Inaction is inaction.
And misdirected action is moronic
On the bright side, these kids will be more vigilant, and be more inclined to report suspicious activity from people exhibiting disturbed behavior.
I fully expect that several potential shootings will be thwarted, if law enforcement acts on tips.
I think it’s more likely they’ll go back to playing video games and complaining about cultural appropriation and why the Government doesn’t give them more free stuff.
Don’t bet on it.
I really think you’re wrong here Austin. This is whining and complaining. Not real action.
“whining and complaining” = democracy, Hope.
If you say so…
I do say so. Just like the NRA is exercising its democratic right when it whines and complains about the 2nd Amendment.
Wow defending the second amendment is whining and complaining? You’re losing it.
You are such a troll, dude. Someone argues for something you agree with and it’s “defending.” Someone argues something you disagree with and it’s “whining and complaining.” You see that, right?
I see that you twist things around and try and rationalize your position even when you’re clearly wrong.
Hate to say it Austin but this is a lot of hot air and hoo ha. People protesting think they’re doing something. This is not real action though. This is just walking around with signs and chanting.
Just thought I’d drop a reality grenade.
Well, they are going to vote, and they’re keeping a scorecard.
I think they’ll be too involved with playing video games to actually do anything. When I was 16 I was already volunteering as a Big Brother to two under privileged kids. I’ve done Habitat for Humanity building houses. I’ve done meals on wheels delivering food to elderly folks. I worked at homeless shelters and even a battered women’s shelter. I’ve made and served Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner for homeless people. THAT’s action.
Shouldn’t they be more focused on the non action by the fbi
or the sheriffs dept
Targeting senators ? That’s a big no no according to the libtards. . Not appropriate language . That instills fear and requires a safe space .
I hope law enforcement does their job next time since there will be another mass shooting.
Yep, it will be a peaceful, nonviolent target painted on anyone who refuses to take gun violence seriously.
What it is and what it will be is anti Trump political protest organized by the left . You’re fooling nobody .
So long as we continue to only vote for Kang or Kodos, we won’t have a good solution. it will always be a bunch of debt funded liabilities for each platform
on the gun issue, the problem is the 2nd Amendment.
the compromise is that you put in an Amendment that deports all ancestry from people who arrived here without legal standing, were born here as anchor babies, and make it retro-active all the way back to the point where immigration restrictions began. if they have no place to go, rope off some decent sized island in Puget Sound, and a couple of those in Alaska and allow them to live in limbo there. And then, a 2nd Amendment that allows the government to ban women from having guns.
You might have a shot getting that passed.
But not until thousands of potentially banned equipment and untold amounts of ammunition is sold to prepers alone.
What has not yet emerged is the uncandidate. What that now looks like is much much much less insider than Trump. And then, possibly civil unrest.
Stay away from the brown acid…

John Mara sounds as frustrated and annoyed as you’ll ever hear him in public about Odell Beckham. Says he’s tired of answering questions about his behavior. Said Beckham knows what is expected of him, “it’s up to him.”
f mara
Odell needs some good PR badly, should come out of the closet if those rumors are true.
I think DB’s should do some sort of gesture mimicking snorting cocaine every time they line up against him or defend a pass against him. Get in his head early and stay there.
lot of empty space to occupy there.
I actually have to respect that from Mara. It IS up to him.
Entitlement is a real thing with these over glorified entertainers. Coaches have to deal with these self absorbed ego maniacs who always think they don’t have to follow the rules.
AustinSkin, Walter in Falls Church, MJ45, k0n, and frediefritz… thank you for your kind words yesterday. It was a hard day and a long night. The wife didn’t sleep at all. Today she is doing better but this is obviously going to take time. Already I have noticed his absence as he used to hop up on the bathroom sink counter whenever I took a shower. I came out this morning and of course he wasn’t laying there. Little things like that will linger for a while. We went to the store and bought half the food we normally do for the week. That was a little weird too.
Hope I’m sorry for your loss. Pets are every bit members of the family and it’s painful losing them. I hope in time the sorrow you’re having right now will turn into cherished memories of your furry loved one
Thanks 65. The cat was 15 and a half years old and had colon cancer. Yesterday morning he was trying to walk over to my wife and fell over. Then he simply could not right himself. When she picked him up she said he was limp and looking at her. She burst into tears and brought him to me. It was time and really a little past time. The vet and the staff were awesome. They were very sympathetic and very gentle and caring with him.
No two cats are alike . Wife is a cat lover . I had a cat cemetery out back of my previous house. I think it was four cats .
have two now that came from the shelter . Pain in my ass but she loves them , so I deal with it .
Otis
Mr Blue
Gus
Flossie
RIP .
RIP
Even in that state its hard to watch the vet put them down, frankly I think thats amongthe worst moments I ever had.
It sucks . No fun at all. Done it several times myself.
It’s been 11 days for us. Our daughter offered to get another cat this morning, but my wife said it was too soon. It isn’t easy. My cat would jump up on my lap(always on my left leg), then climb up on my shoulder(always my left shoulder), and snuggle and purrrrr. She was so much a part of our family.
As I always claimed I lived with my wife and her cats more than had cats as pets I was surprised how much this affected me. But he was a cat that like yours, was very loving. He wanted be near you or on you all the time. Loved being held and petted. The other cat is more typical. Doesn’t want to be touched or petted much. One day we’ll get another cat for her but the grieving has to finish first. Obviously 11 days isn’t enough.
Fredie,
My same sentiments to you and your family as i saud to Hope. Awful.
Sorry to hear about that loss guys, we lost our cat of 11 years about 7 months ago. It was rough, but after a few weeks you get used to it.
Time heals all wounds. This one is just very fresh and we’re just beginning to move through it. Each day will take us a little farther away from the loss though. I have promised my wife that this will be OK in time. She is just very heartbroken right now.
My wife took much longer than i did dealing with it.
Damn this blog is dead the last 2 days. Any dead horses we need to beat some more?
Cousins is one of four quarterbacks to throw at least five touchdowns to eight different receivers since 2015, according to ESPN Stats & Information research.

We don’t have anyone like him at all, actually.
Heis a run-game wrecker and a role player. He’s different than Galette
obviously and I like Galette’s ability to get to the passer but I’m not going to cry if he doesn’t return.

Your score is: 20130 (GRADE: B+)
Your Picks:
Round 1 Pick 13: Vea, Vita, DT, Washington (A)
Round 2 Pick 12: Michel, Sony, RB, Georgia (B+)
Round 4 Pick 13: Gallup, Michael, WR, Colorado State (A+)

Round 7 Pick 23: ODaniel, Dorian, OLB, Clemson (A+)
———————————————-
Tried to hit all of the major needs. Got everything except a TE without making any trades. I’d be happy with this draft
I’m down with that.
Perine is going to have a great year. Book it.
A stab at the draft /first round picks :
1. Browns > Barkley RB #1 should go #1
2. Giants > B Chubb. DL
3. Jets > Darnold. QB
4. Browns > Mayfield QB ( Jets and Browns could easily be switched but I think these 2 go top 4.)
5. Denver > Q. Nelson OL
6. Indy > Vita Vea DL
7. Tampa Bay > D Payne DL
8. Chicago > Minkah Fitzpatrick CB
9. SF > Tr. Edmunds LB
10. Oakland > R. Smith. LB
11.Miami > Josh Rosen QB
12. Buffalo > Josh Allen QB
13. Washington > Derwin James. Frankly really torn here cuz I like Guice just as much. I would almost just flip a coin. Lotta high Impact plays w either imo….
Typically mediocre…no emphasis on SB contention.
Not talking FA. Talking draft…and thats hoping and reaching they stay thru 2nd contract
C to C-
C- to B+ potentially…
🙂
That’s why…POONA!!!
If you take a RB in the 1st round what do you do with Thompson?
Thompson more the scat back .. Guice/Perine the workhorses. And imagine Guice and CT on the field at same time ? If only…
I just hate to see Thompson lose snaps. I’d actually like to see him get more snaps.
We get line help and w Guice he gets more snaps cuz of more ball control…

Round 6 Pick 14: Hearn, Taylor, OG, Clemson (A+)
Round 7 Pick 13: Dion Hamilton, Shaun, ILB, Alabama (A-)
Round 7 Pick 23: Facyson, Brandon, CB, Virginia Tech (A+)
So Skins going to roll w Pernell for a year ? He will come on early or late perhaps (if he can stay on the field some) and Skins will repeat the process in a year….cuz cheaper will be out there I’m sure w no regard to establishing a non turnstiles SB contender. I guess the draft will fill rest of the holes tho…
Frankly… to date..I think the Skins offseason grade is C to C-. Typically mediocre…no emphasis on SB contention.
Well, I think trading for AS was a huge move, so I would tend to give them a higher grade. I would like to see some extensions in place tho. But there is plenty of time for that, as long as they get it done.
AS hopefully takes the final steps in his career. If not the grade is kind.
Watched a lot of running backs etc. yesterday and last nite…. Saquon Barkley is just wild…yes the Barry Sanders comp is about as close as it gets. Guice not far behind….fun to watch. Had to reassess my earlier ranks a bit…
1 Barkley
2 Guice
3 Michel
4 K. Johnson
5 N Chubb.
K Johnson stats not the best when compared w the others…but think he will be a very effective runner behind NFL O line…breaks tackles. Michel w great vision and quicks but not gonna break whole lotta tackles thru front 7. Chubb ( and Freeman) is great ..but just see too much similarity to what Skins have already in Perine…
Barkley is shifty, but nobody was as elusive as Barry Sanders.
The top 3 have sick cutting ability…not gonna venture that yet by a long shot. Sanders was one of my all time favs too. Barkley and Guice got the gallop style too…they will compare down the road.
knock on Johnson is that he’s not as good as a receiver
Cowboys signed another player but they have no money .
Its a phenomenon
Cap hell must not be an actual “lake of fire”.
but it’s gonna bite them in the ass next year .
I hope it bites them in the neck.
just wait until 2020…they’ll only have cap space for 23 players.
I think they will have to make some cuts. Some speculation that Dez may be done in Dallas. Would make sense to cut him because they’re a running team that has a huge cap allocation going to receivers.
IMO, Dez ain’t Jerruh’s boy no more.

Wow, that’s bigger than Trump’s inauguration crowd. I’ll bet he sent a congratulatory tweet for those youngsters exercising their right to peacefully voice their opinions.
Here it is:
“Many lawyers and top law firms want to represent me in the Russia case…don’t believe the Fake News narrative that it is hard to find a lawyer who wants to take this on. Fame & fortune will NEVER be turned down by a lawyer, though some are conflicted. Problem is that a new……
….lawyer or law firm will take months to get up to speed (if for no other reason than they can bill more), which is unfair to our great country – and I am very happy with my existing team. Besides, there was NO COLLUSION with Russia, except by Crooked Hillary and the Dems!”

Heartbreaker for the Campbell clan in the state Tourney today… the boy took his final match into OT and got the takedown…
…but the ref didn’t call it and when the boy jumped up because he thought he won the other boy took him down.

Sorry to hear
He still placed in state… and in Cali that’s saying something
Congrats
Hard work pays off
Good for him. Great accomplishment .
You have a real ref or one of those HS kids refereeing ? Sometimes you can get the shaft at youth matches .
Legit ref
That’s a tough one . Thinking back on certain events with referees but it’s been 15 or so years ago. Don’t think I ever experienced that one . Heartbreaker . Probably is worse on the parent than the kid . I know I wiped away a ton of snot and tears .
He held it together
Congratulations, scamp. You have to be real proud of him. This was a real learning experience, but also should be a real boost to his confidence.
Very much hoping to see Ryan Anderson completely proficient with the defensive schemes and responsibilities. I am expecting him to take a big step forward in 2018.

In my humble opinion, Anderson will be the best pass-rusher on our roster by the end of the 2017 season.
I really hope Bruce – – in his efforts to make up for the terrible FA’s on our d-line – – does not get antsy waiting around for Hankins to make a decision and end up making a play for Suh. I don’t like the dude or his price tag in spite of his talent.
Hold out, Bruce. Hold out man! Get the Hankins deal done.

Meh
Not an elite pass rusher but sets the edge with his size and strength. I like the addition. Nice player who will contribute on a team-friendly contract.
Yeah. We just already have 3 guys just like him. Is like to see a speed guy
We don’t have anyone who knocks RT’s on their ass as often as this dude.
We don’t have anyone like him at all, actually.
He is a run-game wrecker and a role player. He’s different than Galette obviously and I like Galette’s ability to get to the passer but I’m not going to cry if he doesn’t return.
Damn he looks great! Oh yeah that’s right, it’s a highlight film
Meh-1 versus meh 1-a

Nope and I don’t think anyone else will either. Maybe he’s waiting until after the draft like DRC.

I’d have no problem with signing him to a deal similar to Poe
Teddy Bridgewater and Sam Bradford have been released from the Vikings to make room for Robert Griffin the third to join the team as their backup.
Robert Griffin lll was in Miami Florida today filming a cameo spot in a movie. After the scene a bystander had to be arrested for grabbing Robert. The deranged man was heard screaming “I’m difficult cat I’m difficult cat I’m your biggest fan!”

The Philadelphia Eagles wanted a treasure chest if they were going to be tempted to trade away backup quarterback Nick Foles this offseason. Turns out, they didn’t get an offer that even piqued their interest, let alone the first-round pick “at the very least” that they were seeking.

Had to finally euthanize the wife’s cat this morning after 15 years of world traveling and constant companionship. Poor thing was dying of colon cancer. She held on to him a little too long but the time came this morning. She’s grieving hard.
Time to get back on the horse and go get her a new one.
Good advice… I think that is in the near future.
Sorry for your family’s lose.
Sorry to hear that. Putting down a pet is putting down a member of the family, and it’s gut-wrenching.
Thank you Austin and you are spot on. Like losing a child to her.
I love Labradors, but I also know that they rarely make it past 14 years. Even knowing that, it’s a strong kick to the gut when you have to say goodbye.
We just lost our dear furry friend last week. We were driving to the beach, and she had a heart attack. I got out and put her on my wife’s lap, and tried to drive to a vet about 15 minutes away, but she died in my wife’s arms. Very traumatic. Just getting over it now.
Sorry for your loss, but remember what a good home you gave him, and what happiness you shared together.
Condolences to you and your wife.
hope,
it’s of course ridiculous. it’s “just” a cat. but then…. pets are just so wonderful and such a great source of non-judgmental love and affection and dependence, that they become way more than just a cat (or dog). so sorry for her, and your, loss.

Okay, so the Chinese bassist made a ‘dress rehearsal” appearance last night in my brothers band, and she crushed it. Better yet, the band drew a crowd, and nobody left.

Just supporting my brother. But it’s fun watching a band gain momentum. Theyre’ getting re-booked everywhere they play, and now getting into some bigger venues.
Time to raise the appearance fees. Congratulations.
They are using revenues to produce Originals. They have a Grammy-winning producer who loves their new stuff. They have about 30 originals that need to be developed. 6 originals have been produced.
What will be interesting to see is how their stuff gets received in China.
Put the bass player on the cover

Are you wearing a hairpiece?
Just an observation:
– People who have been traditionally non-voters are registering to vote
– Young people historically just don’t vote. Many are voting now, and they are prodding their parents and friends to vote
– Many who have traditionally shown up to vote in years past are now becoming activists
– A record number of people are running for municipal and State offices
Regardless of your world view, I like to see people getting off the sidelines, and participating in Democracy.
My concern is the continuous poisoning of the young minds by the Academics who condemn this country, our flag, our history, and our heroes and teach them to feel like victims. Poor little things need safe spaces and comfort puppies. They’re offended by everything and cannot deal with the least thing that offends their delicate sensitivities. That’s the young folk you want voting.
I just want people to vote. If you don’t vote, then don’t bitch.
I agree with that.
meh,
people under the age of 25 aren’t full adults, they’re only really old enough to be students and fight blindly as soldiers. I don’t want them making decisions any more than I want women as a group doing so. We’ll all have health insurance, and then the Monglians will come. and they’ll all be sold off as slaves and all the men will be butchered. I’ve seen it a hundred times. it’s just basic science
“Do not take the brown acid. The brown acid is bad.”
The flip side of that coin are people whose minds are poisoned by far-right zealots who blame immigrants for all of our woes, who think bathroom bills are a priority, who condemn anyone who hasn’t accepted Jesus Christ as their savior, and think LGBT folks should be denied any basic human rights.
Are there no moderate independants any more?
Plenty of them
not enough obviously
LGBT folks have human rights
they can marry any member of the procreating sex partner they want and act according to how society demands of their biological sex, they’re allowed to shoot guns, go to midget wrestling, eat pizza, you know, all the basic inalienable human rights.
We’ve seen this before in recent history except for the last bullet…when Obama was running for prez the first time.
As it did then and will probably be the case again, interest will wane and folks will back to doing whatever it is they do.
Happy Saturday!

The MIL is coming into town tonight for a few days. It’s not horrible, not by any means. But still.

When you actually dig into that poll, it makes more sense what those polled are on about.
‘WASHINGTON — Nearly two-thirds of Americans (63 percent) say the future of the nation is a very or somewhat significant source of stress, slightly more than perennial stressors like money (62 percent) and work (61 percent), according to the American Psychological Association’s report, “Stress in America™: The State of Our Nation”.
More than half of Americans (59 percent) said they consider this the lowest point in U.S. history that they can remember — a figure spanning every generation, including those who lived through World War II and Vietnam, the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
When asked to think about the nation this year, nearly six in 10 adults (59 percent) report that the current social divisiveness causes them stress. A majority of adults from both political parties say the
future of the nation is a source of stress, though the number is significantly higher for Democrats (73 percent) than for Republicans (56percent) and independents (59 percent).
“We’re seeing significant stress transcending party lines,” said Arthur C. Evans Jr., PhD, APA’s chief executive officer. “The uncertainty and unpredictability tied to the future of our nation is affecting the health and well-being of many Americans in a way that feels unique to this period in recent history.”
The most common issues causing stress when thinking about the nation are health care (43 percent), the economy (35 percent), trust in government (32 percent), hate crimes (31 percent) and crime (31
percent), wars/conflicts with other countries (30 percent), and terrorist attacks in the United States (30 percent). About one in five Americans cited unemployment and low wages (22 percent), and climate
change and environmental issues (21 percent) as issues causing them stress.’

The absolute #1 issue that keeps Texans up at night is access to affordable healthcare healthcare.
Unlike Senator Ted Cruz, Beto O’Rourke is doing live-streamed Town Halls open to the public in every one of the 254 counties in Texas. As you can imagine, many of those counties are deep red. Beto devotes half of each Town Hall to Q&A.
Typically, the first question is healthcare-related. Someone’s prescription just shot up from $100 to $1,200. A local hospital just closed. Others simply can’t afford insurance. Stories of uninsured Texans who get sick and commit suicide rather tan burden their families with medical bills.
Texas has a population of 28 million. 4.5 million currently have no insurance, and it’s estimated that another million will be added to this group, since the individual mandate was removed in the tax bill. Texas has more uninsured citizens than any other State. So, currently 1 on 6 Texans has no health insurance, and it will only get worse. Texans also leads the entire developed world in maternal mortality rates.
Beto is not treating healthcare as a red or blue issue, but rather as something that is essential for all Texans. He says that access to healthcare should not be a function of luck or circumstance, but available to all. So, instead of trying to blow up healthcare as we know it, he wants to get the best minds together to improve access and make it better.
I think people are always going to be “more stressed” about the thing they are feeling today, than the thing that they used to feel yesterday.
But this past election truly sucked and exposed the parties for the fraudulent do-nothing self-serving organizations that they are. The Republican party was hi-jacked by a candidate who was not a Republican and is a Prime-Grade All-Pro piece of trash. The Democracts were “led” by one the slimiest career-politic establishment families you could dig up – so hateable, uninspiring and divisive that they somehow someway lost an election to aforementioned piece of trash.
But people – and the American people in general – are seriously turning soft. Need to pull their heads out of their arses, do some traveling around the world, and realize that on their most “stressful” day they have it better than the vast majority of people in the world trying to make it.
More on Michael Bennett – his attorney is Rusty Hardin, who is our local celebrity attorney. Very experienced, very “Texas”. Biggest claim to fame is that he represented Roger Clemens (who lives in Houston) in his perjury case.
Is there a case # yet?
There is a case number, yes, because it went to the grand jury. I checked last night and it hadn’t been loaded into the system yet.
Roger that. I will have to familiarize myself with the Texas court system.

And the high point was?
That’s extremely ignorant. Man, people are dumb. The lowest point isn’t the Civil War, Pearl Harbor, the use of nukes on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, 58,000 dead in Vietnam, but the presidency of Donald Trump, during which he’s proved to be a cad and a loudmouth, but at a minimum nothing awful has happened and the economy has been doing well. That’s one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard, truly. People are idiots.
Or, the great depression?
Yeah, that’s another one. These liberals have truly lost their minds.
Certifiable….
But most everyone is greatly depressed. So this is the Great Depression
Lol
Let’s face it — if people weren’t idiots we wouldn’t have the POTUS we do.
Exactly, banking on Hillary, how fucking stupid was that?
http://truthfeednews.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/angry-liberal.png
Not really. The idiot thing to do would have been to elect Hillary Clinton. She’s the only reason I voted for Trump. I thank God every day that she’s reduced to a whining, sniveling book salesman.
And that’s why it is the Great Depression. Our only two choices were Hillary and Donald. I chose a write-in candidate, really just a protest vote

That’s a water trap btw
Sounds like Alex Smith is going to help bring back the read-option. I’d like to see Crowder and Richardson running those jet sweep/bubble screen type plays that the Chiefs used Tyreke Hill for.
Say waht you want about RG3, but the 50 series offense was always a joy to watch. Ripped off chunk plays and made defenses look foolish. Still recall how we were housing the Seahawks in the 2012 playoffs with it, until the first injury happened.
Anyway, would love to see a version of it come back.
So…Bennett…Is that going to be the new pass rushing joke and replace “turnstyle?
Shawn Lavauo’s pass pro is about as stiff as an elderly paraplegic security guard.
speaking of indian names, back in college a group of us went on a skiing trip. one of the guys’ girlfriend had never skied. we saw her coming down the bunny slope with arms all raised and flailing and dubbed her “attacking bear”. it seemed really funny at the time. it’s still pretty funny.
And she was really hot…..right?
Many many….many years ago, me and some friends met some girls at Columbia Mall. Long story short, one thing lead to another, we go to one of their homes where there’s pool. Skinny dipping ensued. Because this one girl had the biggest frign bush you ever did see, we called her…bear.
There’s just no making sense with a creature who, inside of 60 seconds, says that the room is hot and wants the A/C on…then complains that the down comforter isn’t on the bed to go on top of the quilt, and, want’s the ceiling fan on.
Pregnant wife?
wife
Sarge is flashing the lights, time to lock in. Move your ass, Bennett, quit cryin’ on that phone. Sarge gonna put a DR on yo azz, give you 90 days in confinement for violating count procedure.
Later peeps.
Between this and whatever Trump does next, we’ll be at the draft in no time.
Should be fun
new one I heard tonight
you want my name or my government name?
so I that is like being called K-Mac or your government name of Keith Macmillan
Sounds like something an incarcerated Indian would say. The government school gave most of them their “christian” names, but they refer to them as “government” names. I dare you to call him Big Mac
was a black dude
I could understand if it was a Native American
maybe he was a Blackfoot Indian
LOL
We live in a country with an ass load of bat shit crazy people .
“Bennett 02157425!”
Robert Littal is right . He just barely brushed up against an elderly person . The cops are racist
Does he look like the type of person who does anything lightly?
IDK but he will eventually run up on the wrong person , if that’s how he conducts himself .
Looks like the wrong person in this situation was an elderly paraplegic lady. The sad thing is that he will get away with it and won’t learn a lesson from it.
I agree . said the same thing more or less
Reading the article , the Houston police chief said Bennett was morally corrupt among other things . He didn’t mince words or hold back .
66 year old paraplegic black woman in a wheel chair who sustained injuries . Don’t even sound real but evidently there’s something to it . I can’t believe the guy would do that , if he in fact did .
That fame gets to some of these Cats. If it had been you or me…… we’d be up the road already.
And fortune, think they can buy their way out of trouble.
Yeah
Good thing it wasn’t a white woman, people would be calling her a racist.
Because of his past activism and because of Texas being considered a “red” state, it’s already a race thing.
I knew that was coming the second I read it . I don’t care what color he is , I would still think the same thing about a guy who would do something like that . IF he did it .
True. Don’t you think the NFL should be disciplining him for this?
I imagine they would if he’s convicted of it .
They’ve punished people who were not convicted before.
That’s true .

Anyone know the reason for the Galette contract withdraw? I read a couple articles and couldn’t find a reason.
No clue . Reluctant to spend money in FA is my thinking .
He was fine while hanging out rehabbing his heels. But soon as he could play again, suddenly he’s a pain in the ass. On twitter no less.
Even going back toward the tail end of last season he was talking shit about he should have more playing time. The stuff he’s been posting these last few weeks, who wants to offer a contract to that kind of headache?
Think they don’t want to get in a bidding war
Then why even offer him one in the first place? Doesn’t make sense to me. I read an article saying he may go to Cleveland because Gregg Williams is there and McGlue is in the personnel Dept. What the hell is McGlue doing in Cleveland?
They hired him a while back. supposedly as a consultant or something such as that

Helping my wife make a cake for our god daughter, I am only helping so i can eat frosting when she is not looking. I am a man child
I have to decorate every cake that goes through the family, no baking though.
My wife does most the work. She grew up in a bakery. I just am a gofer
Your god daughter deserves homemade frosting. If it’s out of a can, scrape that stuff off and do it right.
Think about it. She gets hooked up, and you get to eat all that frosting. Fake as it is.
Its home made. Both home made cream cheese and butter cream frostings
That’s what I’m talking about.
Good for her. Good for you two too.

Yeah, it’s always like that 🙁
Either one of those Safeties would be fine with me.
so it’s like DB, DL, LB, WR now
Thanks for compiling all of this
I could be happy with any of the top dozen, except Ridley. And Nelson is the only OG I would take at 13
Okay, his case isn’t looking too good.

Why post that crap
Why? Because there’s some truth to it. If this was some random white NFL player, a) he probably wouldn’t be prosecuted, and b) even if he was, no one here would be jumping all over his shit for it.
Read my comment immediately below.
My comment stands.
You’re wrong. Like I said before, the DA is a friend. I’ve known her for a long time. My office door was 10 feet from hers at one point. I’ve worked with her on stuff.
She’s actually represented NFL players before.
You can’t speak for me regarding if it was a white guy and how I would react . Not at all. I don’t know about everybody else , but I doubt it .
That’s pretty much you talking out your ass and pretending its factual . Some things never change .
It was a generalization, dude.
Robert LIttal doesn’t know what the heck he’s talking about, and doesn’t know that the DA is a lesbian democrat who almost certainly didn’t vote for Trump.
I’m sure he does nothing lightly.
Spoiled brat, thought he’d push his way. If it were me, I’d be headed for reception at DOC, fuck him.
Mr. Steve, if he wants to go to trial, they can take a bench trial off the table, in Texas?
Yes, Bennett could have a bench trial if that’s what he wanted. Most defendants want a jury – criminal judges alot of times have very little sympathy for defendants. Usually you want a jury and just pray to emerge from voir dire with a jury who you think will be sympathetic to the defendant.
Unless they wheel grandma out. If you were PA on this case, you’d do it, right? I mean…
First of all, the case isn’t loaded into the system yet, so I don’t know what judge he’s in front of. Usually you want a jury. Depends on the judge – the full-time criminal defense attorneys know what judge is sympathetic and which isn’t.
But yes, the DA definitely have the victim testify at trial.
Sure, but in this case, grandma is in a wheelchair. The odds are good for the prosecutor, imo. We’ll see.
Yes, very good odds. Odds are always very good for the DA.
If they weren’t, you’d drop the case 🙂
They wouldn’t bring the case in the first place.
I just said that, Mr. Steve.
You said drop the case. That’s different than not bringing the case in the first place.
***Slaps self for getting too technical***
Lol, that’s why I hired you. It’s what I meant. If the DA didn’t think they had a case, it’d have never made it to the GJ.
He’ll plead it out to a misdemeanor.
Funny, you criticized me for saying the exact same thing in the thread below.
No I didn’t. I criticized you for saying it was a slam dunk if it went to trial.
What I said was, “He’ll almost certainly be convicted of at least a lesser charge” and that a DA would look at it as a slam-dunk case.
Fair enough.
Fun fact: Marshal Yanda has been one of the best, if not THE best OG since he came into the league. But in 2007 and 2010 he played RT and was a top 5 OT both years. At 6’3″ with 32″ arms.
Nice pull, I had totally forgotten about that.
Who’s the top ots in the league currently
twill
Who else
According to PFF the top 3 last year were:
Bakhtiari (6’4″)
Staley (6’5″)
Daryl Williams (6’5″)
PFF is a fraud.
^Like John Bolton is a great choice for NSA….
No, Bolton is a great choice, to me. PFF rankings have no value at all.
Okay, kids, the news reported that Bennett’s being charged under the injury to elderly statute. Here’s the applicable portion of the Texas Penal Code that covers that, which is section 22.04:
______________
(a) A person commits an offense if he intentionally, knowingly, recklessly, or with criminal negligence, by act or intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly by omission, causes to a child, elderly individual, or disabled individual:
(1) serious bodily injury;
(2) serious mental deficiency, impairment, or injury; or
(3) bodily injury.
_____________
We don’t know whether the charge is under (a)(1) (serious bodily injury) or (a)(2) (bodily injury). Let’s assume the best and put it under the lesser of the two, (a)(3).
A charge under (a)(3) is a third degree felony (i.e., less serious and punitive than 2nd or 1st degree) when the conduct was committed “knowingly or intentionally”. If the conduct was merely criminal negligence, or if the offense was committed “recklessly”, then it’s a state jail felony (which is less punitive than a 3rd degree felony).
If he was charged under (a)(1), meaning the serious bodily injury subsection, it can get up to a first degree felony, meaning decades in jail. But I assume we’re talking about (a)(3) here.
So for the person who was questioning whether a judge (it’s actually a jury question, not a judge question) would accept that Bennett’s conduct was intentional, the lesser level of conduct is criminal negligence or recklessness.
Conviction of a third degree felony comes with a punishment of between 2 and 10 years. A state jail felony comes with a term of between 180 days and 2 years.
This case will almost certainly be pleaded down to something that isn’t a felony if Bennett has a clean record (don’t know whether he does), unless the DA really has a thing for this case because the victim is elderly and disabled and it’s a high-vis matter now. But a plea bargain is by far the most likely outcome.
“for the person who was questioning whether a judge…” you’re so nice. My feelings wouldn’t have been hurt if you called me out by name though Steve. The recklessly part fits here. The legal wrangling aside, that’s what I would think he would be charged with and I think that is appropriate.
I couldn’t remember who it was without scanning down in the comments.
NOW I’m hurt… grin.
The charge itself will have all of it – intentionally, knowingly, recklessly, criminal negligence – to give the prosecution the most options.
I haven’t seen the video yet, if a video exists, but what I would think would Bennett’s counsel would be aiming for is to plead down to simple battery, which is a misdemeanor, which would mean fine, probably community service, some sort of BS counseling class.
That’s my take too Steve. But the media is going to spin this for the drama and intone he’s headed to jail.
He heads to jail if Bennett is dumb and insists on a trial. And Bennett is dumb. If I were the DA, I’d be salivating over a case where the defendant is a rich, non-resident NFL player with a history of cantankerous behavior and the vic is an elderly disabled woman. Slam dunk, right there.
He’s a well known social activist and now author . There will be political grandstanding and he will not be convicted of anything .
He’ll almost certainly be convicted of at least a lesser charge.
Be nice to know the facts before we determine that he will almost certainly be convicted, wouldn’t it?
I’m just telling you, from experience. Feel free to not listen.
Also, I know the Harris County District Attorney personally. She wouldn’t charge something unless the facts warrant it. She’s been on both sides of the fence – criminal defense attorney and headed up the county’s anti-gang program. Democrat and not a gun-ho, convict at all costs type.
Thanks steve…
I’m laughing at the notion of very well known player, assaulting security at the frign SuperBowl…and neither team involved in the trade had no idea about it.
Because right. No one in the league office mentioned it, let alone knew about it.
Give me a flip’n break.
Put him in jail and make the iggles take the cap hit for lying. Plus a fine for lying just because they suck.
K…
yeah , that’s gonna happen .
Sounds like this woman security guard in the Bennett incident put up more resistance than Lauvao- can she play LG?
I don’t think she’s allowed to use her wheelchair on the field.
LOL
If we were to go OL at 13 I would take Wynn over Hernandez. Both should be excellent guards but I think Wynn also has the ability to be an above average LT in the NFL. More versatile.

NIMRMOTDC! – 65
NOILRMOT DC
Not a lot of 6’3 tackles in the nfl
short arms also, why he will be moved to guard in NFL
Agreed
He’s not a tackle nor will he be playing tackle
Certainly not full time, but the utility could come in handy. You don’t select him because of it, it’s just a bonus.
^bingo
I suspect that some teams still hold to those sort of cutoffs, but in reality arm length has virtually no value for predicting success at OT.
Probably wouldn’t be a permanent position for him, but nice to have the versatility to play at OT if needed. God knows we could have used that last year. Marshal Yanda has done that on many occasions for Baltimore, and played really well at OT (at 6’3″).
As far as NFL OT’s go, David Bakhtiari is a pretty damned good one at about the same size as Wynn.
I like Hurst too

“Immediately following the game, Bennett shoved his way on to the field where players were gathering to celebrate.
NRG Security personnel, including the 66-year-old disabled woman, told Bennett he had to use a different entrance for field access.
Instead, he pushed through them, including the woman who was part of the security team.
The charge, injury to the elderly, includes intentionally and knowingly, causing bodily injury to a person 65 years or older. It carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
As a result of the indictment, a warrant has been issued for Bennett’s arrest. Prosecutors are working with Bennett’s counsel regarding his surrender.” KHOU.com

He pushed through the security folks to get on the field to congratulate his brother after the Patriots amazing come from behind victory over the Falcons. defense will be he was full of adrenaline and excited and did not intentionally hurt anyone.
defense will be he was full of adrenaline and excited and did not intentionally hurt anyone.
________________
Not a legally sufficient defense. He took intentional acts. He would have to be proven criminally inseane (even temporary) to excuse him from the conduct.
No… he would have to be proven to have knowingly and intentionally caused bodily injury. That knowingly and intentionally part will be the bugaboo.
Grand Jury feels that there is evidence to support that he did.
No doubt they have a nice, clear video of it.
Grand Jury is under immense pressure to do this. I am not an attorney but I did sleep at a Holiday Inn Express…
Hope, I’m an attorney. No, that is not a defense. Just like intoxication would not be a defense.
Nearly all criminal conduct requires a knowing intentional act. You know that shoving someone can cause the other person injury. If you take that step, unless you were suffereing from legally recognized mental disorder preventing you from comprehenidng the consequences of your actions (alcohol, etc.), you are liable for those actions. Arenaline will not suffice as any such legally recognized mental disorder.
You can spout credentials and mince words all you want, he’s never gonna be convicted of this. Lesser charges? Likely, settle out of court? Maybe. Do hard time? No way.
Huntsville, baby get some!
Maybe it will be settled, plead down. Doesn’t change the fact that what I said was legally correct. Not mincing words, but trying to explain what the legal standard is.
The defenses main objective, IMO, will be to reduce the felony.
Of course. 100% agree.
Josh is right. Hope, that isn’t a defense for Bennett.
So, lawyers are PhD-level, MD-licensed, Medical Researchers now?
This is why “science” and government often don’t mix well. It’s why gov science takes forever to update, because it has legal implications and then for 10 years, 9 years after all of the stuff in whatever regulatory or other base document is obsolete, it’s “the [insert document here” says whatever so it must be true, and black/white. and then of course both sides can get expert witnesses to refute each other. If only no lawyers were involved in government, it would work out. we’d have flying cars by now for sure!
He knocked over a granny, deal with it.
The person he pushed was also a woman.
An elderly woman… what kind of security was that?
an elderly woman without the use of her legs
Paraplegic elderly woman to be exact… what was she doing there?
her security equipment was a wheelchair, flashlight, and 0.50 Desert Eagle
Cheerleading ?
His defense will be he was full of adrenaline and excited and did not intentionally hurt anyone.
___________
That isn’t a legal defense.
The law explicitly says intentionally and knowingly injured… the prosecution must prove that he intentionally injured someone.
You don’t understand what “intentionally” means in a criminal law context.
You’re correct there Steve, but I do know the difference between the words “intentionally” and “accidentally” and so does a Judge…
Just stop.
Why would the words intentionally and knowingly have different meanings in criminal law than in the dictionary?

Take a look at his draft profile picture on NFL.com…
Regarding our LG situation, I say we slow play the market and find someone on a 1-year deal while we get some of the younger guys up to speed. If they don’t pan out, then we make a big run for Zack Martin next offseason.
We’re not making any big run next year, because we are gonna have to give Brandon 10+ Million.
Re: Gallette
I’m not busted up about not signing a 30-year old situational pass rusher with rickety tendons. I know he played well in stretches, but it’s not like part-time situational pass-rushers are unicorns. They;re out there if we really need one. A few will likely get cut later on as rosters whittle down, and it’s not like they need extensive coaching in the playbook. They line up, they go after the QB; fairly straightforward. Also frees up some roster space and playing time for a younger player. I’m all for the future-being-now for our defense.
P.S.
Why haven’t we signed Hankins yet?
It’s Bruce’s fault that all we have to complain about today is why it took so long to let Junior walk.
Numbers are okay for Hurst. Not earth shattering.

Until Junior signs somewhere else I’m gonna assume he’s coming back

I agree that losing Junior is not the end of the world. Now losing Hankins…that would be the end of the world!
As is customary, I see the hamsters are busy bashing the player we chose not to sign. Losing Galette isn’t the end of the world, but there’s no reason to minimize his performance. The guy is a talented pass rusher and there’s no two ways about it. Last year he was 9th among 3-4 OLBs in pass rush productivity (pressures per snap played), and that was after not playing the previous two years. That put him ahead of some schlubs like Chandler Jones, Jadaveon Clowney, and Preston Smith.
IF he’s healthy I think he’s going to be a bad man in 2018.
And if we have a less expensive alternative with as much if not more production?
That would be great, but there’s no reason to think we do.
Anderson is getting himself physically prepared to be quicker off the snap.
Super
I think Anderson has all the heart in the world, but may not have the physical talent to become that guy, particularly an edge rusher.
He sucks.
that stat is worthless without thinking about which OLBs are situational pass rushers and which play every down
Preston Smith – 68% of the Def snaps
Galette – 37%
That’s exactly what the stat is designed to show: who is the best pass rusher on a per snap basis? They only consider pass rush snaps for this one.
For comparison, Kerrigan is No. 3 and PSmith is No. 25.
Galette was highly effective when he was in the game and the team should’ve made a bigger effort to re-sign him.
Hey, something we can agree on! 😉
Since it normally takes 1-2 yrs. to fully recover from a torn Achilles, he should be even more effective next year.

Lebron James could easily have added 40 lbs and been the best left tackle to have ever played in the league if he had the notion 15 years ago.
F that, he could have stayed the same weight and been the best TE in the NFL.
Yeah because TE is more important than LT.
As a T- He’d have made twice the money and had a longer career playing a far more important position than TE.
Why not go all in and make him a QB then? lol
Good idea actually. I don’t think Lawrence Taylor himself could have gotten by him. If LBJ played tackle.
Now Shaq … could have been a phenomenal LT.
L James makes more money on shoe deals than he would have his entire NFL career @ LT, including endorsement deals.

Fail
Hood isn’t a failure when compared to expectations. I’d call him a successful signing. He’s on a 2 year, $2.7M contract and has become a league-average starter. If anyone expected him to become Aaron Donald, that was a mistake.
A nose tackle he’s not
I’d say he waaaaay below average.

Plus I was already tired of seeing ragdoll gifs
I threw a Kirk chin-shot in there.
I saw that
I personally think that an edge rusher with speed is as big or a bigger need than another interior defensive lineman. Doesn’t have to be Galette, but they need somebody.
Me thinks they found someone in the draft.
They only really have 2 right now. They are high on Anderson after the work he’s put in. So yeah, they’ll need one. Gallete was barely one…
Have there really been any reports that they are high on Anderson? Don’t recall those. His performance last year was pretty meh (doens’t mean he can’t step up more this year). Also, Anderson was known as more of a run stuffer than pass rusher.
Are you sure you didn’t mean that they were high when they drafted Anderson?
Yes, there were reports they were high on Anderson. I think it came directly from Gruden… but I don’t exactly remember
To me, they have zero. Kerrigan is great, obviously, but he’s not a speed rusher, and Smith is alot like a lesser version of Kerrigan. Anderson isn’t really a pass rusher at all; at least he didn’t show it last year.
I just meant edge rusher… not necessarily speed. Kerrigan certainly isn’t a speed rusher. Smith seems more like a power guy, too
I can’t argue with that.
Get a ferocious enough d-line and even you and you can use average ‘backers to edge rush
If QB’s go 1, 2, 3, maybe 4 even, should the skins try and trade up to 5 with Denver for Chubb or Barkley? It’d be a steep price but it’d be for a stud at a position of need.

If your only concern is that someone is going to make a better offer, there’s no reason to take your offer off the table.
Unless McPhee is about to come to terms OR they Skins are simply movin’ on.

I think I made my stance known on Fuller vs a QB
But Fuller was a bigger loss than Galette. besides its just a carb bomb. blood sugar explosion.
Had holes holes and adding more holes…
Just started. The draft is far more important anyhoo (but not for this season).
Well, we don’t want to pay starter money for a backup. And we are looking at our options for NG. We can draft a NG(Vea or Payne) for a set price, so no sense to offer a huge contract to Hank. We have placed a value on him, and we are apparently sticking to our offer. If someone wants to pay more, so be it. We do still need to extend several of our ’19 FA’s.
Fact is…to date…you are correct. QB solved but lotta Swiss cheese to eat

Skins understanding is that other teams would make him a better offer; yep, they have talked to Galette about the situation. Yes, Cleveland and the Rams. No offer has yet been made. Clearly has connections with both teams: McCloughan in Cle; McVay, Joe Barry in LA
Bullshit. They don’t want him, or don’t want him at given price. Bullshit.
Bullshit what?
