He definitely doesn't think he's a finished product. If he did then he wouldn't be working with Jordan Palmer.

That would be almost as bad as the move that dumbass Doyel suggested where we trade down to #26 to get 2 extra day 2 picks.

Holy fuck, that one somehow even worse

No doubt. In '18 we got 3 2nd rounders for trading down 3 spots, so you would think (or at least hope) we'd get a hell of a lot more than that for trading down 22 spots.

A lot of the local media are dumb. Hindsight takes and stupid moves to just show that you are doing something. Its always some complaint.

Before it was "the coaching search is taking too long", well the coach they wanted was a SB coach.
Then its "Steichen will be late putting his staff together and all the good coaches will be gone." He put together a nice offensive staff.
Next it was "they are too diligent in looking at all the QB picks, why are they even looking at Young or Stroud." Do I really have to defend being diligent in trying to find your next franchise QB?
Now its "Why aren't they signing __________." Because we are about to go into the draft.

Its exhausting

$51m a year. More than 20% of cap in one player. Ugh...

Out of the overall $255 Million, $179.3 Million of it is guaranteed ...... I don't know if that makes a difference in regard to the cap.


For the second consecutive game, the Orioles face a highly-regarding starting pitcher ...... Spencer Strider leads the National League in 4 major categories ...... Winning Percentage (1.000), Strikeouts (57), Strikeouts-Per-9-Innings (14.657), and Hits-Per-9-Innings (4.886.)
Dean Kremer, who was the Orioles' best starting pitcher in 2022, has only pitched one good game so far in 2023. His ERA is 6.67, and his WHIP is 1.584.

Why hitting on your draft picks will be even more important. Imagine you have a franchise QB and you have a GM like Grigson at the helm… well we don’t have to imagine, we saw it.

To me this guy isn't even in the top echelon of quarterbacks (he hasn't played at a high level long enough, I think he is in the second level).

As great as his 2022 was, he wasn't in the Mahomes, Allen, Burrow tier. And that's what this money is, tier-1. I read some salary cap guy not long ago predicting Burrow's contract to be like $215m... shit, not anymore.

As for Hurt, we'll see if he comes back to Earth. I've seen enough guys cash in a meteoric rise type of season and not live up to the cap sacrifice. Rewarding one great season with the title of "highest paid ever" is a bold move.

Lol Burrow's getting half a billion if Cincinnati wants to keep him long term.

Mahomes' contract is a bargain in comparison.

These contracts are still being pushed back with (re)structuring and whatnot. In a year or two, Mahomes will be making high $40m's every year and will be underpaid because...

Allen will soon be in the mid/high $50m's, Hurts in the $50m's, Watson will be in the fucking $60m's and Jackson is already turning down better contracts than what Hurts got.

Great news for Herbert... and Burrow will get an even bigger contract than him. All of a sudden Mahomes is barely a top-10 paid QB and it's time to change that.

All this crazy money getting tossed around is gonna turn into teams looking for a new QB every fifth year to avoid this shit, even though they created it. One player making that much will cripple a teams ability to sustain winning.

It will probably lead to a strike/lockout situation.

Using Peyton as the example, the more he made, the better he got. Same with that fucking Cheatriot

Something will have to give. Dam has to break before you rebuild it. Watson set this shit in motion, and he is nowhere near as good as the money he is making. The bubble will burst!

Agree. Owners (outside of Cleveland anyway) won't budge. Players association has guidelines they have to follow, and they'll obviously want more money. I think gridlock will ensue and, as usual, the fans will suffer. I don't even blame Watson at all. Obviously the player will take all the money he can. I blame Cleveland for being stupid.

Which Dam? :rolleyes:

Why do you give a Dam?

He'll pop when the draft comes and no Stroud.

It is boring so I thought I would put in something general about the draft. This guy has a bunch of players he thinks fits the colts mold. Interesting article, I wonder how may he hits on? 1-3?

The Colts are one of the most boring teams in the NFL. That's fine if you're good, but boring and not good is...not good.

Boring front office is a good sign. You have a team that has all sorts of news leaking out of it right and left. It means too many people in the organization are not on the same page.
