Browns had a GREAT first round. Finally we have a front office that knows what they're doing and doesn't panic. Myles Garrett, Jabril Peppers, David Njoku, and Houston first next year!

honestly not to be a jerk, but I just found it striking - the date of the last browns road win - 10/11/2015

Wow. Per @mortreport, even @ChicagoBears coach John Fox didn’t know about plan to draft QB Mitchell Trubisky until a couple hours before.

Seems a bit odd to fire your GM during the draft, but that is what the Bills did. I'm guessing something must have gone down in the background.

Didn't want him to disclose their draft plans to other teams.
― Mr. Snrub, Sunday, 30 April 2017 19:11 (seven years ago) link
Some writers seem to think it was a smart move as they also didn't have to have a GM coming up with all the research in a few weeks.
Bears Trubiskygate gets even more hilarious when Glennon was asked specifically to come out to Soldier Field to sign autographs for fans at a stadium event as the Bears new QB only to have to be there as this whole thing went down.

Trump said it was also a “special pleasure” for him to watch as two of his friends, former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning and businessman and philanthropist Ronald Perelman, received the Lincoln Medal. The theater’s society gives the medal to individuals whose body of work, accomplishments or personal attributes embodies Lincoln’s legacy.

Bruce Arians said on Sirius today that he had to get his stomach pumped twice when he was younger from drinking paint. That's something.— Kevin Clark (@bykevinclark) July 12, 2017

lol the follow up says he drank the paint deliberately because he thought it would make him "harder to tackle in neighborhood football games"!

Really dumb move on the Panthers part, imo. Players don't need to like the GM. In fact I'd prefer it if they don't.

this le'veon bell thing is ugly
i mean, he's making $12m this year and will probably make $14m next year, so he'll be mostly okay. but i agree, he should be making a lot more, right now. but given the artificial salary cap, the steelers would be crazy to give him a big long-term deal -- he'll be 27 when those two franchise tags are gone, and running backs simply don't last much longer than that.
in baseball, players are drastically underpaid their six seasons and the stars, at least, make up for it by being overpaid later in their careers. (there are over 100 baseball players making at least $12m this year.) most football players don't have that kind of time, but RBs especially so.
they really need to go on strike, dammit

There are always quite a few retirements this time of year, but it does seem like a few more than usual. Definitely a few guys walking away early.

Three years after using two first-round draft picks and a fourth-round draft pick to acquire him, the Bills are moving on from Sammy Watkins.Watkins, the talented but so far disappointing wide receiver, has been traded to the Rams. To replace him, the Bills have acquired receiver Jordan Matthews from the Eagles.The Bills announced that they’ve shipped Watkins and a sixth-round draft pick to the Rams for cornerback E.J. Gaines and a second-round draft pick. Separately, the Bills announced that they sent cornerback Ronald Darby to the Eagles for Jordan Matthews and a third-round draft pick.

former espn titans guy paul kuharsky just started a homebrew patreon. he will be friends with you for $100/mo
You get a site subscription plus major perks in the form of access to me. You’re invited to four get togethers a year where I will buy the first round and we will build a circle of trust and talk about a lot of stuff that doesn’t wind up in print. These events may feature special guests. You’ll get me and my bad golf game in your foursome once a year, or if you don’t golf we’ll find a comparable way to get together. You’ll get a spot in a Pick ‘Em pool where we will all pick every game all season long against the spread and see if we can fare better than a coin flip. (I’ve lost to the coin before.) You’ll get my cell phone number and be part of some group texts in addition to being able to text me within reason.
