With how wealth currently works in our country I do not agree with this assessment.

I would rather no cap than a soft cap. The NBA's system is stifling and beyond stupid. Go the NHL route, top to bottom. That's the way.

I'm happy we don't see it much here, but so many fans jump right to "KOC is a bAd pLayCallEr!" based on the offense not working. You don't have to see much film to see his calls are running people around wide a$$ open. Just in those few shots Warner showed there is 100 yards and a touchdown on film for JJ, his QB just sucked so bad he didn't get it to him. And it wasn't even JJ, there are plays where we have 4-5 guys on routes and 3-4 of them are open only for our dingus of a QB to dirt the ball, throw it to the one covered guy, or run around screaming like a scared child the moment pressure comes. I talked about it here when we signed him - I knew it was going to be bad, but this is worse than I thought.

In case anyone wants evidenve for why Wentz will look like a huge upgrade....

I'm actually MORE inclined to move him then. They need them having that sort of galvanizing spirit around the QB they picked 1st overall. Cousins being the focal point on a crappy is all the more reason to move him. This is Joe Ryan or Ryan Jeffers and the Twins stuff here. The Raiders might Tom Pohlad their way through this opportunity, but they shouldn't.

The league handed you a gift by having Washington and Coleman on the board with that Philly pick to make up for the blunder of the 2025 draft....and you took a safety you've had inactive every single game. God I hope Teasley changes our drafting.

I think that depends on how you feel about Mendoza. I just think a mid round pick is more valuable than chasing a low upside ceiling.

I'd love to snag one of the Rams tight ends, but I doubt they move one of them.

Maybe, I'm simply saying it's a piece that could help us gauge that value. The Raiders also, unlike the Cardinals, have a 1st overall pick sitting on the bench that they may want to clear the way for. There is no doubt Kirk is going to be more valuable, but is that a 2nd? I don't know. He's a rental they almost certainly will let walk at the end of the year. Maybe they figure they squeezed all the juice out of that lemon and walking away with 8 competent games and a 3rd rounder is a good deal for them. Maybe they just want something better than the projected comp value he generates. If I were a Raiders fan I'd be a little annoyed we weren't willing to dump him for even a Day 3 pick.

It'll be interesting to see the price that Baltimore paid for Brissett. Should give us a range for Cousins value.

Twins trade Joe Ryan to Baltimore for Colby Mayo, Blaze Alexander, and Luis De Leon. Trade Larnach to Houston for Miguel Ullola Trade Ober to San Fran for a free trolley ride Trade Royce Lewis to Pittsburgh for Henry Davis Sign Dustin May to a 2 year 34M deal (Peripherals show upside to his game) Sign David Bednar to 2 year 40M deal Prepare to trade Pablo at the deadline, let the kids play. Possibly spin off Bednar, Hoffman, and May for more assets if their signings pay off.

I'm willing to consider any of Baltimore's depressed assets. These are the guys to target and hope for bouncebacks.

I've got an extremely busy week, so no, this isn't my life's priority. I read many of the blueprints and simply elected not to address the ridiculous trades and frameworks. Frankly....the Twins and I don't share the same goals.

This is the best one I've read so far.....but I'm totally out on Jake Bauers. He's going to command a ton of money and there just isn't enough evidence to justify that. I don't know what Vegas odds would be on his breakout being a flash in the pan, but I wouldn't want to bet six figures the other way. Find your own Jake Bauers. The cheap kind you salvage for nice production.

Win-Win. If he takes it we have one less roster hole and a potential asset to move. If he signs elsewhere we at least get something for him. The best we could do given the choices made in-season.

Nick...have you heard of Tonya Harding and how much would it take for you to be the Jeff Gillooly in this situation for the sake of the fandom?

Well, in Greenard's case they had a replacement. A good one at least.

Wait....so running around in circles like a chicken after 8 seconds of good protection behind the line of scrimmage isn't wise?

They had levers they could've pulled - O'Neill, not signing Jennings, more aggressively reworking Hockenson, Ginkel, etc.

Him choosing Murray of the available options is the thing I just can't wrap my head around. What did he see on film? I haven't been one to question KOC much because I genuinely think he's a good coach. But this decision is just baffling. It's like a math teacher choosing the kid who can't add to come up and demonstrate calculus every week.

As an Arizonan I was saying it when we signed him. The national narratives were nonsense: He had lots of great weapons, schemes designed for him, coaches catering to him and what you got was unserious football. Everything we see, has always been there. https://www.reddit.com/r/NFLv2/s/oyKZJD4YA5

Maybe this loss will finally force a QB change.

God I hate watching Kyler play football.

At this point....F the Red Wings and their crazy demands.
