My mind is boggled that people keep suggesting this. He's not going to be here in 28. He's not cheap. He's declining. This is a bizarre thing to suggest. Truly. I'm mad at myself for even skimming this article.
Next year was the year to do that, though.....unless people thought JJ was going to be ready this year. Now? Now they are over the cap and need to make tough choices.
Ford isn't a placeholder, but partner.
I'd try for him for sure. He's young and potentially very good. Ryan for Ford and a prospect or two? Lewis for Ford? I mean, Lewis won't be here when this team is good, most likely.
Sure, but those are different questions. And not the one I was asking.
I never liked the pick. I don't know if I will next year or not. But we'll find out in like nine or ten months.
Clemens is not young, and not good. Exactly the kind of guy no team should have as a starter. I'm shocked they'd block anyone young with a bad, old, player. Shocked.
I'd give 5% more to KOC for not running on 2nd and 2 and 3rd and 2 when JJ was scuffling and the D was tired.....but, ya, McCarthy needs to get SO MUCH better to even see average, let alone elite. Good luck with that.
