    They probably drop Whimper (hopefully).

    I've got a source that says he's hearing it's for a 7th round pick.

    7th round pick? Maybe BA is trying to help Ben from getting killed.

    Isn't he just another big slow footed dude? He never was really elite. He had potential, but never really capitalized on it.

    Unless Adams has a bad attitude behind closed doors I would hate to just give up on Adams completely.

    I don't think they are. I think that they're hoping benching Adams and giving him some competition lights a fire. He also needs to just get his head right, and learning on the sideline could do him some good.

    Trading for a washed up Levi Brown doesn't mean we have a longterm answer at left tackle.

    This better be for a later round pick 6th or 7th. This team needs help in many areas and we need the picks.

    Well, at least Colbert/Tomlin are doing SOMETHING about their situation. I would have preferred Monroe, but is Brown better than Adams as of right now? Of course he is. But yeah, its not a "great" pickup by any means. Still, credit to the FO for taking some action.

    I just saw that too, and that goes up to 6 mil next season. They can't really be taking on that money can they? That's insane.

    Well he ranks a little better than Adams and maybe they will move Adams to RT to see if he can play that spot..

    So now we are giving them an "A" for effort??? My My, how the standards have changed around here! This is a complete waste of whatever cap room we had left.

    Holy crap people! The team finally makes a move and everyone is complaining! A stud LT is not going to be sitting on the couch waiting for us to call him. Lets give the guy a chance first shall we?
