Most of that is fair, though I will say that over the course of his career, James had done more than Vannett has done to this point.
That wasn't a fluke play. It was a well-run route, a very good throw from Rudolph and Smith-Schuster took a good path to the end zone. Sure, the...
They only upgraded the tight end position for this season. He is a free agent when the season ends. They may end up re-signing him, but they did...
We have no evidence that they have such an agreement in place. If they wanted him for the future, they could have waited until the offseason and...
Then sign him in the offseason without giving up the asset for him.
This argument was flawed the first time somebody trotted it out there and it is even moreso now. Those previous complaints came in the offseason...
Varrett set career highs last year with 29 receptions for 269 yards and you think he is a "great tight end?" Of course you do. You think...
That is exactly the point. I'm not saying you give up on the season entirely, but at some point you've got to question sending good resources...
They are throwing away assets for nothing. It's not like this is some great player they are adding, either. This is a backup-level player. At 0-3...
The problem is they gave up an asset for the future to rent a backup-level player for only this season when the team is 0-3 and lost...
That was my concern as well. Yes, they have a big hole at tight end for this season, but they are 0-3 and their quarterback is out for the season....
He is a good backup or a below-average starter. He is exactly the type of player you were talking about and he wanted to test free agency. No way...
James was a free agent who got way too much money from the Lions. Weren’t you complaining about overpaying mediocre veterans on another thread?
You call what Williams does against receivers covering? Williams has proven he can be a competent starter. Matakevich has proven he cannot. Stick...
Fitzpatrick is only in his second season. Rebuilds happen fast in the NFL. He will be part of one here, assuming he produces. I agree that they...
Actually, they aren't saying that about Rudolph at all and they certainly aren't committed to giving him a big contract unless he develops into...
This is a ridiculous comparison. Mack didn't cost one first-round draft pick. The Bears gave up two first-round picks, a third-round pick in 2020...
He wasn't really available. If a team could have gotten him for a first-round pick he would have been traded. Somebody would have paid that price.
We've all addressed speed. Matakevich has none. He is a terrible player on defense. It's bad enough they waste a roster spot on him for special...
It was well defended by 10 guys, but Barron absolutely held Kittle. The offense's inability to possess the ball is a big part of the problem. The...
