It's a rebroadcast of a podcast from last year. Maybe he did an extra minute or two somewhere to they can say they "updated it". So it was true...
I'd rather just do the deep dive on the guys we end up picking vs. trying to learn about every prospect. I also try not to get too attached to...
Thanks for the heads up! Great info for a newbie on here like me.
The first sentence here implies that we would somehow be the only team in the league paying RBs less. Which would be a huge advantage. And like...
Great post! Thanks for getting the numbers. The only reason they didn't have a reduction in salary is because the cap inflation has been crazy....
FWP was also a UDFA who was very productive for us. Better than Warren IMO.
It's not a terrible idea when you don't have a QB. It's why we did this in the last (failed) offensive rebuild. Although we tried to keep the old...
I'm always very thankful for people on message boards that do these kind of deep dives on the draft. I'll avidly read all the info that people...
I think it's probably mostly the last bullet here. I'd prefer if he had a PC. I'm a little disappointing that he didn't do an end of year...
I do think it will be interesting to see what happens going forward. If other teams start paying RBs, I hope we don't follow suit. I'd rather...
People "did the math" and most teams realize the explosive plays are really important in the NFL (almost as important as turnovers!). So teams...
I think you'd like the podcast episode if you have time to listen to it (about 1 hour at normal speed, or faster if you increase). They are...
I didn't look, but I think as a %age of the cap RBs went up last year. But still far below where they were in the "glory days" of RBs.
Still paid low relative to other positions. It's Philly, so they went full void years...but his cap hit this year was $6MM, next year $10MM. I...
I really like looking at the results of the draft. But I don't get people that like watching the draft (or even worse, the combine).
Didn't want to necro the old Najee / Warren post for this. But the Freakonomics podcast just released an update of their podcast "Why Don't RBs...
That's cool! I'm new here this season too (from Planet Steelers...which has essentially shut down). I'm looking forward to reading your ratings...
Yep. An owner who prioritizes being competitve in the short term above all else so the team doesn't take the risks that are likely required to...
Yep. He certainly failed at (1) getting good OCs to install an offensive system that worked with the players we had and / or (2) acquiring above...
re: It will be even more interesting to see how long fans will still defend Tomlin if the team can win a lot of games and have great success with...
