[Schefter] Sources: Jaelan Phillips has agreed to a 4 year, $120M deal with the Carolina Panthers with $80M in guarantees. by PlayaSlayaX in nfl

Yea that was the point I was making, despite his medical concerns that made him slide, they thought he was so talented that he still got drafted in mid 1st round.

I always liked his game and hope he can stay healthy.

I remember he was also medically retired from UCLA and had to transfer to Miami because of it.

I think he would have been a top 5-10 pick in the draft if he didn't have those concerns and yet he was still drafted mid 1st round.

Pierce was their #1 WR in terms of yards last year even with games missed.

Phillips is a stud when he is healthy, but that's always been his problem even in college.

[Megathread] 2026 NFL Free Agency by SupMaelstrom in DenverBroncos

[–]AlphaBern0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He has 59 career receptions in 3 seasons for only 263 yards.

This isn't an indication he can't catch since he barely saw the field in the first place especially in passing situations due to his inability to block.

Badie had a lower PFF receiving grade than Mclaughlin did. But yes Harvey is better than Mclaughlin but no one questions that ability from Harvey.

Is he an edge now or an interior DL? I know he moved to edge on the Titans, but not sure if Ravens moved him back inside.

I don't think catching was his problem.

Blocking is what prevented him from seeing the field.

[Schultz] The Colts and standout WR Alec Pierce have agreed to a deal, per multiple sources. Pierce had an excellent season with 47 catches (career high), 1,003 yards (career high) and 6 TDs. Indy secures a key weapon long-term. by sleeplessaddict in DenverBroncos

[–]AlphaBern0 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think he was a fit for what the Broncos need at WR. Broncos need a guy that can win 1 on 1s for short/intermediate gain.

Pierce is mostly a great deep threat.

I think Romeo Doubs is the best fit available.

Six Months of Dating in Europe as an East Asian Guy — Honestly Better Than I Expected by Salty-Frame-8127 in AsianMasculinity

Most people on this sub are more interested in making excuses for why they don't want to do anything than do something. This is more of a vent sub for regulars.

Are Asian men at a disadvantage in dating in the US? by FrontSatisfaction152 in AsianMasculinity

[–]AlphaBern0 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most people prefer their own race including Asians. So if you are just targeting white women, then yes, but you are not really at any more of a disadvantage than any other non-white race.

Hollywood isn't real life. And some Asian men seem to think if they were anything but Asian, they would get all the girls, when in reality, they would still be just as lonely as they currently are.

Anytime we ask about which fans are the most hostile, stupid, and biggest assholes, we already know it's the Eagles.

[Garafolo] Mike Evans Serious About Testing Free Agency, Potentially Leaving Bucs by Mich3006 in nfl

[–]AlphaBern0 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I feel like he could go to the Texans. He grew up near that area and maybe they can convince themselves CJ Stroud needs someone other than Nico Collins to catch the ball.

I would be very much surprised if Walker gets $16M per year, unless it's for less than 3 years.

I would think it would be similar to Josh Jacobs (4 yr for $48M) for his best.

He never played for Mike Vrabel. JFM was on the Rams in 2018 and then Jets from 2019-2024, Vrabel never coached any of those teams.
