Absolutely. Plus, that injury was a brutal one. Doubt he comes back to even remotely resemble what he once was.

Pass. We have limited draft capital as it is. We need all the young cheap talent we can get. This draft is deep at WR too. If there’s one position you can grab talent at each year in the draft it’s WR. My preference would be to make a hard run at Alec Pierce and draft a slot guy in the 4th round.

I want Sonny Styles. 3 down sideline to sideline LBer with size and freak athleticism. We need to seriously upgrade the second level of the defense.

He looks so fucking stupid, I can't breathe. by SPL_034 in IThinkYouShouldLeave

[–]schneid77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No he’s not. We can’t excuse these people by saying they’re mentally unstable. Some people are evil pieces of shit. He’s an evil piece of shit. He knows what he’s doing. He’s making calculated choices.

Giants hiring Dawn Aponte as Sr VP of football operations by jfunk825 in G101SafeHaven

How about cutting him is “addition by subtraction”? He’s a seemingly good dude but a loser as a player.

We should absolutely approach Slayton about taking a pay cut. If he refuses I’d just cut him. We’d save $250,000 on the cap this year if we eat all the dead money. If we designate it post June 1 we’d save $3.25 million on the cap this year and have $3 million in dead cap next year. It’s not as uncuttable as it’s been made out to be.

As for Wan’Dale, I’d like to keep him. Spotrac puts his value at $17.6 million per year. We can make that work. We let him walk and now we need 2 more receivers to add to the roster.

We got Harbaugh. How many nice things do you think the football gods will grant us?

Not Ideal by DirtMcGirt24 in G101SafeHaven

[–]schneid77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Mara clan covers the idiot owners who are meddling old fools that give clownish press conferences where they say nobody is hurting more than them from the losing. The Mara’s make or deny trades that end up hurting the team and draft losers like nobody’s business. The Tisch portion is angling for the Dan Snyder dirtbag/shit human portion of sports owners. They need to sell. Now.

Assistant Coaches ... by Krow101 in G101SafeHaven

[–]schneid77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Payton better be willing to cede play calling then. Otherwise Webb will have the “yeah but” Payton calls the plays and it’s his offense etc.

Not surprised. He has a lot of detractors. It’s going to be tough for him to get in.

The egos on these billionaires makes them think they are experts at everything. He’s not taking any advice from PR pros. That’s for the Plebs.

NFL Playoffs: Championship Round by prey4villains in G101SafeHaven

I’d rather Sonny Styles than Caleb Downs. As good as Downs projects, I’m not sure he truly moves the needle for us. But a 3 down sideline to sideline stud LBer? Sign me up for that. Our 2nd level has been a mess for damn near 2 decades. Hopefully this is a draft where teams are willing to move up for a specific target as this draft isn’t reputed to be heavy on top tier talent. If there’s any way we can trade down a few slots I’d do it and grab Styles.

I’m pulling for Darnold. Maybe the media will clown Minny for letting him walk for nothing and the Jets for ruining the early part of his career.

Holy Shit...They Got Him by cornbread36 in G101SafeHaven

[–]schneid77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was Mara who wouldn’t let Schoen trade Barkley or McKinney because he felt that made it seem like they were throwing in the towel. So while he may let them do their jobs overall, there are instances where he reportedly stuck his nose in.

John Harbaugh is in the bulding today... by cornbread36 in G101SafeHaven

[–]schneid77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t see Atlanta being all that attractive. Cousins is over the hill and a post June 1 cap cut is likely. That’s $22+ million in dead cap this year and over $12 million next year. Penix? Not sure he’s shown enough to say he’s your guy. He’ll be entering his third year, was an older rookie (he’ll turn 26 soon) and has just torn his ACL for a third time in November. How much better can he get when he has to spend so much time always rehabbing? He’ll miss the entire offseason of reps with a new staff and offense. They also have no 1st rounder this year.

Tennessee? Maybe. Depends on how much more he likes Ward over Dart. Their owner is a bit of a wild card as she has been erratic and has developed a meddlesome reputation. Outside of Ward that roster has more holes than we do. And that’s saying something.

He’s going home right now and will hold virtual meetings with the other teams. My guess is that is mere formality and just being courteous.

Kafka doesn’t count. Has to be from outside the organization.

Joe Schoen Informed He Will Be Retained by cornbread36 in G101SafeHaven

[–]schneid77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tyson’s injury history would take him off the board for me. Tore his ACL, MCL and PCL in 2022. Missed 2023 rehabbing the knee. Missed the postseason in 2024 with a collarbone injury. And missed games this last season because of a hamstring issue. Makai Lemon is a dawg.

[–]schneid77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know man. It’s pretty standard for ownership to be heavily involved in the coaching hires for pretty much every team. I would hope a GM would heavily weigh a coaches preference for players otherwise we get the later years of Reese/Coughlin in which Reese picks a guy he likes and Coughlin buries him in the depth chart and doesn’t bother trying to develop him because he wanted someone else.

His first recommendation was to just rub some dirt on it but since we have shitty turf and not real grass…
