gruden better scheme them open.

gruden better scheme them open.

Cooper has never been a contested ball threat, it was easily his biggest red flag coming out of school. That's not changing.

Nelson used to be, but yeah he's done.

Roberts just sucks.

So yeah, you gotta get them open. Martavis Bryant was fine at this last year in limited opportunities but he's not really known for this either. He doesn't track the ball well.

I'd take him on the Lions for a one year deal. Dez, Jones, & Tate would be nice to see together, especially if you line up Tate in the slot and allow him room to move around.

Dez would take targets away from the superior players in Jones and Tate. Would be a terrible move.

I also don't think Dez is a good piece to add when they just brought in 30-something year old Jimmy Graham. The NFL is not the kind of league where good things happen when you go old at multiple skill positions.

I think Bryant be a good fit in Carolina

Would give them a big body for red zone and well the WR talent in Carolina isn't all that great overall anyway

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Guys that get open>big bodies in the redzone.

Bryant to Carolina would be good too. If Bryant goes to a new team and plays to his best he could prove to be a great fit.

 

[Newsworthy]

How big a contract will Dez command?

Rex Ryan calls out Tony Romo...because his teams picked Romo off a few times?

“Sure, Romo calls a lot of plays ahead of time, but do you know how easy that is to do?” Ryan says with a laugh. “If Romo always knows what’s coming, how is it that I used to trap him into throwing picks all the time? Show him one coverage, play another, and he’d throw right into the damn thing!”

Bryant to Carolina would be good too. If Bryant goes to a new team and plays to his best he could prove to be a great fit.

There's not really any room for him here between Funchess, Moore, Smith, Wright, Samuel, and Byrd. He's still better than most of those guys, but they're younger and way more affordable. Plus, I don't think he'd excel (or mesh, for that matter) with Cam. Rodgers is way better of a guy to be able to throw him open.

Their receiver group isn't that good, so yea it wouldn't be the worst idea.

 

[What the Faulk]

I'm here for this

I think the Colts would be wise to look at Bryant as well. Maybe not an attractive place to go to but he'd be the unquestionable #1 for the team so that could be a big reason for him to go with the Colts.

Hilton would easily be their WR1.

Brady missing OTAs

Interesting to read that on Brady, think he'll still be back for the 2018 season though.

he rarely attends OTA's, most players don't, hence the O

Well, except for this part that the guy was reading......

 

[Avs_19]

I don't think players not showing up for voluntary workouts is a big deal when it comes to guys like Gronk, Le'Veon Bell, Aaron Donald, and Earl Thomas because everyone knows they want new contracts so it's expected. A QB like Brady, who has always put the team first, not showing up is newsworthy though. There are clearly issues when it comes to that Brady/Belichick/Pats relationship.

Jason Witten compares Darnold to Romo.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

How can anyone dislike Watt?

2023 big game in Arizona and 2024 big game in New Orleans for those who can't see the tweets (I know there have been issues regarding that)



Nashville is expected to be named the host of the 2019 NFL Draft.
