Someone here still loves my memory. But yeah, I kind of hated them both. But if I had to chose one to die from Kung flu, it would be Partial. Then Bigby. Then Oprah. Then probably Bush.

f'ck; I thought this guy died or was permanantly living at B@@by bars. How's it hangin Skin ?

[Bretsky]

Probably not that cheap but I'd love to do it. This dude screams Gooter Guy to me. Great athlete. Still young. Great production with Andy Luck. If he'd do 1 year, 10M fully guaranteed I would do it in a second.

Hot take: I think it's an easy argument to make that the Packers today are worse than they were in January. I'd like to see a few mid-market moves now that the crazy money stuff is largely over.

I wonder if Ebron has a SHIT attittude.

WHY would the Bears sign F'ckin Jimmmmmy for eight mil a year over Ebron ????????/

[Bretsky]

Given health histories, I am worried about not have Tramontana. Also don't want to lose Swervin' Ervin.

I want Tramon too; And Ervin is a minimum wage guy we should bring back

[QBME]

Fuck Clay Matthews

Amen.

[Bretsky]

I think Savage and Keke are players; and, I like the RB Williams from last years draft.

2018, Alexander and Scott are legit. Jury is still out on St. Brown. Jackson is middling, Valdez-Scantling has produced some. Moore was a whiff.

Oren Burks was a huge whiff... he should be cut this year.

Throw in his FA work, and I think Gute is light years better than Ted.

Burks probably made more plays than MVS last year; maybe 2 to 1; both of them suck at this point. Jackson as a second rounder is not as bad at Beconman at pick 12 but both are shit stains so far. Gute's FA work is better then Ted's cause he takes some swings to offset the weaknesses. But his drafts....ok at best.

CMIII at ILB and Ebron at TE.

CMIII at ILB and Ebron at TE.

+ 1 to that

[Fosco33]

Hell no to cm3

[smuggler]

What is with all the CMIII hate? I am more on the side of the hall that don't want to sign him, but he made $3mil last year. It's not exactly a big risk.

Why do I still love you? Why do I still hate you?

This Beetlejuice MFer shows up after you say his name. Hows things basket o'skin.

He only made $3 million? And presumably could be signed for less this year? Absolutely we should sign him.

I ask too, what's with all the hate? He didn't really part on bad terms; He pretty much lived up to the relatively big contract he had.

[RashanGary]

I hope clay manages to get 8.5 more sacks. 100 gives him a barely outside shot at the HOF

The problem with Matthews at ILB has been covered before.

1. First, he is given credit for the turnaround of that 2014 defense. But Perry getting to start opposite Peppers was a larger reason, Perry was a stone wall against the run that year and his decent pressure on the edge made Matthews crashing into the backfield on blitzes work better on pass rush.

2. He isn't a particularly instinctual player and prefers to anticipate or guess and chase. Hence his problems with anything that looked like an option. That isn't a good trait at ILB. Especially since his running mate would be the guy with speed to get to the outside. You might be able to counter them both to death.

3. He sometimes prefers to run around blockers, which can cause multiple problems inside if you don't get home.

That said, he is a big body and was at times willing to take on guys. He is also willing to chase and his speed is good. If he was willing to plug some gaps and let Kirksey roam, he might help. But I wonder if $3 mil could get you someone more fitted to the position.

I loved the dozens of attempts to come up with a nickname for Bigby to mock his reputation as a hitter.
