Sounds like he’s looking for the most money, not the best fit.
Can’t blame him, the NFL is a business.
I doubt we are interested in a bidding war for his services.

We are back.

Pads were on Thursday & WRs Matthew Golden (shoulder) & Dontayvion Wicks (calf), DL Colby Wooden (shoulder) & G Aaron Banks (stinger) are all practicing.

Three DNPs: WR Savion Williams, CB Nate Hobbs & DE Lukas Van Ness.

I would not be surprised if we beat Phily

And then lose to a shit team shortly after.

GB plays up or down to the competition.

I have serious concerns about the Flower

We aren't the only young team that is inconsistent this way. Watch the Patriots a few times. And every team in the NFL has ups and downs. Some weeks the chiefs look abysmal. Last year the gripe was we couldn't beat good teams. This year the gripe is we can't beat bad teams. Basically fans over react like 12 year old school girls to every loss. The team is working through injury issues on the OL and talent issues at CB. This team absolutely can still compete for an Owl.

It has been a very peculiar year so far. When you beat up on bad teams, but lose to good teams, there is always a lingering question of whether or not the team is really good enough. I do not see that as an issue this year. The only question is if they will play to their potential consistently enough to make a playoff run.

Al models depicted are eighteen and over.

In case anyone's wondering.

Savion Williams is back.

Lukas Van Ness and Nate Hobbs are the two players not practicing.

Here’s Wicks going for a second consecutive day. https://x.com/i/status/1986860018218528814

I think KYPack would describe Savion Williams as "raw as a turnip." He doesn't seem ready for the NFL quite yet.

With Kraft out, I'd think Wicks would be more helpful than Williams.

It will help this team to get Van Ness back. He was having a good year, and I think if they do that Cheetah thing, he's a little more stout against the run than anyone else they'd put in the inside.

I take it Banks is over his stinger, then?

I don’t have a good feeling about this game.

I don’t have a good feeling about this game.

I was more worried before the Panthers clawed the shit out of our guys. For whatever strange reason, I’m feeling very optimistic about Monday night.

[MadtownPacker]

Asante strengthens a weak room. You don't worry about egos, you sign him if you can land him for the right price. He isn't great in run support, but we need him if he can return to form.

Edit: Ya know how the other guys can stop us from signing Samuel.....do their fricking jobs better.

Agreed, fuk their little feelings. A good slap across the face is just what we need. Should even hire a known coach to “guide” Pepe at critical moments so he can feel the pressure too.

I see opposing pass offenses being the bigger problem so hell yea sign him.
