Good for him, he’s a very good, tough player who you can count on being out there. I’m betting the Chiefs priced the Pats out on this one, and it makes sense that they would given the teams’ different roster needs.
And if you are KC, there aren’t any comparable offensive tackles out ton the market, so grabbing the best OL makes a lot of sense. I bet will be OT signed that are worse values than this Thuney deal due to the scarcity of available OT.
All that said, that’s a fuckload to give to a guard that isn’t Quenton Nelson.

I think it's pretty safe to say the problem was the fact that those OL were bad at football combined with the fact that they were even more bad at playing football at the position they were asked to play, more so than just the out of position thing.
BB has them all on a Zoom call to streamline the process. Give it a sec.

Based on the reported numbers, we're looking at somewhere tween $30-35MM in space unless the contracts are all uncharacteristically front loaded. This doesn't account for the expected re-signing of RFA JC Jackson. We still also need a C.
I believe they're planning on restructuring both Clark and Kelce to alleviate more cap space.
With all their cap space, what the hell are the Jets doing right now, anyway?
I don’t mind the overall wait and see approach but would have liked one of these fat guys.
They’re gonna panic and pay someone like Golladay like he’s prime Julio Jones.

Ugh, that hurts me as a Niners fan. Bourne is such a reliable third down and red zone receiver. He's also a great locker room guy.
Damn, he was my binky. Not really needed once we went with Judon, but I like Ngakoue alot.
In terms of fit (not contractually etc) this feels like it would be a very good under the radar move. The 49ers targeted him the second most in the red zone after Aiyuk last season and the season before last, he was also their second most targeted red zone receiver. He isn't a stud but he will help the WR corps if the Pats can get him.
The red zone point seems important since Bourne seems to have a similar profile as Jakobi Meyers...except he actually scores TDs. Was surprised to learn today that Meyers has never scored a TD, which seems crazy but less so when you remember he played a full season with Cam as his QB.
I forget the exact stat but he’s one of only a few players to reach 1000 reception yards before 1 touchdown. And I think only player w 1000+ receiving yards, 0 receiving tds, 1+ passing td

“A chance to run it back: Tight end Rob Gronkowski is returning to the Bucs on a one-year deal worth $10 million, @DrewJRosenhaus told ESPN.”

Does anyone at this point have any idea how much cap space we have left? Or is it just impossible to know with so many details on the contracts unknown
This means nothing but my uncle’s funeral was today. He was a STH. My dad gave the eulogy. My dad said something about how he hoped that he’d have Bill’s ear from above today. Crazy what has transpired. I don’t make anything of it but I think it’s been a comfort to my dad.
Steep price for a backup/change of pace guy but he’s good and their stud is making $5.65/hour.
So I think I have seen a few tweets today about "Run it back" -- is that the new lingo for repeating?
You're half right. It means repeating, but I wouldn't say its particularly new
Impossible to know, especially since we don't know what they've done on re-structures.
I would guess that the big ticket items are crossed off now though.
That phrase has been around for as long as I can remember (e.g. playground pickup basketball). It just means to play it again with the same team members (or mostly the same core group in the case of a large NFL team). Whether you can repeat as champions - or even won a championship in the first place - is irrelevant. But it is used more often with teams which have had past success, for obvious reasons.
Thanks both. I guess that's what I get coming from a muscial family, where we'd say "Second Verse, Same as the First!"
I’d rather have neither at those numbers but whatever man, it’s not my job to figure this shit out.
I can't find it now, but I saw one of the beat reporters say they could have around ~$15M left.
Is Carl Lawson good? Jets signed him. No number that I saw yet
