The. Bills. Trade. With. Us.
The Ravens traded us our starting LT.
If those two teams will trade with us, anyone will. Unless those teams are really stupid (i.e. you KNOW that Sean Peyton never would. Because he's shortsighted mongoloid) [Reply]

And teams are throwing everything they have at Kelce down there. Gray's nice in space and really carving a niche for himself, but he's not finding that level of success in tight areas. Worthy isn't going to be a red zone guy when fully formed.
JJSS was a good thought there but he's JJSS.
So you have Hardman on gadget stuff and...Watson? {shudder}
Mahomes ain't throwing TDs this year because there's just nobody to throw to in the end zone these days. This could be really beneficial in that regard.
(That said, man I have enjoyed just lining up inside the 10 and telling the OL to punch some dudes in the mouth so that Kareem can find a seem and finish it...)
Fuck it we’re doing Corndog every time on the goal line.
That is, if Hardman doesn’t trip like a dunce like he did last week [Reply]

I'm really hoping that pick we give them in return is the 4th and if that is how it works out, this theoretical deal is not bad at all for us.

I like it!
Can they please just send L'Jarius back?
I don't mean for football reasons - I just feel so bad for the guy. He was a great player, great teammate and just fantastic dude. Really good story and everything you'd want to see happen to guys in this league.
And he had to play for that shit-house franchise to get paid? Poor dude. He absolutely, unquestionably deserved to get paid. I just hate that he had to go to that hellscape to make it happen. [Reply]
DeAndre Hopkins has 11 regular season games to get up to get fully comfortable within the #chiefs offense and with Patrick Mahomes. By the time the postseason arrives, I'm told there is a real chance Hollywood Brown could return. Which would make KC's it's most complete at the…

People traded with the Patriots all the goddamn time. It was usually teams in the same position as the Titans.
When you’re bad, you’re bad, folks. Newsflash: if an NFL GM’s own team has no shot at the Super Bowl, they don’t give a shit who wins it. They’re not fans. It doesn’t matter to them.
Non-Chiefs fans are going to be pissy with the Titans and they’re just going to look like stupid short-sighted assholes. Again. Because like someone else said, the Chiefs have driven everybody to complete madness
It was widely reported that Veach contacted the Raiders but they said they wont trade within the division. Thats understandable.
We have recent trades with the Bills and Ravens for crissakes [Reply]

I think he'd fit this offense extremely well. Probably better than Johnson.
We just can't afford him. It is what it is.
What about Zay jones. I’d love a big swing like Diontae but in terms of realistic, this is a guy we can get for cheap and he’d immediately contribute. Think we both agree Elijah Moore is also intriguing [Reply]
