I mean, wasn’t ‘can he play oline’ also a dig at out oline? Its all lighthearted humor to me. Penning is supposed to have a mean streak, so to me a bit of light hearted ribbing from the fans should make a mean guy want to fight more than a bunch of stuart smalley type positive motivation and expectations that the rosies dole out.

If our coaches can fix Penning and keep Ram healthy, I think they are well on their way to Sainthood. If we dont have confidence in divine miracles, we better draft oline.

The constant fighting is besmirching our beloved site, lads. I know a few posters that have left, hopefully only temporarily, because of it. I would too but like those two gay cowboys I just don't know how to quit this site.

Okay, I will try to give contrasting takes in a less confrontational manner, and hopefully that wont descend into so much back and forth if everyone can accept that others takes may contrast.

Me too.

Thanks Bako.

Ok. The “No Taunting” Rule goes into effect. I hope horse sh*t Memes and Gifs in response to people set to IGNORE will fall under this category.

Re: Official 2024 Free Agency Discussion
 

Generally I think aging or injury prone players entering the final year or two of a big contract are not smart to trade for. If they are cut, they may be affordable then. Deals are often backloaded where the final year or two only makes sense if the player is currently very healthy and young, and if they are getting very old and having to learn a new system it may have always been a stretch even if they are healthy. Sometimes the final year is slated in to drive up the average and make the agent look good. If the Chargers want to trade Bosa for Lattimore, ok, similar deal and we need Bosa’s position more. But independently, i dont think either is worth much.

I think there is more upside to going with a younger player who had someone blocking them on the depth chart on their previous team or going with someone cheap. Ultimately if Turner has similar talent to Bosa, and both have been injured the last few years, and we have to hope for a miraculous return to health, why not at least bet on the younger cheaper guy return to health if neither is likely? Ok I know Turner has been injured more than Bosa, but maybe Davenport is a better comp. Despite his great past, the last few years Bosa is just a slightly older Davenport.

Tyler Boyd - WR

You’ll need an experienced replacement for Can’t call Mike.

Boyd is an affordable option.

Also, go ahead and draft another receiver or two later in the draft since our scouts are really good at finding talent late.

Now, that is an agenda that I can get behind!:smokin:
