That's true. Well then I guess we can just look at it as "buying" an extra draft pick.

and since we gave up a 7th (plus the 2nd he was valued at) for Kamara, and are likely to get a 7th for AP, it means we got AK this year for a second next year. Good deal

Disagree. It was a bad idea - we could have signed a DT-3, LB, or an OL during that time with that money...

For what we spent, a late round pick was not worth it; get bringing in quality depth behind MI, but that was too much and too much drama...

My Fantasy Heart soars now because in my cash league, I have MI...

Lasco is stashed on the PS.

Never really saw how AP was going to work in the SP offense. Kind of a square peg round hole thing.

From my FA shopping list we could have and should have (horse shoes and hand grandees)

My #1 off season target at RB that fit SP like a glove was and probably will be again in 2019
Rex Burkhead RB 26 CIN NE 1/$3,150,000

Or spend that money on defense
Datone Jones OLB 26 GB MIN 1/$3,750,000
Duron Harmon FS 26 Pats Pats 4/$17 million

Kick in Ted Ginn Jr and we could have signed
Micah Hyde SS 26 GB BUF 5/$30,500,000
Jabaal Sheard DE/OLB Pats Colts 3/$25.5 million

Still not accepting the Ginn

If Ingram goes down, we need another bruiser running back to take the hits. We punish our starting and 3rd down backs.

"Conditional" means we should be pulling for him to do well.

good move all around- we def needed the roster spot with our injuries, and now we are more likely to gamble a draft pick on an LB or O-lineman before the draft deadline

Who are we signing in his place? I want Dexter McCluster or Jeremy Langford.

Trey Edmunds or activate Lasco from the PS.
