Is AK alright?

The guys don’t seem to be having fun as a whole. Always playing from behind.

Keep him off the return duties.

The draft is over. What would your solution be today, with the current roster, if we want to win every game?

Is it any different than what is being employed so far?

Me, I would bring back Tate. Not expensive, I am sure we have a player that bounces back and forth off of the team. It would solve the issue we have atm.

That's the problem, they had advanced notice. That would be applicable if it was an injury vs a suspension they were aware of. So why didn't they solve it?

They did the best they could with cap and roster constraints. Could we hve done better?

We drafted a RB and brought in what, 3 or 4. Great job of exhausting all our options but there is nobody else. MI can't get here soon enough. My hope was that someone else would emerge and we would be in the position to trade MI but that boat has sailed. Sucks because we are Aunt Jemina light on picks next year with not much hope getting a 1 back. AND I KNOW, MI is not a 1 but the point was to BUNDLE, BUILD picks to trade up for a 1.

Your point which everyone else thought was pretty damned stupid.
