Tra Thomas is no Baldinger.  He doesn't throw around baseless hyperbolic praise like it's going out of style.  

I could see Pryor coming in and doing a very, very good job at RG.  Solves the RG problem, but it doesn't address the Brooks cap issue.  

 

Pryor time!

There is no Brooks cap issue.

Brooks is a top guard in the NFL but I have full confidence in Pryor.  I can see him developing in to a nice starter.  Maybe this is a blessing in disguise.  Pryor shows that he is an NFL starter.  Kelce retires after 2020, Isaac slides to Center in 2021, Pryor goes to LG and Brooks comes back ready to roll at RG.  We need Herbig or Driscoll to develop in to a dependable swing lineman because who knows when Brooks gets hurt again.

"Could be nasty" I'm not sure how much praise "could be" is.

explain? 

Hard Knocks is going to be covering both the Rams and Chargers. I wonder how much HBO would pay the Chargers to sign Kaepernick. 

As much as the Brooks injury sucks, I trust the coaches to have his replacement ready and don’t think there will be a big drop off.

The Rams are a possible destination as well. 
 

But right now my money is on the Seahawks.

So I've stated where I stand on the Anthem issue many times on here.  I've asked where the compromise can be found and what can be done.  Maybe the Goodell can work with a team to sign Kaepernick, provided there are no more anthem protests.  I know it will never happen but just looking at situations where you can come to an agreement.  

This isn't intended to start another argument or discussion about people for or against but just trying to think of solutions.

$30m guaranteed isn’t an issue?

That’s highly unlikely. No one is protesting the anthem because Kaep is unemployed.

HBO will not be needing to give people any extra incentive to watch Hard Knocks after this insane year...

So maybe Alshon realized that he was a slow plodding lummox last year and he decided to get himself in super shape

It’s a contract. Brooks is injured. Neither thing nor the two together is an "issue.”

I was thinking the same thing.  JJAW needs to get on that program.  It seems we have all soured on Alshon, myself included.  Wouldn't it be great if he just totally committed to getting his body in top shape to keep his career going?  I don't think we've had a 100% Alshon play for the Eagles yet, granted that was a knock on him coming in.  Maybe he wasn't the snitch (cough Malcolm) and will be OK in the locker room.

If he comes back even if it's October 100% healthy, a better body and ready to go.  His skillset with all of the speed the Eagles have added could be a very welcome.

I wasn't saying that was the reason.

Yep, I think we talked about this back in April.  They have Theilen.  They needed a slot guy.  Also because he's not a burner.

It's why we didn't draft him.

I haven't soured on him yet. I'll let you know after this year. If I'm sour on anyone it's JJAW.

part of the reasons people have been against fireworks shows for Fourth of July out here is due to A mountain is like 50-50 to catch on fire when they do it.

It’s a possibility they had one then too.
