Who was #1 and what were his stats? I posted articles about :guys out there" if you fail to read them it's not my fault

Who is out there that was proven better?    The one from GB was worse.

How big of an idiot to you have to be to finally realize not looking for competition and a replacement a year earlier was a huge mistake? Especially a year later when they won’t even roster the guy recognizing how bad he has been. But nope..,there was no need to even bring in competition last season. GM of the Year….had to be correct on everything last season.

How do you know they weren't looking?

I don't give a crap about the 9ers,I want a good punter for the Eagles

So do I...who is out there?   Let us know.  Give a name or two.

Did they make the SB? Maybe their punter kept them out LOL. IDK why you have such a block going on here,I don't follow them nor watch all their games. The fact we waited TOO LONG is really no mystery to anyone else. Just admit we waited too long and move on LOL

I don't claim to be an expert in the punter market.  I'm just pointing out the obvious....that our guy wasn't the worst. You add a yard to his numbers and he is average.   My point remains consistent... we don't know what is and what was out there.  Obviously there are 3 to 6 other teams worse off.  

Maybe the market shifts in a year or two and we see a bunch of rookie punters.... if so, that's kinda telling.

Remember it’s going on the third season for this 

Very telling of the market on punters.  Should be a lot of college kids coming into the league in the next few years.

What’s obvious is our P going on his third season doesn’t have to be protected from being poached. Nobody else will take him.

Right...just like nobody else is snatching up the other guys.

Maybe after four years of a crappy P they can find a legitimate P

Start scouting the college kids

Yes....right after I called my boy Chip for a ride.

Every other team isn’t poaching our P from the PS. Should be a very clear sign of reality for you.

Should be a sign that teams don't switch just to switch.   

What I'm saying if you look at it...it seems to be about a dozen good punters.  The rest of them there are all around the same.  It's a weak position currently.    

Even your 49ers guy is worse statistically.  Had more punts blocked too.  

Apparently according to GB... it takes a lot of time to adjust to the snaps.. maybe that's why you see so many teams keep all these crappy punters?

Scout the punters for next year....we have two 2nd rounders.

Named 9 captains. Seems ridiculous! Are they completely sure the long snapper shouldn’t be considered a captain as well?

Taking too much shine away from your boy???  

Btw...on some sad news....Hugh Douglass lost his son today in a car crash.  

Hugh is on from 10m to 2pm during the week on one of our local sports talk stations.

https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/matt-araiza-1.html#all_kicking  Here's Hams guy Araiza over 51 avg. There is more to it,like how many inside the 20. He was originally a kicker then changed over to punting,so if Elliott got hurt,he could do some FG's for us

He has a civil suit coming up.   It's been reported the Eagles have no interest. I'm not sure anyone wants to touch him at the moment.  The underage stuff is pretty serious.  

Around the league... no Jones,Kelce questionable... no Bosa.. New England losing guys.  Burrow,  Kupp,  Kittle all dinged up. Going to be a fun season. 

Love the meme...Bosa and Jones holding out for 30 mil....Reddick way underpaid but having surgery so he can rush back to play.

That is a part of the job for any pro team. Just routine job description I’d say.

There was a guy from the Squeelers,who got cut. i can't reel off names,maybe he is one of the 4 we brought in

Well did my FF draft Monday 12 team league and I got stuck with the 7th and 6th pick(snake draft)

overall team ended up solid 

QB- Fields, Danny Dimes 

RB- Eleker(no clue how he fell to me at 7) Najee, Kamara, Dalvin Cook(

WRs- St.Brown(Lions), Dj Moore, Toney, Michael Thomas, Thelian

TE- Taysom Hill(banking on him getting snaps everywhere) thinking of picking up Laporta(lions rookie TE)

K/Def- I play matchups but for drafts sake I took think Seattle’s K and Miami D

IDK if it's illegal for NFL teams to "solicit" undergraduates??? I know many declare for the draft before they are seniors,but can teams actually "talk them into" quitting school? I mean maybe they can say "when you decide to declare we'd be interested" or can they say "quit school now and we'll hire you"m IDK the legal part

Had 4 drafts,picked 8,8,9,10. In one I got JJ with pick 9 (ok thanks!!!) on the turn I got Josh Jacobs on the same team,also got Fields at QB and Andrews at TE(lol). Bills and jets D.I usually get my BU RB before WR 2 drafting that late,then I will pick up another stout D in round 9 or 10. Then when the byes go by I can trade a D for a top player(usually a WR since I am weak there after taking RB 3) I need. I love DJ Moore and although I didn;t get him Fields will use him extensively and if he does,you get the double whammy,nice pairing there
