100%. Really fun player with a high ceiling and is a testament to his mental toughness and focus. I wouldn't want him starting the first year, though. Rookies hopping in are burdened with the league's expectations and just feel like they're more likely to risk injury.

There are some good gambles in later rounds and Darnold can be a bridge guy, absorbing the shock of hitting the league.

FWIW, QB free agency was also ass. The best contract was given to Kirk Cousins so it shows that the real highlights are already locked up in franchises.

Still feels weird to not even see an offer rolled out but looks like they were already looking onto the next. I suppose it's a business, first and foremost. Good FA for the Eagles though.

Yeah, RBs aren't in high demand like that but kinda wild to not even pitch him. I suppose they must've known where he was at and opted to go for Singletary as a result but the Giants are so bizarre to watch.

Giants didn’t even offer him but fought to keep Daniel Jones. That org is so fucked.

You’re probably right but Wilson is a competent quarterback still. He was better with the Broncos than he gets credit even if the results were abysmal.

[–] garrett@infosec.pub 3 points 1 year ago

I know the Broncos are down bad after Russell Wilson and Payton drained some picks but is Jeudy really only worth a 5th & 6th?

I don’t really disagree with you at all but repeatedly reminding us all that you’re “not surprised” isn’t the savvy commentary you think it is. Especially since it’s historically been the case that any service you pay money to has said “no, you own your content”.

The marker has just moved gradually on this with companies slowly adding more ownership clauses to their Terms of Service in ways that aren’t legible to average consumers. Now they’re cashing in on that ownership.

I don’t have an Android but thanks for the links regardless.

While you’re not wrong, the social contract we’ve adapted to is that paying means you have some sense of ownership. It’s unreasonable to expect folks to read every Terms of Service with their legalese. Perhaps the new reality we need to accept is that there is no such thing as a good actor on the internet.

This looks badass. I do wish there were better mobile apps for a lot of these media servers. I’ve been mostly sticking to Plexamp for now cause of it.

 

There were fears of DL Daniel Ekuale having a torn bicep which look to have a sort of confirmation with him headed over to the IR. Best of luck to him in healing up and it's another blow to already ailing defense that has still maintained high quality.

The Patriots are signing quarterback Will Grier to their active roster off the Bengals practice squad, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.

Grier was drafted by the Panthers in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft out of West Virginia, spending parts of two seasons in Carolina. He got his only NFL action as a rookie, totaling 228 passing yards with no touchdowns and four interceptions in 2019.

Carolina released Grier before the 2021 season, but the Cowboys claimed him off waivers. Grier then spent the 2021 and ’22 seasons as Dallas’s third-string quarterback, but never saw any game action.

After the Cowboys traded for Trey Lance in August, the team released Grier, who then signed with the Bengals practice squad, where he has been for the past few weeks. This also means that Cincinnati will need another quarterback along with backup Jake Browning if Joe Burrow can’t play on Monday.

The Patriots now add Grier to their team as a third stringer behind Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe. New England will face the Jets on Sunday and is also set to play the Cowboys in Dallas next week.

A bit of a tangential one but I figured we all needed a lil' boost after this weekend.

New England’s No. 1 running back was not spotted during the media portion of Friday’s practice.

 

“I talked to Isaiah yesterday. He’s in good spirits,” Belichick said during an appearance on WEEI’s The Greg Hill Show. “Recovering, obviously, but we’ll just take it day by day. Certainly seems a lot better today than it looked like Saturday night, so that’s a good thing. It was good for him to fly back with the team, everybody seeing him. He’s got a lot of support here.”

 

Preseason is a good time to look for diamonds in the rough and I think this might be one of them, even if it's too early for "Malik Mania".
