It almost like trusting Rich McKay to oversee an incompetent GM and coach was a bad idea. Seriously does McKay have pics of Blank fucking a minor?
Basically this and when we get a mediocre 2nd rounder for him next year, Thomas Dimitroff should never be able to eat in peace ever again. at least NO got playoff runs for their salary cap splurge we maxed out all our credit cards and all we have to show for it is a box TV and a 1994 Toyota Tercel
I’m not even mad at TD for paying Julio what he deserves to make. I’m mad that the NFL created some imaginary number that’s fucking us just because some owners took a bath last year during a goddamn pandemic.
I honestly can't believe the NFL owners did that to themselves. Why not try to spread it out over 4 years, or hold back increases? Just a massive lop off the top make no sense.
Thanks to Shannon Sharpe, any leverage we had over other teams in trade negotiations have been torpedoed
the fact that there wasnt a single curse word uttered in that conversation makes me think it was pre-planned. he 100% knew he was on live tv
The fuck are y’all on about. TD and company sucked but it’s the NFL fucking us by setting the cap as they normally do off of revenue despite the fact that there was a global fucking pandemic. Julio is compensated appropriately as a future hall of famer.
I totally agree but TD still left a huge mess behind. The NFL has a made a shit ton of money and would make it all back if they had kept the cap where it was the previous year.
we didn't have any leverage anyways, everyone knows our cap situation and that we are screwed - but this definitely killed anything we might have had. feels like we'll be lucky to get a 2nd back. it sucks ass but I'm convincing myself it's not that bad considering his contract & age. but if we were going to do this then why didn't we just blow the whole thing up and rebuild by drafting Fields?
It’s such a cocksucker move, although not surprising at all, for assclowns like Schefter and Rappaport to “report” that team officials around the league don’t think we’ll get a first for Julio. What incentive would they have to leak that info anonymously? Just zero fucking critical thinking.
It really is fucked up because it’s not like it’s fact. Teams overpay and overreach for guys all the time.
Our starting edge players are likely Dante Fowler and Barkevious Mingo. Sure would be nice if we could parlay Julio into a useful front 7 piece
You'll enjoy your blocking te and handful of magic beans we get for Julio and be grateful Indianapolis gave us that much
