My assessment of taking Luck off of the PUP in relation to the Brisett trade was wrong. My bad peeps for spreading unnecessary fear.

Not totally your fault.

The public statements,. non statements, "I haven't seen him throw'....."We're doing what's best for Andrew'   

"Its above my pay grade"

 

confusing

 

I still think THEY (coach GM, owner) don't know if Andrew is playing

Naa.... I respect your opinion friend, but this has been the plan all along.  In other words they did what they said they would do and if he wasn't ready to come off PUP then he would still be on it.  Look forward to watching him play in a few weeks, or inside of 6 anyway.

True..but they have NOT said he isn't playing at LA

He'll likely go to the Practice Squad in a day or so...

 

 

but we were already paper thin at DB.....  they must be bringing some DB in, otherwise, that was a spot you probably had to hold a space or 2 for injured guys, so I would expect more, rather than less, thn the normal quota of DB's early on

Yep, I was thinking the same. Stupid NFL....

 

So the NFL is stupid because fans don't like this?

 

Do you know who asked for this?     NFL coaches.      

 

This is happening because the coaches and GM wanted it this way.

 

Maybe they change it back....    but I wouldn't be so quick to blame the NFL for something that may not be broken and need to be fixed...

I think you have a big cut 20-25 after 3 weeks....but leave rosters at 65-70 so you can look at waiver pickups in the final pre-season week...

 

....It makes the last pre-season game almost a tryout..guys you picked up against guys on the 'bubble'

That's how it was until this year.... coaches and players both asked for the change

Didn't there used to be 3 cuts?

 

..I think it changes because how can a cut player show what he can do to a new team unless he gets one game to play for them.

 

It may all change if they cut the number of pre-season games, though

.......and that aspect worked....because nobody played anybody they really valued (except the Bears..who played Mitch Trubisky?)

...but this cut down freanzy..might be something GMs want to change going forward.

Its almost like draft day

    • Agreed   Freeland will come back 10-15 lbs stronger (I believe)  I view him as our next man up at Tackle   This kid will grow as well, possibly taking the RG spot in the future   Great pick up
    • Love the pick   He may be on the field by mid year at RG
    • In run blocking he would be similar to Fries in that with a little angle he can do a good job getting push. Fries is over matched trying to drive block because he isn't a bender. This guy isn't a bender but carries maybe 15 more lbs.  Gonc has been very successful as a pass blocker. If he can get some push in short yardage of which we desperately could use improvement at RG, and he proves an upgrade in pass pro over Fries, then yippee. To get that improvement this year in the 3rd round would be a real plus.  According to him his big toe injury was serious. Said he was 85-90% at his pro day and had only started training 3 weeks before. The 19 reps seemed to be a personal best. Yikes!  He had 21 college starts in 39 games. He was crossed trained and played LT, RT, LG, RG. This was from our new oline coach.   A big plus, and he apparently is very quick off the snap.   He is big but not so light on his "toe", so I believe he would get humbled playing tackle. I doubt worse than Freeland was last season so...  I'm impressed with his demeanor, and he is consider tough.   I give this pick a B.  Pray for the toe!!   
    • Its REALLY interesting that Ballard could have drafted AD at 46, but were confident enough that someone else wasnt going to grab him while we traded back?   Gutsy move?  Nerves of Steel?, Lucky?   I think I would have just stayed put and taken AD   But then again......  Im just an old dude clacking away on a computer   STILL love the pick    
    • I watched a video breakdown on him (before we picked him) where the analyst comps him to Lamb. I wish I could remember the analyst's name
