Lol

I kinda wish they would have just said screw it and eaten the whole $100 milly this year.  Then again I haven't looked at the specifics and maybe that would have foreclosed on signing Willis.  In tandem, I like it - I imagine the Willis deal will be like 3 years maybe with a 4th year option.  It makes this year interesting, gives them a mobile QB behind that bad o-line, and if it doesn't work out they'll draft a QB in 2027.

Good for him to obliterate the Center market. $27M a year...damn.

Basically, the Raiders traded Crosby to Baltimore for Linderbaum and two firsts.

Smooth looking jumper. Some athleticism too.

Quote from: Elonsmusk on March 07, 2026, 08:15:56 AMStandard, dumb post from you.  Great post from Tower.  Chase and Ben have been warriors, and great reps of MU.  Both had great moments in their careers along the way.  Chase was absolutely clutch in our Round of 32 game against Colorado to send us to the Sweet 16.  And Ben hit many important 3's during his career and worked to become a very good defender, despite being undersized.

 

Agreed that both kids are nice guys. Ben gave it his best. Chase played a step down from previous years. As a preseason BE pick he played poorly in too many games, costing the team many losses. He wasn't clutch.

Totally agree.
The best chance to retain Nigel and Stevens is to show them you are willing and ab$e to add the pieces that will allow them to win next year

Quote from: Dish on Today at 12:23:54 PMCoby Bryant to Chicago, really liked him in Seattle.

Not gonna lie: I wish the Seahawks had kept him. He excelled in Macdonald's system. That contract would have been pretty reasonable for them to absorb. They did just re-sign his backup, Ty Okada, who played well when either safety was injured.

Interested to see if the Seahawks now retain CB Jobe and/or WR Shaheed. I know they have prioritized locking up JSN and Witherspoon long-term, and those will be huge contracts.

You mean his head blew up.

I both like and dislike the money Linderbaum got. Raiders had money to spend and good to have him under center for Mendoza. It's just a lot for a center (I just don't value it as a premium pay position).
