2014-15 NFC North/NFL Thread

[HutchwasClutch]

Reason #37 why the Browns are losers.

3 yrs / $21 mil for Tramon.

I realize this is an NFL contract, but c'mon, man.

Got that right, 7 million per year for a 32 year old corner?!?!  I didn't see what the guaranteed money is, but no way am I going to be critical of Ted and the Packers for not going to that absurd level.  Tramon can still play a high level of CB in the league, but there's been subtle evidence that he's starting to hit the downslope of his career.  And when corners get past 30, the decline can happen in a hurry. 

We'll see, but they were right to move on at that price.  Now they have to follow it up with a smart addition somewhere, and preferably not rely solely on the draft.

Apparently the Packers were willing to do $10M over two years.  Can't blame either side for not making a deal.

Browns offer #19 to the Eagles for Sam Bradford?

Is Chip Kelly playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers?

[4everwarriors]

Bernie Kosar still has eligibility remainin'?

[MUeng]

the pack were smart not to budge House or Williams.  Still have a decent core and can draft wisely.  can't keep everyone!

They could have at least given away an autographed ball from a fan favorite, like Matt Forte. Or Chris Conte.

Four you Bears/Score fans .... Doug Buffone died today.
Didn't know this ... played more games as a Bear than anyone else.

Sad, sad news. He was a vastly underrated Chicago Bear. Personally, I was never big on his "meatball fan" radio vibe, but from just about all accounts, he was an amazingly nice guy who LOVED the Bears. He'll be missed.


FWIW, McMichael and Mannelly have both since passed Buffone's record.

But hey, it's just meatball Packer fans.

I can't believe it.  You found someone trashing Cutler.  One in a million link right there.  Congrats.

Thanks for further proving the point.

You are welcome.

At least Abbredaris made it to day 4 in his rookie season.  Season 2 and he's injured on day 1.  Thanks, Badgers.

Think his chances of making final roster are slim anyway.

[Spotcheck Billy]

It's the Chris Otule plan, redshirt for 2 years due to injuries and hopefully he can bulk up someday
