    The money is definitely low risk, but does it match the expectation?
    he's a unique signing because I would argue that he should be expected to miss most of his games despite being the most talented rb we have.
    If I'm Jim, I assume I have to load manage and understand I'm burning a roster spot for a few elite carries.
    under no circumstance do I allow myself to depend on him to be RB2. So what that means for me if I'm Jim is that the other 2 backs (not JKD or Gus) better be quality to sustain a run game if it came down to those 2.
    and for an offense that leans on a rushing attack, I better LOVE vidal and Spiller if hes the 4th back.
    I'd hate to have to reach into the practice squad for someone to give significant carries.

    JMO.

    If JKD goes down for the season, I don’t want to hear 1 shocked voice. To say "Joe tried to address RB" won't be good enough for me, especially if you already know his history-being IN Baltimore. If our RB stable isn't talented enough without JKD, and you knew Roman was our OC, that imo will be a huge strike against Trader Joe.

      Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
      Let’s win one for Mack.

          I don't hate him, I just feel he wasted three years of my fandom of this team and since i am older now, that irritates the shit out of me. Id like us to win 1 before my time is.up..

            Amen.

            I had that feeling with Lynn as well, and McCoy before that.

                Apparently he "felt something". Pump the brakes on the Slater extension

                  Agreed - he doesn't seem to be able to track the ball well at all . . . . . . . . . not a great trait for a deep ball receiver

                      Jeez... so many players now not practicing or "off to the sideline"
                      I'm really hoping it's heavy leaning on the cautionary side.

                      Maybe they're just instructing everyone to cease practicing if they feel ANY sensation that might be even a bit indicative of tightness.

                          Tear the damn cables and steps off Half Dome. Quit encouraging idiots.

                          I'm the ********** and I'm here to help. Still leaves me cold. Usually a huge ton of public money goes into a project that takes forever and helps no one outside of the contractor.
                          High speed rail anyone? Protect an ex President maybe?

                          Currently Cal Fire is engaged in saving lives and property with inadequate resources. They need more trained personnel and equipment. Like retardant bombers. How about them?

                          Let those who want a dangerous adventure have what they seek.
                          For heavens sake!

                          Your fine with the US ********** spending trilliions of dollars in telling the rest of the world how they should behave.
                          You thnk Big Govenrment in that case is competent and out to do good.

                          Your fine with the US treasury bailing out elite institutions every decade to the tune of trillions of dollars ..... you have assets that need to be reinflated.
                          Suddenly, the notion of 'dangerous adventures' goes out the window.


                          Suggest upgrading a feature that hasn't been updated in 90 years, and that maybe a few bucks should be tossed around, especially after another young person slips and dies:
                          suddenly, principles are involved and people here go apopleptic.

                          Sure, increase the budget of Ca Fire - why not? I can think of more than a few agencies who could use bigger budgets to do better jobs that are worthwhile to our society.

                          The question is, why are state and federal administrations so woefully incompetent in planning and administering any project what-so-ever anymore?

                          They use to be capable back in the day., in an era where the ********** didn't use convicts to fight forest fires .... we employed people at decent wages.

                          Its not people I'm voting in.
