Gotcha - sorry. The thing is - I am sure if he ends up in Tampa this will be the conspiratorial take by many. The "league" is just doing this to help Tom Brady

As for the Chargers - we already have a 30+ year old CB with injury concerns. Do not need another one

I’m not really interested in Gilmore. He’d want more than than I’d offer. Not looking at over 30 players.

Jaylon Smith looked very good against us.

Jaylon Smith looked very good against us.

Reading some stuff - it seems to be two reasons Smith was released
1) his playing time diminished
2) the Cowboys were worried he would get injured this year this guaranteeing next years salary of 9.2m

Granted, I liked the move the Bears made for Grant with the Dolphins - trading for a pick

Somebody, NFLN or ESPN suggested a player like Brandon Cooks as a fit for the Chargers for a late round pick.

If there is aveteran OL - like would Marcus Cannon make some sense if Houston is looking to trade to save cap space

I thought Jordan Phillips from the Cardinals - but he is pricy and hurt

The Chargers have the cap space this year and right now, are top 3 next year in cap space (and thats including Bulaga) - so they have some flexibility I think to take on a few million for a player that can take them up a notch.

When I was 20? Sure. 30? Maybe a couple, not as much. 40 - no, youngest gal i dated when I was 40 was 26 and she was idiot young. I don’t find 20 yo idiots interesting by then. And now - at 59 - no way.

But I don’t care about a coed grinding on him in and of itself. he’s cultivated his public image of a moral family man - so its a tsk tsk type thing for me personally - I’m used to public figures of morality that are lying hypocrites.

but to have all his players see on SM that he ditched his own team after a loss to get a lap dance … fuck that. Thats bro code shit.

I was just joshing you of course. But I am totally with you on this. And btw, I also agree that young woman aren't interesting at our age. When I was in my 20s and living in San Diego, it was totally different. I was all about chasing every nice looking young female who came into my orbit. Now, when I see a woman that age I see my daughter. I play on a coed softball team with young ladies in their 20s and 30s, and I am like their 2nd dad. I'm more attracted to their mothers. So, yeah, that vid of Meyer with a young woman grinding her a$$ in his crotch and his hands down there is pretty pathetic, for all the reasons you state.

[Topcat]

Patriots don’t have to pay him as he was technically not on the roster due to pup. I hope this crap catches up with belicheck sometime. He does bush league stuff like this to players a lot

And speaking of Belicheat and suspicious injury-related moves, don't forget IR-Gate:

"2014 falsified injury report allegations

After becoming free agents, two former Patriots players in 2014 alleged they received false injury designations during their time in New England.

Linebacker Brandon Spikes said his IR placement for a knee injury just before the playoffs was bogus. He felt he could have easily played through the issue and that the team wanted an excuse to keep him off the field.

"The team's decision to place Brandon on injured reserve was not a mutual decision, nor need it be," his agent Gary Uberstine said at the time. "Brandon had every intention to keep playing throughout the playoffs, despite the pain he was experiencing throughout the season. We never had a single conversation with the Patriots in which they threatened to release him if he didn't accept the injured reserve designation."

Cornerback Aqib Talib, meanwhile, said his hip injury designation in 2013 was incorrect. He claimed his quad was the actual source of pain, but said "that's how they do things" in reference to the Patriots."

I've noticed our games are broadcast in the PNW this season. Herbert effect. Keep expanding thr fan base.

Not sure why there's green in Oklahoma though.

[Formula 21]

How do they end up with cap relief? Wasn’t his contract guaranteed at game 1?

Mayfield.

His per game salary was not guaranteed since he was on PUP. Or maybe only the games he was on PUP was guaranteed So the Patriots get the benefit of not paying his pro-rated portion the rest of the season. So that is how they saved the $5m of cap space. They are still on the hook for close to $9m of dead cap space.

I’m not really interested in Gilmore. He’d want more than than I’d offer. Not looking at over 30 players.

Gilmore traded to Carolina for a 2023 6th round pick

[Bolt4Knob]

Gilmore traded to Carolina for a 2023 6th round pick

The Panthers had close to $20m of cap space for this year so they had the money to take on the contract. And all it cost was a 2023 6th round pick

Now, I am good with the Chargers not trading for Gilmore, age, injury history plus they have a 30 year old injured CB. That said - if they continue to be on an upward trajectory, combined with possibly having comp picks next year (and I realize you cannot trade comp picks but it does open the door for your own 2022/2023 picks) - the Chargers should be players in the trade market if players become available that would help the roster.

I mean, if the Falcons continue to stink - how good would Cordarelle Patterson for a Cond'l 5th look on this roster. Chargers could be picking near the end of the 5th round. The way Patterson can return kicks - would be an asset.

Brandin Cooks for a Cond't pick - he would add a bit of speed to the WR room. Though Guyton is pretty fast.

I have mentioned Marcus Cannon
