All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
That contract is a joke, Jesus one of the highest paid tightends and he's done nothing but block for the patriots. This new market place is begining to anger me. Wade's contract 5yr-15 million is even worse. Below average players receiving nice pay days.

Thats the point. Denver gets the best blocking TE on the best running team. It makes perfect sense and it makes sense if they over spent, he has always been a guy they have wanted. BTW he was a lot more sure handed this year than Ben Watson as well.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Graham is a terrific blocker and he may surprise as a receiver. He is athletic and can get down the seam. He has always been very good running with the ball after he catches it, but he has dropped balls at times. He is a tough guy and a respected lockerroom presence, named a captain by his teammates last year.
The only real concern Denver should have is health, considering how heavily they invested in him. He hasn't played a full season in any of his 5 NFL years, and has had several shoulder surgeries.

Denver has had wet dreams about him since they tried to pawn Lelie off on NE like 2 years ago. Its worth the risk for them. Most people don't see Grahams value because he is a down in the trenches kind of guy, not a high profile 50 receptions guy. I dont know much about Cutler but this move says to me that Denver will only be throwing the ball 15 times a game.
