    Hate to say it but we lost Hughes to get McCoy.

    I know everyone wants Iupati and Harris and Hughes.

    But Harris is gone, Hughes is getting big money elsewhere and I doubt we are landing a lineman at Hughes money.

    McCoy was our big splash.

      I get the feeling that Hughes was/is testing the market no matter what we offer, and he should. He would be crazy not to.

      I might be in the minority here, but i feel like we could pick up a cheaper player like Trent Cole and get just as much from him.

        Regardless, we did not lose Hughes in order to get McCoy.
        McCoy is getting his contract revised and his cap hit will be lessened.
        If Hughes walks, it's because he will be paid exorbitantly elsewhere.
        Harris is an avg lb who knew Rex's system. The Jets overpaid to keep him.

        I suspect there will be more splashes and surprises.
        This is not the old OBD.

          I guess will know the answers in a few days.

          “It breaks your heart when someone leaves and you don’t know why.”

          "It may be raining but there's a rainbow above you"


          Former President Donald Trump early Thursday touted the results of a new NPR/PBSNewsHour/Marist poll showing him ahead of President Joe Biden by 8 percentage points among independents.

            How exactly is it that we ever had Hughes to lose?
            "'Clean up your room.', 'Stand up straight.', 'Pick up your feet.', 'Take it like a man.', 'Be nice to your sister.', 'Don't mix beer and wine, ever.'. Oh yeah, 'Don't drive on the railroad track.'"

              I would expect Shady's cap # to eventually come in just a little higher than what CJ is looking for.

                It would be a real surprise if Spiller ends up getting anywhere close to what McCoy will get with this new deal they're trying to work out.

                  I don't thimk Spiller will get as large of a deal overall, but I think the cap hits could be similar.

                    Spiller is getting a long look from numerous teams.

                        Local NBC Ch.2 news at 6 said McCoy may be getting a new deal with cap relief and Hughes is getting close to signing back up.

                          Why do you, and so many others like to cut people down?

                          Does that make you feel better about yourself?

                          Do you feel more powerful by being a jerk?

                          Are you self projecting your own deficiencies on others?

                          Does that make you happy? You don't seem to be a happy person, Mr. Miyagi.

                          No matter how rich or poor, the happiest people win.

                          You're the loser.

                              I think we keep Hughes with the restructured McCoy contract and probably get a middle grade FA with that money.
