Benjamin to sign.....Mack out then in ?
-
Did I not use cut and paste of the spins out of context to Pro Bowl $? Look who's talking - do you read? The flow of discussion brought you to a need to clarify we should sign Benjamin but not give him Pro Bowl money? Sounds like someone needs to take his own advice about reading what has actually been written. I've said it more than once: if we are this close to signing him let's remove the last minute nitpick and get it done. I've never said let's get ridiculous and empty the cap on him so you didn't need bring up sensationalize it to Pro Bowl $ to make your point seem stronger than it has been. I can't help it if you only saw a Taylor Gabriel equivalent to Benjamin I captured in the cut and paste.
I guess I just dont understand what you're saying then.....when we repeatedly say "sign him"....but "dont overpay".....then you respond with long diatribes arguing the point...
So....I can only assume you want to over pay....otherwise, why keep debating it?

How about - I'd like us to re-sign him too Flugel unless you've noticed me saying - hey, let's drain our cap on him. Did I? Let's pay him Pro Bowl $. Did I? Let's pay him what Pittsburgh pays Antonio Brown or what Cincy pays AJ Green or Atlanta pays Julio Jones or Dallas is paying Dez Bryant. Did I? And what was wrong with me pointing out what we're wasting on free agent WRs with only part time, limited or diminished skills when Benjamin offers us a role as a dangerous return man plus where he elevated his game to as a WR in spite of all the changes in QBs, OCs, playbooks throughout his brief tenure here? Who really knows what he can be in a full time role if we put something decent on the other side of formation, which is why I've refrained from racing to a conclusion of whether he's just a slot or # 2 WR at best. The results in 2015 here without anything to brag about on the other side of formation says he was our #1 WR overall, which assures me he could be a really good #2 WR here if we did have a reliable #1. You know my frustration with this WR Corps.
You were lecturing me on things that didn't require it if you read where I was coming from since I joined the flow of discussion. I always give you way more respect than that so yeah I'm a little disappointed with your need to grandstand me. You're better than that and you know it. We've never struggled with the golden rule my man so why start now?

Um...that IS what I said.....I never responded to you or lectured you on anything until you quoted my comment to Hoorta and then started in, as if you had issues with what I said........simple....just look at the top of the page to refresh your memory
I said....resign him....and dont over pay......then YOU quoted ME and started in......
So, while you think I have issues with your statements, look back and see who quoted who and who debated the others comments....

No problem with you mentioning the overpaid receivers.....its EXACTLY what I said the post before, yet you apparently didnt see that....I only said lets not repeat that same mistake.....we can both agree the team has blown it by overpaying, correct???
And grandstanding you?....please.....nor am I lecturing you.....again, Im just responding to your responses to MY opinion, which apparently Im not permitted to have?....until you quoted me and started in(grand standing me? perhaps?)
we were not even in a discussion until you took issue with my comment to hoorta.........so, in reality, all YOU had to say was I agree we shouldnt overpay....which was my one and only point all along

Okay, I see what you're saying. My bad Mud!

Will Fuller would be great, except I think he's gone in the first round.
Although, if you like Marvin Jones...
check out Michael Thomas.... of Southern Mississippi.
Wasn't invited to the combine....
He could..be there in the third round. He's been compared to Jones.

Falcons to meet Mack ...very interested in him

Mary Kay just tweeted. . .
#browns have expressed interest in #jaguars FA center Stefen Wisniewski, league source says. Mack poised to leave.

I am not of the opinion that that is not much of a downgrade, if at all.

I have no opinion on Wisniewski, but I would like to hear Tour's 2 pennies on this guy.

I believe Erving was plan "B".well, they have to have a plan "B"....
no big deal.
We're now on plan "C" or possibly beyond that.

Bingo. I don't have a problem with that trade-off in the slightest.

Wisiewski is a great option.....plus he plays guard too....they shoulda signed him LAST year, instead of drafting Irving

Tour is much better suited to give you technical particulars.....I can tell you he was a 2nd round pick by the Raiders, when HUE was their coach.....his dad and uncle were both NFL players, so he has good genes.....was an academic all american 3 years in school, so he's smart.....has been a starter every year in the league....1 as a guard and 4 as a center.....and, though not as good as Mack, is a strong run blocker and more than "good enough" to step right in and get er done....(and for a lot less than 10m)(and probably wants to be here more than Mack)(just a hunch)

Agree...
Stephen is not early-2014 Mack grade and ZBS would not be his forte, but in a Power game compared to 2015 Mack, then the loss is minimized. PassPro should be adequate as well. Line calls??? Dunno, but flanked by 3rd year Bito and Greco, I would not expect them to be an issue.
Now need to retain Mitchell, and then we can add Dahl (or some late Day 2/Day new blood) and sleep well.

If Mack can't be re-signed, I like the Wisniewski option.
Tough mauler. Penn Stater like his dad Leo and Uncle Steve.
He's smart, 26, rarely if ever misses a start. Plug him in.

I was going to say "how long has this guy been around"...? Then I see that I am probably confusing him with his uncle.
