UDFA from their practice squad.. Spill the beans for 1 weeks paycheck scenario.

I might have been down with Kiko years ago when he was chewing steroids like Pringles and productive. He's dabbling in them now and is just mad all the time and getting nothing accomplished. Pretty sure he launched himself at a QB last year and then got his ass kicked for his efforts.
Kiko is a diamond mine in an ice storm hard pass.

You sure he's getting nothing accomplished?? Last year he had 125 total tackles(good for 10th in the league-also 2nd most in his career), 3 forced fumbles(most in his career), 3 int's(2nd most in his career) and 6 passes defensed(most in his career). Also only 29 years old(just turned 29)...I'm not sure exactly what you consider "getting nothing accomplished", but those numbers sure say he's accomplishing a lot.
125 tackles, 3 ff, 3 interceptions and 6 passes defensed? Dude obviously sucks.
Because stats always tell the whole story.🙄
I actually watched him play with the Eagles a few years ago, and he stunk. Unlike wine, I doubt he's getting better with age.
Because you're qualified to evaluate a NFL football player. GTFO
He’s a journeyman vet, I worry more about him being Billy Bob’d by his next head injury. It was just a year ago he got lost and ran to the wrong sideline after a tackle.
That's fair... but to poop on a nice stat sheet and quantifying it by stating you watched him play is laughable.
Meanie.
I see the Browns traded a 5th and 6th for Bills Olineman. I get the feeling Dorsey is trying to make a major change in culture or vibe as much as he is trying to win football games.
If I still had to pick Schneider over Dorsey I'd take Schneider everytime. Dorsey has some Schneiderbrenner in him but it doesn't matter if he makes the right decisions. This will be an interesting year to watch. If Dorsey's moves hit, they very realistically could run away with the AFC East.
Dorsey's problem right now is that he knows he has a less accomplished Jerry Jones as an owner who wants results NOW. He's trying to win at any cost, it's likely going to backfire because...well...it's the Browns. Schneider built a SB winner, Dorsey hasn't, so yeah I would also take Schneider also.
Yeah, I forgot about Haslam who could be the worst owner in the NFL.
I guess he wasn't "flowing down the line". ****ing Wizard.
Brandon Marshall cut.
Yes please. Sounds like he was hurt in OTAs. I'd still pick him up if he makes it that far down the waiver wire.
maybe so, maybe no. don't we have enough LBers like this?
"Marshall was signed this offseason and was expected to win one of the starting linebacker roles. However, he just hasn't looked explosive and struggled in coverage."
He's dinged but he's not a scrub or unknown who's dinged. He was slated as a starter. I'd pick him up.
Since when is GB good at MLB? Pick the dude up!
It’s sad that we’re looking at Malcom Smith and Brandon Marshall as needs to upgrade ILB but that’s just the reality of where GB is at LB today.

C'mon. AJ Hawk and Brad Jones were our starting middle LBs only 5 years ago. It hasn't been that long. 
I thought Brandon Marshall was OLB. Did he move inside?

Pack had Tremaine Edmunds if they wanted him. Did they trade down 3 slots? Edmunds was one of those 3 slots and the Pack took Alexander.
Not saying it was the wrong move, but did I want Edmunds. I'll be checking out his play.
I'm just hoping Jadeveon Clowney stays the F out of the NFC Norris.
I’ve got zero regrets about Alexander or Edmunds. Imagine where GB would be today without Alexander? I just wish King could stay healthy.

He did now.
Seahawks and Texans having dialogue with trade discussions involving Jadeveon Clowney, according to NFL sources. Clowney prefers Seattle or Philadelphia. Texans need offensive line help. Seahawks also have extra second-round pick from Frank Clark trade, also Jarran Reed suspended

Clowney to Seahags...

Schneider really fleeced the Texans on that deal, wish we would’ve made a push to get him years ago when Thompson started to slip
Houston gets a 3rd round pick and two players for Clowney. Clowney has to sign his franchise tag in Seattle. This means he can’t sign or discuss an extension (legally) with Seattle until AFTER 2019 season. Maybe that’s a quiet conversation that’s already taken place. Which again, would be against league rules.....
All we know today is that’s a steep price for what might be a 1 year rental.
This is a deal that’s not going to present a actual winner or loser for a while unless Seattle has a deep playoff run this year.
Heres what I do know. Being an offensive lineman in the NFC West in 2019 is going to be pure hell. Every team in the division has filthy ability to get after the QB in short order.

Thompson started to slip the moment Schneider and Dorsey left Green Bay.
I have to believe the Seahawks and Clowney have a wink and a nod deal beyond 2019. In any event, Seattle committed a felony with that trade.
I’m assuming there is a back channel agreement after 2019 but nothing is guaranteed in the NFL.
Important to remember everyone thought Percy Harvin was going to be the final piece of the puzzle when Schneider gave up a 1st, 3rd, and a 7th in 2013.
Seattle went to back to back SB’s in 13 and 14 but that’s almost entirely due to Schneider drafting Earl Thomas, Richard Sherman, KJ Wright, Bobby Wagner and Russ Wilson and signing Marshawn Lynch for peanuts (that and a GB collapse but that’s for another thread) It had nothing to do with Harvin. The Harvin fiasco has hurt Seattle for years. And then Schneider gave Harvin a massive extension. Defensive players on Seattle had just as big an issue with a weed smoking locker room cancer getting a massive deal as they did when Wilson signed his new contract.
Thompson won a SB because he nailed early drafts and signed Woodson for nothing. Schneider followed a similar blueprint.
So yeah. I’m not sold anyone fleeced anybody yet. This one has to play out for a while.
Jachai Polite cut by Jets. While a 3rd Rounder, a bunch of mocks, especially the early ones, had him in the 1st Round.
#Packers traded OL Justin McCray and a 2020 Draft pick to the #Browns for a 2020 Draft pick.

You have to be a real turd to get released as a rookie if you're drafted in the 3rd round. Like worse than Khyri Thorton.
