It's certainly not a question of CJ having enough gas in the tank, but he's just too boom-or-bust as a runner IMO. When you run him on 1st down he still has the speed to take it to the house, but he also may dance behind the line and lose 3 yards. Ivory's a much more dependable runner, but if they want to use CJ as a 3rd down back, he'll be incredible at it.

Damn right with Santonio... Really, Still think they'll wind up with a receiver in the draft somewhere. If that receiver turns out to be a #1 with Decker, Kerley, and CJ2K in the backfield... never mind, you could be right. :) That's a pretty good group of options for Geno or Vick. And guess I'll trust you on Vick, don't think nearly as high of him as you guys do but you guys watch a lot more Eagles games than I.

Speaking of Titans, they declined Jake Locker's 2015 option, which would have paid him the average of the top-10 QB's at the position (No shit!) So this will be a make or break year for that guy, honestly I do like him as a fantasy sleeper.

I think the Titans always thought they had a good line, but really it was just mediocre at best and they really didn't have too many "A+" if any receivers to spread the field for him, only time can tell what a new change of scenery will do for him.

Yeah idk I just think Vick is what's best for the Jets' business for the year, Geno really didn't impress much last year and the whole similar replication of the infamous Sanchez' butt fumble didn't help his case. Having Vick for a year will take the fans mind off of it and good competition is always nice for a young QB like Geno to experience; Tis a similar case with Tampa Bay actually, Mike Glennon was decently consistent but not overly impressive to most (not me I like Glennon actually) but then they bring in McCown who had some good moments last year to warrant a competition for young Glennon to push himself.

I like Jake Locker, he's had some injury issues over the recent two years but I still think he may be worth a risk. Definitely not enough to warrant them to exercise that 2015 option, but enough for them to consider reworking a new contract or at the least re-sign him in 2015 barring a productive season and no more injury concerns of course :).

Hmm, I wonder if Barkley will be with the Eagles next season; I hear Taj Boyd if he drops to their 4th pick may be an option.

Sources tell the Washington Post that it's "unclear" if the Redskins will be willing to meet free agent DeSean Jackson's contract demands.
The Redskins' front office is reportedly in "full agreement" in the decision to pursue Jackson, with two sources telling the post they're "all in." But with just $6.8 million in cap space and tons of holes all over the roster, the dollars and cents might not make sense. The Raiders and Bills both have roughly $14 million in available cap space. Jackson was visiting Washington Monday evening and Tuesday. CSN Bay Area reported Sunday that Oakland is willing to make a "substantial" offer

Ian Rapoport reads this forum lol

"Chiefs and Andy Reid were intrigued by DeSean Jackson, but with limited cap space, can’t match the budding open market. Would’ve loved DeSean."

Love the opinion of a Buffalo writer, who thinks they should grab DeSean just to make their draft selection easier.

I really wish the sensationlist moron who wrote the "one more red flag" for DeSean article after the Chiefs "bowed out" because of cap space would lose his job for being such a dumbass. Because you know for every sensible fan like you or I who knows why KC couldn't pursue him, 8 or 9 idiots just read it and are like "MAN DESEAN HAS BAGGAGE EVEN OLD COACH AND REED NOT WANTED HIM BACK!!!"

Also, fuck the Eagles right now for just sitting back, remaining silent and allowing Swag's name to be slandered beyond belief. They need to man up and hold a presser saying all the reasons they cut him, and admit that the gang shit was a small part of it instead of just letting idiots and the media (same thing right) have a field day with this yellow journalism.

If I'm the Eagles, I'm really, really happy with all this shit going around while he's visiting Washington. But they absolutely should talk to whatever AFC teams are interested just to get him out of their path to the Super Bowl.

Listening to the CBS Fantasy podcast from like 3 weeks ago. "I'm thinking about kicking someone out of my top-3 to put Nick Foles in if everything stays intact" Ooops.

Swag isn't going to Washington lol. He is just putting himself in position to get the most money he can from the Raiders. Washington is another KC Chiefs. They want him, don't care about all the gang propaganda (as I'm sure most teams don't bar maybe New England lol) they just don't have the cashflow to nab him.

@SharpySandow

Talked to my soon-to-be-attorney friend and he says you were correct in that it doesn't matter when the crime occurs, if two people are married they cannot force them to testify against one another.

So it sounds like we just gotta hope it is on tape, but if it was at a casino, its on tape, so this is all for not.

Washington? They've got RG3 and Alf on rookie deals while, outside of Garcon, the rest of their roster blows! Who all are they paying?

11.4 to the franchised Orakpo, 10.9 to Trent Williams, 9.7 to Garcon, 7.6 to Cofield, 7.0 to Bowen (who?), 5.7 to RG3, 4.3 to Chester, 3.7 to Hatcher, 3.3 to Lichtensteiger, 3 each to Lauvao and Perry Riley, 2.8 to Tracy Porter...

There are 3 guards on that list... Dan Snyder at his finest lol

I've heard they have 6.8 million in space, or something like that. Oakland and Buffalo have over 14

I'm expecting Swag will get 5/50 (something that equates to 10 per) with a lot guaranteed. IE if it is 50 total he will see 20+ guaranteed.

And IMO he is worth it.
