Teams are waiting until May 12th so they can sign the remaining ufas without losing draft compensation. He is an idiot for suing before that.

I 100% agree, he is a good safety and deserves to be on a team. However, that does not mean it is collusion.

NFL owners don't want to deal with the negative attention that comes with the guys that protest, it really is that simple. They aren't all secretly meeting telling each other not to sign these guys though.

After all the bs with the uncapped year from awhile back...have a hard time believing it's a 0% chance they didn't meet and say exactly that to each other.

I'd love to have Reid opposite Collins.

No shot in hell that piece of shit Mara signs off on it, though.

Posted in the General Forum, but figured it's relevant here. Glad I decided to part ways with supporting the Redskins completely.

Sounds like this came about because of complaints from some Dolphins cheerleaders. I imagine in the coming weeks the NFL is going to have another full blown crisis on its hands.

Yeah, on re-reading my post that wasn't really clear what I meant. I imagine it'll come out that every team with cheerleaders probably does some incredibly dubious shit to them.

Well it's bad enough that the team I root for is already outed as pulling some shit. Agreed that it wouldn't be shocking in the slightest if pretty much all the teams have been engaging in similar shit, though.

The NFL is going to change its kickoff rules to try to keep the play in the game

The committee’s proposal is expected to be completed by Monday and includes recommendations delivered by special teams coaches during a meeting Wednesday at the NFL’s offices in Manhattan. The changes, if ratified by the owners when they meet later this month in Atlanta, would take effect during the upcoming 2018 season.

The proposal being formulated Wednesday bans players on the kicking team from getting a running start on their way downfield. It eliminates all forms of “wedge” blocking, where multiple blockers link together, by the receiving team. It requires eight of the 11 members of the receiving team to line up within 15 yards of the spot of the kickoff and bars hitting within those 15 yards. It keeps players on the kicking team from going in motion pre-kick.

I agree it not that bad of a pick, especially for a team who plans on winning right now.
