Oh c'mon you were just railing about the divas.I'd be a dick Owner if I had the coin and draft their ass .let them sit for a year - that rarely works out for them
there is a huge difference to me in signing a $100 mil contract and being a diva vs being a young kid just entering the draft who is being up front that he doesn't want to play for your team. huge difference. don't sign the dotted line, take the $100 million and then be a huge jerkoff when you don't get exactly what you want or things aren't going your way. 

I've got no problem with a player who is entering the draft saying he doesn't want to play for a certain team. Team has simple solution: don't draft the kid or draft him and trade him.

 Everyone the Browns draft seems to be a bust.  The Lions have had talent...and just keep wasting
Your right they have been crappy evaluators of talent.I wasn't kidding we could scrape together a pretty good scouting Dept from this forum.I can honestly say when ass wipe Haslem drafted Johhny Football or even Brandon Weedon not one of us  were pumping our fists screaming  Hell ya.More like Oh No Weeden turned 29 his rookie season.It really makes one question how these people got to where they were.Sad thing is Belichick wasn't much better

Bull jive same diva - go work for a living,the league has rules to keep balance or at least a chance of it.Fine you don't want to play by the rules - sit out bitch,can't let the tail wag the dog.It's usually the Elways,Mannings - let them sit and no coin might change their minds

Rooney rule strikes me as a dumb rule. It’s entire purpose was to pander, buy good PR.

NFL billionaire owners are gonna hire who they damn well please. They didn’t become billionaires by following rules, taking orders, or being told what to do. These are literally all trust fund douches who inherited money or type a personality captain of industry types who are egotistical maniacs. 

Flores suing the NFL just going to enhance the rep he has as difficult to work with. He’s still have a job in Miami if he wasn’t at war with the GM and had he bought into Tua as the QB of the future even a little bit. Dude never wanted Tua and he never kept that a secret within the organization.

Yeah, but there are those of us who look at things differently.  Hopefully the players themselves do too.  Joe Thomas is a winner, period, end of discussion.  Doesn't matter to me if he ever got a ring.  Many players fit that category.  You give it your all, become elite at your position, that's all you can ask.  Everything else is out of your control.

And I'm sure we don't need to pity someone who probably isn't crying into his beer in his solid gold and diamond-encrusted pint glass over it anyway :57:

I don't think OBJ's time with the Giants was contentious, whatever his preferences.  He routinely seemed to be fine there when interviewed.  Who knows what's going on in his head, but OBJ was always a loud personality.  Nobody ever wondered what was on his mind when he was in college.  He wasn't a problem, but he wasn't a quiet guy who blended in either. 

What's up with Eli Apple?  Dude roasted the Giants and Saints, then insulted the fans, and then went a step further to trash the city of New Orleans and then say the food is horrible.  Now he's trolled the Chiefs players, offering them tickets to the SB.  All I really know about him was watching him with the Saints and the playoff games with the Bengals.  Nobody should be a douche, but when you're not even good enough to earn some passes, you really should try harder to do the bare minimum.  And by "bare minimum" I mean....you know....not insulting and picking fights with fans and insulting their cities. 

Guys who quarrel with their peers within the league or management may have some growing up to do.  When you can't stop yourself from blasting the fans who make your career possible, you have major character flaws. 

ETA:  And if you dis NOLA's food, then you've left "douche" and crossed into "dumb" territory.

what's up with Eli Apple? he stinks. I still don't know how he was a top 10 pick just 5 seasons ago. He's already on his 4th team. 

Jeff Okudah also kinda sucks. What's going on with high draft pick OSU CB's? 

Lattimore is pretty damn good though. Even if he gets away with quite a bit of PI.

Man I need to make a trip to NOLA soon, it's now been 4 or 5 years and we normally get there at least once per year.  So much great good.
