Did you learn a new word?

Meh, who knows. Maybe they'll let the CBA die after 2020 and the "big" contracts will no longer matter.

Personally, I like the salary cap, but you never can tell with these things.

He is still available:

Is Perriman going to test FA? Will Rosenhaus turn him into Pryor 2.0?

The source on the story is Tony Grossi. That means there is no source.

Who knows, but right now there is a live presser where he said plans for him.. so I guess we'll see.

Neither will be available.

Unfortunately, you are right. I had a little hope for Lawrence, but Dallas just said they are going to keep him.

Btw-------Gregory got suspended again and Irving is probably going to be suspended, too.

Right. So there is no way Lawrence will be leaving.

Can you clarify this for me, Daman? Who's holding the presser, and what's being said about his plans?

Perriman is signed with Rosehaus so that would be reasonable speculation.

ANTONIO BROWN
WR, PITTSBURGH STEELERS

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports the Steelers "prefer" to trade Antonio Brown to a team in the NFC.

Speaking Wednesday at the Combine, Steelers GM Kevin Colbert said "interest has grown" on Brown in trade talks. "Ideally you’ll like to trade him to someone you’d never play," Colbert said. "But if a team comes through with the best compensation you have to weigh that." It's hard to see the Steelers trading Brown within the AFC North or to the conference-rival Patriots. The Panthers, 49ers, and Packers have been talked about as potential destinations in recent weeks.

You mean after he's released from jail?

Former NFL star Adam 'Pacman' Jones arrested after being suspected of cheating at Indiana casino

He will be held without bail until he appears before an Ohio County judge Thursday, officials said.

One-time pro football standout Adam "Pacman" Jones was investigated for cheating at an Indiana casino before becoming "combative and disorderly" during his arrest Wednesday, authorities said.

Jones, 35, was booked into the Dearborn County jail shortly after his 3:17 a.m. arrest at the Rising Star Casino in far southeast Indiana, according to the Indiana Gaming Commission.

Gaming agents were "called to investigate a patron for possibly cheating at a table game," according to a statement from the IGC. The commission confirmed to NBC News that the patron was Jones.

"IGC responded to the table games room, and upon arrival, the patron immediately became verbally combative and disorderly with IGC enforcement agents" and casino employees, the statement continued.

Jones was booked on a single count of suspicion of disorderly conduct, punishable by a maximum penalty of 180 days in jail and a $1,000 fine.

He had originally been arrested for — in addition to disorderly conduct — public intoxication, intimidation and resisting arrest, the commission said.

The agency didn't immediately say what game Jones was playing. The casino offers a variety of games, including blackjack and roulette.

The Dearborn County Sheriff's Department is holding him for prosecutors in Ohio County, Indiana, where the casino is located. Jones will be held without bail until he appears before an Ohio County judge Thursday, officials said.

Jones has played 12 seasons in the NFL, most notably for the Cincinnati Bengals, where he played 100 games over eight years.

The defensive back last played for Denver, getting into seven games this past season before the Broncos released him in November. He's not been signed.

Jones has had multiple dealings with law enforcement over the years, most recently in early 2017 when he allegedly head-butted a police officer, officials said. He pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor later that year and received a sentence of time served.

What am I missing, bro? I don't get your reply?

There are some really bad Dudes in the NFL. Pacman is one of them.

I had forgotten about the suspensions, your post reminded me. I'm just saying with the looming suspensions, there is no way Dallas will let Lawrence get away. Still had him on the wish list but didn't put 2+2 together til after I read your post.

Thanks. I get it now. I was just confused by the wording, or more likely, my lack of reading comprehension.

No worries bro, round these parts my response could have easily be taken as sarcastic bs. Did kinda read that way.

Everyone probably knows this, but he too had an issue with beating a woman in a hotel room. Super talented guy but I'm not sure how many guys with histories of hitting women I want on the team.

Nick Foles will be a free agent.

I would make that trade. No doubt.

Yeah. No doubt. He'd be a huge piece on the DL.

Seems cheap. Probably too cheap.

If Dorsey can turn Danny Shelton in to Justin Houston, build the statue already.

Houston's annual salaries for the next 2 seasons are as follows:

2019: $15.25 million
2020: $17 million

That's big salary to add to a team's payroll, and I don't know that many teams want to do so. Of course, with cap numbers always on the increase, and 2/3 of the league with "enough" room to take on that size contract, who knows?

If I'm the Browns, I definitely make a play.

That's a lot of money for a guy who hasn't been very healthy or productive over the last several years. I'd still trade for him if the price was right. I'd guess he'd go for a fifth round pick because of his contract and age.

I'm also shocked that no one is worried that he has never played in a 4-3 defense. Maybe we are making progress.

I'd love to get Houston here. Of course I'm a little bias though. #godawgs

"Three to four years down the road" = being able to afford Garrett and Mayfield.

The time to go all in is when you have your franchise QB, DE, and CB all on rookie deals. Go win the darn thing right now, because tomorrow is not guaranteed.

Thank God Dorsey understands how this all works.

This is open to interpretation.

I agree .. the window is open NOW ....

He can’t be stupid but NOW is the time to sign the big money DL/pass rushing DE if one becomes available ...

u can structure there contracts to take the BIG HITS in 19 and 20 so u have the cash when u need it on 21, 22 and 23 when its time to reload on Bake, MG, Ward, Chubb and others ...

We have PLENTY OF CAP SPACE TO DO BOTH right now ...

like u said .. its a good thing KJ understands all this ....

Get er done KJ ... THE TIME IS NOW!!!!!

PS. All this talk about having a QB and others on rookie QB’s and other key positions .. makes a ton of sense and i agree in theory .. and it is CLEARLY A HUGE AVANTAGE ... no denying that ...

The last 5 SB’s have been won by QB’s not on rookie contracts ... 3 of them the pats ... 1 the donks led by Manning and the Iggles last year with Foles as their QB ..

*shrugs*

I agree ...

I said in our PM’s with U and a few others ...

I expect one big money signing and a few on mid level guys and some to improve the bottom of the roster ...

We have plenty to do both and save for the re-load in 2 and 3 years when our guys can start walking ...
