    If that were true his contract wouldn't be a joke amongst league writers.

    And i would gladly trade him for an actual B- talent if we could bamboozle someone.

    I still like Turner. I have hope that he can be healthy and play well next season.

    I really hope this is right. I think it is, but I'm not sure whether I'm just being a homer or not :)

    Bump, my good dudes.

    What a disaster of a signing -- and this board knew it from the giddy-up.

    Well, you were actually half right. But every FA Olshey has lost out on has been a blessing in disguise.

    I still don't know what Olshey was thinking. Set aside the fucking ridiculous contract for a second. How did he think he'd fit in with this roster?

    Bump!

    Nearly 2 years to the day!

    Dark days indeed. Like always, S2 knew more than Olshey on Turner.

    I am always in the "the guy in charge knows better than random geeks"-camp. This thread is a kick in the nuts.

    I feel like history has proven time and time again that " the guy in charge" doesn't always know jack shit.

    Agree to a certain extend. NO get a lot of crap for moves that haven't been made for example. But what do we know? Same for Collins. At first the negativity was really high before everybody calms down.

    I still think Collins was the wrong move. He may turn out to be a damn good player.... and Dame might choose to peace the fuck out by the time that happens. This team is on a serious treadmill and we keep adding 19 year old rookies.

    Not to spark rumors... but I drove by his place last night. There was a 12’ box truck in the driveway. Loading up furniture that sold possibly?
