The Panthers have officially named Bryce Young their starter.

I’m hoping for 1-16.

Unfortunately, the NFC South is a pile of sh!t.  I think Dalton will start a few because I find it hard to believe Young starts 17 clean.

ESPN  commentators are crying all day every day because Saquan Barkley will only make $11 million this year.

98% of fans have no sympathy.

The value of RB has drastically dropped because the passing game in the NFL is king right now.

Until teams start getting back to old school run the ball, play great Defense and control the clock type offenses and prove they can beat the pass happy offenses then the RB value will continue to go down.  Right now OL might me more valuable then RBs in the league.

The other problem is that the Franchise tag for RBs is dropping but the NFLPA isn't going to do anything about it because that only affects a few players in the league.

The new rules favor the passing game so running is now complementary.  Also teams are finding good backs in the later rounds and since they have short careers why not change every 4-5 years.

I remember back in the 80's they were starting to say that the TE was becoming obsolete. Everything is cyclical (or is that cynical ? :D)

Well you don't have to worry about the Bears giving up cap and draft picks to the Vikings to sign Danielle Hunter.  He signed a 1 year $20M deal with the Vikes.

Salaries are ridiculous. No one person is worth that. The sports machine as we know it will one day implode. All the money ultimately comes from the consumer, one way or another. At some point, the consumer will be tapped out...
