Now thats a project Id actually like to see us take a shot on Would be pretty interesting, just not sure we do it with a few projects a TE already.

I mean neither of those guys are guaranteed to make the roster either. And I dont think that Mathews will be a lock an any of the 32 team in the league at this point. But he is a guy who has proven he can make it in the league, and has done so as a pass catcher. Feels like its a good option to try, especially a guy who is going to be coming in as a camp body. Actually seeing as we are already running these projects, he might fit right in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've used a decent amount of draft capital on them these past 2 years so it would be great to get them on the field as much as possible.

Ehh, I dont consider anything outside of the Top 100 picks to be much of an investment. And once again, Mathews has proven his abilities in the NFL. Hopkins and Harris, while Im excited to see what they can do, have proven absolutely nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything 4th round and below is significant to me. Again, I don't hate it, but excited to see what we have. I agree neither have proven anything, but also haven't been given to opportunity to. Excited to see where Matthews catches on though; could be a good story. I think Kelvin Benjamin signed with the Giants in May to do something similar (transition to TE). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flounch Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Pretty good article on ESPN on Stafford. Didn't know Whitworth was the one who actually suggested trading for Stafford to Mcvay. https://www.espn.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/32076314/new-los-angeles-ram-matthew-stafford-ready-win 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw the tweets about DAL clearing cap space by converting part of Zeke's salary into a bonus. It makes sense. I will miss Hekker. Truly end of an era. Next question is, who do we sign with the cap space created? IOL and OLB are my top 2 positions of interest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was all excited for him to have a break out year; the man put in all of that work losing weight and here comes a setback. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
