6th round? that's it?
Remember, we gave up no picks for him.
The Lions will assume his salary.

So other than the lost time and little return on our investment in the first 7 games, Dallas actually comes out ahead for the 2nd half of the season.
If I'm not mistaken. the Vikes may be losers unless compensatory picks can include his contribution to more than one team.

The is all Will MCClay.

I’d bet that big Mike and Nolan have lost all input on the roster.

the DL is a mess.

It was mind boggling why Crawford was on the team last year. It is absolutely insane that Crawford is collecting $9M this year. It is plain to see that Crawford is a stinking, putrid, steaming pile of garbage.

Crawford has to be Jerry's illegitimate son, he has done nothing to deserve being on roster last 3 seasons.

Especially at that salary.

You can make mistakes. Everyone will make mistakes. Just cut your losses and move on and you will be fine. That is what we did here to great success IMHO. What you can not do is forever double down on your mistakes hoping to eventually break even. This is what we are doing with Crawford and Jaylon and Gregory. The other thing to avoid is the no win scenario. That is what we are doing with Zeke and Cooper and Lawrence.

We need to take a hard look at Tyrons contract.

I was thinking the same thing. I bet the team knows who spoke to Slater and those are the people that will most likely be shipped out if possible.

Would be critical to get rid of anyone that is not 100% committed to the Star. Gotta build with players and coaches that are putting bricks into the house— not removing them.

Essential that they are ruthless in applying the correct standard to EVERYONE equally— regardless of contract/status.

Use this season to find out who your warriors are, and who has the potential to grow into a warrior. Draw the line in the sand, communicate expectations clearly, and start sending “me first”/negative voices on their way

Fingers crossed but I honestly couldn’t see any team giving us more than a bag of Cool Ranch Doritos for him. And we’d have to buy our own dip.
i'd do that deal in a heart beat.
2 f/a signings i was most excited about are 2 of the biggest duds.
