You suggesting the team will be called the Washington Bud Lights next season?

[Monkeydad]

I don't think so.

And the numbers look better. That logo belongs on a golf shirt, not a helmet.

@ANONEMouse compared to a lot of the 15,000 name suggestions, even the Washington Bud Lights sounds a bit better....LOL

Everyone in the franchise that was part of picking Guice royally fucked up. Pretty embarrassing.

This isn't about our team, but I mean there had to been tons of obvious red flags for a pro team to know about.

Maybe maybe not. Big programs cover up the misdeeds of athletes. Everywhere. Takes some real sleuthing to find out the BS lots of times.

Arrogant GMs and coaches can always convince themselves talent outweighs character or that they will keep him in line. You don't win drafting criminals.

LSU did have a big coverup...I posted a huge article on it here not long ago.

Guice wasn't the only POS player they were protecting.

Big money. Coaches making $5M a year or more, and universities making more off football programs than tuition, care about winning and keeping the gravy train rolling, and you thus have tutors do all the schoolwork and fixers that coverup all misdeeds. Remember Carroll the mess he left coming to NFL? Then of course when the shizznit hits fan everyone plays dumb and feigns being apalled.

No big surprise, but definitely a good news. He has some down games every now and then but overall he's an absolute monster.

Question why is Payne's 5th year option ($8.529m) more expensive than Vea's ($7.6 million in 2022)? I thought these were based on where they were drafted?

Doesn't it also factor positional pay, on average or something? I don't know.

Found an article on it - https://www.google.com/amp/s/profoot...und-picks/amp/

Basically Payne met a playing time criteria for a bump that Vea did not. Article lists the criteria and who met what.

Players who have been voted to two Pro Bowls on the initial ballot will receive the same salary as the franchise tag at the position. One Pro Bowl nets the transition tag and players who have reached certain playing time levels — 75 percent of snaps or greater in two of their first three seasons, an average of 75 percent or greater over all three seasons, or 50 percent or greater in each of his first three seasons — will get the average of the 3rd-20th highest salaries at their position. Any other player will get the average of the 3rd-25th highest salaries.
