Something positive for a change, hold on we released Pryce yesterday, if we can re-sign Warren over the weekend that'll be 3 great moves!

And it certainly wouldn't work with the 30% rule that will be invoked if there's no CBA extension.

Nice. Now get G-Money done.

His option bonus would count towards it, so I'm pretty sure it's good. I doubt the league would have approved it last year if it wasn't.

Good point, forgot about that.

Who would have thought that a converted tight end that struggled mightily early in his career would turn into the kind of key player Lepsis has?

Alex Gibbs, that's who.

actually Popps, his real development has come in the Dennison years.

I am glad he is back & that he took one for the team in restructuring.

Good point, though it was Gibbs that thought we should try him at LT in the first place, no? Either way, definitely a surprise to me that he turned out as good as he did.

Just read where we set a franchise record for fewest sacks against this year.
The line deserves some major kudos for that, but so does Jake.... not that he'll ever get them. He's just a dumb oaf on a short leash.

Heard on the news tonight that it's a 4 year deal worth $25 million. No specifics as to the signing bonus or anything else as of yet.

I guess a penny isn't worth quite as much as a CENT...
