As soon as we saw the Bahktari release you knew they were signing someone big, now do we get a Safety? I love the idea of Jacobs and Jones on the field at the same time, which should take the pressure off Love.

Mow will this be a bridge from Jones to Jacobs because Jones only has 2 years left or do we redo the contract and add a year or 2.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Very interesting. I've read people saying they have restructured Aaron Jones' contract (can't find a credible source for this yet). So it sounds like Jacobs comes in to replace AJ Dillion. If true, I think this is a great move.

It's sort of a lot to spend at the RB position, but even top-end RBs don't tend to cost a ton. With the cheap WRs, they can afford it as well, for a couple of years at least.

If Saquon Barkley got a 3-year, $37.75M deal for Saquon Barkley with Eagles. What's our expectations for Josh Jacobs and Packers?

Was not expecting this move at all (though last years flirtation with Taylor should have been a clue). Thought Gute would go defense first in FA and make a run at some safeties.

Under Construction!

I like bringing in Jacobs but it's very hard to watch Jones walk out the door.
It truly is a business.
That's one of the reasons all my jerseys are retired players. It can't hurt any more.
Onward.

Zero2Cool (3h) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (13h) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (13h) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (14h) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (14h) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (15h) : Hey i didn't know we could trade picks in fantasy

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Update: Rock has tried a cheese curd, promises it's not his last

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : watch it!! lol

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : you're right, we never did leave, the site just went down :P

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Rock claims to have never eaten a cheese curd

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : We did not leave.

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I would imagine Dallas will resolve this issue with a truckload of money

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : Micah pulling a Myles with trade request

beast (1-Aug) : Packers should make some cheese forks

Mucky Tundra (31-Jul) : GRAB THE PITCHFORKS~

Zero2Cool (31-Jul) : CUT HIM

Mucky Tundra (31-Jul) : Socieltal collapse imminent

Mucky Tundra (31-Jul) : The West has fallen

Mucky Tundra (31-Jul) : After starting off camp with 25 straight made field goals, Brandon McManus has missed one

Zero2Cool (31-Jul) : But it should be stable

Zero2Cool (31-Jul) : It's probably gonna be slower.

Zero2Cool (31-Jul) : We're gonna just full go on to the new host.

Zero2Cool (31-Jul) : What crap. Site issues galore

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : if PH dies, there is packerpeople com available

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : database is on new host, eventually website will follow

Mucky Tundra (30-Jul) : Zero, regarding Ewers, you are correct.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Sadly, this might be our life for awhile. I could put it on another host, but seems it was slower, although more stable

beast (30-Jul) : How long will it be down?

beast (30-Jul) : RIP site 😭

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site will die, I have to restart it.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Quinn stinks. Lot of underthrows. (my guess)

beast (30-Jul) : How did Quinn Ewers effect where Golden was drafted?

dfosterf (30-Jul) : All I've experienced was late at night or early morning. I just figured you were doing something in the background

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site sure seems to be down more than up

dfosterf (29-Jul) : 50 cent hookers? I'm moving to Green Bay. I thought it was just real estate that was more affordable there. 😂

Zero2Cool (29-Jul) : Sure seems site going down more than 50¢ hooker
