Looks like Frank Gore is finally putting up his cleats! He better be a first time ballet Hall of Famer... number 3 in all time rushing yards at 16000,

He has been preparing himself to get into the Dancing with the Stars hall of fame as well with his ballet practicing...

All jokes aside, the original typo has been fixed

I know 16k yards is impressive and Gore will get in, but he feels fringe HOFer at best to the eye test. Love the guy, but if he didnt play so long, he wouldnt be a HOFer.

If the Eagles' intent here is to punt draft capital to a year with a QB class they like better, I really like this deal for them.

And if the Saints implode this year it becomes extra tasty.

I'm GM of both these teams in the mock draft. It's like playing chess against yourself...

Tonight I learned that Ray Ray Lewis isn’t afraid to kill a man, but deathly afraid of water. Crazy

Blood is mostly water. Maybe that's why he got rid of the suit!

Horrible news.

Schefter was a dick and pointed out his struggles as a pro in the initial tweet.

Schefter is some kind of asshole

So is Gil Brandt

So is Gil Brandt

I heard Brandt on NFL XM and he was unfiltered. Wondered if another year at OSU might have helped his maturity and saved his life. Also stated he was a great practice player who couldn't put it together at game speed. Rough for the Shazier family.

This should be the last time Gil Brandt is ever given a microphone.

Get lost, shit head.

Amazing that we stick microphones in these senior citizens' faces and are surprised when they say stupid shit.

OverTheCap.com's Jason Fitzgerald believes Lamar Jackson could play under the Ravens' franchise tag for "multiple" years.​

“If I were to put money on it, I’d say this is the ideal situation that ends up in multiple franchise tags before a deal gets done,” Fitzgerald told The Athletic's Sheil Kapadia. Jackson is headed into the final year of his rookie deal, and seems content biding his time before negotiating with Baltimore for a long-term extension. Team officials, including head coach John Harbaugh, have expressed unwavering confidence that they can keep Jackson for the long run. Playing under two consecutive franchise tags -- known as the Kirk Cousins Approach -- would make Jackson a free agent headed into his age-28 season in 2025. Assuming good health, there would be more than a few franchises ready and willing to sell the proverbial farm for Jackson's services. L-Jax will certainly be the Ravens quarterback for at least the next few years.
