Vikings trade with the Eagles for Sam Bradford. Vikings are giving up a 2017 1st round pick and a 2018 4th round pick.
Bradford racks up a lot of first round picks for having done practically nothing. The Eagles gave the Rams one to get him.

Bill McAllister is being replaced by Jamie S. if anyone cares. The show may be listenable now.

Bridgewater reportedly had a 'significant' non contact knee injury today that halted practice and visibly disturbed teammates.

Somehow I got stuck with 3 lions in my fantasy draft... Ebron, Abdullah and Tate... In past years I drafted them on preseason hype... Maybe this year will have a more positive opposing effect I believe Marvin Jones had zero receptions on Saturday night. I'm not sure where that puts your Tate stock watch.

I think the Northville area is just totally fucked from a traffic standpoint. I've never lived anywhere like this. All the fucking red light intersections, traffic everywhere. People going 60 MPH down dirt roads. Just a total cluster fuck. I've lived in Chicago too - this is worse. Try driving in and around Philadelphia

I forgot that you have to be on the league page and not the draft page to get in. Other than not knowing for sure what I would have done at #4 in real time I think I drafted pretty solid after that. If you take stock in fantasy draft grades (which I don't) the rest of you are in trouble.

I'm not saying the Chargers aren't cheap or crappy but if I got fired my employer isn't paying me shit. Bosa or any other primadonna athlete shouldn't be any different.

A usual Lions showing here. Hot garbage. Three personal fouls and three false starts. Two from Decker I think. A bad Stafford INT.. It's only the pre-season lmao…. Many Lion fans downplay the hot they have seen so far just wait …. That was preseason game number three. Supposedly a dry run for the regular season that could have your starters playing into the third quarter. If that is what this team is it's gonna be a long year.

It's about offset language. They're actually trying to make him sign a worse deal than anyone ever has that was drafted in his slot. I dont believe that to be true. From a few different sources basically have similar reports. Here's a few...
Wednesday saying it had provided Bosa's representatives with its best offer, which Bosa's side has declined. According to the Chargers, the team offered an initial signing bonus that is the largest any player has received in the last two drafts, more money in this calendar year than every rookie but second overall pick Carson Wentz, and the largest payment and highest percentage of signing bonus paid to any Chargers player since the implementation of the current Collective Bargaining Agreement.
www.sbnation.com/2016/8/8/12402198/joey-bosa-contract-holdout-san-diego-chargers-why
Bosa was in line for a guaranteed four-year, $25.9 million contract with roughly $17 million in bonus money. The sticking points from the Bosa camp were how much of that money is paid out early in the deal and the use of offset language that would allow the Chargers to potentially recoup some cash if Bosa is a bust and gets cut.

Suck it up, sign, and don't be shitty.

It's love/hate here with Flacco like it is at home with Stafford and he's got a ring.

Joey Bosa still holding out.... The San Diego Chargers' best offer yet? It was rejected by former Ohio State Buckeyes DE Joey Bosa. It included a signing bonus larger than any player has received in the last two drafts. And he would have made more $$$ than all but one other rookie in 2016. What's the deal? Is he pissed that the Chargers took him? He wasn't first over all so he doesn't deserve to get paid higher than anyone the last two drafts.

I'm in a town in Alaska, about an hour out of Anchorage. I went to a pub last night for dinner and saw a dude that looks like a 30yr old John Popper sitting across from me. For lunch... I walk into a completely different brewery and the same fucking dude is sitting across from me. I think it's destiny... I need to ask him to take me panning for gold The hook brings you back. I ain't tellin' you no lie.

Meh, it's an above average play on words... I give it 7/10 Pollux still hasn't gotten that he is the worst poster ever. He probably doesn't know that a group of lions is called a pride. Which is why it didn't make sense to him. I do know what a pride is. I dislike the use of the term in marketing for the Detroit Lions. I thought I read something in the offseason stating that they were changing it for 2016. I'm disappointed to see that they didn't.

Either he is trying to drop out, or he is a Hillary plant. There is no way someone is this stupid. The sad part is ~half the voting population is THAT stupid, and loves the guy! BTW: I think I am now Pro-prostitution and Pro-Drugs! The thought did cross my mind. He was a Democrat and seemed to be pretty chummy with them in the 90's.
