The NFL Thread

Yep, sure is.

 

Baltimore re-sign Ladarius Webb to a 3 year deal worth $10 million.

New England have also re-signed DT Alan Branch and OL Cameron Fleming.

 

Anyone going to the thing in Edinburgh? Steve Smith on Instagram in a kilt.

 

That event was good, quite long though and parts dragged on. Knackered.

 

I did have a gimp next to me who cheered everything and shouted the answers to every question. He was wearing a Steve Smith jersey and got a * high 5 off him and I didn't. The rage.

 

This season needs to hurry the * up!

I'm glad the Saints didn't AP, he is just an older version of Ingram. We need a Bush/Sproles type back which Sean Payton has already said. I can't see us drafting McAffrey though and it doesn't look like we are getting Butler. Both our first rounders need to be used on defence.

It popped up on my twitter feed yesterday it was a week to the day that The Rams received the #1 pick from The Titans for 2 ones, 2 twos and 2 threes Absolutely mental! I hope we start seeing some decent trades soon.

I've also just sorted out my fantasy draft day. We are going pitch and putt & air rifle shooting. Then going to the local park to play some activities, field goals, punting and passing into a bin. Before going to the casino for a game of poker before drafting. Highest points throughout the day decides where they would like to draft

So yeh I am excited about this season. I just hope the Saints can have a winning season, for once.

 

Lynch agreed with the Raiders.

They just need to sort compensation for the Seahawks.

He could be class behind one of the leagues best O Lines.

 

Out of interest do any of you use the NFLUK forum?

 

Aye sometimes. It's deid compared to what it used to be though.

 

I was thinking about joining it but that's why I ended up not. It runs very slowly as well.

 

It's shockingly run. They installed a forum update right before the start of last season and once the update had been installed loads of members could no longer log into their accounts. A lot of members obviously thought '* this' and haven't been seen since. It was only through sheer stubbornness I kept chasing them up to fix the issue with my account but they weren't exactly going out of their way to be helpful. It's a shame because it used to be a decent forum.

 

Ffs that's a pain in the * especially since there doesn't seem to be any other UK forums for NFL. Only alternative is the US forums and the people on there are way too knowledgeable for me .

 

Och you're as well signing up to it. It's busy enough during the season and, like you say, it's somewhere you can interact with other UK NFL fans.

 

Aye I may as well. Think there's any chance of them ever fixing it?

 

About the Jernigan trade, looks like a win-win considering Baltimore were unlikely to resign him. Falling 25 places in the draft to replace Logan with a younger, better fitting player is a very good trade-off.

 

It's working fine now. It's just that they lost a lot of members by doing a site update that was a balls up right before the season started. They could have done it in the summer when there was nothing happening, but no, they did it right before the season started and cocked it up. Daft.

 

That's me just signed up. * me place is deserted .

 

Todd Heap accidentally runs over his 3 year old daughter with a truck, the wee girl died. I don't know how you would ever get over something like that. Tragic.

 

* *, that's brutal. Great big guy too.

 

Butler has signed his RFA tender with the Patriots, Pats also sign Bills RB Mike Gillislee to an offer sheet and sign James White to an extension through 2020 season.
