    Yes! They're getting paid a freaking shit ton of money to be available to their team. They're supposedly professionals. Professionals do what they have to do to be available. It's called being responsible, mature and unselfish.

    understandable but he doesn't look ready and they have 2 vets who have had success in the league and really their roster is stacked to win outside of QB and o-line

    That is not the main purpose of the vaccine. The main purpose is to prevent severe outcomes. Which it does remarkably well and which holds up well over time.
    The secondary purpose or benefit is to make it harder for you to get the virus and spread which it also does well but the efficacy of the secondary protection wanes over time and does not protect as well against Delta as against the original possibly because of it's high viral load which is 1000 times greater than the original.

    Players at athleticism and speed-dependent positions don't generally improve into their 30's.

    ha ha clinton dix was released by SF. Might be a good depth pic up. still only 28 and fills the role of "centerfield" safety since we only have 2 healthy safties heading into week 1. Seems his issue is motivation. maybe saleh cna get him going again. in 2018 he was a top 15 safety in the NFL according to PFF. in 2019 he had an ok season but had a monster game against his former team. in 2020 the cowboys signed him but he was beat out for the job so they released him as he was too expensive for a backup so he wound up not playing. the niners brough him in this offseason and just waived him.

    Anyone watch Xavier Jones RB Rams this preseason? He got dinged up late in pre-season but was quick and elusive in games I saw. Cut today w/injury.

    Clinton-Dix is a guy who always flashed when I'd watch him. I haven't followed his career too closely in the pros but it was always strange to me how no one seems to want him the last few years.

    But you did, and Lord are we going to hear about it. It's hard to find a thread where your not writing short stories about a prediction you made coming true.

    Yaboah had a good game and you create a thread about how you predicted his success (was cut) and said it all off season.

    1000% seriously done with motherfuckers who spend an hour on twitter and think they know better than to take the CDC's recommendations.

    STFU and get your fucking shot.

    (i had to temporarily take DWC off ignore to see what he was blathering about...back to the phantom zone with you, bloviator)

    I think Artie Burns could be a good target for us.

    I think the point is even the vaccinated (see Ryan Tannehill, the Yankees and many, many others) can still test positive and may not be available. Your availability argument is bunk bro.
    Also vaccinated players/people can still infect others. It's just science....

    With that being said, IDGAF if a player is vaccinated or not, all I care about in this forum is how said player can help the team. And Cam can stay away!

    QB Ryan Tannehill among nine from Tennessee Titans positive for COVID-19, sources say (espn.com)

    9 vaccinated Yankees players and staff tested positive for Covid — here's how that happens (msn.com)
