so this is what it's like not to have a draft pick "hold out" thru training camp.......a welcomed "change of pace", IMO.
Another good job getting guys signed before camp starts. I guess it's easier though when you only have three to sign lol
Amen brother....amen to that. Now...if the Jets make a play for Brandon Marshall....I won't need christmas presents this year. :smile:
good stuff. these young guys can now worry about learning the system and playing hard instead of getting paid.
Greene officially green, I dig. This has been a great offseason, if you ask me, and I know you were about to
