Licht move is obvious. His good 2 bad roster move ratio is like a ridiculous 8:1 and the recent draft successes are bananas.

Bowles is more interesting. Him proactively trying 2 address game management issues and openly discussing an evolution of his DEF have me feeling hopeful he may b ascending.

The one reason why the Steelers signing Aaron Rodgers makes sense Signing a 41-year-old quarterback to a one-year deal is the sign of a directionless franchise. But there *is* an upside to Rodgers moving to Pittsburgh

I wrote about Aaron Rodgers on the Steelers: how his game has evolved, pairing with Arthur Smith, misnomers about the 2024 Jets offense, and the one medium-term upside of bringing a 41-year-old with an eroding skill-set into the fold for a season

Excellent podcast from @pablo.show.

Pretty damning implications for both the NFL and the NFLPA.

A must watch.

Per a league source, Hunter is not the first non-QB taken after No. 1 to get his full signing bonus up front. Both Nick Bosa and Chase Young got their full signing bonuses up front.

Find fun ways to get to counter!

Nifty.

Josh Williams is at his best as a receiver when he can grab and turn and burn with no wasted energy across the lateral plane.

I think Calijah could be Ed Oliver +.

Realistically for Diaby, a more athletic Preston Smith in terms of impact and how he wins. Given the extra athleticism probably a slightly higher ceiling as well.

Nice center of gravity here.

The play of the line may have less highs (on the interior) but fewer lows from LT leading to more predictable play that they can build from.

I think there will be less variance which will help them be more explosive.

Josh Williams RAS from @mathbomb.bsky.social. Watching him you can see the explosiveness in how he cuts and can get to top speed quickly.

Josh Williams with a nice creative bounce w/good vision as the counter doesn't quite develop as designed.

Every NFL team if the Chiefs have adequate LT play.

Josh Simmons being a full participant for KC training camp is a BIG deal.

Makes my heart sing hearing @minakimes.bsky.social talk about the Bucs switching to gap last year and how the run game took off. #counterforthewin

What is your favorite trigger/loophole/provision?

The Steelers locked up S DeShon Elliott on a 2-yr extension at $6.25M/yr per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

I have this as a value for PIT as I thought Elliott’s value was closer to $8.5M/yr.

Moving everything over here. You should see a ton more from me now.

Boone got to play at the rockslide/waterfall.

Took me down and now I have battle scars.
