    Yea, I'm really hoping that we don't sign him. I'd rather give someone younger with some upside a chance.

    Bookmark away. The Vikings were 31st in a 32 team league in passing yards with stability at the qb position. Not too hard to improve upon that sort of "production".

    Bridgewater was 22nd in the league at 23 years old ... with less attempts than Ben but they have this guy there you may have heard of Adrian Peterson he reduces the need to throw it a bunch , 65% completion percentage .. look I know you love Wexell but is He worth fighting for ? really ? you fight harder for his illogical points than he does

    I respect Wexall, doesn't mean I don't think he's ever wrong. And when he's wrong I'll gladly point it out. But I don;t think he's wrong on his discussion with you. While no great fan of Kordell I tend to believe if you had 3rd Kordell and 2nd year Teddy on your roster Teddy is sitting on the bench. And by the way in case you forgot Kordell had a pretty good back taking a lot of plays away from the passing game too.

    Kordell was the first Pro Bowl alternate in 97. Teddy needed about 14 guys to opt out last year in order to get a whiff of the Pro Bowl. Not that the Pro Bowl is that great a barometer, but know this. At his best Kordell was highly regarded around the league. Teddy not so much. That's what 6 yards per completion will get you I guess.

    Again do your bookmark, Teddy Bridgewater will not be a starting qb in 3 years. He's limited as in he pretty much sucks. Yes and so did Kordell. But at least Kordell twice got to a conference championship game. Your Teddy, well see?

    Tell you what, do me a favor, if Teddy's so important to you start a thread with a poll on the NFL forum about him and I'll go into more specific detail about why he sucks and will never amount to jack shit. But this is the last I discuss him on this thread or any other unrelated thread not specific to him. He's just not important to me.

    So, is Jason Jones basically another Dirty Dick/sucky DL/journeyman backup?

    PFF’S TOP 75 FREE AGENTS OF 2016

    51. Jason Jones, DE

    2015 team: Detroit Lions

    Jones has consistently generated pressure over the last two years, and would primarily be a rotational pass-rusher going forward.

    That sounds like someone who could help to me. Not sure why everyone hates the idea of signing him so much?

    Don't hate him, don't know him. He's been in the league 8 years and this is the first I'm hearing his name.

    To me this has the feel of a Mewelde Moore, Will Allen, Darius Heyward Bey type under the radar signing that will quietly pay dividends for several seasons.

    Jones had 3 1/2 sacks against the Steelers in his rookie year (2008) when he was with the Titans.

    against the worst offensive line ever to win a super bowl!!!

    Seriously, I think it would be a good acquisition which would add depth on defense.

    Those two were the starting tackles in the Super Bowl, but I think they brought Starks back because Marvel Smith got hurt that year.

    Does anyone else remember this. I'm not sure.

    Smith played 5 games in 2008 and was placed on IR. Starks took over at LT

    Doesn't matter who was playing on the line. It was 6 years ago. That's like 125 in fat D lineman years. Is rather a gamble on a younger guy.

    Report: Dolphins will sign Jason Jones

    Posted by Zac Jackson on May 13, 2016

    The Dolphins plan to sign veteran defensive lineman Jason Jones, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Friday.

    Jones visited the Dolphins in March and again last month.

    Jones has played multiple positions across the defensive line in his eight-year career, which started when the Titans picked him in the second round in 2008. He played the last three seasons with the Lions.

    With the compensatory pick threshold for free agents having passed, players like Jones who were still on the market could find new teams quickly.

    Jones started 31 games over the last two seasons for the Lions and had 9.5 sacks during that time.

    Didn't see a spot on the team for Jones.

    The team is done signing free agents Imo. I could see Will Allen being brought back sometime during training camp though.
