    We’ve run so much nickel it’s dumb we paid edmunds.

    Whole point of the Roquan trade was we wouldn’t pay an ILB as a rebuilding team. Then we paid a worse player almost just as much. While Sanborn and Edwards have been better for less than half the price.

    It doesn’t kill us cuz we have a lot of cap space but imagine if that money went to another weapon on offense or a C or a DL. But unless the ILB is a superstar he won’t elevate the defense enough to justify that price.

      In light of Roquan’s recent comments, it might have been that he never wanted to come back in the first place. So Poles did the best he could if that was indeed the situation. Or Poles is an idiot, that’s entirely possible too.

        You’re right. Roquans recent comments about the bears makes it blatantly obvious he wasnt coming back here. Not to mention he literally had his friend doing contract talks with us and not a real agent. He is unprofessional and good riddance to him.

          The “Good Will Hunting sends Affleck to the job interview instead” tactic. An oldy but a goody.
