I saw that and wondered how old he was since it's been forever since he played.
A 38-YO running back!?
He'll always be remembered for trucking Landry.

If he goes there that will open up a ton for that offense
But is a poor decision. Mortgaging the future. A 1st round pick should be a long-term young starter, not a receiver who has lost a step and well into his 30s with insane contract. Trading for Jones is the kind of mistake we used to make.
I had thought GB might trade a 2nd for him, appease Rodgers, but a 1st is just too much.

I partly agree with you - 1st round pick is too much unless it's a team who is one #1 WR away from being a SB contender. Jones might be older and not the same as he was a few years ago, but he is still a WR that can make huge difference for an offense. Last year, Falcons and Ryan played well when Jones was on the field and struggled without him.
I had the same thought about GB, I think trading for Jones might help Rodgers feel a little better. Adams and Jones on the same field would make everything easier for Rodgers - all he needs to do is just to throw it up and let the guys catch it.

Thank goodness Dan and Vinnie aren’t putting up 2 number ones for Jones. 🤦*♂️

Yeah we get it, he's throwing a friend a bone. Doesn't mean he's gonna make the squad or contribute.
Agree.
Be interesting to see.
Seen crazier things than Tebow as TE 3 or 4

Texans are stockpiling RBs.
They just signed Rex Burkhead to go with David Johnson, Philip Lindsey and Mark Ingram, along with a few other guys.
I guess since they know their passing game will be garbage, might as well.

I was wondering what was going on with Morgan Moses:
"Morgan Moses to visit Bears following tumultuous split from Washington, per report" https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/morgan-moses-to-visit-bears-following-tumultuous-split-from-washington-per-report/amp/

I know this is a CFL post but Edmonton has changed their name from Eskimos to Elks.

The real racists win again.
Absolutely NOHTING wrong wit a team honoring a tribe, yet certain people get offended just by hearing their name, and apparently their existence.
Keep erasing people from history...

But the Inuits dont like being called "eskimos" .. so if you want to honor them and keep history accurate .. youd call them by their correct name "inuits" and not the name the white settlers gave them.
Unless you only see "history through the white man's eyes" as the only history you actually care about.
How you, a dude form Pennsylvania, could get upset at a Canadian football team changing their name under the fake banner of "erasing history and we are only trying to honor them" .. just blows my mind at the mental gymnastics and freezing of logic needed to think like that.
They dont want to continue to be referred to by the label white people gave them 200 years ago.
its not that hard a concept to grasp.
Its has nothing to do with you or about you or your snowflake everything-offends-you feelings.
