unless someone is going to poop out a starting RT or CB/S for us, i doubt we do much of anything. there's not a ton of cap space either for a bigger name guy.

Bruce Allen is definitely looking at other players like every other GM in the NFL. Just locating some valuable pieces and figuring where they fit in with the current roster.

agreed.^

I don't know what Bleacher Report is fellas, pretty much expect to get the scoop here.

SmootSmack · 10-17-2012, 04:15 PM

I know BR. Some of the guys who run it are friends of mine. I could have been a multimillionaire many times over had I accepted their offer...but they do not break news or provide scoops. In fact, they specifically mandate to their writers that they are not supposed to break news. That is not what they are all about. At all

So, in other words, you should never go to BR for any breaking news or rumors because they won't provide it.

How is it that they make millions if they arent providing news or any other service? Do enough people vist that site to have THAT much ad revenue?

They have many millions of people visiting their site each month. They've mastered Google Search so often people see their stories appear first. Their slideshows drive up their pageview/visit numbers. They have a huge audience. Their philosophy was basically get the audience first, then focus on the quality. They have the audience. Some of their new policies and their acquisition by Turner should help with the quality

In my opinion, the site itself is crap. The slides actually annoy me. There is no worthwhile content that i wouldnt rather get some somewhere else.

But I really admire their business plan and execution.

Many of the same reasons I passed on their offer...though I probably could have happily sold my soul had I know what lay ahead for them

They do have some good videos on their YouTube page

Hell I would in a second.I love Rg3 but Luck is almost as good and i think he will have a better career,I say because RG3's style of play I think will shorten his career because of injury issues

Bleacher report speculated a Lorenzo Alexander and late round pick for Jennings. All we need is 2 injured star receivers...

Do you honestly think that a good pre-season is going to bring a higher pick for cousins than what we spent on him? I dont.
