In the words of O'Shea, everyone is a starter.

That's what got us into the situation we are now. No, not everyone is a starter. Some are career backups. Some are career special teamers. Everyone has a role to play on a team but everyone is a starter? If everyone is a starter then why aren't all players on the Bombers paid like they're starters? That's Osh being fricking Osh.

going jones to sankey is a lateral move, certainly not one worth losing sleep over or spending money on. 

 We have a good group of bigger wils who can actually run/cover ground, and play inside gaps. The only LBers in free agency I would look at is allen, and mcmanis. Who are the top tier of value at wil/mac. 

I always thought the guy's name was Wynston McManis. Not Wynton. I wonder if Jim Barker will try to sign him before free agency? Or will he test what's out there?

signed peyton thorne. wow its going to be interesting to watch the qbs in camp. Mich state, auburn, played at good schools. Guy has incredible raw talent and athleticism. Easy smooth arm action with a good release. Very capable runner. He’s not really wired for high volume running. 

 Great upside in a young guy.

Kinda glad to see Parker go. Hurt like 80% of the time and very meh when he was healthy.

Too bad about Parker as I believe injuries kept him from being really good. That said given his injury history, I am ok with them moving on.

When does Dillon Mitchell get officially released?
