This Patriots begging the league to give them their first rounder kind of pisses me off
we lost the picks due to an allegation. not from factual evidence, but from probable cause.
 
we shouldn't have lost it in the first place.

First round pick was harsh, but there is a reason that process exists. The Pats had their opportunity to appeal the decision, and publicly announced that they would not do so, for whatever reason. That's when the process ended. Finality matters, what's the point of a process in the first place if you have no regard for it?

Nothing to write home about but i wouldn't say he's terrible either. I'd say he's a good stop-gap/depth player. 
 
I can never really tell who exactly is to blame on the defense.

Mike Zimmer says he texted Adrian Peterson and Teddy Bridgewater after the Vikings signed Alex Boone and Andrew Smith to help the offensive line. Park of the text: "No more excuses." 
 
I f'n love that guy!

He said he signed in Minnesota because Vikings are badass (as a character), and that he wanted to play in the cold

Born in the same city as me, and his rationales are as sound as mine are

Preferable to dealing a pick for Kaepernick. Worth a shot

Could be disastrous, but you could probably say that for the majority of this year's feasible QB options.
 
Hope he works it out and doesn't get crushed under a pack of OL-men on day one of training camp or something.
 
I'm pulling for him.

I damn sure don't want to see Josh McCown in Denver. Sanchez is already enough.

Regardless of what La Canfora says, he easily would have found another destination if the Browns didn't call.

Chase Daniel got 12 million guaranteed for 6 years experience and 77 pass attempts. I'm sure someone else would have been willing to give half that for a guy who actually showed promise in his career.

Chase Daniel's contract is something I can't begin to wrap my brain around. It's an anomaly. Certainly not something to use a measuring stick just because somebody came to the negotiating table drunk.
