His play doesn’t match his contract even at one year. It would be a nostalgic/sentimental hire.

A meatball move. And I like Mack too FTR
I think he's still fine, but it really is likely to just be a very short term plug. That's not a bad thing, but it's also not the end of the world to not have it. There are other plugs we can choose from if Poles wants to do that. Otherwise, I expect, and always expected, we'd be drafting someone.

You'd like to think that statement would get through to him, but it won't.

Anyone else starting to panic as we get closer to kick off of FA? Seeing players get snapped up by own teams and teams cutting guys to make room to re-sign guys. FA market is looking thinner and thinner. I honestly at point of just making trade with Bengals for Hendrickson and him being the mega contract we hand out..Draft a center like Grey Zabel and DT in rd 2 or 3

I don’t see FA being exciting this year. The best players at each position aren’t that great. Take your time Poles

I think it was common sense this was going to happen.

Most expected him to at least test the market.

Not sure why he didnt, if the chargers are offering 18m he could have circled back after other teams make offers and gotten a few milly more.

Guess thats where he wanted to be all along

FA kinda has sucked for a few years now.

Most teams dont let good players walk at this point considering the cap is going up 20m+ a year

If you want great players at this point you need to trade or draft them
