Carr is the most notable from the players in the 2014 class mentioned because he was a second rounder, not a first. That meant the*Raiders*couldn’t option him for a fifth year and delay a newer deal. This then created more urgency on the Raiders’ behalf to get a deal done sooner.

Sure wish Bellicheck would sign Berry, now. With his heel be 100% and all now. Haglund rides again strong. [Reply]
Seems to me that the Chiefs want to go ahead and gamble, and why not? if Spags thinks they can do better upfront and that Jones isn't his ideal fit, then it's a win-win for the Chiefs.
I like the kid a lot, he's a competitor. That said, I HAVE advocated for a more business-like approach with these guys and if that's what we're doing then that's fine by me. [Reply]

I'm confused. Which is it? GTFO of here Brett, or that's fine by me? [Reply]
Chiefs perspective from @TerezPaylor: "Maybe you shouldn't freelance on so many of those sacks. Maybe you should show up to OTAs. You show up we'll start talking."
