From a practical standpoint, does having Dieter on the roster take the place of a productive player? Probably not at WR but you can always use more bodies on the OL or DL.
On the other hand, Mahomes is our football savior. Whatever he wants, give it to him.
Guys, enough of that. If Deiter is around, it's because he's bringing something to the table other than being Patricks buddy. Patrick is friends with everyone.
Deiter's cheap, willing and knows what the team is all about. Perhaps they see value in him that we don't. But they are not sitting around going "If we cut Dieter, we're gonna make Patrick angry, and then he won't play good for us. Better keep 'ol Gherig around..."

Yep. Also I admit to not really knowing a lot about Bolton and I was worried that MU fans were just being homers.
Everything I've heard about him so far is positive and not just from MU fans. [Reply]
I don’t think Deiter’s wife and Brittany are even friends anymore. I noticed they don’t hang out as a couple at all anymore (they haven’t for quite some time), and they don’t even follow each other on IG anymore.

It's weird that the people who believe in magic plates don't believe in science. This is why you have Mitt Romney telling mormons that getting vaccinated is pro-life. They're desperate.
But perhaps this isn't the thread for that.
So let's just say that every one of our draft picks this year, including the one traded for Orlando Brown, appears to be a freakin home run. [Reply]

I just dont see Mahomes making a play for a guy because of friendship. He is the ultimate competitor, but I don’t see him trying to make a case with Andy if it’s just a verge roster cut. I could be wrong, but regardless of personal relationships, Patrick knows it’s a business, and winning the SB is the ultimate goal. Dieter not making the team, could be the difference in a player at a position of need, making the team and producing. With that said, I’d be happy if Dieter makes the team on his own accord. [Reply]
