Still struggling with the reality we let our best WR and pretty much best OT walk for a 5th.
Moves that did not have to be made for a team that had other specific needs to address, which have also been ignored.

They have this money-making enterprise on auto-pilot with no need for oversight and accountability.

Mathieu’s Agent: “That’s right, Mr. Irsay. The Cowboys upped their offer to $14M/year. But, we like Indianapolis and will sign if you match.”

Irsay: “The Cowboys!?! Lol. I’ve got the Jones’ right here bettin on the ponies. Sign our $12M or deal’s off. You got jack shit. Hey, Jerry, listen to….”

What’s your top ten
NY State of Mind
Protect Ya Neck
Changes
B.I.B.L.E.
A Better Tomorrow
Juicy
Shook Ones Pt. II
Verbal Intercourse
What Goes Around
All That I Got Is You

That's mostly just pre-1996 stuff (because we all know 90's rap is the GOAT) so I'll throw out Money Trees, m.A.A.d city, Born Sinner, Ason Jones, 5 AM in Toronto, Love Yourz, All Falls Down, Gorgeous, All the Stars, No Church in the Wild, Dark Fantasy, All of the Lights, The Prayer, Forever, and Let It All Work Out for the best contemporary stuff (post-2010 basically, don't even talk to me about mumble rap although Migos are fine).

Have you listened to Czarface? Secondly, nothing Premier breaks into your Top 10?

I assume you mean DJ Premier, to include songs he's produced? If so I'm pretty sure NY State of Mind is one of them.

Czarface is fine but it feels like a bunch of dudes who are like 80% of what they were at their peak, which is understandable considering they're like 50. Deck is the most underrated Wu Tang member though, he has several of their best ever verses as a group.

What's your top 10?

Wilson is kind of a legit media guy so I'm hoping it's true. I'd rather have Wagner than Smith but I much prefer Smith to someone like JPP, and if he's healthy he's significantly better than Gregory.

Like, he's closer to the Von Miller/Chandler Jones level than Gregory's level.

Much more physical too, he's kind of a bully in his play style, which would be nice.

If he can stay healthy.

I think he played pretty close to elite for us. But he isn't an elite safety.
IIRC, towards the end of the year one of the ESPN+ articles had him rated as the best TE covering safety.

So he was elite in that area. It's a nice niche to have especially when we're seeing a bit of a resurgence in the TE position around the league.
