I love Vasquez. So don't get me wrong. But honest question, where do you rank Greivis Vasquez amongst the starting PG's in the league? There are 30 teams in the league, and he is 21st amongst PG's in PER, and probably the worst defensive starting PG in the league. Could ...

Point guards can be like QB's in the NFL. If you want to stop being one of the worst teams in the NBA, stop playing with one of the worst pg's in the NBA.

Rob Ryan's defense needs big, physical, press cornerbacks. I love what Greer has done for us, but he is not that. NA on the other hand is one of the best in the game.
And anybody that says you should ignore ANY chance to improve your team, FA/draft or otherwise, is an idiot that should not be w...

Don't believe everything you read. The niners are virtually at the cap right now, and have 14 or 15 picks to sign. Obviously they will move some of them, but many of them they will keep or at least need to have the cap space open going in. They also return both of their starting CB's(Carlos Roger...

| re: How Much of the Available Cap Room Should be Designated to the Draft Class? - Jon1798 on 3/13/13 at 10:41 am
The link above is pretty handy. Generally you're estimating a full class to be close to $5 million. Obviously we are a couple picks short and more like $4 million.
And remember these 5 picks will replace our 5 lowest salaries of about $400,000 each. So you're really only talking about maybe a ...

I'm not so worried about Smith simply because we are talking about a 3-4 DE, and we're sure to rotate a ton. It might be more of Jordan, Bunkley and Hicks on the line anyway. I feel good about that.

You also need to account for the about $4 million locked up in the restricted offers to Chris Ivory and Brian DLP.
Another thing no one ever talks about is the fact that the cap only accounts for your top 51 contracts. So as we add our five draft picks for instance, they will also knock off the ...

I'm not sure why we think that means it doesn't count. We have an official combine weight measurement. The weight he is literally at today. And it's more than many of the great pash rushers in the league at the same point in their development. And at over 6'6, he has plenty of room to bulk up mo...

Neither Jordan nor Mingo were pushed around. Both played hurt and missed time due to injury.
Combine numbers:
Clay Mathews 240 pounds
Cameron Wake 236 pounds
Von Miller 246 pounds
Mingo 241 pounds
Jordan 248 pounds
That's 3 of the top 5 sack leaders in the league. JJ Watt is a 3-4 DE,...
