Noooo.. Not Cozy Lizard

Good bye and thanks for the great name.


Interesting, the only available number for Dekker in #7. He aint touching #8 or #9.

I don't think QB's can wear numbers higher than the teens or 20's. Maybe all that changed.

I really wish they would go back to the old number rules. Yea, yea. ok boomer, get off my lawn.

Dekkers has been known for awhile once the UFL season ended

you can always have competition at K especially since Smyth is still unproven

Curious if this could be in relation to moving Rattler

We still have Z Wilson right? I mean I would probably feel better having Rattler as QB2 just in case unless we could get a great price for him, although I suspect that's unlikely.

He wouldn’t be the next Brandon Aubrey, he’d be the next Jake Bates.

Pulled from U(S)FL obscurity, now one of the best kickers in the NFL with the Lions

Yes Wilson is still on the roster.

Having competition for the #2 spot is never a bad thing. Having said that I'm not sure Dekker is real competition or someone who knows the system and can be a decent camp arm.

I would not hesitate in the least to have Wilson as the #2. Neither Wilson or Rattler are going to save your season if Shough goes down but Wilson has quality experience and at least produced in college so the talent is there but he's never been able to make the transition to the NFL work out. Rattler seems to be what he was in college.

Not a vote of confidence.

It is what it is.

We have no clear cut back up QB and may not have a comfortable option going into the season. Hopefully we won’t have to find out if we have a competent #2 for any length of time.

I imagine Dekkers is gonna be on the PS just like last season. They released him so he could go to UFL and get that experience with an understanding that he would be brought back once the ufl season was done.

Read that Bub Means is injured again. Maybe he gets released and #16 becomes available. Otherwise, during TC, offensive and defensive players can wear the same #. That would make #1 available to him for TC.
