Rumor: Jake Long Signs With Rams :(

Really would like to see a veteran right tackle come aboard. Huge risk to put a rook over there. Especially if Jerry remains and/or we start a young TE.

Martin is better off on the left side.

Martin is, but is Ryan Tannehill?

I think not.

This sucks..I don't buy that he wanted to be here, have speculated that he didn't, choosing St. Louis over us..what a fu&$in waste of a resource.

The only way this makes sense is to replace Jake with a very talented player, either sign the best tackle in the market or draft one of the big three if one drops.

Can we put to bed the who we should have taken #1 overall bull**** now?

Matt Ryan was the pick, no other way around, Parcells screwed the football on it.

It was 5 years ago... and we since have drafted our potential franchise QB.

Let it go...

Oops, my mistake. Damn twitter language still doesn't make sense to me sometimes. Seems backwards how they list who tweets and then who retweets.

Sometimes? I concur , I can text on my phone , haven't felt the need to move up from that yet. Though my son keeps saying he wants to get me a new phone and he is Cre Com grad and is in communications. He texts me anything he thinks is interesting from the tweets he gets, which is a lot , so may I should take the plunge?

Nope, this is accountability time FN.

We are constantly fed that 'experts on the nfl know more than you"

yet they fail time after time, this bothers me a bit..just a wee..bit.

I'm going to be honest here. I think Sebastian Vollmer can play left tackle. He played there for a stretch of games as a rookie and was REALLY good in those games. And he's been a standout right tackle.

I'd love to have Vollmer, but the impression up here in Boston sure feels like they will find a way to keep Vollmer and let Welker go.
I still give credit to Ireland with the thought that Martin was indeed drafted to replace Long at LT given the money Long was going to demand this year.

Should have drafted Flacco

I would realy like them sign Vollmer. So much for Jake being a part of the foundation for ten years or so.

Why is Vollmer available?

I wonder that myself. I don't have a twitter capable phone. No idea which one to get or how to go about setting it all up. I only follow twitter online.

Patriots keep on drafting linemen

I am sure I was not the only person to note who three of the four QB's were in the final four last year.

nfl network saying long is not even close to signing yet

Ian Rapaport says not so fast. Much to finalize.

According to Rams, Rams have NOT agreed to terms with Jake Long. In fact, they haven't even discussed "terms." Long still taking physical.

NFL network confirms my suspicions. NO ONE else is reporting this supposed signing but Omar and his "sources".

My son has been an apple kid/young man but he has said the new Samsung S3 ( I think ) may be the best right now.

Oops, Mr. PFCentral may have jumped the gun on this. Haven't seen such blatant misreporting since that one guy claimed that Jared Cook agreed to terms with the Rams for a contract that runs 7 years and $35 million.

Oh wait...that ended up being true? ;)

Just heard that, too. They said no terms had even been discussed yet. I also haven't seen it anywhere else. Has anyone?

I hope Jake signs elsewhere so that Omar once again looks like the horse's arse we know he is.

Hold the phone on Long being a goner:

Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet
Jake Long has a full day itinerary set with #Rams. His physical is still going on. Was told by someone involved nothing is done.

There is only a 50% chance at best of making the right decision... of course they fail time after time.
