No competition or bidding war this way.
I don’t mind getting Sweat, I just think it should have been a third or you don’t do it. Our second is too high. True he’s better than what you could draft, but he’s not one of the best at his position in the league. He’s just a good player. Plus he’s not under contract after this year. Claypool was.
That’s why everyone is saying we’re losers today.

Maybe this is why they didn't want Chase Young
According to Michael Silver of the San Francisco Chronicle, Young was viewed within the Commanders organization as being an “undisciplined” player. That is likely why Washington chose not to pick up the $17.4 million fifth-year option on Young’s rookie contract and did not make an effort to sign him to an extension.
“Young, according to several Commanders coaches and other organizational sources, was viewed as an undisciplined player who developed bad habits such as deviating from assignments in an effort to make splash plays,” Silver wrote on Tuesday. “His off-the-field priorities and commitment to his craft were often questioned, and he was viewed internally as a player who plateaued as a rookie.”

The Bears' human resources department was involved in the decision, which the team has not yet announced.

Possible.
Only way unless he was on some gay shit
Or refused to use proper pronouns around an LGBT staffer.
I agree with ya, a 3rd pick would have been better.
Poles gettin Hosed on giving up 2nd picks, once again.
Hopefully Team President Warren is keeping score
Thanks for this. Good to hear they're working with Sweat on a long term deal.

Man Eberflooze may be gettin that pink slip
because this is the 2nd coach that have been fired
in a span of a month. He vetted these coaches.
Only problem about firing him, who would replace him the remaining of the season?
He better be gone after the season, I personally would like Harbaugh but that's me. Yesterday Poles concerned me with his high praise of Eberflus in his press conference. If he hasn't realized this dude ain't the guy, then he should be gone as well.
Yeah I saw that press conference
He did his ryan pace impression with his praise of eberflooze
pace use to praise nagy and we saw how that ended
They had to give him a new deal or it would have been the worst trade in history
and apparently it was a two, because Atlanta was involved

Same Lance Briggs that took and agreed to more money from the 49ers but the league voided the signing due to tampering
THAT LANCE BRIGGS?

Two things. Folks outside of the fanbase:
1. Don't realize how badly we need talent along the line. Proven talent is worth it's weight in gold to US especially...
2. They're gonna pop shit regardless cuz they don't want to see us get better. Always keep that in mind.
BONUS: Also remember that most of these folks aren't any more qualified to give a decent opinion than the old lady that works at the dry cleaner down the street.
I miss the days of Pernell mcphees types got 5 years for 38 million.
I HAVE NEVER HEARD OR SEEN THIS NIGGA IN MY LIFE FROM THE DISTRICT
AND HES GETS A BIGGER CONTRACT THAN PEPPERS

I feel like it's all about what the market sets... which goes up with every like-contract (or down for RBs, I guess).
But for Sweat, the "comparable" at this time seems to be Gary's deal. So it's match that now, or risk paying more if some other team decides to overpay some bum and then you have to match that (or lose Sweat to another team that will pay him even more).
If they really like him in this scheme, and they targeted him as someone that they would have gone after ANYWAY in FA, I have zero issues with extending him now to this money.
If they fire Flus, hopefully they bring in someone who does what Flus claimed he would do: Install system(s) around the talent that we have.
So is he a DE? Edge Rusher? Or LineBacker?
DE. Though you hardly hear that term used anymore. The term "edge rusher" has become predominant.
He's a big DE who is also solid against the run. He'd be fine
