I'll cut a finger off and post a photo to this board if we trade for Trent Williams.

Heard Peters is willing to play RT... 

Would be happy either way though.

Then, factor in that he is demanding a new deal.

I still think he ends up in Cleveland.  They love the big names up there.

If any of this LT talk is real, that says a lot about how they view what they have for at  least one of the T positions. 

Makes me think if one of the top OT's fall to #33, would not be surprising to see the Bengals take him for their rookie QB.

What the hell is going on around here???

Not sure how reliable this info is, but this would be amazing. From a fan of 40 years that was ready to call it day with my fandom of this team, I'm excited for the first time in many years. I don't even care if they suck or not at this point...at least they are trying something different. They have earned my fandom back regardless of how this season turns out.

Either way - I’m just excited to hear any rumor at this point (regardless of credibility).. because for the first time in a long time it actually feels like anything is possible.

That or, not even remember what you said.

Plus, I have cut a part of a finger off and I highly recommend against it.
