    I dont see how this should excite anyone. At least we know Bowman can still play.

    Is he coming to be an on field coach or mentor through training camp? He was an outstanding player but “was” is the key word….
    Still need a starter……

    It continues to amaze me that RM, and now Gruden seemingly, cannot find a young impactful MLB.

    I agree that at least we know Bowman can still play. A step slower? For sure. But at 30+ who isn’t?

    I get it if Bowman wants a huge ton of cash, that is likely not going to happen with any team.

    But we know what Bowman brings and the character he has. Johnsons leadership ability is so much better than Bowmans? Come on.

    Neither Bowman nor Johnson are the future at this spot. We need to find the player that is.

    Johnson is going to have to prove he can be a full time MLB.

    Lets remember CB S. Smith. The chiefs let him walk too. What happened? RM signed him to a huge deal. How did that work out………

    Derrick Johnson…LOL!! This franchise has no chance with Gruden running this thing he is completely clueless with personnel. He is a coach, not a GM. Quite frankly it shocks me how completely incompetent he is showing himself to be.

    Gruden is going to run this franchise into the ground. This team will never make the playoffs under him. The question is how much damage will he do before he gets his butt kicked to the curb and the team is in the hole by a ridiculous amount of money. If Mark Davis isn’t look at this and already thinking he didn’t make a big mistake he will be soon.

    Brian Cushing next….this is like an ongoing Saturday Night Live episode.
