You'd think if they were going to restructure Thuney, they would have done it already.

Don't know, starting to get a little discouraged that there's been like zero movement on DE or WR.

They can agree to terms. Just sign them on Friday

Don't they have to be under the cap by 4pm today? Or is that Friday too?

By today at 4 PM. That’s what the Clark restructure was for.

Correct

So unless they extend Hill or do something with someone else like Thuney, they won't be doing much of anything today. Right?

Also can restructure Kelce as needed to free up some space.

I suspect if they get in a spot where they need the space now or they're going to lose someone they need/want, they'll move quickly and aggressively.

They haven’t technically ‘done anything’ with Reid yet though, have they? We’re still just in the legal tampering period.

They reportedly want Smith and they've been linked to both Landry and Smith-Schuster (more than once).

You'd think those deals could have been done by now if we had the cap space.

Like I said, I'm getting a little impatient because the rest of our division seems to be gobbling guys up. We have so many holes still.

They've agree to terms with Reid. Unless they're keeping things VERY close to the vest (which seems impossible in this social media climate) they've done nothing since other than Frank ****ing Clark.

I’d be more worried if the WRs and DEs were flying off the market but they aren’t yet.

Right.

So I’m saying they could do the same thing with any other potential signings and ‘agree to terms’ then formalize at the start of the league year after Mahomes restructures.

They just…aren’t.

Yeah, you're right there. It is kind of weird.

Yep. That's my concern.
