Yeah, I actually like him. Think once Tua gets acclimated and settles in they'll be a good FB team.

#Dolphins coach Brian Flores was a signfiicant reason why Deshaun Watson wanted to be in Miami. WIth Flores out, this situation may have changed.

From PFT....

Mike Mayock is out as the General Manager of the Las Vegas Raiders.

Mayock was informed today that he will not be retained, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported.

The move doesn’t come as a huge shock, given that Mayock was brought in specifically to work with Jon Gruden, the head coach who was fired during the season. The Raiders have reportedly already started lining up interviews to find a replacement for Mayock.

Mayock, who lasted three years with the Raiders, was previously NFL Network’s draft expert, and it seems more likely that he’ll return to television than that he’ll get another GM job.

Good grief, this means we'll have to listen to him during the draft again

Just a reminder that while Antonio Brown might be crazy, that doesn't mean Bruce Arians isn't a jerk:

Or maybe Brown isn't crazy after all....

I think what happened was the intersection of "crazy" and "pushed too far."
