If the NFL and the NFL Players Association hope to have a new anthem policy in place for the start of the regular season http://www.texansauthorizedshops.com/authentic-keke-coutee-jersey , time is running short.
The two sides met again on Monday, and the NFL and NFLPA issued a joint statement in the aftermath of the session: “Today, we continued our productive
dialogue on the issues that players have raised awareness about and we remain
committed to working together on solutions. In the spirit of our ongoing
collaboration and process, we will continue the confidentiality of our
discussions.”
In short, this means that there’s no deal yet, and there’s no indication that a deal is coming.
In May, the NFL replaced its existing anthem policy (which allows players to protest during the anthem) with a new policy that requires any would-be
protesters to remain in the locker room. The NFLPA challenged the revision with
a formal grievance Tracy Walker Jersey , based on the argument that the NFL failed to engage the union in collective bargaining before making the change.
The NFL responded, eventually, by suspending the enforcement of the new anthem policy against any players as negotiations aimed at a resolution to the
issue occurred. Earlier this month, NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith
disputed the notion that a hard deadline exists for resolving the policy, a
position that subtly indicates an awareness that the NFLPA has plenty of
leverage on this one.
Add LSU's Danny Etling to the list of quarterbacks drafted by the New England Patriots since they took Tom Brady 18 years ago.
As a seventh-round pick, odds favor him joining the previous eight who didn't replace the franchise icon set to turn 41 this summer.
Still, director of player personnel Nick Caserio figured there was a decent chance the Patriots would add someone to Brady's room during a busy draft that
featured nine picks and 10 trades over three days a year after New England made
just four selections.
"We knew we were going to add to a quarterback to our team at some point Youth Breeland Speaks Jersey ," Caserio said after the draft ended Saturday. "We think Danny has some decent traits and decent qualities to work
with."
New England used the draft's final day to fill a handful of needs on both sides of the ball and gained three picks for next season, including a
third-rounder from Detroit. As of the draft's conclusion, New England holds 12
picks for 2019.
"Busy weekend and a lot of effort from a lot of people," Caserio said. "This is not a one-man show. This is a team effort and embodies what this program is
about ... putting the team first and doing your job."
After making six trades during the first four rounds, the Patriots addressed the linebacker spot with their first two picks Saturday. New England took
Purdue's Ja'Whaun Bentley with the 143rd overall pick in the fifth round and
Arizona State's Christian Sam in the sixth (No. 178).
The Patriots then shifted to offense, taking Miami slot wide receiver Braxton Berrios at No. 210 in the sixth following by Etling with the 219th choice. New
England also took Western Carolina defensive back Keion Crossen (No. 243) and
Florida State tight end Ryan Izzo (No. 250) in the seventh round.
Etling will join Brady and backup Brian Hoyer on the depth chart after throwing for 2,463 yards Gustav Forsling Jersey , 16 touchdowns and two interceptions last season.
"I don't have any expectations other than going in and learning as much information as you can and preparing for your chance when it comes," Etling
said. "You just want to watch a guy who's so great and know how he does it."
Etling spent his freshman and sophomore years at Purdue and was a teammate and close friend of Bentley.
Here are some other things to know about the Patriots' draft:
ANOTHER BOILERMAKER: A three-time captain at Purdue, Bentley follows a line of Purdue linebackers under coach Bill Belichick. Rosevelt Colvin played in New
England for six seasons (2003-08) and Rob Ninkovich retired before the start of
training camp last year after eight seasons.
REPUTATION DEFENDER: Sam tried to discount an NFL profile that suggested he doesn't like to practice.
"Everyone has their own opinion and it's something I can't control, but I felt that wasn't true," Sam said. "I'm a guy who takes pride in practice because
I know how big it is to prepare so you can play at a high level."
The Texas native played cornerback until his junior year of high school and was a special teams player for the Sun Devils.
IN THE SLOT: The loss of receiver Danny Amendola to AFC East-rival Miami goes beyond the departure of one of Brady's most-trusted targets. It also created the
need for a punt returner that was addressed with the drafting of Berrios. In
four years at Miami, Berrios averaged 10.4 yards on punt returns.
"I absolutely love it. There's something about it that gives you an adrenaline rush," the 5-9 Eric Ebron Jersey , 183-pound Berrios said.
STILL NEED: Etling will compete for a roster spot, yet it would appear the Patriots are comfortable with the idea of finding Brady's potential replacement
next year, especially with two second-round picks and three third-rounders. Even
with the additions of Bentley and Sam, New England figures to remain active for
linebacker help.
