Getting swept by the rebuilding Saints with a rookie 2nd round pick behind center is unforgivable.

Slavin has a gold, Jarvy with silver and Aho with bronze. Good showing by the boys in Raleigh.

Bailey is a better pure EDGE rusher. Splitting hairs though, because they are ranked right next to one another; they could easily be flip-floppled. Bailey is another one I thought would fly up the rankings and he has. Remember, it was just a month ago he in range for us to pick. That's the reason I stopped mocking him, along with Styles.

Depending on what the asking price is we should inquire but if this FO is going to succeed we need to hit on one in the draft. This team was built on linebackers. If all we can do is overpay free agents to assemble a decent LB room we might as well clean house.

There is not a universe that Bailey is a better prospect than Reese. And if we are being honest Styles is probably a better football player he just doesnt rush the passer as much

Daniel Jeremiah's top 50 players heading into the Combine. Lol at the people still pining for Styles. Dude will be LONG gone before our slot as I noted he would be. Go ahead a keep drafting him at #19 if y'all want to keep ruining/making unrealistic mock drafts. https://www.nfl.com/news/daniel-jeremiah-s-top-50-2026-nfl-draft-prospect-rankings-2-0

Kmet is better than just 'meh'. Mayer took a back seat to Bowers and is another TE that would relish a chance to start again. Sanders, Temble and Evans is a better group of TEs than we've fielded during the Ian Thomas era, but it's far from stacked. That's the problem, our TE room has sucked for so long now that being 'better than crap' is apparently good enough--which it is not.

Why? Feels like we got a whole TE crew of almost Kmets. Loveland surpassed Kmet easy and relegated Kmet to Tremble like stats. Kmet’s decent years were because of volume. Kmet had over 90 targets twice in his career. Tremble’s career high in targets is 37. Tremble could produce Kmet numbers with the same volume so why would you ever go for Kmet? Loveland or Bowers type studs, go for it. Meh TEs, we’ve got plenty.

XL is cool as hell and so is Jordan Matthews but that was last year.

In theory I agree but tough to pull off in practice. I don’t think we’ll realistically go after or land a Giannis type, but getting another key contributing veteran starter like the Celtics getting Jrue Holiday a few years ago was what I had in mind.

Ran into Jake and he is the coolest.

Steve smith is THE biggest asshole I’ve ever met. Also so my favorite player so take that for what it’s worth.

Is/will he be available? Isn't he still under contract?

We will sign Cole Kmet

Falcons to tag Pitts. Thank goodness, that saves us from doing something dumb. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48015391/source-falcons-place-franchise-tag-te-kyle-pitts

Yeah. They do the same thing with OL, all OL positions are included and that is why Ravens can’t or won’t tag Linderbaum - 28mil for a C. And they could sign him but I think maybe his mindset for the last year is make them regret not having enough faith in him to pick up his 5th year. I am not sure we should pay a ILB 20 million either. I guess if there is a rookie next to him, you can rationalize it financially.

Have met Luke and Jstew multiple times, both are gueninlely nice guys and down to earth as they come. Smitty I guess it really depends on what side of the bed he woke up on I've seen him were hes cool and other times hes a dick. Williams was a always a dick.... just my 2C.

Big one for the Tarheels tonight, start of three straight at home before Dook season closer. 3-1 maybe gets UNC into the double bye, a loss other than to Dook, pretty much insures they'll be playing on Wednesday in the ACC tourney. Still a lot of movement could happen. There's 5 or 6 teams who could be anywhere between the 3rd seed and 8th seed depending on how things shake out.

its almost if that big qb contract is tethering the team down

Was that photo taken at South Mountains? I used to see him up there on occasion.

They also didn't mind it last year during four nations, or when they beat the fins lol. Sour grapes, they had 3 pf the top four players in the world on the ice when we beat them.

The tag for '26 is 28M. No way they tag him. He is projected to be worth around 60M for 3 years so they could still try to sign him on an extension for about that amount: JagsWire As someone else mentioned, the tag average factors in outside linebackers, aka, edge rushers, in the line backer formula. If they would distinguish between olb and ilb, the ilb would get a lot less.

He didn't actually make the playoffs. We had several opportunities to clinch on our own and crapped the bed. We had to wait for Atlanta to win to get us in. We had the tie breaker in a poo division that had 3 teams finish 8-9. If you go back and look at the games we played, we weren't a dominant offensive team under him as an OC. We beat the Jets 13-7 and barely beat the packers after they failed to convert multiple red zone trips. We relied heavily on converting 4th downs. DC was also extremely slow at recognizing trends in game and was really lacking with clock management. Was there progress this year? Yes. But most of it was on the defensive side of the ball. Our offense was stagnant with a couple of exceptions. Any improvement from Bryce was minimal and he kept insisting on XL over Coker, and even RB distribution instead of going with the hot hand. He may be building something, but I don't think we've seen enough to know what that is. It could go either direction. If he insists on being OC, then without a noticeable improvement, yes he needs to be on the hot seat like any OC would. The more jobs you take on the more you have to be judged on. I think he would have a longer leash if he hired a true OC and just focused in being HC.

zero percent suprised Luke is a nice guy irl, have never heard anything differently from anyone that's met him. I have heard mixed reports on Smitty I know one guy on here got to know Deangelo Williams and J stew pretty well back in the day when they used to host events and he said they were nice iirc I can't imagine Jordan gross is a bad hang, he's hilarious

Ran across this bit of fun. As seen on https://www.thesportinggent.com/blogs/dispatches/front-porch-musings-field-ethos-journal (a blog for outdoors gear and clothing)
