No mass overpays on contracts. Upgrade Oline, Speedster at WR, decent signing or mid round pick at corner incase 2024 is the last year here of Horn/Jackson. Extend Brown and Luvu. I'm just hoping for 5-6 wins next year and to be more competitive. Lets keep all of our assets and get ready to make the jump in 2025.

these contracts are going to go well into the offseason when the new regime comes in. But I care more about keeping Brown than I do Burns. Would love to have both, but if we can get late first for Burns after the tag and trade to build out the roster and extend YGM I dont think we'd really be any worse than we are now. Then you'd have alot more cap to keep building forward.

5-6, we will make some improvements but too many holes and limited resources to fix it all in one offseason.

Too early to tell. Will Icky bump inside? Will we bring back Evero or will the new D coordinator swap back to the 4-3? Xavier Worthy or getting Sweat while trading down 4-5 picks if we keep a 3-4 would be my idle picks. Also if Luvu goes Trotter Jr becomes an option. Also if a top corner is there both Horn and Jackson’s contracts you can walk away from at the end of 2024. We need so much help.

Agreed, we can’t trust him to draft and imagine we’d have to overpay for good talent. Rather not do that. Just hoping for 5-6 wins next year and let’s build for the future. Bryce hasn’t lived up to his pick but all these bad trades and picks that have left us talent depleted is on Fitts

I agree. I’m not hopeful for a playoff spot but if we are just 3-4 starting spots away from being 7-10 type ball club if who we have under contract next year continue to develop. Xavier Worthy of Troy Fautana are my favorite prospects at 33 unless someone drastically falls. Speedster or a starting guard for Bryce’s tenure here. Now just lock but Brown/ Luvu and trade Burns for to a contender for a late first rounder

I would literally tag and trade him for whatever I could get at this point. I'm not sure if we could get much more than a 2nd and 4th. No way a team wants to pay him more than 25mil with what he's put on tape this season.

I think he only had to pay Rhule like $5million because of the Nebraska contract offsetting a majority of the money. And the main reason he was owed anything was the escalating contract for Nebraska the the first couple years was less than what he would have made as the Panther's coach.

Fire Fitts and use your Billions to take Howie Roseman from the Eagles….. a man can dream can’t he?

I love to see what Brown has done this year. Got a feeling he'll become a top 5-6 paid DT as the market continues to reset every other year.

I'll be at the Birmingham Bowl watching Troy vs Duke. Went to Troy and grew up a UNC fan. Will be nice to hate on Duke for the day. Both teams playing without their head coaches so not sure how it will go.

take away Bryce's pick 6's and we are closer to the middle of the pack with scoring defense. and with how bad our offense is and them being out there all the time and the injuries They've done about as good as could be expected of them. 2-4 at home this year so hope to win one of them!

Yes. But we can’t help Fitterer made a bad deal. All we can do is hope to build around him

I know we aren’t a good team but I’m not ready to give up on Bryce yet. I don’t see why he can’t pan out to be a good game manager. Let’s get this man a speed WR and good guard to sure up the pocket(I’m not sure how Corbett will ever be) half our losses have been 1 possession game. I’m hoping for 7-10 next season and building towards the future.

Brown is stuck in his 5th year option unless he holds out or something. Doesnt seem like the type of guy that would though. I wish they separated LB between ILB and OLB. OLB contracts skew what ILB's make. Can't tag Luvu if you somehow work things out with Burns.

Fixed the WR room and took an Iowa TE because they tend to pan out. Also we now have depth at DT, G, and corner.

I just need round 2 and 3 picks to be day 1 starters not developmental guys. Imagine one of them being a WR. I know we need help at NT ,but I feel like thats a hard position to come in as a rookie and start day 1 for anyone who isnt a 1st round pick or Sweat for Texas. If we can't extend Luvu perhaps Trotter Jr. Troy Fautana could be plug and play Guard. Are we going to trust Corbett to come back again? I'd Love for Mays/ Nash to take the spot and run with it but dont trust them to. Got to keep the short guys pocket clean as we can in the middle so he has room to hop.

every week its the same people bashing, same people saying their done for the year, and yet every week the same keep coming back to the forum. #keeppounding.

I’m ready for mini camp at this point. I hope we hit on our draft picks but hearing all about the Bear’s options with our pick from February until the draft is going to be hard to listen to on every network.

He needs to part with Fitts now so the next group can try to get it together do actually do something with our day two picks next year.

I'll be listening on Sirius while doing yardwork. Will keep me distracted if it goes bad.

i'm hoping for 5-6 wins. Hope we can keep this decent defense and add to our offense. As bad as we are alot of our games have been a 1 score difference. Lets win those ones and i'd be happy

my dream pick would be Worthy from Texas. Also if we think the best guard in the class falls to that pick i'd be OK with that to protect Bryce for the long term. Also a true NT would be nice but i dont think Sweat from Texas will be there in the 3rd and too many other needs to take him at 33. If any team with 2 2nd round picks wanted to trade up for it i'd listen. We need as many day two picks as possible to try to get some talent on this roster. Lord knows as bad as our day 2 picks are our day 3 picks are even worse.

Yeah, would love to see them attack instead of getting bulldozed over. Starting to get onboard with the Icky to guard train. See how he does there next year. I feel like BC's tenure at left tackle has been better than Icky's performance this year. Got to get a speedster this offseason to threaten the deep play. Hoped that would be Chark but i was let down. (Worthy from Texas?)

I'm still hoping for 2 more wins. I need something positive to hope for. Hoping can win one between Titans/Packers than a divisional game. Hoping Horn can come back soon so can decide about that 5th year option.
