Was hoping to bring Griffin in but this could be better in long run. He would have been our big ticket acquisition.

I don't know bout that. Lance or Fields could slip. Not far though. Someone could trade up if either makes it to 5.

Or draft. DT and Corner are obvious needs going into draft. Both positions are prime for a rookie to come in and make an impact.

Called this. My take was he looked decent in Minnesota then fell into the pit of despair that is the Jets. Interior Jack of all trades with extensive center experience. Depth on the oline is very crucial. He provides depth at three positions.

You know who Mac Jones reminds me of? Gardner Minshew. The first read is usually his best. Give Minshew Bamas playmakers and oline and I bet ya he would have killed. That said much like Mac his lack of arm strength limits him. Minshew and Mac both have surprising scramble ability. Surprise is the asset because neither have elite athleticism. Mac is a little taller 6' 3" instead of 6' 1" and Gardner actually is a bit better built. Mac's 216 odd pounds with the infamous dad bod selfies compared to Minshew having a fairly solid stocky 225. Just saying Mac for all his hype could end up parlaying his business degree and Bama glory days into a better career than his NFL one.

I disagree I feel the Watson trade would be desperate. An all in move when the ultimate gain of gamble may fall short.

I really dig this draft and free agency. Brown would be a solid MLB. Griffin is my favorite free agent corner. I'm hoping Fitterer has some kinda inside track with him. I'd rather trade up with Miami than go all I'm on Watson. That rookie contract for a QB is a proven route to success. I think Leatherwood, Hill and Smith could plug the gaps on the oline and give us a young group to grow together. Trill looks like a Legion Of Boom 2.0 guy. Only pick I'd possibly switch is the double safeties. Cisco is one of my favorite players too. I'm hoping Chinn works into that safety spot. So maybe a wr or TE there at 220. I like the way your thinking though. Would be very happy with this result.

JJ III is a prize free agent. Him and Chinn would be one of the best young safety pair in the NFL.

stop making sense. Don't wake the dreamers.

Too bad the Jets have all the ammo to trade for Watson. A top three pick so the Texans can get their new victim and Selah is exactly the kind of coach Watson wants to play for. Jets can revamp the offense in one season. Watson, Harris or Etienne and a healthy free agency budget.

If this year is any indication the QB carousel is not stopping anytime soon. There will be other qbs available that no one saw coming "Aaron Rodgers?" I don't see Watson as the make or break trade situation many on here do.

Perfect picks for trenches depth. Oline and dline is deep this year.

If Mac is the option we need to trade down and draft a oline. Honestly Jones is a solid prospect. People are hating on him, but he had a lights out season. I'd take Jones over Lance. It's all to do with scheme for and floor vs ceiling. Yeah, Lance has a higher ceiling but his floor is bust basement. Jones on the other hand seems serviceable and think Brady and Rhule could make him Teddy but with a little more youth and daring.

How bout a home and away helmet? Dark panther grey matte helmet for home. Old school grey metal flake for away. Use the blue as complimentary color. Black out home games. Color rush blue is ok. Home grey with white jersey. It's doable.

Go kiss a goat.

I hope miami is intent on stockpiling draft picks. I can definitely see a scenario where Lawrence and Wilson go one and two. Trading up to 3 will be cheaper than any plausible Watson trade. No extra players like Chinn or Burns to deplete our roster. A first swap, a first and second next year and Teddy Bridgewater could seal the deal. I like Fields he has the physical tools and played against top competition. More battle tested than Wilson and Lance and more athletic than Mac and more refined than Mond.

We should trade him for a disgruntled QB.

I think Marcus will be a lil cheaper but is also young and the ball hawking free safety to go with chinn ( who plays safety like a linebacker) JJIII is a prize of free agency. We get him I would be happy too.

I hope Marcus Williams is on our radar if the "cap wizards" of the Taints can't get him back.

Rebuilding.

Couple years ago would have jumped at the chance to sign Rudolph. Now not so much. Pairing him with Teddy Bridgewater would have made sense at the time. But with TB likely on his way out, I would rather pair our young QB of the future with his own TE running partner.

This is awesome news. TD and Olsen are class act guys.

My post was realism.

I agree. Until it happens or doesn't I would support a moratorium on the whole thing. It's boring. It's insulting. The media is basically saying we are desperate for attention and relevance. It's also insinuating we can't build a winning franchise without overpaying for other franchises players.

It's all speculations. It's all click bait. But I'm legitimately worried that Tepper is a knee jerk impatient twit like half of our fellow fans. Difference is they are ineffectual twats and Tepper actually signs the checks so he can make things happen (even if he shouldn't) I just feel they could wait two years into a rebuild before we start making drastic decisions. It's a slippery slope. Say we go big trade for the prize, off season hero's and everyone is talking bout how Carolina is ready for the spotlight. Then not surprisingly for me we fall short, say divisional playoff loss.. Then a couple years down the line after the shine of Watson and likely Rhule has faded we are looking for a new head coach and QB. It's kinda ironic that the road to mediocrity could be trying to take a shortcut to success.
