Simmons is the S I've been hoping we'd go after, I'm happy to hear we may have interest at least

They'll grab Justin Simmons, who it doesn't seem like we're in the market for anyway.

So you can explain how he was top 10....but won't.  We need to look it up ourselves? 

I googled it.  Can't find the argument based on stats and facts. 

Statistically he was top 10 in a lot of impressive areas after his benching. He was top 10 in passer rating, he was #1 in touchdown to turnover ratio, #6 in PFF passer grade, #1 in high difficulty throws completed, #1 in tight window throw completion rate. The only place he really lacked is the place most people look at QB stats, the yards. But he was near the top in the league in so many categories for that stretch that I am comfortable saying he was a top 10 QB for the latter half of 2024.

Also another stat I was surprised given his height, he was #1 (as in least) in batted down passes.

Why am I not surprised to see him supporting a company currently being sued for sex trafficking and covering up a child molestation ring?

Reich tried to bench him and was over ridden.  He came out of training camp knowing he was in a world of hurt.  His mechanics and footwork put him behind the 8 ball from the jump.  Even in the video posted he is still doing his jump throw.  Thats not going to consistently work in the nfl, hes got to clean that up.  We all are pulling for him but going into year 3 the excuses are in the rear view mirror.   With everything they have invested in bryce its time to win.

The jump pass doesn't bother me. Cam had an MVP season with people complaining about his footwork and back foot throws. The biggest thing to me that got Bryce over the hump was confidence. He went from never throwing beyond 5-10 yards to leading the league in big time throws after his benching. Once the confidence is there and Bryce is being the Bryce from Alabama, everything else is gravy.

Making sure he carries the confidence into next season is paramount. If he shows up scared we are fuged. We need to be giving him constant bjs all offseason to make sure he keeps a pep in his step.

You expecting to start hanging out?! lol 

Is that a problem?

I prefer Nalo but I don't know him well enough yet so I still use T-Mac.

Justin Simmons please. He's far better than the other options being discussed in here. He's more expensive but if we were supposedly trying to trade for Tee Higgens, then we can afford a better FS than Marcus Williams.

All of Sanders' bullshit might honestly be worth it if he were a superstar Lamar/Cam/Josh Allen type dynamic player. But he's a checkdown game manager with the personality that isn't justified by his skillset. Hard pass.

SMH you may want to research what UC is my dude. It’s definitely it a “butt ulcer”.

I did, it says ulcers in the colon (butt). I'm sorry he can't have indian food anymore.

From what I can tell from Jags fans on their forums, they plan to extend him with a new contract rather than use the option. The fifth year option would make him one of the highest paid LBs in the league and it's cheaper to just give him a new deal.

IMO its in Bryce's hands. Carolina has a top 15 pick in 2026 draft, then they choose QB, if not Bryce played well enough to keep them out of drafting high in the 1st again.

tbf Bryce was putting up enough points to have us 8-9 last year without a historically bad defense.

Ulcerative Colitis is not CTE. 

He started 2022 off well, got a concussion that kept him out for a month, and when he returned he sucked for the next year+. Maybe he got a butt ulcer during that time too but it seems pretty clear what actually happened.

If you're interested in developing our young guys like like 30 year old Jewell then you don't sign Shaq. If you're interested in putting the best team on the field, then you sign Shaq.

Rozeboom is shockingly bad and not much of an upgrade over Wooten or Cherelus.

Julius Peppers was criticized for taking plays off too. In the long run it means nothing and has no impact on the game. When he's catching clutch 3rd down passes you won't care that he "took off" a 1st down pass that went to Thielen.

People are forgetting how good Renfrow was with the raiders.  If healthy he's our second best receiver right now.  

 

 

 

He was absolutely fantastic... in 2021. Then in 2022 he got his brain scrambled on a slant route and sucked the rest of his career until he was cut.

It's definitely worth bringing him in to see if a miracle happened and the year off cures CTE, that would be great if it happens, but I don't expect much.

He's our fifth best WR as of this point, but good back-up for the slot if AT gets hurt again.

If you sell the board for less than 8 figures I will be looking into opening antitrust investigations

this place is absolutely dead compared to what it used to be.  what a shame

I think that's less to do with Zod being away and more that this is an old school format. Forums are a 90s/2000s thing. Everybody is on social media. Forums like this are for hyperfixaters who can't get enough by just scrolling Bluesky.

Who gets a flying frick. Why do we have to compare everyone. See what the guy can too before casting any judgement

This reminds me of a Kurb post, I'm seeing a lot of posting style parallels.

Thank you for not taking Milroe, losers

I like this guy's analysis. He calls TMac the best pick of round 1.

As an added bonus, the Falcons got the worst pick of round 1.
