It's a one year deal, however.

Goalie is gonna rear it's head sooner or later. If an option presents itself, it would be hard not to jump on it. Kochetkov doesn't seem like he will end up being more than a backup.

You might want to go back and re-read that original post, dogg. You didn't read it correctly. As for BC, the market spoke and there was even an ESPN article predicting him as a 6th or 7th tier FA OL and being worth slightly less than we signed him for. He is great for us as a backup but literally not a single NFL team views him as anything but a backup OL for VERY obvious reasons.

Yeah, I mean 19th pretty much says it all. It's time to plan for the future. Mays is a backup level C/OG. That's great for us because he can join BC down there and help us stay deep.

?? I mean, how much more recognition do you need than being in the top 5 in OG contracts in the NFL?

I wish but his drafts are very Fitterer-esque.

I think we have to eventually get serious about getting a real center. None of those guys mentioned are legit top 15-20 NFL centers. Mays is a BC-esque backup, where is value is maximum. Corbett is really an OG playing out of position and we know BC is a utility depth piece. We have a ton of roster needs over the next 2-3 offseasons/drafts but we should finally get a Day 1-2 center drafted, IMO. OT's are as you say, we could be set there or we could be heading towards a reset. TBD. I just hope we don't lose our focus on keeping the trenches strong. On BOTH sides of the ball, for that matter. I am concerned that with our constant changing of coaches and GM/FO guys that will get fuged up.

Hunt is a little overrated by the fans because he is a bruiser and plays very physically like Andrew Norwell did. IMO, Lewis is the more consistent of the two OG's overall. But, the addition of those two guys turned that unit around completely. That isn't debatable. Remains to be seen how that works out in the long term, given it runs counter to almost all roster building theory to have most of your OL money in the two OG's.

I think we will be forced to finally address it when Corbett gets injured again this season. Hate to predict that but it has been very constant.

Easily the worst in the NFL for years now.

I don't think Mingo didn't fit due to "scheme." He literally just isn't an NFL player.

It is true. He gets up for a Ruskie goalie for whatever reason.

Bobs and their goonery concern me. Especially with adding king goon in Marchand. They really are such a hateable team.

A 3.3% INT rate versus a 2.9% INT rate? I would say that is pretty much right on par. Darnold averages 0.55 fumbles/GM and Fitzpatrick 0.51 fumbles/GM.

He is a poor man's Ryan Fitzpatrick. Yes he can get hot for stretches but more playing time reveals he is a backup QB only.

He is a bum. Anyone who had seen NFL QB's for more than a couple of seasons can easily ID that.

Not saying you are wrong but Baker had a ton of success prior to us and Darnold was a massive bust. Basically the best he has ever been was last season on an insanely loaded roster with an insanely loaded coaching staff. He is a bum.

One could argue the same for Goff(far better than Jimmy G, mind you). I think fans often get enamored with the Tier 2 and even Tier 3 QB's at times. Hell, portions of our fanbase are STILL fooled by Sam Darnold, despite him bombing so badly here.

I would counter that although he is certainly not Hurts/Jackson, Purdy is pretty mobile. Surprisingly so, at times.

100%. I may not think a lot of him as a player but I am happy for him as a person for getting that bag. Especially as Mr. Irrelevant. Great story, even if he doesn't get to the ultimate NFL heights.

I don't think people here want to be in QB purgatory. We have been pining for a superstar like Cam again.

I mean....his 2025 cap figure was like $5 mil. This smacks of bad reporting, TBQH.

Not sure where you are getting that from. That is a $53 mil AAV which would be in the back half of the top 10 in pay.
