"Pricey" for C is considerably lower than any other OL position. Hence why it was so insanely stupid to spend the money we did on OG.

My translator says something quite a bit different. I think Canales stays as OC and it ends up getting him fired after the 2026 season.

Linderbaum is leaps and bounds better. That would be the C we have been looking for since Kalil retired.

Depends on price. He is a bottom third to quarter starter but he is a very valuable backup. If we can get him on a cheaper, backup deal I would love to keep him. If it comes to paying him starting NFL C money, he is 100% not worth that.

Sign me up for that poo. Give me that as a "floor."

What in the sweet fug is "havoc?"

He was not considered small back then. I have no idea where you are getting this.

Bryce Young has half the talent or less, however. That's an issue.

New England is just not a very talented team, I think that will catch up to them sooner rather than later. Stroud could attempt to give it away, though.

This has been one of the wildest offseasons for the coaching carousel in recent memory. @LinvilleGorge furiously trying to match Belichick with current NFL owners.

It was right at the end of his SF time. Hence why it makes zero sense to extend Bryce. If your ceiling is Alex Smith(Bryce has nothing near that as his ceiling) then there is no reason to invest in that. Let's focus on building a team for the future Pat Mahomes, not Alex Smith.

Eienne and Corbett should get Dave fired alone.

The issue is that Mays isn't appreciably better than Bozeman. It won't take much in terms of resources to find a solution there. We just keep ignoring it, which is somewhat understandable given what we have invested in the RG and LG. Linderbaum is a free agent. If he doesn't sign with Baltimore, throwing money his way would definitely improve the OL unit tremendously. In the 2027 offseason, there will likely have to be a wholesale overhaul of the OL unit anyway.

Smith didn't really pan out until his 7th year in the NFL.

He was much more bad than good, IMO.

That's one thing I have suggested several times, building a team that is actually attractive for a free agent QB.

https://overthecap.com/collective-bargaining-agreement/article/7/section/7 Is it at the start of the season or league year(March)? I am not 100% clear reading the language.

They haven't accepted that he is a backup QB yet.

I don't personally view that as a risk because I don't view him as an NFL starting QB. And although there haven't been many #1 overall picks to not get a 5th year option there have been ample first round QB's and first round picks overall. It's not a crazy outlier for the 1st round or even top 10.

He hasn't but you have to remember that we are talking from the "franchises perspective" when a lot of us are saying "earned." I don't think many of us actually want this to happen but this coaching staff, FO and owner are way more convinced.

That's much better than it sounded in text format. Not shutting it down completely is fair. Noncommittal answer.

That better not happen in an attempt to "get a good deal" before CJ's contract gets inked.

I don't see a lot to warrant all the backlash against Princely. Yes he has to be better as a player but history could end up being on his side. Aside from the previously stated stats, don't forget that Clowney had 9.5 sacks with Baltimore in 2023 and 8.5 sacks in Dallas this season. With Evero: 5.5 I so believe PART of what he is saying, that it is the coaching and scheme that limits pass rush pressure and ultimately sacks.

That is currently Justin Fields at $20 mil. Unfortunately, that isn't realistic. The contract to watch this offseason is Stroud's. More than likely he will ask for more or similar.
