Jay Roosevelt

I can't see us keeping more than 6 WRs: 1. Tet McMillan (LOCK) 2. Xavier Legette (LOCK) 3. Adam Thielen (LOCK) 4. Jalen Coker (BETTER DAMN WELL BE A LOCK) 5. Jimmy Horn, Jr. (near-lock based on special teams value alone) 6. Hunter Renfrow (likely gets the nod over David Moore) What's going to be interesting is how they end up splitting the reps come the regular season. All six of those guys can contribute significantly. If I had to guess I'd say Horn likely gets the short end on game day, outside of being our primary returner.

I'm sorry, but this is not a "shocking" release. I half-expected us to cut him back in March after we signed Rozeboom. I'm a Trevin Wallace fan and think he can be a solid player for us, but he's far from proven. I also have serious doubts about Rozeboom, so I'm not saying ILB isn't a pretty massive need right now, but to act like Jewel being cut is some huge shock is a little weird, IMO. And I didn't even realize he was as hurt as he apparently is. I expect us to add another veteran before the season, but realistically this is a hole we're just going to have to work around until the offseason.

Not cheating here. My guesses... 1. Ryan Kalil 2. Ricky Manning, Jr. 3. Josh Norman 4. Mike Minter

Chau Smith-Wade pulling up to training camp like...

The Hornets were screwed when they lost out on the #1 pick. Outside of Cooper Flagg this was a terrible draft class full of risky prospects and red flags. Kon Knueppel likely won't ever be a superstar - or even a star, realistically - but he can be a solid contributor for a long time in the league. That's actually more than I think will end up being the case for many of these players.

Coverage skills I can understand, but you'd think solid tacklers would be less rare than they are. That's a pretty basic skill for someone to learn if they're playing defense, at any age.

I don't understand why it's so rare to find a safety that can both tackle and cover. I guess because the ones who can tackle get moved to linebacker early in their careers and the ones who can cover are moved to corner, but you'd still think more of them would stick at safety than do.

We need to quit being "interested" in signing a safety and actually sign one of them.

He's still unsigned, due to injury I think. He should be able to play this year, but I think teams are just waiting for more clarity before signing him.

I agree with this. ASJ would be another good option.

I mean I almost feel like we have to at least make an offer. Unless he's asking insane money it's worth a shot. Granted, we'd have the most fragile pair of Pro Bowl corners of all time, but they'd be sick when healthy.

I feel like we have some depth; we just need that proven nickel. Mike Jackson is a decent #2, but ideally we'd have a proven veteran in the slot. Smith-Wade might be able to fill that role, but he's far from a sure thing.

If this is true I don't hate it. We could definitely use "some Miami" on this team. It's something we've lacked since Cam left. And in the 6th round, I feel like we're adding a really good return specialist if nothing else by picking JHJ.

I agree, but stranger things have happened.
