Rams trading for Faulk.

Could you not say this about every team in the league. He must not want to play anywhere because he isn’t anywhere else?

Oh don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying we should draft him. I’m just saying don’t expect him to be there with our 2nd round pick. I personally like Fields outside of Lawrence...

He won’t make it to the 2nd round.

Damn didn’t think about this...

As long as we address other issues like our line/secondary/linebackers then I will be ok with it.

No. I want someone who can play the next decade for us for that kind of capital. Watson or Mahomes, maybe Allen. I’d rather trade next year’s first and draft Fields.

Why would they want Anderson? He was great in our system, but off and on as a Jet which is the direction Houston is heading. Plus he isn’t on a rookie contract. If we do trade him, we better sign Samuel or Fuller ASAP.

Much less likely to get traded, older, more expensive.

So he probably wasn’t the driving force behind the Adam’s trade?

Was the Adam’s trade Fitterer or Schneider. I was under the impression Fitts was more involved on the draft/scouting side in Seattle?

Love it, but we are in dire need of some linebackers once Shaq is gone.

Would explain why Teddy unfollowed us... However, I’ll believe it when I see it.

Unless Shanahan likes Teddy. Honestly with that defense/offensive line/head coach he might be solid for them. He still will miss the deep balls like Jimmy G did...

I could see that, but replacing Watson with Darnold can’t get the fans excited...

They would mainly want CMC to fill the seats and he can be an incredible check down for a rookie QB. Not sure if they do, but this would be the only reason I can think of,

Good call! He has quite the dead cap hit the next couple years. I just assumed with him being the highest paid RB that he would be a big contract to move.... Looks like it would only really come in to help in 24 and 25... Definitely leaning on the side of keeping him more now. Hurney has me always worried about our salary cap.

I think we only add CMC if it lets up keep a Burns or Brown. We can find a lesser version of him and save a ton of money. I’d say we use Rodney Smith and draft another one late.

I’ve seen Watson hold the ball too long (usually when he has no one open). He is 25 and still is developing and is currently one of the top QBs in the league as is. Imagine how good he can be in a couple more years. The great QBs (Brady, Rodgers, and Brees) also hold the ball, but usually have top lines to protect them which I think is part of your point. I’m hoping you are saying Teddy can be “better” as in better than he was last year and not better than Watson. Watson behind an average line is 1000x better than Teddy behind an All Pro Line.

If the Jets get Watson, then the Texans will draft Wilson at 2. It doesn’t really change anything for us. Whoever gets a QB, another team has to lose that QB which gives them a need.

He is just depth at this point. He can prove me and others wrong in camp and limited action and I’ll be happy. We should approach it like we have no LT though.

Much better than the usual mega contracts to aging veterans. I’m liking what I’m seeing so far. In the past we wouldn’t have even tried for Watson...
