Lol this is crazy deal for Seattle. Cost of howell vs Bryce, ouch.

Austin Reed is a name to watch. All the dude did was put big numbers for 4 years. Came in after Zappe and they didn't miss a beat his 1st year. Took a step back last year which has knocked him off the radar. Dude went to DII and as a RS freshman, just lead the team to a championship and was great in 2021. In the championship game, he broke the yards record for the champ game in the 1st half and TD record in the second. Dude just balled out all year in 2019. In 2 years 7.4k and 78 tds total (think it was 12 rushing). Goes to WKU and the year after Zappe is drafted in 2021, just continues with video games numbers in 2022. 8k in the 2 years, but 4.7k in 2022 (in 13 games) and 3.3k last year. 71 tds, but again 40 in 2022 and 31 in 2023. Good not great 2023, but that 2023 is magic. Best QB at the shrine bowl by a mile. I'm down for our 7th for the guy, but expect he's gone before then now.

And this is what is super scary with a young QB we have

So you mean year one of the Mitch and Kenny experience. Yeah no doubt he didn't light up the stat sheet. that was Bryce bad QB play. Hell y'all basically just took the air out of the ball and methodically used Johnson as an extension of the run game and ran it down our throats in 2022. I wouldn't trust Mitch either. Don't think it's a coincidence his play and output dropped in 2022 after big Ben retired. He was the leading receiver in yards what 3 straight years, and wasn't in all the games. He's what we lack and everyone wants: big play potential. If healthy he took the top off the defense for years, and that speed isn't gone. Now can our QB get him the ball...... Remains to be seen, and if not it's going to be ugly. Johnson's catch and retreat move is gonna piss us all off for damn sure. Jackson is going to frustrate you. He loves to make a play and then later give up a huge one, game after game.. we both are trading for potential and unloading our underperforming guys here. Think Jackson has a better outcome as he won't be asked to be a #2 CB for you all. We likely ask Johnson to be a top 2 WR and want him as the #1 as it stands today. Hope for us he's motivated to perform for the next contract.

I'm not exactly thrilled but as a wild card on offense where we sucked. Wide range of outcomes for him. Cause this is a swap it's the one move that likely cost nothing in cap or personnel with the highest chance to move the needle. I'm not convinced it does though.

Well, one bad contract of another. Johnson has potential to be top 10 WR. but man he already started the on the field post Pittsburgh AB antics in Pittsburgh with a questionable QB. Idk this could get really spicy. Let's hope we can feed him and keep him happy, cause of so we likely are doing worlds better than last year in the passing game.

Damn makes us miss ol hurndog who was at his best average go slightly above. Like this is all bad hurney years without 1st rounders too. And yeah ol hurndog had his hand in this poo show too

So we have meh center, a LT that looked absolutely lost, a RT that's paid a mint and average last year so we go set the market for OG to start his contract. I get we need help, but if we are going to put 27 mill for a OL guy this year, why inside and not LT and just accept icky at LG. If yearly average of over 20mill for the 1st 3 years .... Also of all positions OG typically is the easiest to find in a draft for cheap. That said hunt is a former 2nd round pick so shows good one come early too. Good Hunting

Eh that's a little much for him but dang no ones left!

A new owner that clears the FO. Coach, give him a little time. But this start to FA, resigning players, cuts and trades has been a disaster. But its all the expected with the Teppers at this point

Glad we walked mister out and had the great brass ball Teper take control. Tep took a playoff caliber team and turned into this glorious roster. He is turning us into a ufl juggernaut and NFL clown show.

So how does passing on that rams offer look now...........

Give me Zack Frazier. Guy is a 100 gritty guy. His last play he threw his team mate last the sticks for a first down. Oh and broke his leg on the play. But instead of getting a time runoff due to injury, he end up crawling his way to the sideline. https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/news/the-perfect-fit-for-the-panthers-at-no-33 And he's a damn good player on top of grit and team first play like that. He has a ton of snaps too at a high level too. I get the hype to powers and svp. But the guy I really like is Frazier.

Yeah, smells of "last guy sucked, this mess was his, don't blame me". Seen this in workplaces far too often.

GIVE ME ROBINSON! Still at 285, 6'5 , 34" arms with a sub 5.00 and 35 vert. Good 10 yard split. Let Fiske take the glory, give me D Rob. And Eric Watts making money tonight after a solid senior bowl practice week.

Erick all is a name to watch for sure Sucks he's never healthy. But early reports were from iowa was he is better than laporta.

I'm not going to say we must/need/should sign him. Long term it makes it hard to sustain if everything fell into place. Too many holes to fill just in 1 year. Too many staff questions too. If everything worked sure be a great story for all. So to work a lot must happen. If we could flip Bryce for a low 1st/2nd, it's not an atrocious idea even if it's a 3 year rental as you take swings later years at QB. The additional pick would need to hit (id eye DB/rusher with the extra pick) We don't know what we have with mingo/smith/tmj. MANY are down on all of them. I have issue with last year as judgement on them. Concepts, QB, line all really made that a really hard eval. Still would like a rook this year and move chark money somewhere else. Our line looked better when we had more than short concepts in 2022 and the outliner Dalton game. Still need more out of the interior parts though. There are 4 centers this year that have high floors and should not all go before our 3rd. This year is LOADED at OT get one! Kick icky inside and sorted a lot. Also we have depth/starters that can comeback and fill the interior too With a full load of picks, team have gone worst to 1st in the NFC South fast, and rebuilt fast. With HC connections, the promise of Russell on a cheaper deal could pull a Evans. That pairing with AT looks a lot different than the trash now. With a top pairing Russell should look manageable. This doesn't fix the leaky D though. I think some of that is horn and lack of a 2nd pass rusher. Would also need to find a true NT if we want to keep with the 3-4. Also have to retain burns and luvu to have any chance. Overall, it's 1 in a million it works for the big prize. Think it puts playoffs as the expectation, for better or worse. I wouldn't do it but the Teppers swing big so who knows.

Rouse from OU, Jones from Texas fit the bill imo. Both currently undervalued. Iirc both have lots of snaps/starts under their belts. I don't get the reason Rouse went from a mid/2nd tier OT prospect last year to now a late or UDFA guy. Their film is pretty ok/good. Is it prospect fatigue?

Add in 2 more Roman Wilson- athlete turned receiver. He is smaller though. Now can really run routes and improved his coordination and not a drop machine. Creates separation multiple ways. Benden Rice. Think he is seriously being slept on. He may be the guy that wows at the combine at his size/speed combo. He's had drops and route issues at USC. Not the best cuts in routes. Can get vertical and burn with the best in the class. Can get physical at the line too. Bit odd but not a RAC/YAC monster.

EH, LT>RT=C>LG>RG. LT is king, center and the other tackle matter more than either guard spot imo. the center can help so much with line calls with the QB to cover interior sins if they can ID what the defense is trying to do. i'm all aboard the C train this year with the top 3 guys being really good. LT is deep this year though too. If we are willing to move Icky inside, things could get interesting. Patrick Paul, Tyler Guytun and Jordan Morgan might be there at 33. 3 late tackles: Javon Foster, Christian Jones and Walter Rouse are in play and like D williams, likely could see the field in 2025. The guards this year are meh, likely better to go find a OT to convert, but wont be on the field for us this year.

so the really bad part: we are light overall talent. outside the QB, we have really huge holes. OLine, yuck, Dline is not terrible but is about to be depleted or overpaid. the secondary eh, lb are eh too. then the RB is JAG and WR are not even that. we are miles off. now if we had reid, spags, baby goat....... maybe we max out in rnd 2. otherwise we are really not close to the last 8 teams, much less the 2 here tonight. i would say san fran has second stringers that would start and play well here from their Dline, WR, RB, Oline, and secondary. KC has 2 good lines and a good DB group that has 2nd stringers that start here. we are that far off.

kyle shanahan needs to be OC, or have an OC that can over rule him. cause they again let one go that should not have. It wasnt brock or ryan at fault either loss. Maybe like his dad, Kyle gets it after this one, but idk. like his pops, run the ball with TD got 2 SBs and elway made the plays they needed. could rode the offensive player of the year and a good/great line to this one too. Also had 3 bad breaks tonight, CMC fumbled, the punt hitting a cover guy, blocked PAT. idk how thats brock. brock did more than enough tonight.

correct. thats also a really young group to. also correct. he is top 3 right now. for him, he never really clicked as a HC.

it wasnt on wilks tonight. shanny again got cute. part of the wild thing with shanny: he refused to mix it up with the running backs. they had the chiefs on skates alot and didnt just keep pounding it. brock made a some good throws, though he missed some easy ones that cost them TOP and stopped drives. really the end of the 3rd and 4th, KC finally found ways to get the ball moving. Steve did his part for 60 minutes. now the last drive in OT, steve screwed the pooch. he basically accepted them walking down the field with that soft poo where a stop ends it. played for allowing a FG and got burned.

kelce was a few yards short of 100 for the game, and 9 catches most of them after halftime. yeah Kelce is still the dude for baby goat to throw to.
