I wanted to fully clean house but my main question about adding a cap/contract guy, isn't Samir Suleiman still employed here? Thats entirely what hes done I thought.

Unfortunately being competitive and being a good dude doesnt mean you are nesscesarily going to be good at your job.

Yea, thats why i wont be especially happy with keeping Morgan. We need to totally clean house with anyone who had anything to do with building our current roster, down to the scouts.

I disagree that the slow down on gm search is a sign they want to keep Morgan. Its pretty clear the HC they pick will have an impact on what GM they pick.

I think being tight lipped is definitely a positive change. Not a great thing for us as fans who like hearing everything going on behind the scenes but I think from an organizational standpoint its a definite positive and will hopefully help drive out the circus atmosphere a bit.

Our roster sucks but to be fair its a blank slate to be built in to what a coach wants because no one on the offense especially is irreplaceable.

I think we have to have a receiver if not two that can stretch the field. If the secondary has no fear of a receiver getting behind them then they are always going to be able to jump underneath routes and secondary and linebackers first step can be towards the los to help stop the run. Youve got to have 1 if not 2 receivers that dbs respect and give space to.

I think you build around the qb. This coming season will tell if thats Bryce or someone else. Fix the oline and grab skill positions this offseason and design a cohesive scheme. If bryce doesnt improve next season then hes not the answer. As far as free agent wrs there arent many i like for us. We desperately need to add explosive players to our skill positions. Higgens or Evans arent that. You draft fast and quick receivers and stop worrying about size. We always seem to prioritize size for our receivers and that is an old school mentality. Fast/quick receivers that dbs respect could go over the top and just focus on creating space for them. I dont care about having big receivers that dont get seperation to try to throw jump balls to.

No one is going to give us anywhere near that for him anymore. It was 100% a misplay. If we franchise him and cant get a trade for him then its going to get ugly fast. He will 100% cause drama next year if he gets franchised and not traded.

Exactly, it puts them in a damned if you do, damned if you dont situation for absolutely no reason with no probable solution. It reminds me a lot of the same ignorant short sighted thinking that got Darnold's 5th year option signed.

The craziest thing to me is even after this past offseason when it was clear we werent going to get a deal done and the numbers were far apart, apparently 5 teams contacted us at the trade deadline and Fitt said he wasnt available. I mean wtf was he thinking.

I think he is 100% safe next season. If we actually had our #1 pick that might not be the case but here we are. You use this draft and offseason trying to add some explosive skill players and suring up the offensive line, then if bryce doesnt improve drastically next season then he's pretty much done.

He should feel that way. I definitely hope hes not our #1 priority unless its finding a way to franchise him and trade him. Luvu and DB are much higher priorities in my opinion.

So many excuses for and with this guy. First he says in the back of his mind he was playing not to get hurt (because allegedly he severely overvalued himself) which I take to mean he wasnt always giving 100%. So first off he blames his bad season on playing not to get hurt then later in the conversation he says he was playing hurt most of the season as the excuse for being bad. Just take accountability and move on.

I have a feeling Caldwell has a lot more do with the offense since Frank was fired.

He isn't that great at contested catches honestly. Not for his size and strength.

I was talking directly in comparisons to Metcalf. Metcalf doesnt play as big as he could either. It doesn't matter how big a player plays if they cant create any seperation. Thats not how nfl offenses are ran anymore.

I disagree to an extent. AJ and Metcalf looked pretty fast and explosive on tape. Mingo definitely didn't, and it shows. He just ran a decent 40 time. Which means nothing when the game starts if it doesnt show up there.

I can never get tweets to embed on mobile but we very well may end up the worst offense in the NFL in yards AND points. https://x.com/gregauman/status/1742253754873745637?s=20

I would say if we clean house (which we clearly should) then that will include most of our scouts as well.

I would trade our receivers for the wsh receivers in a heartbeat.

100% this. Everyone always wants to find someone to pin 100% of the blame on when there is plenty to go around. Im not sure why though, I guess because if you make one person the face of every problem then the problem seems easier to fix.

The only difference is the bad players we draft are a lot less athletic than the bad players we drafted when Rhule was here.

O definitely think you're overreacting. Even if he ends up a total bust we basically only throw away one more season.

Every year he has had a competent bookend he has been outplayed by said bookend.
