    Of course, you build through the draft, but you don't reach for players when you have most of you issues addressed in free agency.  

    When you go BPA, you should get quality players every time. 

    That is the key--however, as it looks right now, we have to take LT. That could change, and I am sure Morgan is working on it.

    I feel like XL is square peg round hole with Bryce.  I feel like he could thrive with a QB who pushes the ball down field and can throw a slant

    I get it.  He has gotten better running routes, but he is just out of position as a WR so often.  Are his routes consistent?  I still think he could start getting it, but the light is dimming.

  3. Metchie had a great year when Bryce won the heisman.  He gives the Panthers some deep options.  He does not have to catch passes if he can keep the safeties honest, but I expect him to post his highest numbers here.  I imagine he is signing for vet min, and probably was coerced by Bryce.  

    I have not given up on XL like some here, but I am frustrated and pissed off about his play.  

    I now doubt we draft a WR, but there are so many uncertainties (Coker's health, XL's play, Metchie, etc). 

  4. I don't see this WR on  1-year deal causing us to cut a first round pick that we drafted with knowledge that he was very raw.  On any WR corps, there is always one guy who is injured.

    Tremayne may be the odd man out--PS until needed.

    TMAC, Coker, XL, Metchie, Horn, Tremayne

    I think our draft intentions are becoming more clear.  T, S, DT, LB, TE, C.  Heard it here first.

    Problem is we really don’t use TEs and even if we did Bryce limits the opportunities our TEs have. 

    I could argue (not knowing if I am right or not) that the fact that we have not used the TE much is based on talent, not strategy.  We ran some multiple TE sets last year to improve the run game (which is why I am Skeptical that Tremble is cut) but we need a threat that can block

    So decent stopgap? I still want us to draft a center. It is long overdue.

    I think we will draft a C who will play a reserve roll for part of the year if not the entire season.  I think Kalil did that.  It has been long overdue.  Our guards are in their primes and we have a need at LT and a 32-year old RT.  If we draft 2 eventual starters at C and T, we can start replacing the Guards and RT in the next two drafts--Since I do not see the C being drafted before the third round, I think this was Morgan's best move, considering how limited he was (cap, talent), on a smaller scale. Lloyd is next.  That was a surprisingly good deal, imo.

    I’m glad I’m not the only one that does this. 
     

    Walker/Decker solves a lot of our problems. Walker means Ickey moves to the inside or RT. Decker gives us time to evaluate him when healthy.

    Signing either of those gives us an opportunity to add more peripheral players and truly go BPA in the draft. If I’m Morgan I am signing one of them tonight.

    Well, if I am the other person, that does not make you normal.  😄  I am just a visual person.  

  8. He supposedly has slow feet.  Good run blocker (decent).  Are they going to play him at reserve guard?  I hope so.  He was playing RT in seattle, fwiw.  Maybe depth behind Moton if not G?  Swing T?

    I can tell you that I heard OL coach Gilbert works specifically with tackles.  Someone else works with the guards and someone else works with centers.  (Sorry to be so specific).  Maybe he sees something in this guy he can fix.

    76/89 rated OT. I’m hearing people say he’s one of the worst OT’s they’ve seen 

    He surrendered 11 sacks in 465 passing snaps.  Last in the league (89/89).  Raiders OL was dogshit. 

    Camp body, swing T best case scenario.

    Look at the sacks and the pressures.  I have seen Walmart greeters stop more people.   image.thumb.png.1094e119f6e0d792c13461c7b7353f97.png
