My initial thoughts so far, since we won't be active in the early phase of FA...

 

 

We've brought the band back together for the most part. The only player of note from last year's team we're losing is Bell. We've at least signed another one in Oher, who "could" be an upgrade. We've kept all of our other guys, some who could have a bright future like Fozzy. Continuity could be nice, especially on the DL by bringing back both vet DTs for spot duty. We've also brought back Ginn, who at least instantly upgrades Special Teams (a damn achilles heel last year if there ever was one) and if nothing else, offers a fast guy to stretch the field and open up the middle for Olsen, KB, and check downs. 

 

All small potatoes? Sure. But last year, we couldn't retain our own...so there's a silver lining of progress in there, although granted, last year's FA crop from the team was better. But just bringing back last year's team, which finished on a high note, while continuing to get healthy (Cam never was) and having the young guys improve is enough to win this division IMO. Now, hopefully adding some gems in the draft or a surprise Mike Mitchell level guy in FA (#2 WR perhaps?), it's time to leave no doubt on the road to 3 straight division titles. Get it done, Gettleman.

Hardy signs Panthers mega-deal at 4:05p. Huddle crashes. All-Pros get to keep Huddling. All-Pro subs go up 2000%.

Igo has been playing you guys this whole time. [emoji111]️

 

Don't get their hopes up. But this place would be much quieter without the kids. During the season we should have an AP Monday and lock out the kids.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
