Free agency not the draft will be the key this off season

its time to start cashing over money in free agency and stop dollar store shopping.

 

Lets look at the last 4 SB winners, Broncos built almost entirely through FA, Patriots brought in Revis, Browner and Amendola, Seahawks brought in Harvin, Bennett and Avril, Ravens had Boldin.

 

We can't rely on and expect rookies to come in and contribute right away on a Superbowl caliber team.

Alshon Jeffery.  And yes Im well aware we have Funchess and KB next year this guy could take it to the next level with our WR play.  

we have to pay KK, Star, and at the least the franchise tag for Josh- no way we are signing Alshon unless he forgets who he is and signs at a ridiculous cheap contract - not happening

Sometimes the allure of winning the Lombardi a very real possibility can change peoples minds on how they want to be paid.  Not saying we are getting a discount, but perhaps a team friendly deal the first year and backload the contract?

      I think Canales goes before Young in that scenario.

      Joe Person: Panthers are NOT expected to extend Bryce Young before the 2026 season

      But that's the point, if the locker room feels that way, then you're going to upset them by still keeping Bryce around and playing him over the Top 10 pick, as opposed to bringing in a vet to start until the rookie is ready. Again, it goes one of 3 ways... 1. Bryce plays well enough to earn an extension 2. Bryce still sucks and we draft his replacement who starts Week 1 with a new QB as his backup 3. Bryce still sucks, we draft his replacement in the 1st, but they start the season backing up a new vet QB who was brought in to be his mentor. With an OUTSIDE chance at a 4th option where Bryce plays well enough to convince the team to let him play out the 5th year option and then make a decision.  Which I can't see it happening, but there is still a non zero chance of that happening I guess. The only way we draft a QB next year and still have Bryce on the roster, is if we're taking someone in the middle rounds hoping to develop them as a long term backup to Bryce.

      I hear you. But I am not absolving Legette just because he is from my neck of the woods or anything else.  Tge comment was more about the fans uneven application of blame.  I do agree that there is a noticeable disconnect between him and the QB and that he might do better with a more polished and capable delivery man.  Abd don’t feel that they used XL right, or at least how I expected it to look.  And that could be a function of a reticent WB that shies away from that style of attack. I mean it was either him or Canales that pretty much eliminated downfield from the playbook - even while we see guys running free at times. It Could work if they commit to it.  Whoever isn’t committing.
