Seems relevant given we've been linked to him a bit.

"Versatile USC outside linebacker-safety Su’a Cravens is under consideration as a potential first-round draft pick.

Cravens visited and worked out for the Atlanta Falcons. He also visited the New Orleans Saints, Carolina Panthers and Detroit Lions.

Cravens displayed his athleticism at his campus Pro Day workout, running the 40-yard dash in 4.54.

He excelled in linebacker and defensive back drills and caught the football well.

The New England Patriots, Falcons, Carolina Panthers, Buffalo Bills, Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers have all displayed interest in Cravens."

kinda smelling like Shaq 

Yep.  Seemed like about a week or so out last year a lot of arrows started pointing toward Shaq being our guy after some whispers all along.  Might be happening again.  If we're gonna do it, I hope we view Cravens as a SS.

Joseph is getting alot of first round run now. Is another area of need.

Never seen us linked with him at all and he's been linked with a ton of teams. I don't know that he's in play for us but I do like him.

Gettleman likes guys with ideal to plus size for their respective position.  Not saying Joseph isn't a really good player, he just doesn't seem like a Gettleman guy.

Yeah I don't even know if he would take VH3 if he fell and was available at 30. I mean I think he would but I'm really not sure because he seems to value size so much that he may not even be on our board.

I'd MUUUUUUCH rather have Joseph, someone who has excelled at his prospective position, than Cravens.  I'd be ok with Cravens in the 2nd, but wouldn't be excited about the pick.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
