No Star or KK. Seems like they both may be on the outs with management. Putting the 2014 and 2015 first round picks as the captains for the future. Byrd is not making it unless Ginn is done as the return man. If that is the case, we will see Joe Adams all over again with Byrd. No one trusts him to field a punt at the critical point of a game never mind the playoffs or SB.

So the guy who they just picked up a 5th year player option on is in the outs with management? Care to explain?

doesn't pass the smell test.

1) byrd isn't eding out ginn as punt returner or fozzy as kick returner barring a miraculous three game stretch

2) shaq is great but he's going against keuchly, luke, and CJ as defensive guys

3) kelvin is great but by all accounts he's one of the most soft-spoken guys on an offense stacked with vets

team captains aren't bound by position any longer, but on a team with cam, kalil, luke, and TD as locks for team captains the math just isn't there for all of those guys and the odds stack up against more than maybe one of them transcending their skill and leadership tier.

Go tard somewhere else. Star is a staple. I guess some people need blinking lights and a bright sign to realize something

    • 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.
    • 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. 
    • 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.
