Gets (Getts) even more complicated if we bring in a FA or two after more cuts are made League wide.

Those are always the most heart breaking cuts for me. Young guys think they made the team only to be cut before the season opener to sign a vet.

Well, just thinking...

Byrd, Bersin, Norwood, and maybe an outside chance of Garrett are definitely fighting for a spot. Cash and Jacobs are fighting for a spot.  Sandland, Simonson and Lucas are vying to be #3. Williams, McClain and Young are all trying to claw out of the bucket. Horton will likely make Delaire expendable. Artis-Payne looks to close out Wegher. And the Lee kid will punt Scifres to the curb. And if punter is excluded, step right up any safety not named Coleman or Boston.

Sounds about right.

Honestly if bersian was cut, not one team would claim him.

That's what's missing for everyone's thinking, what degree other teams are on some of players. Would not surprise me if Garrett made the team as a "red-shirt". I mean making the 10 man practice squad will be hard given this team.

    • 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.
