QB: Cam Newton

RB: Jonathan Stewart

FB: Kyle Juszczyk

WR: Kelvin Benjamin

WR: Devin Funchess

WR: Victor Cruz

TE: Greg Olsen

LT: Matt Kalil

LG: Andrew Norwell

C: Ryan Kalil

RG: Trai Turner

RT: Michael Oher

 

DE: Charles Johnson/Julius Peppers

DT: Star Lotulelei

DT: Kawann Short

DE: Mario Addison/Kony Ealy

WLB: Thomas Davis

MLB: Luke Kuechley

SLB: Shaq Thompson 

CB: James Bradberry

CB: Darryl Worley

NB: Captain Munnerlyn

SS: Barry Church

FS: Kurt Coleman

Would you have restored faith in Gettleman?

Solid lineup, but I would add a 2nd TE into your  depth chart because I believe Ed Dickson contributes more to helping this team lose games than win. I hope we find a 2nd TE in FA even if they plan on drafting one in April. Also, I think there will be better safety options than Barry Church.

I agreee 100% with you on both points. There is no shot they pay Bennett and I think they look at Cook again, but his playoffs will put him out of their price range. There are better safeties than Church but they will only have so much cap space. In this scenario they are bringing back Short, Addison, and CJ. Also at the same time are brining in Kalil, Jusczyzk, Cruz, Peppers, Captain, and a safety. That is 6 free agent signings.

Not really. I am not a big Kalil fan. I'd rather have Beachum, but honestly I don't know how healthy either of them are right now. Kalil had 1 good year, 5 years ago. Beachum was solid for a few years as recently as 2015 before he tore his ACL. I'd take the chance that Beachum is two years removed from the ACL and can get back to his 2014/2015 form over Kalil getting back to his 2012 form.

Also, Peppers is meh to me. I want a stud DE in the draft or two.

Yea I don't get the obsession with Kalil at all. 

Based off what I've read about him I'd like to take a swing at acquiring Ricky Wagner from B-more if we can afford him. He seems to be a damn good RT. If he could move to LT even better but I'm down for upgrading both tackle spots.

    • Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.   
    • I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?
    • If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
