Im starting to get worried that Hurney is about to ruin the core of this team. We are on the verge of losing both Norwell and Star, and with very little capspace to make a impact signing.

 

When you sit back and look at reality, we are weak at multiple positions DT/DE/DB/S/WR/G/RB.

 

Going to be an interesting week for Mr.Hurney, we shall see the end result.

With Olsen's age, I would add TE.

Hopefully something similar to how Gettleman addressed it. Plug some holes with middle of the road to low tier FA in preparation to go BPA in the draft. 

That is all we can do.  Take a look at free agency:

We must have a DE--expect that to cost $10m+ if we do not get Pep back.

Economically, We should get a G and a S-we can best afford average players at those positions.  Money gone.

But we have these huge contracts for players like Ryan Kalil who has played 14 games in 2 years.  Marty says he will not be emotional, but this is a great example.  Good teams send Ryan Kalil packing.  Marty's blindspot and Kalil knew it.  He announced that this is his last year, probably knowing Marty would back off. Ryan has not played at a pro bowl level for some time, but his paycheck suggests otherwise.  With so many needs and Larsen and Van Roten signed, we could use Kalil's salary in free agency.  Marty will not do it.

Hurney and everyone else are on their way out once this team is sold.  They're all going to try and go out in style and win the Super Bowl.  Don't be surprised if you start seeing future draft picks slung around in trades.

Interesting point.  However, Hurney is going to try  to impress the new ownership, so going all in may not be his strategy.  I do not trust him, and before, when his back was against the wall, he started trading away first rounders like they were nothing.  That led to some dark times.

Personally, I DESPISE Marty Hurney.  Some of his decisions are terrible. However, I will say that I understand both of the trades he has made--KB and DW.  (KB trade was stupid because of the timing--you do not trade your #1 WR for future draft picks during a playoff run--especially if you are the interim GM).

I think we all know were the Worley situation was heading.  The draft is rather rich at CB and Worley would have lost his job and become a headache in the locker room.  We got a WR for him, one that could be good--or not.  Worst case scenario--we have a Special teamer and #5 WR--best case scenario, he grabs 50 balls while keeping the deep thirds honest.

If I were Hurney, if Peppers gets away, I would go after Trent Murphy from Washington.  He is 26, now a free agent coming of knee surgery.  Had 9 sacks in 2016 as a rotational DE.  Was a tweener in Washington (DE/OLB) and might want to start.  $10m might get him here.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
