Everson Griffin is a basket case...I dunno if you'd want to risk him.  Would love Xavier but thats most likely not gonna happen. 

Wait, that's the guy who disappeared or went nuts, right? Maybe that cold will do that to a person. Xavier for a 4th, 7th and conditional pick, maybe throw someone to help on the cap, like KALIL (one could dream right)

One guy id target 

Laquon Treadwell

dude has been a total bust there thus far. BUT he was a Norv pick he really wanted them to draft.

Funchess will not be retained.  Treadwell could end up being cut next year.   Offer him a 2020 7th or 6th.  He's a body.  Maybe a change of scenery is good for him and could be a one mans trash another mans treasure

poo i'd be fine with plugging Gaulden in at FS if we could nab Rhodes, move Jackson to nickel, draft dexter lawrence, another edge rusher and a future center/guard. i'm getting erect.

Or sign Kap, draft a kicker and cut him in June, and roll with what's on the roster

Sounds a lot like Kalil. Keep the space trash.

Difference is 

1. He wont require a big contract like Kalil 

2. Wont be looked upon as a immediate starter or role player.  He will be a body, #4-5 WR on the roster

 

And if we're just throwing a 7th or 6th away for him.  We've thrown picks like that for worst players.

And maybe he ends up a fraction of what he was hyped to be coming out.  If not

We throw away a worthless pick

    • I think Morgan has had the right general idea. The problem has been in execution.    Bryce year 1, there were myriad issues from roster talent to coaching and scheme, but the offensive line was particularly glaring. So they went out and  fixed the o-line by signing Hunt and Lewis.  That fix actually seems to have been at least moderately successful.    Last year, pass rush was a major issue. So they invested along the defensive line and at edge. The problem is, they either expended too many resources over correcting—partially because in free agency, when you’re a shitty franchise, you have to overpay to get talent in the door—or they didn’t make the right picks. It’s probably too early to pass judgment on the free agent class or draft picks as it’s only been one game. So we’ve got a small sample size and rookie edges may take time to develop. But if game 1 is any indication, they didn’t solve the problem. 
    • This is getting out of hand again. I swear some of yall just look for reasons to call out the QB, in an extremely thinly vieled "OFFENSIVE CAP HIT" statement.  All of that is offensive line. It was an overreaction to how horrible the guards were in 2023, where guys were starting multiple games that will never take a snap in the NFL again. Speaking of 2023... where did the offensive cap rank then? Where are those WRs playing in the league now? How much are the WRs, TEs and RBs making compared to the rest of the NFL? We have two, 1st round WRs on the roster. And they are the only WRs on the roster picked before the 4th round. One shouldn't have been a first rounder, he's only in his second season, AND he was literally outplayed by an UDFA rookie WR last year - that is currently on IR. The other WR picked before the 4th round has only played one game as a pro.  QB play needs to improve. Absolutely no friggin doubt about that. But, come on. That dude has not been dealt a fair hand, no matter how many ways you try to spin it. Let's hope he figures out how to make chicken salad out of the chicken poo this team has served him his entire time here. Hoping that this org finds another Cam Newton is not really a realistic expectation. 
    • Put Young on any team and they would still have to run a limited scheme for him. Put any talent around him and they still have to carry him.  IDGAF if we trade him inside the NFCS next year. That is how little I fear ever playing him.
