after a cursory google search, I can't find a link.  Of course I could be wrong, but I don't know why I'd remember it if it never happened.  I remember that he was respectful in his answer, that there was uncertainty, and why would he want to be a part of that.  Does Tepper coming in fit the timeline?  

Doesn't matter anyway.  He got paid, and we were still in cap hell.

I may not be understanding you correctly. Are you saying Bradberry said this in the last six months regarding his departure from the Panthers?

If I am understanding you correctly, that means he believed as of last March that Marty was on his way out.

No, that wasn't directly said, but a lot of other things were that gives the impression that he's near the bottom. The man played ball with character and integrity. He doesn't deserve to be disrespected. 

FS was (and has always been) on my "need to upgrade" list, that is for sure.

Make Paradis next June cut and then cut Burris

I think we are in a great position with Paradis--if we have a rookie G on either side, it might be worth it to keep him for 1 year---since we are not going to benefit from his cap relief this year anyway--and upgrade C next year.  However, if we can bring in a few G's in free agency, I really like the rookies in the draft (Myers, Humphries, etc) so we could add a T and a C and we'd be suddenly good on the OL.  If we trade for a QB, then we lose the first rounder, but there should be some tackles in the second and maybe a C in the third.  I could live with it.

Yes.  don't hold me to 6 months, but maybe a year.   But I could be thinking of another player.  The sentiment was he knew there was a shakeup coming and that it was an uncertainty that he didn't want to commit to.

Well, if he saw a shakeup coming back in March, I'd say his insight was pretty good.

We have needed safeties of some form or fashion ever since John Fox walked into the building.  Hopefully Rhule puts a higher value on them.

Basically since the first set of Ss we had as a team we have been in need of S lol.

Mike Minter wasn't the best S ever but fug man compared to the poo stains we've had he may as well be a HoFer. Chris Harris did well with us for a split minute. I mean a Harris Minter combo would be good if we ever coulda had that.

A lot of the newbs may not even know we had a legit fugin FS at one time. I think he moved to SS later on when he got older.

Not a fan either, but I respected the fact that Boston never took the late season for granted. He was one of the only players in 2019 to give 100% effort late season. Same for last year, he payed his best late season too. Hernaiy was about the only GM to give him big safety money, have fun in washington Tre..

    • I appreciate the honesty in your posts--I am not sure Canales is rusing(?) because I don't think we are good enough yet to draft players for depth on day 1.  I do think we are in limbo, fwiw.  At 19, I think you are drafting second rounders in the first.
    • We are in a unique situation here. Just my opinion. Three things: Moton’s playing health has been gradually declining as he is aging, while his contract is a drag on the payroll.  Something will give with him sooner than later but I think 2026 could be it.  So.. need a right tackle by 2027. At the latest.    Icky’s individual situation is unique as well. They would have had an extension done by now if not for the injury. We only have him for this year. With no assurance he will ever be the same player.  It would be reckless just to assume. Now we have Walker for one year. And that is a major relief. Maybe he is the answer, but the team that knows him best let him go and it was cheap for us to sign him. So how much did they value him?    We look to be needing two tackles by 2027.  And have poo for depth this year as well. So anyway we could draft a guy for 2027 RT and groom him this year, and see how Icky does, and act as needed in 2027. Spread out filling the two holes over 2 years.    Then I remember, hey if Bryce doesn’t get a Lot more consistent do they extend him? Hoping not, if he isn’t really good.    So then we are looking at the 2027 draft which people say is gonna be loaded with QBs. If we need a LT and a QB what is the pick gonna get spent on?   Taking into account the recovery success rates cited here on the Icky surgery, you might want to plan for him to not be the same player. rather than assume he will be and get caught with your pants down.  It is a tough situation.    And factor in that it is critically important to protect this QB, always, but especially this year where it is said to be make or break. And how you might feel about that.    All of it points to a real possibility that these things converge in the negative, like Bruce sucks and Icky is not the same. In that case if you want to be assured of getting LT secured, the only place you can do that through the draft could be very well be 2026 1st round.     For me, I would like to err on the side of caution.  Cover for these outcomes. It wouldn’t be fun. Added benefit is if we do have a tackle go down this year we will have a guy there. Because I don’t know what we have now.  
    • I agree. In a perfect world I wouldn’t want to draft another WR, but in this draft it’s fine based on the value of who will be there at #19.  All of the top tier guys worth pick #19 at other positions of need will be long gone. Only exception is Dillon Thieneman, but he’s almost a shoe in for the Vikings as the Harrison Smith replacement. Some posters on here want to draft an OT just to check a box without realizing the concerns and risk that comes along with said player. Sounds like XL to me… desperately drafting need… KC is a pretty safe player.  Produced all 3 years in college and last year in the SEC vs a lot of top corners in this years draft. He single handily dropped the South Carolina CB Brandon Cisse’s draft stock with how bad he abused him.   Sometimes it’s best to try and hit a double instead of going for the home run. This draft screams “go for the double”. Esp in the first.
