Optimistic or pessimistic?

im not quite sure what better moves they could have made on defense. 

The Bouye move is going to depend on contract. We're going into next season relying on a lot of players with significant injury histories. That usually ends up predictably. Bouye is coming off of both an injury and a down season while he was on the juice. That's a big red flag. I hope the deal is cheap. Worthwhile gamble if it is.

Reddick played all 16 games last season, and has never missed a game in 4 seasons. 

Denzel Perryman.....Reddick has never missed a game in his pro career.

also who cares about money? the cap isn't real

The Reddick signing was great. The rest suspect at best

I really liked the Morgan Fox signing as well, but like you said the rest of them are going to be largely dependent on if these guys can stay healthy/perform at a level they were at or close to before. I'm cautiously optimistic but not ready to start celebrating quite yet.

Whitehead was a miss but we had quite of few additions that surprised us.  I hope we that these additions were not just names but players we targeted. 

I've always been an optimistic person.  Fitterer and Rhule hopefully have a plan and these players pan out.

Defensively I think we have added some good pieces.

The draft I still think will be mostly on offense but not completely especially in the latter rounds.

Every year I go in hoping we will be competitive and win and make the playoffs.

Ya never know.

Fox looks positive, not nearly as sexy as Reddick but positive. 

The rest is suspect to normal cheap swings at any positives. Still a lot of holes if you do not go by the warm body theory of management.

TE is going to be upgraded some, but we still do not have that weapon we are used to. 

[gasps]   Are you kidding me?  We have the TE position well in hand.  “Darnold to Dan Arnold” sounds beautiful, melodious, almost poetic.  It is a thing of beauty.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
