If we cut Burris, Thomas and Jansen how much money does that save us for this year? I would think if a good safety becomes available Burris could possibly get cut.

Burris might not be great, but I'm not sure I like the idea of rolling with what's behind him.

Won't claim to have looked, but from what I understand his contract isn't all that expensive.

Im just thinking to cut him if a better safety becomes available after cuts... As of now, I agree you have to keep him. Im just thinking if we let those 3 go, then you wouldn't hardly have to dip into the 24 million to sign a safety and can roll that over.

Panthers are pretty big on Sam Franklin

Well, let's see what he's got because Burris sucks.

Curious to see how these OL musical chairs end up getting sorted out. I just want us to field a decent OL. I didn't want Darnold, but he's here and we need to give him a fair chance to succeed so that we know if we need to be QB shopping again next off-season.

That's a gamble. 

I'd add that while the team is always looking to win, I don't think this season is what you'd call their "target season" for winning big.

I would think it’s some what expected with a young QB in a new offense. Hell Brady looked rough early in Tampa (relatively speaking). He started off with a QBR of 40.3 against the Saints in week 1, 44 against us in Week 2.

Brady really did look rough the first few weeks of the season.  In that case, I think Arians adjusted the offense more than Brady acclimated though. It looked different to me later in the season and post season.

Hopefully we'll do something similar finding what works well for our players.

    • I like it, but really our future hinges on three very important and expensive things we really can't predict right now. 1. Bryce. He either is or isn't going to be the guy. We won't know until this coming season ends. If he puts us in the 10 wins category and continues to improve (that TD-INT ratio is the big tell there), he won't be cheap. But I don't think he's going to be getting anywhere near the bank breaking amounts, unless we see some kind of Drew Brees-type emergence. 2. Can Icky even come back to play? At all. LT, guard or RT. I sure hope he can and I'd love to see him at guard. If he can come back, though, he's looking at vet pay at whatever position. $10 million a year is probably what we're looking at if he has to change position, if he can still play LT then it gets very steep. We might end up looking at letting him hit to open market. 3. Taylor Moton. Love the guy and he's been the picture perfect Right Tackle. The question is will he want to keep doing this? He's getting long in the tooth but he's still a hell of a scrapper out there. If he wants to go and we really want him to stay, well that costs big bucks. While RTs are supposedly easier to replace than LTs, it's still a tough one for us.  And we won't know anything on this until after training camp and then season end. Dan Morgan's got a lot of stuff in the "still to be decided" bin on his desk.
    • In another post, Snow says about three years before you can properly grade a rookie class.  Sounds about right…
    • And this reiterates why I don’t want a Young contract extension. Please let us find another QB.
