Fitterer on potential contract extension’s

DJ is the first...

I'm thinking the second player is Burns or possibly Robby.  As I stated elsewhere, iI think if we extend Robby, it would be ideal nc then his contract should expire by the time TMJ's ready for his extension.

But, it would be super smart to get Brian locked up asap.  I've always felt if the player/agent are willing, it's best to sign them to an extension in the penultimate year of their rookie contract, rather than wait for the last year.

It would be amazing to lock in Burns for an extra 3 or so years before he explodes this season.

It’s Donte Jackson 

Thats what I was thinking.  He was solid last year, he just couldn’t stay healthy with his toe problem.  Fitty’s Seattle history leads credence to the idea he prioritizes DBs.  Donte and DJ (hopefully with DJ being the one close to being done) are the two he’s talking about IMO.  We still have Burns for 2 years after this on a rookie deal.

Wow. I was right.  Kind of...   I'm thinking he means after DJ, though, right?

Yeah, I edited it after I posted that to include that part.  I agree.  Especially with Burns on the edge of superstardom and being a edge rusher..

  He's gonna be pricey.  I'd like to try to strike early and possibly get a bit of a hometown discount if we could.  From how heavily his brother is invested in him being here, I know we'll have him long-term, I think it's just a matter of when and how much.

While I agree with his background lending itself to having a propensity for CBs, Donte doesn't fit the profile of the guys they drafted and retained.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
