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.

      Yeah, Franklin was a good ST guy that could fill in at safety IN AN EMERGENCY. But he was still better than Scott, IMO.

      I get that, but given his college production, his actual skill set, and what he's shown in camp, he really just seems like the only way he doesn't at least play to his floor is if he can't stay healthy or he just gets a huge head and stops putting in the effort, the latter of which I don't see happening. So hopefully he stays healthy (knock on wood), but there's unfortunately no way of predicting health, you can really only predict a player not able to stay healthy if they already had problems doing so in college.

      Austin named starting center

      By Waldo · Posted

      In it self no it's not a bad thing. It becomes an issue when they brought back Austin to play on IR most of the season again. That's not a knock on Mays but the situation. It's BC at LG all over. But on the flip side that's how they were forced to go out and sign a good LG the next year.  All of the talk and hope of improvement comes down to guys like Mays taking that step. There is something developmentally going on that Im not impressed with going on with this team. Austin and Dalton were 2 guys they obviously can't lean on at this point and yet both are still here taking up space.
