Center above everything. If we moved on from Erving it would cost us over 5 million in dead cap and if we move on from both him and Elflein next year it would be ten million in dead cap. Odds are they aren't going anywhere. Bad signings.

Are these numbers accurate? Good gawd. For those guys I would have made them pay me

I think center is the biggest need because Paradis is throwing everything off and everyone has to compensate for it. 

Looks like there are some options available for Center next season. Guess it really depends on how they feel with their current team and if they are going to open up the wallet

Considering how we did with olinemen this year in free agency, I'm not comfortable with this crew throwing contracts that way.

At this point, if Fritts is as good as we hope and frankly need, he can trade away some players for better ones in the draft. Being in the corner where you get ride of quality draft picks and over priced free agents will look like Seatle, without Russ. No cap, no picks and no good options but to start a fire sale. If we can get a 2nd and 5th for a player like Shaq, pull the trigger. Anyone not on a rookie contract should be considered if they are not a great player.

So, I've advocated for signing Mitchell Schwartz to a make good deal, knowing he may not be able to play much, if at all, this season.

Also interesting that Erving has *some* experience playing center. I would say he would at least be a mild improvement in the center position, if not a major one.

I know the bye isn't for several weeks, but I would take the chance on moving Moton to LT, putting Brady at RT with Erving at C and see if something clicks. The time for trying things is now.

Next year, you could have Moton at LT (or a draft pick), Schwartz at RT, Erving at C and draft picks/FA to fill the rest.

    • Down to Carolina and Washington for Ehlers. 
    • Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
    • Have to pair them like this for it to work, imo. Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Walker Ghosty - Chatfield    I'd prefer something different but that's probably what we end up with unless Ghost is traded to one of the 17 teams not on his MNTC.
