Darnold might be the next one out the door

It's weird how some posters think it's utterly impossible to do both. We're gonna make a lot of moves this off-season. Moton and Christensen may prove to be the answers at OT. If we're lucky, Brown will prove to be the answer at RG. If everything goes to plan, we could only be needing a LG and. C. It's a lot easier to fill holes on the interior OL than at OT, though I will admit that our free agent choices this off-season leave me pretty concerned about our ability to evaluate FA OL.

Interior OL is easier to find than T's....I mean it's the reason failed T's often move inside. Should be able to get some Gs so long as we actually bring some more in.

Kev laid it out for us.  Its all right there.  Through free agency and late round picks.  Its brilliant.

 

Meanwhile he cannot point to one top 10 line in the NFL that is built this way

We tried that this offseason and we have the worst interior OL in the league.

Thats how we ended up with Elf, Paradis, and Miller in FA and Daley in the draft because interior OL is so easy to find.

From what we've seen so far, Tepper doesn't interfere in football.  "Tepper wants Watson and will trade away the team for him".  "Tepper wants Justin Fields".  I've seen Tepper wanting and demanding alot of things in but not getting any of them.  I call bs on these articles and I'll believe it when I see it.

Tepper isn't forcing the staff to do anything.  More likely, Rhule or Fitt is fired before he forces a player on them.

I was gonna comment on something like that earlier but that was before this thread went way off the rails.

Hey, he's not called @ImaginaryKevfor nothing. If you don't agree with him, you get the full extent of his wraith. lol It's been a long time since someone got so worked up when folks didn't like their plan.

 

If there is a QB out there that can function behind this line. We need to go get him. As long as it is with a draft pick, or via a trade using late round picks. This line is atroscious.

Yea if Christenson can grow and he didn't poo the bed in his first start vs a competent DL he seems like he could work out which would be just fine as we can draft a C with a higher pick and get some FA/lower draft pick G's. I think we could resolve the OL this offseason so long as Christensen can hold up.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
