Watching Rashawn Slater be great makes me sad and angry.

New GM is kinda proving why drafting a DB at #8 isn’t the ideal value move….

Need a stud DB? Gilmore cost a 6th to acquire. 

Need a young stud? Henderson cost a 5th to acquire. 

and he has openly voiced how no one is willing to talk about offensive lineman. 
 

*Horn definitely looks awesome.   But just in terms of positional value..corner at 8 might not of been the most ideal decision for a team with so many issues upfront and without a long term answer at QB yet 

Story of this franchise. I hope we improve in this aspect with a new GM...

Well, the starting RG for KC that appears to be manhandling Ed Oliver was available when we took our long snapper. That was TTD one pick of our that was just plain stupid at the time and honestly is even worse now. We took Brown earlier and his knock was his RAS score, well Trey Smith had a 9.8 and was supposed to be a day 2 pick. SMH that we didn’t take a chance on our weakest spot (IOL) since BC looks to potentially be our RT.

Hindsight of Horn being hurt makes Slater hurt more but Slater wasn’t guaranteed and Horn looked solid. LS over Smith was obvious when it happened.

The entire league passed on Trey Smith 6 times.  Why?

He couldn't even practice in college because of all the blood thinners he was on.   

Huddlers still complaining 5 months later about a 6th round pick.

How about Trey Smith who is starting for the chief’s at RG. We passed on him 

He has blood clotting issues that worried some coaches about how long/if he will play. In the 5th/6th it’s a no brainer,  but not much earlier.

      What's wrong with Damien Lewis? He played pretty well last year.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Icege · Posted

      Official NFL Cuts Tracker Deadline for roster cuts is Tuesday, August 26th. At this moment (Friday, August 22nd) the only interesting names I see are... K Caden Davis (BUF) RB Ameer Abdullah (SF) WR Equanimeous St. Brown (SF) WR Donovan Peoples-Jones (NO) LB Khaleke Hudson (TEN) Abdullah, St. Brown, Peoples-Jones I don't exactly think we should cut anybody for but it was just interesting seeing those names. Khaleke Hudson was on the Panthers' practice squad last year I believe and might have even gotten called up? And of course, Caden Davis just because of the question mark at kicker this season for the team.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      I'll say 6/10. I don't know that we learned a whole lot about this team during preseason that we didn't already know. We didn't play the starters enough to really get a feel for what to expect. We had one good drive against the Browns, one 3-and-out and two 3-and-outs against the Texans. That's an extremely small sample size across 3 games regardless of performance. My camp/preseason takeaways: Jalen Coker might be the best WR on this team and is certainly no worse than #2. Nic Scourton is going to be a good player for us. Possibly very good. Bobby Brown was our best free agent addition. Jack Plummer isn't an NFL QB. Not even a practice squad guy. Having anyone other than Canales and Evero call plays was a really stupid and pointless idea. Our depth is largely non-existent, especially on defense. The three areas we actually DO have depth are on the OL, in the WR corp. and at RB. I can't fathom why Dan Morgan didn't do more to upgrade ILB during the offseason. We better hope Lathan Ransom steps up at FS because if he doesn't we have a massive hole. For all the hype surrounding Sanders/Evans, Tommy Tremble is still the best TE on the roster. I'm only slightly less enthusiastic going into the regular season than I was a month ago. I think our starters on offense are solid and we should be pretty good there unless Bryce totally regresses. On defense, we're probably bottom 3rd in the league if 100% healthy and significantly worse than that if injuries become an issue. We badly need at least two of our rookies to become high-level players early (ideally one of the pass rushers + Ransom) and at least 2 of our free agent additions (ideally Moehrig + Bobby Brown) to be significant upgrades over last year. Call me pessimistically optimistic 😆
