Would love to see Jones and Thor some minutes tonight, but I doubt it happens though. JB will probably just play Hayward, Oubre, Bridges, and Washington more.

So my expectations have gone way down over the past 2 weeks.. and just last night i came to terms with it all.. [tbh, i had to because my mental state was starting to resemble Sundays after a Panthers loss]

anyways, I was originally thinking we could possible get into the Top 6 and maybe win a series.. "Let's trade for Turner to put us over the top!!" - I would say..

but it's obvious now that we aren't 1 piece away.. we are still too young to really compete against good defensive teams and when it gets into games that really matter - aka - playoff atmosphere.. still need to grow

but the future is bright and i am comfortable with that.. for now

We need to do 2 things before anything else. 1. Trade Gordon for an expiring contract, it is clear he is grossly overpaid to contribute what he does. 2. Trade PJ for a big man, his production can be replaced easily.

there is like is a 15% trade kicker in Hayward's deal.. meaning - if we trade him - we have to pay a 15% bonus.. so i doubt Jordan wants to send Hayward out for an expiring contract..

What a dumbass contract!  I know we wanted to get a star, but this guy has never played a whole season.

    • Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4
    • Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.    
    • Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
