Isn’t it a little counterintuitive to talk about building around an o-line and then willing to trade away our only good one?

If we are doing a full on rebuild, then I said I could be persuaded due to a few reasons. Moton will be 28 to start next season. I realize Olinemen can play well into their 30’s and it’d be nice to have a vet on the line. However if you are saying we could move him for a 22 yr old who has just as much upside, then I’d be tempted. However, I do realize it’d be a gamble as nobody we draft is guaranteed to be as good as Moton.

Anyone the runs their mouth and burns bridges the next few weeks.

So Brown looks to be headed that way. CMC is probably untreadable but if he wants to stay at RB his time is up one way or the other.

There is going to be a need to part ways with guys, the situation is getting ugly and headed to worse. Erving, Daley and Elf need to GTFO regardless.

Cmc is basically untradeable at this point. He’s missed what? 22 of 33 possible games the past 2 seasons with that gigantic contract? We might be able to get a mid to low round pick from a team who has a bunch of cap. Maybe. But probably not. I honestly wouldn’t trade anyone else. We need nfl coaching for our young players. That’s the issue.

Moton is the only one off limits. People are so obsessed with “young talent” when it just needs to be talent on the line.

There is a certain team that is having a disappointing season this year in their eyes because they don’t have a running game and I have a feeling they would be more than happy to have a CMC type back…Buffalo.

I would keep Burns, Chinn, Horn and Moron. Anyone else would be fair game and would definitely listen to offers for. Unfortunately though I don't think we would be offered firsts for many of any of of guys because of this year and now piss poor the performances have been coupled with some guys having injury concerns the past couple seasons and large contracts. We may be stuck with what we have and have to make the best out of who we have due to these guys currently having stock that has plummeted and not being able to get firsts for them.

D.J. Moore should be a no-brainer trade in the offseason, IMO. We could get a 1st rounder from a contender in the 20s for sure.

I like him as a player, but our offense is a LONG way from being able to make use of him and any big contract extension would be a luxury we can't afford at this point.

Trade him and take the best OL available with the pick, after taking the best OL available in the top-10.

    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
