All depends on how Mayfield looks this year.

No. No matter how good Baker is his best case scenario is a wild card loss. Lets get a real QB w potential that hasn't already proved he is bad in his first 5 years in the NFL and try to resurrect him. This is why its dumb af to sign Baker, now we won't be able to get studs like Young, Stroud, Richardson, Van Dyke, etc b/c Baker will win us just enough to take us out of position to grab them, have to sign Baker to an expensive contract then after and then have a max ceiling of a wild card loss. This franchise is so dumb and tricks ignorant fans.

If Mayfield plays well enough to get this team (and staff) to the playoffs then he's the real deal.

Dan Morgan is going to sign Dawson Knox (Buffalo) and we will have Tremble behind him. Doubt we draft a TE. I don't think Buffalo will be able to afford Knox.

Have you seen our cap space next year? WE don't have the cap room.  Yes, we need to draft a TE.  TE and DE are priorities.  We have to see about QB based on Baker' season.  Assuming our picks stay the same, we only have four selections: 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th.

Yes, we have a lot of room for cuts and re-structures. I played around with our cap and got us to 50 million relatively easily. What we need the most is a DT next to Brown.

Some of the linemen and signings this year will need to be resigned more than likely. We will more than likely need to resign Baker. Even with Darnold off the books it will take a creative front office to keep our core together. I hope Baker works out so we can build the Defensive line interior.

DTs are a dime a dozen; easy FA fix or mid-round fix.  We have some young DTs we need to see as well before writing them off.   Cuts and restructures kicks the can down the road and messes with subsequent years.  As of now, we are in good shape for 2024, so I don't want to mess that up.  If Rhule is still around, I have no doubt he goes down that path.  Inevitably when he is canned, the next couple of years will be a mess to dig out from under as he goes form season-to-season trying to save his backside with little regard to the long term health of the cap.

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      We won 5 with the worst defense in the history of defenses.  I think free agency and our draft puts us over 6.5.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)

      I think there's a ton of potential in that WR room. But they really are unproven right now. Hopefully they live up to the hype.
