Don't totally gut this team

if a one dimensional safety like Jamal adams can net two 1’s, a 3, and a player then the baseline starting point for an elite pass rusher is three 1’s

then again Seattle has always been willing to overpay and carelessly throw away draft picks 

good thing we don’t have anyone from that school of thought running our department

He's 25. So you're thinking this team's window of winning is 5-10 years out?

If they hit it on the QB and Coach I think they are at least 3 years out before competing for the playoffs. DJ more will be 28 on a contract year. They are at least 5 years away in my opinion from being in contention by for a super bowl, again if they get it right on the QB and coach. The question is, do you want To pay DJ Moore big money at 29 on his third contract right around when the team is finally making that jump.

i can be sold on keeping him. I like him a lot. I just think it’s debatable if it’s more prudent to see if you can get someone to overpay and draft an elite WR who is on the same schedule as your QB.

Lol not at all. The Eagles won the SB in 2018, blew it up after 2019, and went back to the playoffs in 2021 and are SB contenders in 2022. Playoffs in year 2 of a rookie HC/QB regime and contention in year 3 is absolutely doable provided you get those two right.

Damn this really broke y’all’s brains.

moore should be off the table and I don’t care how old he’s gonna be when we “can compete.” The new rookie qb needs a reliable receiver from day 1 and dj is reliable and is not injury prone. 

Moore is probably off the cap because of the cap implications and because there aren't going to be many teams that are interested in that contract.

If I had even the slightest bit of confidence in team management and ownership, I'd be looking at a glass half full.

Instead I'm looking at a poorly lidded sippy cup knocked onto the good carpet and grape juice is staining the hell out of the rug. 

None of these guys were ready for the job they have been given.

Veteran WRs and Rookie QBs don't mix well. IE Smitty and Newton.   Better examples are of Rookie WRs and Rookie QBs jelling like Burrow and Chase or Tua and Waddle.  Before you mention Diggs/Allen or Hopkins/Murray.....make sure you recognize Moore isn't even close to these WR1s.

    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
