Yall can keep Taysom Hill.

The only reason I mentioned Taysom is because, SP told M Loomis, “He wanted to take Taysom Hill with him.”

not sure why we would not want him.  Just because he played for the hated arch rival, doesn’t make him a bad player.  I am not saying we would want Taysom Hill.  I am saying he would be an excellent play if he works with SP.  I am not sure I would kick him off the football field.

I feel like "settling" is an appropriate word for how I would feel if we hire Steve Wilks. He's fine, but he ain't winning any championships.

it just feels like the 10-7, 6-11, 9-8, 4-13 road ahead would be set in stone for us

 I am not a fan of giving division rivals extremely high draft picks for a their former coach. George Siefert comes to mind and we didn't have to give up high draft picks for him.  Personally, if feels like a Sean Payton money grab for him.  That's why I think he'll go to Denver .  Walton has deep pockets as well. Denver  Division  is tougher than our NFC South currently. But I don't think he cares. It's about a big pay day.

    • BPA comes with the caveat of positional value and roster need included. Never let the latter two completely overwhelm the first, however. Our FO seems to lean heavily into "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE POTENTIALZ!!!" as a fourth category and often it seems as the #1 overall pursuit. With as many needs as this roster has, I am not going to get upset over a real roster upgrade at WR versus some reach at EDGE or whatever other extreme needs we have. Overall, I want to see the roster get better. There is far, far, FAR more than one offseason of work left to get this roster into the top 10-12 in the NFL. That should be the goal. 
    • I would say we are more likely to get smoked by Tampa, blast Seattle and then perplexingly lose to Tampa again. 
    • In general, Dave Canales tends to target his TE's the least frequently of any position group(WR/RB/TE) during his three years of running an NFL offense.  However, if you notice this percentage has crept up over time. 2025 is the first year that TE has eclipsed RB in target percentage. Production has also gone up in 2025. This is a percentage of total output in each category. Canales has always used a very TE heavy offense. In fact, on average his offensive formations are 2 or 3 TE sets roughly 80% of all offensive formations. So, the question may be, with this uptick in total TE output, could an elite or top tier TE make a significant impact? I believe there is some evidence this may be the case. Here are a look at TE snaps and Cade Otten specifically. These are the snap percentages for all rostered TE's in every Dave Canales offense. The bolded cell is Cade Otten's whopping 96.46% of total snap counts in the single year he was in the Dave Canales offense in Tampa. This was overwhelmingly his career high. His production was higher with less utilization in 2024, however.    In conclusion, while I don't anticipate ever seeing a top 5 producing/Pro Bowl caliber TE performance in a Dave Canales offense, there does appear to be some evidence that an actual upgrade in our TE room would actually lead to increasing overall offensive efficiency. I think Otten's utilization rate does indicate that the splitting of time between our relatively even TE group would cede significant snaps if a far superior option were available. I believe this is an area we could(and should have this past offseason/draft) made a more concerted effort to get a dynamic TE threat, after the apparent failure that J. Sanders appears to have been.
