He lived in Washington state for 2 years..... he was in california the majority of his life... He has lived in Charlotte for 8 years..

Why would he go to Seattle? 

I was a little curious about that as well. Pretty sure he calls Sacramento home and returns there in the offseason.

DE, Ioannidis - Y/N
QB, Darnold - Y/N
C, Bozeman - Y/N
RB, Foreman - Y/N
LS, Jansen - Y/N
K, Pineiro - Y/N

Under Wilks, I would have said all but Ioannidis could get new contracts.. now under Reich it might be different..

Also, reworking Shaq might be done and he might just be cut.. I don't know. What u think?

No

Yes

Yes (and important to resign with how good the oline looked with him in the lineup)

If cheap

Sure why not

Open competition with Zane Gonzalez

Restructure Shaq. Outright cutting Shaq is tough with how terrible our LB core is outside of Luvu. We would probably have to draft a MLB day 2 in the draft to replace him or sign a FA, which I don't want to do if we are paying dead cap with cutting Shaq.

 

In the draft, we need weapons. Another receiver opposite DJ (preferably 1 that is tall) and a TE are badly needed. Slide TMJ into the slot and let him rotate with Shi Smith & Shenault. Shenault we can use in wildcat and motion sweep passes (like we did this year). Cut the rest of the bum WRs we have.

On defense (assuming we are 4-3), another edge and interior dlineman are a must (unless we sign a FA). It wouldn't hurt to upgrade corner, but I think that has to be a lower priority for us because every other position on D is so much worse. Slide Chinn into that hybrid LB/SS role and let him blitz or cover opposing RBs/TEs, where he is at his best.

For the draft, it ideally looks something like this: QB (trade to 5 or 6 if Young/Stroud there and give up 9, 39, 132) and then DE, WR, TE, DI, LB, RB/CB with the rest of the picks (hopefully DE earlier than the rest).

If we can't go QB, if we could trade down and manage to get WR, TE, and DE in the first 39ish picks (something like Quentin Johnson/Smith-Njigba, Kincaid/Musgrove, Ojulari/McDonald IV), that would be great and we can just wait until next year for a QB.

Yeah let’s cut a performing, dependable player and create a giant hole on a very important position on a shaky defense. 
 

doofus. 

If you think arm tackle shaq is “performing and dependable” you’ve prob been watching the jags. And you don’t need to sign your work we all know you’re a doofus 😘

Ioannidis, Darnold, Jansen are gone. Possibly Pineiro if Reich has a kicker he wants available.

Foreman's tape is gonna look good. Allows Reich to solely focus on QB because Foreman is good enough to hold the position down for another year. Bozeman is interesting but I think they'll keep him and it'll be an evaluation year for Reich on him. Thompson is up in the air. Luvu is the one LB that's a must, the rest are fairly underwhelming

I’m also good with Darnold back as a backup, but I think Reich may want to go draft pick - Corral - Eason, or draft pick - Eason - Corral. 

With a new system being installed it could be Brissett, theres a handful of other backup level vets that could probably help get the younger guys up to speed at least. I imagine we'll have 4 Qb's for OTA's at least

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
