So then, we’ve got a WR corps to build. What do y’all got?

In the draft, Tillman, AT Perry look like good outside WRs. Downs would be a solid get too.

In FA, we've been linked to Hardman and Campbell. Chark is out there, as well as Jourdan Rodrique mentioning Van Jefferson as a potential trade target. Van has ties to both Brown and WR coach Jefferson. 

I'd also bring in a TE like Moreau and draft the BPA TE at 39.

I'm not freaking out this year because I think the plan is clear now to let '23 be the "reset" year. New coaches, rookie QB and dead cap to fall off. Clean up the mistakes in '23 and walk into '24 with a clean sheet. 

No need plunking down cash on older vets like Nuke and OBJ at their respective ages. 

Hardman is 24 years old.....Campbell is 25.....Jefferson is 26. 

Focus on 2024. We will have a boatload of cash available to be key players in FA. Draft smart this year and don't weigh ourselves down.

Yeah I just know he was battling injuries all season.

My ideal scenario would be a slight trade down R2 to like 42-50.  

Gives us the capital to land a Hyatt/Downs + LaPorta/Kraft combo.  Think something along those lines would be awesome for a young gun. 

Wouldn't take the idea of an EDGE in R2 out of the question with Felix and the Northwestern kid, but, man, could be good stuff.

Love Tyler Scott and Rashee Rice as well.

Hyatt is a good deep threat, but the funny thing is Tillman was WR1 for UT before the season started. He got injured and Hyatt was a welcomed surprise. I wonder where Tillman is projected…

Yeah Tillman is being kind of slept on.  Great size, physical, sneaky fast, hands catcher/ball fighter.  

I like the Michael Pittman comp that NFL.com has.  Was heavily hyped going into the season.  Could be a great pick in R4.

Odell, d hop nor any other older vet are going to want to come here to play with a rookie qb.

 unless they’re in fear of being out the league there’s not a vet I can see wanting to play here, maybe we can grab cooks from the Texans? But I’m not sure if they’re quarrel was because of playing time or that they sucked, maybe both.

young fa WRs the staff think they can develop and trust this scouting staff can nail a wr pick, i like a choice of slayton, mecole or meyers if it’s not too pricey

It’s a bad FA group, okay draft. More than a few available for trade. 

What are y’all’s idea to build a group for Young/Stroud?

Hyatt, Josh Downs, Rashee Rice, Tyler Scott, Xavier Tillman, Andre Iosivas will some names to know.

Maybe Nuke becomes a target?

Who else could be had?

Ideas plz

 

 

Take the best WR or TE at 39, Chark in FA. Aside from that I'm guessing our trade value for Corral just dropped even more which sucks

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
