Before the draft, we address free agency

I'll be interested on how we play TE/WR.

I think we probably become a player for one of these WR trades. Allen Robinson from the Rams for example knows Brown well and can be had relatively cheap with the Rams eating a large chunk of his deal. Would be a good outside vet presence. Hopkins and Sutton and i'm sure a few more will have their tires kicked.

I think the TE FA class probably gets its value depressed by the rookie draft which could be a boon for us, but also would we prefer to just draft that guy at 39? Would be nice to get Shultz on a more friendly deal if people decide to wait for the rookie draft before committing. He may just wait though

My one worry is overspending on this free agent WR class. I think Paris Campbell probably is a pretty clear fit knowing Reich's offense and how much he has expressed his love for Frank and he feels like he'll be cheap. I would love to make a run for Jakobi Meyers but he probably gets overpaid due to the quality of this class.

Overall I think we could easily fit in a nice Vet receiver, a TE, some depth before the draft to make this an appealing year one spot for CJ or Bryce. Glad we know we need to do this before FA Starts.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
